XatraZaytrax.2601 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 People always seem to be asking for a reason to revisit old maps. Maybe Anet could add stuff to draw people. Like I always thought it would be fun if the arena in the Charr home city was a pvp arena players could use.Or something similar with the Polymock Arena shown on the Asura home map.

Harak.8397 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 A World Boss event in Plains of Ashford as someone once suggested.I thought the Awakened invasion portal in low level zones was a nice touch... and didn't seem to disturb low level play all that much, so stuff of that sort might work too.

Operator.2590 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Actually adding substance / incentives for Mentors would help across the board too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant like adding any event someone would like to see. Such as maybe Flashback portals that would allow groups of players experience he fall of Lion's Arch or the Marionette.

Aru.4156 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Some Orr map events or the Magumma Wastes events to be put into the world boss event train or somrthing. Then it'd give me reasons to go to those maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinceman.4572 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 PvE Reward track so players can choose what they like instead of being forced into content. It would be enough to add newer maps later to the system so it's guaranteed that the latest maps have decent amounts of players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly a lot of rewards are way too rare to drop. Though a PvE reward track to get those items is a bit too extremely easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though a PvE reward track to get those items is a bit too extremely easy.Of course it shouldn't be made too easy and I would be fine with a certain degree of grind and then being account bound but overall you then would have a realistic chance to get the item you want and not to rely on external websites where the already heavy whales become richer and richer. The luck chance can still apply since it is so rare it doesn't matter anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rarity overkill certainly is antithetical to their economy policies to such contradictory levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgerrule.8739 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Pve reward tracks for stuff locked behind pvp or wvw stuff like how reward tracks are the opposite.Have to do allot of events and each event gives diminishing return value to force you to keep changing maps to keep it going up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urud.4925 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 They added some "more challenging" content in low level maps in the last 2 years: the awakened invasion or those portals that teleport you to fight a branded boss. Sometimes there is a boss farming event. It's not much and it's not really end-game content, sure. But you must remember that low level maps are mainly meant for new players, to learn the game. A new player (possibly still with a free account, trying the game) would probably be too confused if he stumbled across a horde of high level players killing everything with their mounts.I mean, some more "life" is fine, to attract more, but we have more than 50 maps, there's no reason to add end game content to the early maps. Orr could be fine, or some instanced arena in the capital cities, as someone said. But don't annoy new/returning players when they are trying to level up their first character.

Jimbru.6014 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Before adding new events, I'd like to see all the existing events in Metrica and Iron Marches finally fixed. Some of them have been broken and getting stuck for literally years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't annoy new/returning players when they are trying to level up their first character.Remember Modremoth's invasion of the lvl 15 zones? And how the scaling system was broken due to the Mordrem not having properly scaled Sub-80 stat block (effectively making them 3 levels higher), Lvl 80 Players being scaled down more aggressively due to the Zone's level, Low Level players scaling the whole event up, but lacking the Damage, armor value, Defensive or Control skills to fight an enemy designed around needing a shut down strategy, and can dish out enough CCs to stun lock you, and then roll you over with more damage then you knew was possible at that point. I'm pretty sure the Awakened Invasions are scaled properly... but that difference in their attacks is so substantial, they go in looking like this......http://images.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Spongebob-Happy-spongebob-squarepants-154897_338_432.jpgbut come out looking like this....."The day I set foot on that beach in Normandy, I never wished more that there was a god in heaven, and I was never more certain that there wasn’t."
