Hi all, im a Desolation server member (actually @ tier 1 but going for tier 2 on WvWvW) and as a result of the last patch change i got a bit sick of all the fever running around new dungeon and how this game changed his route.
GW2 is a pvp based game but in the last few days it became a “Who wants to be the biggest PVE’er”, where like 98% of the server was discovering how to get rewards through this new challenge… ok, seems legit, and at first i was a bit mad because (at least on my server) i enter WvW and we were outmanned in almost every map, when we usually had our prime time conquering zerg. yes i was pissed off, and had multiple conversations with my guild mates saying that PVE is ruining this game, QQ, etc. Well, after my rage i came to think of something that can be worthy of your attention, so here it is.
So, we cant deny the existence of people who loves PvP, the ones who devote themselves to PVE and the mid term guys who can enjoy both. But we cant satisfy them all because if new dungeons are released, PVE ppl will focus at max, some PvP people will join, the ones who dont join will see “outmanned” icon and at some point will quit the meaningless battle too.
But lets see, if your WvW is going all right, if your server is winning during the week, PVE players will get bonus at some of they’re crucial “stats” = gathering, crafting, etc. but PvP players dont benefit from the PVE part of the server, because trading market is global and the stuff you get are usually soulbound or accountbound, making trades rare. So, my point is: How will PVP players be encouraged to keep doing PVP and how can PVE have some influence on WvW?
Well, my opinion is this, PVE could start to stablish some connection to supplies @ WvW, the X dungeons completed, the X supply to use or something to be thought and discussed about, because i doubt that things are so linear. Even if new gear starts dropping at WvW, new patches will come, new dungeons will appear, story still goes on, so situations like this will happen again, making people like me (WvW player) not be mad and pvp can still go ON, because it can compensate the lack of people with more siege weapon and upgrades at towers and keeps.
Please be polite, comment and sorry for my english
