I think, with the new wvw ranking/leveling system, addition of rank icons would be nice.
Many old mmorpg’s and fps games have this feature.
They will appear next to our name text just like map completion star. They will be shown in both wvw and pve, thus it ll attract more ppl to wvw battlefields and provide us a point to achieve new goals(ranks).
For example, the image below is from an old game called knight online.
You were able to get new ranks and rank icons(of current rank) next to your name via participating in pk combat and gaining nation points. The icon on the left is a rank, right one is a clan logo.

I suggest implementation of sms verification per ip (instead of authenticator app) to gw2 login system. (google uses that for google accounts etc.)
If we try to login from an IP different from our current IP, this IP won’t be allowed to access the account until it’s verified with a code sent to your phone via sms. But it won’t authorize an IP range, just a specific IP address. IP-range authorization means, everyone from my area is allowed to access my account as long as they crack my password. Sms verification for a specific ip auth, would allow us a cutting edge account security..
Please add some fancy wvw rank icons next to player names..
looks like wvw players’ dream is becoming real (according to march patch preview)
keep up the good work arenanet !
As far as I know, there’s nothing in the game that allows anyone to see “through” stealth. It’s likely since he’s a thief himself he’s just good at guessing where you will go. You can try to be a little more unpredictable with your movement ie: not moving in strait lines, combining stealth with shadowsteps, etc.
Also, channeled attacks will follow you through stealth and still hit if they are cast before you enter. Oh, and if he is using his number 1 skill, it will only complete the full chain if he is actually hitting you. This is a great way to track stealthed thieves if you know they are right by you.
Hmm, that makes sense. Thanks for advice.
Are you in a party with the enemy thief?
No, i don’t know him or his nickname. Just a random invader in wvw, but as i’ve gone to the same place to help commander, i’ve seen him doing this multiple times.

