GS is there just for the damage and cool factor.
Uh huh hmmm hmmmm….. what else do you need ?
This is a problem caused by the fact that all influence and guild upgrades are earned per server. Many people seems to think it ain’t a problem at all. But as you have just noticed it is. It’s a problem when guild moves from one server to another or as in our case, guild has members on several servers. Our guild has members on 7 servers, meaning that we have to make same upgrades and earn influence for them in 7 worlds. Some have asked why do we have members on so many worlds? There are many reason, one them being the fact that our primary servers are already full, so some of our new members can’t transfer to those worlds… some doesn’t even want to, but it’s really unfair that the benefits guild has to offer depends on what server the player happens to be in…..
While there are many more important and severe issues with guilds around atm, I would like to point out a serious problem that most guilds currently has. The problem I am concerned of is that GUILD influence gained is per WORLD. It’s simply ridiculous. Let me me explain why.
First of all, we are old guild, having our roots in time before GW1 was launched. So, we already had members from all over the world having accounts on EU and NA servers alike before GW2 went online. After a long discussion before game lauch, we decided to split over 2 servers, one in NA, the other in EU. However, as we are recruiting mostly from forums outside of GW2, our new members comes from different servers with slim chance of already being on those chosen serverS(!) . Also some of our members were not able to get in either of our preferred world at launch. Some have friends on some other servers and guilds and therefore selected those worlds as home world themselves.
Because all of this, we currently has members on 7 different worlds and I am afraid that the number will increase when new members join our guild. To me it’s unfair to them that depending on what server they are the guild benefits varies from all to nothing. It’s equally unfair to ask them to come at our home server if they are not going To play WvWvW with us. Especially after world transfer stops being free.
Also I ( and many other in our guild ) bought Digital Deluxe version and I ( we all ) wish all my guildies would benefit from it – which is impossible as now.
PLEASE ANET – FIX THIS PROBLEM ASAP.
