Guild Wars 2

As a newer player I asked how to get armor for cheap. WvW badges was one thing I was told (as I joined a WvW guild), but to be careful what I put on it because I can’t get it back easily with my lack of gold and time to farm gold. It did seem weird since I can salvage just about anything else, even some accountbound items. The person above who brought up the Karma comparison is correct; those can’t be salvaged, but they can at least be forged. I haven’t tried forging the badge armor, but it sounded like that can’t be done either? It is a problem, or rather seemed like it was an after thought and never finished in the idea of how WvW badge items work compared to what you can do with other items, including karma.

Hello anyone who is reading,

I while ago a dev brought up this up as an idea, I believe, to get rid of servers and have guilds make alliances once again like in GW1. I believe this would benefit WvW in all tiers, PvP, PvE, and PVX guilds and players if it does happen.
Was this just an idea that was voiced by a dev and not happening or an idea in the making still?
I believe it was around the time of megaservers if that helps anyone’s memory.

and the people who bought this are supposed to log in and submit a ticket if they can’t log in how. . . ?

I really have to disagree with those time zones.
NA has 8 hours
EU has 5
SEA has 7
OCX has 4
How is that at all fair? Every time zone has the same 24 hours, same “evening” to play as their prime..it should be 24/4 which is 6 hours each divided early and late with 3 hours each.
FOR EXAMPLE: Yes, places like the USA have 4 time zones for “NA”. Go by Pacific then as the “main” time zone..or a middle one like Central or Mountain. Eastern is early NA, Pacific is late NA
You could pose the argument we’re on NA servers, should have the most people in that time zone. True, but the most people in the time zone also work, so the majority cannot get on for those extra hours except weekends which is family time for many people except the (later) evening, which is prime time.

Flag time zones and when WXP is gained by all means, but if it’s based by those time zones, I completely disagree.
I know that is not the main point of your post, and I halfways apologize for tearing it a part a bit, but it does serve a significance if that is the schedule you want times based off of.

I disagree with merging servers. Why can’t the T1 servers be dispersed to the lower tiers? Server pride is something I know TC is about, do you not think those who DO go out WvW’ing in lower tiers have that too? It’s still their home server they fight for.

Why not make it free? If you want people to move, they will for free. Half price will get some, but still cause casual or “once or twice a week” players to still have to grind in time they don’t have for the game outside of life. It splits guilds if part move and some don’t.
I’m not a fan of servers buying others either which is what that would encourage for those who can’t grind for any amount of gems.

Yes we have megaservers now, but the server population still counts towards PvE players home to servers. You can and did make a post from the WvW player side, but it’s invalid if you disregard PvErs and want them to rework how the population is soley based on WvW.

Any word on the upcoming alliances rumored about that will also help server population balance especially in WvW playing with more people against new people??
