Guild Wars 2

Hello.

I’ve been playing Guild Wars since the release of Nightfall and one of the aspects of the game I’ve loved ever since are the (often funny, punny) names of the various bosses. When I came to Guild Wars 2, one of the very few things that disappointed me (a little, game be awesome bro) was finding most boss-type enemies in the open world simply named Champion x, etc. In dungeons this was much less the case, but I reckon seeing a champion in the dungeons simply named Champion x every now and then.

I don’t know if this is a temporary thing, in which case I would fully understand, or that there are no plans at all of giving those Champion and Legendary-type enemies a unique name.

Prior to the release of Eye of the North, I remember a Name-a-Boss contest being held to name the bosses by the community. Maybe this would be a fitting idea to name the bosses in the current open world? I find it much more realistic and fun to save a village from a big foe named [Bad Guy McAwesome] than from a fella named “Champion Jotun”.

I don’t know how the rest of the community thinks of it, input is always welcome.

Keep up the great work!

Good thing I used this excellent forum’s search function first, as I wanted to post precisely this.
