Guild Wars 2

I think it would work well if we put up how many gems we want, and it calculates the gold for us. Or we put how many gems we have and it calculates how much gold we will get. Just let us enter our own amounts and I think everyone’s happy.

I think it would be nice to have Conversion History back too.

Nike.2631:

I tend to think this falls under quality of life for the smaller guilds that can’t participate in the Guild missions.

Goal
Close the gap between the rewards available to large guilds and smaller family guilds by opening up a slow but achievable alternative means of earning guild commendations through open-world play.

Proposal Overview
Players now receive 1 guild commendation for every 800 influence they earn through events.

Proposal
Each character gains a counter on the guild page that tracks how much influence they have earned by participating in events. Each time this counter reaches 800 or more, 800 is subtracted from the counter (so overflow caries over) and that character receives 1 guild commendation. This counter tracks this contribution regardless of which guild you were representing at the time, to avoid penalizing players who have obligations to more than one guild. 800 was chosen to be a substantial number without triggering the sense of ‘endless grind’ that a four-digit threshold might provoke.

Reputation bought with coin from the Guild promoters does not advance this counter – you must adventure to earn. This also avoid creating a hard gold-to-commendations relationship and turning the guild vendors into just another playground for the super-wealthy.

Potential Risks
UI work and establishing a properly incrementing counter will require coding time. Rewards from guild vendors will no longer be the exclusive province of larger guilds (I see this as a plus, others… maybe not).

As someone in a really small Guild, I really hope they do add something like this.
