Bossun.2046 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 I am barely rank 1500 in WvW, after having jumped back into it after a looooong break from it. I have been playing the game mode non stop all week, and something that just irked me were the capped WvW Skirmish Claim Tickets. I am aware that in sPvP, the Ascended shards are repeatable on Byzantium chest for as long as you can complete them. Why cant we have the same from the Diamond chest in WvW?

Solanum.6983 Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Honestly I hate the cap, Anything to lessen the timegates for legendaries is great in my book because right now I don't think I'll be making another set if I've to wait 5 Months+ just for the tickets.

knite.1542 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I would like this too, even if it wasn't a whole bunch. I doubt it is going to happen though. Also, inb4: I have enough tickets, so I don't see what the problem is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchonWing.9480 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I'd cap it @ 500 personally. I often don't make it to diamond so doesn't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NovaSpiral.7186 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I've never made it to the final chest but the rewards in general, especially compared to the pvp rewards, feel very lacking. More skirmish claim tickets would be nice, but if for whatever reason Anet can't do that giving gold in the reward chests like they do in pvp would be a huge improvement. Repeatable claim tickets and repeatable gold in the rewards chest would do wonders to retain players even after they've completed all the chest. Plus the gold would be motivation for people like me who can't even make it to the final chest. I'm really surprised Anet hasn't already done it.

DanAlcedo.3281 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Would not matter much if they are repeatable or not. After you got your legendaries, they become worthless. Especially after the memories of battle became so valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMOs are built around timegates, as the goal of their developers is to have you logged in and playing for as many hours per week as possible. It is deliberate and by design, normally because if you're paying a subscription fee, the more months it takes you to meet your goals, the more $$$ you give them; but even in a F2P game like GW2 they want you in-game for as long as possible...and if you get tired, you can always resort to the gem store to buy gold for a speed up in many circumstances.

Chaba.5410 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 What kind of reward would you propose for those of us who didn't stop playing during your break? Are you also aware that sPvP chest rewards are only active during tournaments while WvW is 24/7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reward didn't exist back then so i don't see where you are trying to get at. Not only that, this would benefit those who have higher PIP gain and actually complete their Diamond chests multiple times. I am not asking for the tickets to be added to my wallet without me doing anything. This is just a QOL change. If you aren't aware, PvP now has mini seasons after the regular 5v5 conquest, which also reward the ascended shards of glory. Practically gives the ability to gain the PvP currency non-stop.

What does that matter? The reward came into existence sometime during your break. Why should those who didn't play get rewarded with more tickets than those of us who did? I realize you're not asking for back-tickets, but that's exactly what people who played will ask for; tickets for the total time they played past the cap. Also, shards of glory are analogous to memories of battle. It's the pvp league tickets that match skirmish tickets. Are you saying there is no cap on league tickets now? And frankly, the cap promotes healthy behavior. It prevents 24/7 grinding for skirmish tickets and we all know how distorted matches can get with off-hours coverage.

That map needs love The map is so broken anyone who owns HoT or PoF can solo the entire map without any siege. Pretty much anet is going to ignore any more wvw development as they have been doing for years and that map will just sit there and nothing will change that unless someone finds something more game breaking than I have that impacts their profits lol. Which would be hard because they nerfed everything into the ground except for the wxp. Its been their theme for awhile now to completely nerf things and forget about them.

Trying to hold something off unless they add something else you want is childish... baby steps or you are stuck with what you have. I don't know your stance regarding this topic but it just feels like a poor counter argument. there is no exact match for the PvP league tickets. Just because you see tickets on both their name doesn't make it so. Ascended Shards of Glory is the currency for ascended armor and ascended weapons in PvP much like with how the Skirmish merchant in WvW uses the skirmish claim tickets for both armor and weapons. Something that falls closer to the PvP league tickets would be the testimonies of heroics, comparing what you can get from NPCs. Far of as it may be that's still the closest comparison to both. Edit: you know there are the regular Shards of Glory and also the Ascended Shards of Glory right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
