Guild Wars 2

Are there any changes planned to make PvP-Rewards more appealing? Right now I see no reason to do the daily anymore, nor play any tournaments because I do not feel rewarded at all. Glory and rank points are not a reward. Neither are glory boosters and Orbs/Crystals/Slivers.

Why did you have to remove paid tournaments and gem rewards? The old three round paid tournaments were worth playing because they were rewarding. You were able to earn decent gem rewards, Qualification points and paid chests, which were kinda exclusive.
Now everbody runs around in Orrian armor, which was impressive some time ago, but now it feels meh. Instead I have to wear the stuff I get from tiger tokens to show how much I grinded PvP. And most of it doesnt look good, except of the fiery gladius ofc :P

Now before anyone tells me to stop playing if it’s only for the rewards and not for fun: Showing off my accomplishments is fun for me. So why is there nothing to show? Why is there no rating, no rank that only increases by winning like the old HA or champ titles in GW1 (I am aware of the champion titles, but those are a joke).

Why is there no way to earn gold with something equal to the HoH chest in GW1? I mean you could spawn a chest at the end of the three round tournament with rare/exotic drop rates. It would also get more people to play PvP and maybe make three round tournaments more challenging instead of a semi-afk fragfest.

tldr: Rewards are crap, improve them, allow PvP players to earn gold/gems
oh and finally add rating ppl can see.

Boomstin.3460:

You are only allowed to get good loot in Fotm

There is good loot in FOTM? All I get is green Armageddon stuff, regardless of the level. And when I get an exotic it’s account bound.

Getting 1 or 2 lodestones every 20th event was just too rewarding, dont forget that you get awesome blue and sometimes green drops from the chest.

Couldnt agree more with Bloodbird.

Finally bring back the Hall of Heroes and /fame emotes. The emotes are in the game already, but only on stupid 30 min finishers. Where is the problem with putting them on an emote with a cooldown so its not beeing spammed too much.
Heroes Ascent might not work like in GW1 anymore, but i think some gamemodes like relic run could be fun with the new battle system GW2 features. You guys might even keep the capture points stuff you did on Forgotten Shrines. Heck, I’d even take killcount if I had to.

Just give the people who actually want to play PvP and not PvDoor something. 4 (well actually 3) maps and 1 gamemode arent enough at all. We need the Hall of Heroes, we need a world announcement for ppl who win there, we need /fame, we need GvG, a guild ladder and guild halls. Or at least something like that. If you really wanna go into Esports with this game you need something to create competition first.

But I dont expect we will get anything like that on Nov 15.
What we will get is:
- A new PvE Area (well thats fine, I’m kinda fed up with Orr)
- New overpriced recipies for the most annoying thing in the game: The Mystic Forge
- More PvE Stuff ppl need to grind for
- One new PvP mode (if you guys are really going to bring this Reapers Rumble thing you made for Halloween just scratch it. Seriously, just dont do it, even Raid on the Capricorn is more fun than that.)

Just my thoughts on this.

Just remove it from spvp and put back the old beta glory vendors where you could choose what you want.
Make it 5k glory per armor piece if you have to, I don’t care, just let me choose myself and not some stupid RNG. The PvE Mystic Forge is annoying as it is, why do force us to use this thing in PvP too? It’s just cosmetic gear after all. And having like 12 vendors who only sell bronze/silver/gold chests plus salvage kits looks kinda rediculous.

Removing the Mystic Forge still wouldn’t make sPvP good in any way, but it would make it less a pain in the kitten

Oh, and finally bring back the Rifts to GW2.
