Guild Wars 2

That is completely possible. Spec’d the right way a Thief can generate crazy amounts of damage using Back Stab. It has been tested and posted to youtube even during the BWEs. Granted the Thief is a major glass cannon with the build but max damage and quick fights are the goal.

You get kicked from the server if you lay dead (or afk) for too long. Not sure how long before you receive the message but it is under 10 minutes. I was dead in front of a keep for a while waiting for my server to push back and thus rez me so I wouldn’t have to trek the 5-10 minutes back. I received a message stating I had 60 seconds to resume fighting or be kicked from the server.

The POV is really bad as well when your dead so I didn’t really see this as an issue.

Xp received is based on your level. When you get to higher levels you get a lot more Xp. At 70 I was receiving 340 per gathering attempt and 150+ for kills. 14k for taking the garrison. Xp like everything else in GW2 scales with your level.

Agreed that WvW should have it’s own completion achievement separate from PvE. I understand why they added vistas, POI and Skill challenges in WvW but to make it mandatory for the World Map completion seems like a bad decision. I didn’t have much trouble in WvW getting all the points but that was because my server was completely dominate. If your server isn’t very good at WvW then it would become a major issue as the only way to get most of the vistas and some of the POI by taking keeps and the garrisons.