I want to know the same thing too, does dual sigil of accuracy/force stacks up to 10%?
Hi,
I’m new to thief class (leveled up with crafting :P) and I want to ask a question about stealth. I play mostly in wvw, and while in a deserted area of the map there’s no other characters or helpers(1v1), an enemy thief (always the same guy) has always targeted me while I’m in stealth. (I’m in stealth with the shadow refuge skill 10s)
I’m running away in stealth but I can see that he follows me using heartseeker and other skills. My question is, how does he target me and continue to use skills on me while I’m in stealth ? Is there some trait, slot skill or trait+sigil/rune combo for that ?
It would be a great addition, i can’t understand why some people are against innovation…
There should be new goals to achieve like getting rare mounts and training them. Otherwise without new goals, it will be boring after some play time. Visual mounts with swiftness can’t ruin the game, they will just attract more people to this game.
(wvw) Enemies are drawn much after we find ourselves in their zerg. Many people in my guild hated this new and laggy graphical player drawing system, can’t you optimise it a bit more to allow us to see enemies faster ? For example it would be great if we could see some graphical markings on our screen to see if there’s enemies. At least find a simple solution for these slowly loading zergs. (markings of near enemies in minimap and in screen, so we can notice them before they are being loaded slowly.)
well, if they remove stealth from thief, then they will need to buff health and defense of this class to convert it to a warrior-like class.
Old level scaling system was perfect, please bring it back to the game.
There’s some rendering problems in stereoscopic 3d mode. (Tried with Nvidia 3d vision)
In stereoscopic mode, left and right perspective images are rendered differently. (For example effects and shadows of these images don’t match) These two differently rendered images make 3d mode unusable.
We had an in-game selector to change districts in gw1, I suggest implementation of different version of this to gw2.
I don’t mean joining all servers freely, “2 guesting servers in 24h” limit stays.
At first, we need to select our two guesting-servers in character select screen, then we will be able to change our server in pve maps via this dropdown-selector. For example, I’m playing in “kessex hills” map of my home server, and if I use this dropdown box and select one of my guesting-servers, the game will reload itself and load the same map on the selected server.
For example, if there’s no ppl on a specific map on our server (when we need event or quest participants etc.), we can just load the same map on another server by this way.
Hi,
I’ve just seen a new cheat while playing. A player was teleporting to resource nodes in the map(Blazeridge steppes), and collecting them automatically. it looks like he’s collecting all resources on a map automatically. Please make a research about this hack or exploit and fix this before they start to heavily abuse it and make tons of gold.
Yeah guild based rankings would be nice too. There should be a point to play after completing all pve achievements. We are helping our server, killing invaders etc. but there should be some achievements, rankings in return. Maybe we can buy guild capes and visual upgrades with these wvw guild points…
Sfr has half the population of deso, but they are more active in wvw. As a desolation player i congratulate their success.
Yes, i want both achievements and ranks for WvW. Actually, this is the only pvp option where we can use our own gear, weapons etc. So i prefer playing wvw instead of spvp. More attractive achievements, and wvw ranking system are needed.
How these ranks will be gained? With points. (I call them world defender points)
- For example, If we kill an enemy player in the battlefield, we’ll get 4 points. If we revive our teammate in a fight we’ll get 2 points, otherwise 1 points. Building siege equipment gives some points too.i dont like it, not with the GW2 pvp score system
(S)Pvp is a seperate game in gw2, we can’t use our own items etc. Not everyone likes pvp, so WvW points and ranks are needed too.
WvW is addicting enough. It attracts a lot of players away from PvE just to accomplish those exploration achievements. Impatient folks even want those achievements separated from PvE.
WvW has a rotation system that keeps things fresh every 2 weeks. Every encounter feels new – The thrill of combat is already addicting enough.
Something like a whole new reward/rank system is something to be left for a big expansion pack deal.Right now, PvE is the thing that needs attention in regards to being more addicting.
Many higher-level players are all being concentrated on Cursed Shores or Fractals because of the karma / gear-rewards, and the traffic-level in other zones are dropping like flies.
ANet needs to find ways to spread out player-population better. Between Toypocalypse and Fractals, Lion’s Arch is almost always jam-packed making it a pretty laggy experience to walk through for people with older rigs.
I don’t mean that pve system needs to be disregarded, these are only partial ideas for making existing wvw system more attractive. For pve, I suggest dungeon “zergs” and some more collective player activities. But it’s a separate subject.
Hi, I have some ideas and suggestions for developers to make wvw more addictive and less boring. WvW is the only place that we can use our own weapons, items etc.. After crafting a legendary weapon and acquiring all high-end items, players will need some addictive battlefields to spend time.
- New WvW achievements are required, only achieving a text title for our kills in WvW isn’t enough. For example, like our 100% world completion star, you can add ranks, rank icons next to our nicknames and ranking system to the game.
How these ranks will be gained? With points. (I call them world defender points)
- For example, If we kill an enemy player in the battlefield, we’ll get 4 points. If we revive our teammate in a fight we’ll get 2 points, otherwise 1 points. Building siege equipment gives some points too.
- With our accumulated points, we’ll get new ranks and rank icons next to our names.
- Guilds will have world defender points too. This ll be a summary of their members’ points.
With these world defender guild points, guilds will be able to activate some buffs or new cape styles(cape addition is required), some new shiny visuals for their logos, capes etc…
-Also there ll be a guild ranking system by world defender points, this ranking table will be available on the game’s website and in-game window. Thus, players and guilds will need to work harder to have a place on these rankings.
With this rank system, players will have a better goal to achieve.
Also ;
-Enemy names and ranks must be visible, nobody wants to kill nameless unknown invaders. Also in such mmorpgs, many players want to be known by others.
-Only keep/tower zerging and spending time on knocking doors are sometimes boring. Pvp fights must be encouraged in some way. I suggest placing more capture rings to the map. So there can be more action outside keeps, towers etc.
-With these additions, also hardware/graphics optimization must be improved, so players ll have better fps values among the crowd.
These are my ideas, i ll be happy to see other players’ ideas and suggestions too. Thanks.

I don’t mean listing fee. I mean when we place a buy order, we pay that item’s price instantly. If we cancel our buy order, the price which we paid is refunded to trading post pickup slot. But i didn’t get a refund for some of my cancelled orders.
Edit : i’ve logged in today, and i’ve got refunded although there is 0 coins to pickup in tp.
It looks like it’s a temporary tp bug.

If it’s sold in trading post, then third party gold buyers will get one easily without even spending time to get it. And legendaries ll lose their prestige. If you can’t prevent gold sellers, then make legendaries soulbound on acquire please.
I’ve cancelled some of my buy orders on trading post, but i got no refunds.
I’ve lost about 3-4 golds due to that, find a solution please !
I really don’t like whining about cheaters in forums, but it started to go off the rails.
Wherever i go in farming maps(orr, frostgorge..), i see tons of botters.
real players earn only small amounts while botters get rich…
Dear arenanet,
Please remove botters from game, you can prepare a bot detection algorithm to easily detect them. Even as a player, i can easily find who’s botting, because they form parties and always follow same linear pattern. They get in-game money via an unfair way while we’re playing for hours in front of our pc. Please act quickly before it’s too late, and before players start to quit playing gw2. Please improve your anti-cheat system…

Yes, why french or german people has seperate servers ? What’s their privileges ?
There’s so many european countries without dedicated servers.
It’s unfair to play vs. nation-grouped players. They communicate and co-ordinate better, that makes an unfair advantage vs. international servers. Or don’t match them with international servers, then it ll be fair. Have a good game…
