Ok I have been playing this game since beta...mostly just questing and missions but since I have finished those I have been playing or trying to play PvP.

In my opinion I think Arena Net has alot of work to do on this also guild halls and HoH. PvP is so unbalanced it isnt even funny..who wants to play a game where you are going to lose and you know it before the match even starts? Half the time most of the players that die leave before you can rez them or they leave you right when the match starts or go AFK.

I enjoy this game and play it alot but please do something about this..the random players on each side just isnt cutting it...sometimes you get 3 rangers and a warrior and the other side will have 2 or 3 monks and a warrior...I mean cmon you can see how that is going to turn out.
I thank Arena Net for giving us such a great game but I would also like to see an arena where you can go profession againt profession all warrior against all warrior etc...

Also I would like to see one on one dueling where you can challenge someone to a duel or just play one on one in an arena.
Personally I do not like seeing the unbalanced magical/spell skills in the arena at all...make one for melee combat only (gladiator style) maybe add some animals that you have to destroy before they destroy your group (man against beasts).

Also maybe add some more rewards to when you have won a battle in the arena I can get more XP points by just going and grinding on a couple of monsters over and over than I can get in Arena.
I have been on streaks where my group can win 16 in a row (yes i know that might not be alot compared to some of you) then I have also had streaks where I cant win any matches ever....whats the point of playing PvP (and playing it again) if its so unbalanced and random?

Please discuss this and dont make it a flame fest Because I want this game to get better and not become another game im going to erase off my computer in a month.

ok, i can understand where you are comming from but..

comming from WarCraft 3's "Dota" where one would go days before getting a "good game" (leavers, bitchers, children, laggots, ect..) if one does go afk, or lag out.. i only wasted 2-5 min. now why on earth people leave right after they die is a serious problem. perhaps they do not think they will be resses.. who knows?

another thing that bothered me was "PvP is so unbalanced it isnt even funny" IMO pvp in GW is the most balanced thing there is. simply rework your build and maybe pick up a few more skills.. or ask here, we can help.

I too would like to see some 1v1 but GW being a "team game" i dont think we will see this anytime soon.

As far as rewards in pvp.. i think maybe PCs should have a small chance of dropping weps/runes/ect but this would create more problems then it would solve..

I think arena fight should give some reward to attract players to stay there with a long term... This way you also won't find those inexperienced player in tomb that skipped arena completely and just out trying to get reward from tomb... and of course.. end up in the garbage can.

Sorry that it bothered you but these are my opinions...
PvP is unbalanced (in my opinion)
I do not need help with builds (thank you for the offer though)
what this game needs is a reworking of PvP balance.
All that a person really has to look forward to in PvP is (alot of one sided unbalanced massacres) random wins and streaks of random wins here and there (and people on your team leaving before or after dying). There are also alot of places on arena maps where your character gets stuck or hung up. Also pets in the arena tend to hang up my warrior character (its like they are on the same grid line or something)

Things to do list: (to help keep this game alive)
1. Rework PvP (make it more balanced)
2. 1 on 1 duels (challenge a player)
3. Guild Halls concept needs additions and reworking (pretty boring and blah)
4. Add more quests,missions and content
