Annoyance, love. I like playing PvE without being bothered by other people or their requests to duel if it’s optional. Keep PvE and PvP separate, thank you very much.
There’s too many advantages to dueling, that duel requests is a tiny issue in comparison. Besides, Anet can always add a “block all requests” options. ;D Besides, it’s more immersive if there’s pvp in pve, as long as it’s not annoying, than a complete, 100% division.
I don’t see any advantage at all to dueling. None. I can’t even imagine any reason that would make having a dueling option be an “advantage” for anything.
Personally I don’t care as long as there is a “block requests” option.
I can think of one advantage
It’s fun
which is the point of games
What’s the advantage of farming your little PvE hearts off for nifty looking skins? or reaching the end of a jumping puzzle for crap rewards? fun maybe?
Open world PvP is a complete different experience from the mists arenas. We want to capture that. That’s why we just don’t go to the mists or WvW, as some of you are telling us to. With MMOs out like Archeage, with an amazing open world PvP system. it makes WvW look like just a huge zerg arena. Players who want open world PvP in PvE settings do not feel satisfied with WvW because in the end its just a bigger version of fight for the circle to get points.
There are ways of controlling to much trolling of people just trying to get quests done. Adding in a punishment for attacking players
or the ever so popular, OP legendary guards that patrol.
I’m not saying PvP should be added to every zone. This would be a huge mistake, especially in leveling zones.
open world PvP should always be an endgame that players get to look forward to. The zerg domination arena does not fulfil that endgame.
PvP zones would need to be brand new zones, maybe if we ever get a new continent expansion. Anet already has this set up perfectly with Cantha and the war between the factions that was going on in gw1 (no clue where they stand in gw2 time period)
I may be a little bias from playing to much Archeage, but I know how popular open world PvP is and the excitement to gameplay it brings.
