It didn’t sound too bad, until they added in:
However, this track will reset weekly.
I mean, wtf? So if I am one pip short of a full track during the week, I lose all progression and have to start over? Who thinks that is a good idea?
People who don’t play wvw all that often could log in Tuesday, look at progression, work out they aren’t going to finish the track before reset and just not bother logging in.
As for more rewards for higher ranks, way to feed all those that EOTM’d to gain rank or those on the busiest servers….
I can see dozens of tags on each map as you get more for being a comm- and fights over who is supposed to tag up. I’m guessing they consulted one of their pet commanders before bringing in a bonus for a comm tag…
Why don’t they at least ask some wvw players about these changes before they fester them on us?
It’s now official: k- train ftw. I can see loads of pve’rs running around tagged up and completely clueless…until they realise how hard it is to actually get anything in wvw and off they will go again.
I’m guessing that the actual targets for getting the armor and backpack will be so off target (like wvw achievements were for years) that the vast majority will have to play for the rest of their lives to get one piece of ascended.
OK, there’s quite a lot of criticism on this subject. I’m just quoting you at random.
As it stands, we have a WvW population with no weekly rewards. If we add weekly rewards, we will only gain players, not loose players. If our current population plays less, then they are not true WvWers.
We’ve been asking for a weekly reward sysstem for a long time. Whether this reflects winning or not, remains to be seen. I hate, hate, hate the everyone gets a trophy mentality, so hopefully, it’s not that.
That depends you see, if the reward track progresses too slowly and gets resetted more often than not before u reach your reward box, then players will just do a roflmao and retreat to pve for rewards

yes, and then you can turn on the anytime-anywhere open world pvp, pvp in Octovine, pvp in fractals when Mai Trinh hits 5% hp at Fractal 50, pvp on top of the ley islands at Dragon’s Stand in front of big ole Mordy, pvp when.. I dono. The option for death penalty seems fun too, pk’ed players should reward random items in their inventory to their killers.

Leather is ridiculously expensive. Crafting one set of exotic medium armour is now averaged around 40g or so. You can say there are ways to farm it but you can also farm a pre. Do u want to farm a pre? Leather farming is just not so efficient. At least based on the last time I did it, it seemed you need alot of bags just to get that precious small pile of leather. Besides, the price speaks for itself.
