Malfrador.3615 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 The ranked PvP badges were removed because they added more visual clutter to WvW. As we now have simple nameplates in WvW as well as thick health bars, visual clutter of the nameplates is no longer a problem (there are other things like too many skill effects, but nameplates don't fix this issue).The nameplates were a nice way of showing of your PvP skills in roaming and fights in general and were also some sort of status symbol for other players. I would even say that some people played more ranked games for the badge and not the other rewards.Showing the badges in PvE is really useless as most PvE people don't care about your PvP rank. WvW people are more likely to care about these things, so give us a way to show our rank.Adding a setting for this in the options would be nice of course, but it should also be fine if its always on and just shows next to the guild tag one the simple nameplate.

bq pd.2148 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 oh yes please! more roamers underestimating me, not just for build choice but also for lack of badge as i dont pvp :)i would prefer WvW badges, with repeatable achivements depending on what badgetype you are going for.for example you option for a roamer badge than you will have an achievement unlocked that will count stomps without dying and you will advance in tiers, get rewards etc. if you have selected damage dealer it will count the amount of damage done/boons corrupted within 1 combat period, a supporter the same with heals / cleanses /boons.with that you would see who in your zerg is able to play his role properly and as a roamer you would see who is winning the majority of his fights and might be a decent opponent.but ofc we can also just show badges from other mode, because they are so relevant for WvW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blodeuyn.2751 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I don't care about anyone's pvp rank. I myself never pvp so as stated above, it would be meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sovereign.1093 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 worth noting if a significant number of players care though.but i think we should keep pvp pve and wvw ranks separate because they are different game modes.i am more interested in being able to show a particular title.like having diamond makes you a target to focus =p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eudaimonia.8695 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Wvw badges, sure, why not? I couldn't care less about pvp badges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offair.2563 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Sure, as long i get to brag with my wvw badge in spvp. Pretty point and meaningless i know but knife cuts on both sides ey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephiroth.4217 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Yea, no...I'm all for the allies seeing it but WvW was boring as hell as a roamer running around as "Mithril Knight" rocking a Platinum/Gold badge - Just about everyone would port away before you even got close.Now I'm even higher ranked with WvW and PvP legendaries equipped... So a no from me, players already get demoralized from a fight just based on class and wardrobes, the only thing a high WxP rank has going for me now is that everyone jumps on me like I'm some sort of zergling and that's only if I have my PvP legendary hidden.I would honestly prefer badges to go with WxP ranks and show those in WvW rather than showing PvP badges in WvW.

Hesacon.8735 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Each season I roll high gold/low plat, but stop being interesting and stop playing the game mode and my rank decays to bronze unless I play 7 games.Basically I'd go around roaming while also sandbagging people.
