Although it would be far better if we could choose whether the guild hall was a PvP zone (use only PvP gear) or a PvE zone (use only equipped PvE gear). Right now, it's locked to PvE with no way to change it. If we have to choose only one or the other though, it should just be a PvP zone, period.

Went to a new instance and the problem cleared up. All good now.

Yeah, hopefully just a bug then. Though I've ran lab for a long time and I've never seen this happen, personally.

Is this intentional? I certainly hope not. >_>

New guild features and Guild vs. Guild! The first because the guild tools are very lacking and haven't been touched in bloody ages, and the second because sPvP REALLY needs some love already!!

What are you talking about? Wizard's Vault is a global feature. You don't need the expansion at all to use it in full. The only thing you won't have are, of course, the SotO objectives and items. I guess? It presented a box for me where I could immediately select what I wanted. If you didn't make a selection there, oh well. It's not the end of the bloody world.

I lol'd. Dailies are NOT gone. Quite the opposite. What the hell are you smoking? You don't need to do PvP. You can select which gamemodes you want to do.

And what exactly do you mean by that? Nobody's FORCING you to do anything. If you want to do some content that isn't listed, then just do it. You'll still get rewards from that, and it looks like there's still some rewards for doing incredibly basic actions like dodging in combat. Also, as far as PvE is concerned, I think you'll have rewards for specific regions as well. (By the way, this forum software's quoting system is infuriating.)

Exactly. So it means you actually need to, you know, play the game instead of sitting on your butt in town cashing in on laurels and mystic coins.

If I recall correctly, I read in a blog post from ANet that gem store availability would be majorly improved, but it looks like there's still a bunch of items that are still being pulled from the store. This greatly disappoints me. ANet why do you make it so hard for me to give you money?

https://static-brand.ncsoft.com/ncsoft/invest/result/20230809/report/2Q23_PT_ENG.pdf As of Q2 2023, GW2 is in the #3 spot out of 5 for total sales in their PC MMO lineup, making a total of ~$15 million, not far behind from the financial heavy-hitters Lineage and Lineage 2.

GuildWars2.com main page (on the carousel) currently boasts 16 million players, probably monthly. Even if they were completely talking out of their butts and it was only a third of that, that's still ~5 million players. Just to give some context for that, WoW reached an all-time peak of ~12 million players in 2010. Now, you guys can argue all you want to about semantics, and I could be wrong about these numbers here, but judging from all this and also my years of playing this game, I believe it. You can decide what you want to believe and how pessimistic you're going to be.

Fine. Here's a much harsher source. https://mmo-population.com/r/guildwars2 Current active daily count is 350,000.

100 monthly players. lol ANet really has let PvP completely stagnate.

Pffftt. Get on my level.
