WvW Rank Account Bound

in WvW

When Anet will put the rank wvw rank account bound, the new rank will be the sum of that of all the characters or the highest one?

[For exemple: if I have 3 characts, 1 with 75, 2 with 75 and 3 with 20, my new wvw rank will be 170 (75+75+20) or 75?]

From what I was told earlier today on TS

All of your characters will have 162 rank points (75+71*+16*) they can each assign as you see fit to do so.

  • The first 4 ranks equal 5,000 points and so you have to count them as one rank when adding them to the other ranks.

My EU accounts are the only ones being affected and are stuck at either loading screen or load in but then immediately get stuck.

Nightcapping is an issue

Military tactics are used in WvWvW as most would expect. As such they are adapted to real life and implemented into the game. Thus, people will be in game at certain times, prime time or not, and play in shifts to cover all the hours of the day. Those are the tactics one would expect to guard or raid their areas.

Something else to remember we do not all work in the mornings (8am-5pm) and play at night. Some work odd hours, go to school in the evenings and play when they can. Those people in particular make up a large part of what you call “Night cappers” when in fact they just happen to be playing when they can and not with everyone else during so called “prime time”.

Also, The only time I have heard of a “cease fire” during a world war was during xmas in 1914, just a little tidbit to ponder.

Lag spikes and disconnection.

We have also been getting disconnected at random times for the last week or so. I even went and replaced the router and modem with new ones for the weekend event last Thursday.

Managed to barely finish the finale event and then I got d/c’d 10 mins later. Sometimes both of us get d/c’d and sometimes only one of us.

Ok apparently that thread was removed, oh well.

Make Commander Account Wide

I understand it is fairly easy to get a guild to contribute some coin and get the book with ease.

My question is this.

Why is it not account wide?

You have made this feature available but why do you limit it to only working on 1 character?

Why not (up the cost if need be to 200-250g and) make it account wide? As it stands all commanders are forced to only play one character in WvW and I’m sure most would get bored or interested in testing another profession or race in WvW and still be able to utilize the Commander rank and all the perks.

There was mention of this 2 years ago as an ongoing project in the works.

There is another thread about adding the ability to see “unrepresented guild” chat. I see this as an additional feature that should be implemented as well.

There are a great many thing “in the works” at the moment but would like to ask this.

When will Alliances be available in game?

There are several guilds on each server that have teamed up to work together in WvW as one would expect. The issue is not everyone can get on a voip or afford a large client like a TS3 or vent server with monthly fees. Even using “/Team” or “/Map” channels can be confusing when there are multiple operations going on. What if we need reinforcements, being able to access a chat channel that reaches all guilds in said alliance would be beneficial to all.

I truly believe that a great many guild would benefit and see this as a useful tool for all aspects of the game.

Getting more reports that this is a EU server issue. Can anyone else confirm?
