King Latif.6903 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I understand that the alliance system will be coming in the future but one thing that the alliances wont do will be to actually rank the guilds on a table. Yes the community of WvW will know what guild is best but not having a leader board for it just isn't the same. I really do hope for some sort of arena which you can join and participate in a tournament. I reckon you guys have already thought about this but my question is would you EVER implement something like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XenesisII.1540 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 gvg is pretty dead... just look at the last na gvg tournie, half those guilds didn't belong there.Would have probably been amazing if in the early years they had 5v5 10v10 15v15 guild arena seasons with rankings.They should also still probably still think still maybe still do still something still about still MAKING OBSIDIAN SANCTUM MEGASERVER'D.

XenesisII.1540 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Makes more sense making os an eotm format than eotm these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Pj.2193 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 It needs to be megaservered and have a join feature like the guild hall. This would allow colored teams, 2-3 teams, as well as a free for all option.Without team assignment, you couldn't fight guilds on your own server. Never mind those in a different tier that are the same color as you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspirine.5839 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 If they want to make alliance a success some kind of gvg could be implemented. Not just simple arena, but something with a bit more thought to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joneirikb.7506 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Hmm, didn't one of the Dev's mention sometime earlier this year, that they'd look into the possibility of 15vs15 arena for pvp? Or is my memory completely off the rockers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory.2879 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 If they did anything to OS they would also need to make it a larger area and add a few features, higher/lower ground, etc to make the battles more than just bore fest blob wars. They could have instances and battles from 5v5 up to 30v30, leader boards at each level and maybe even some small rewards for winning a match.Of course, gvg should have been a feature since day one, so by now they have totally missed the boat.

ArenaNet Staff Ben Phongluangtham.1065 Posted June 30, 2018 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted June 30, 2018 So we have a couple things in progress. First, is a new section of EOTM that is just an open arena that's suitable for large fights if people choose. I've been working on it this week and it's pretty far along.Second, we have a custom arena map in progress. The map is being setup for larger deathmatches. However, it uses the sPvP stat and armor system, which many GvGers also won't be interested in. Custom arenas also have a limitation of 10v10 currently.We still have no current plans to ever have GvG be a fully supported game mode, but we did want to do a few things for the fervent GvGers out there!

I play it just for what it is, but even being ALL players that are my colour this week, it's too vacant. No pips is also a big part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would that be a possible change?It's very bad right now especially because of the WvW exclusive nerf to classes like Scourge and PVE mechanics like Retal and Loss Aversion. Scourge DPS basically doubles in guild hall as they do not get the shade nerfs from WvW for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing guild in house events there can be a bit of a chore sometimes :astonished: Appreciate the communication as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylden Ar.3724 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Ben, Is there any chance that at least some of the guild functions for WvW could be applied to EotM? Like claims and auras? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klypto.1703 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 If eotm had pips and then they added in PoF currencies with those desert coffer things as well as give you some kind of choice between tome of knowledge or some currency it would bolster both eotm and wvw. Pretty much both end up being around half of our rewards and just collect dust with the all the pve junk too. As well or either adding those crates from PoF to the skirmish chest vendor and maybe some time in the future vendor with skirmish rewards based on wvw rank.
