ArenaNet Staff Ben Phongluangtham.1065 Posted March 30, 2018 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted March 30, 2018 Hey folks!I've been meaning to get this up for a while. Most of this won't come as news to anyone, if you've been following our posts. But I wanted to get a thread that summarized it all.The following list contains a selection of changes that currently are on the WvW Team backlog. This list is not all-inclusive; it only includes features that have been started. Keep in mind that plans change, priorities shift, and projects always take longer than we’d like. Some of these improvements are many months from completion, and some may be removed if our priorities shift. If that is the case, we’ll update this post in the future.World RestructuringRemove current worlds and dynamically create worlds.https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/26547/world-restructuring/p1Siege re-evaluationReview balance and usability of current siegeObsidian Weapon SetGroup 1 (Released 12/12)Group 2 (Released 3/27)Quality of LifeRepeatable Reward Track Auto-Restart (If the reward track you have selected is repeatable, it will remain set upon completion)WvW Enrichments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

displayname.8315 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Nice to see World Restructuring at the top of the list. Calling it a backlog and many months away is unfortunate for us players. Any specifics on a roadmap for restructuring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyShroud.2865 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thanks for the update. It is nice to know what are being work on, at least we know WvW is not getting left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devastoscz.9851 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Something major that needs to be addressed is the fact a whole section of the Desert Borderlands doesn't allow blinks. The NE side of NE tower has a whole section where you can't blink in ANY class. Not ele, not mesmer, not thief, nothing. No teleports work there. Its been like this for WAY too long now and it completely screws up gameplay for any class that depends on these mobility tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gop.8713 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 It may seem minor, but repeatable reward tracks will be such a nice addition. One question though: Will it be automatic or selectable? Either would be great, but I like to leave my completed reward tracks marked as full once I have all the unique skins and goodies from them, just so I don't have to go look them up later to remember if I have it all or not. If the spillover goes back into that track again after I have the last skin I won't be able to use that personal notation any more. That's not a big deal and I'd love repeatable tracks either way, but being able to select whether to apply it would also be a huge benefit . . .

Dawdler.8521 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 @"Gop.8713" said:Will it be automatic or selectable? Either would be greatThe most elegant solution would simply be "Choose another track" (brings you to the WvW reward track menu) or "Repeat track" (automatically repeats the track) buttons instead of the regular old accept button on the final chest. But I suppose we'll see. From the sounds of things, it's just gonna be a plain repeat as is. Which means the problem will be the reverse instead - you'll forget what track you are running lol.

Is it meant to be a catch-all word for fixes of anything WvW related?Enrichments are kind of like infusions but you can put them only in your amulet. We currently have 4 Enrichments...EXP, gold drop, karma gain and magic find.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/EnrichmentThey are looking to add 2 more for wvw...WEXP and reward track gain.I just hope they will be 20% increase like the other ones....

DemonSeed.3528 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Speaking of which, would you guys please consider guild boosters (enhancements from tavern) to be available universally instead of just HoT owners. It's weird having something for guilds locked behind that. Guild benefits when joining a guild should be available to anyone joining them - it looks weird when you have to explain to others the reason behind it.

Curunen.8729 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Thanks for the update.Would also be nice if Shrine speed buff durations in DBL could be increased to at least 20 minutes, and some similar mechanic made available for purchase on other maps from npcs.

They have disadvantages too. Negating those with an enrichment?Well, give thief and Mesmer +25% damage enrichment, or +25% armor enhancement.
