Could it be possible... the Unity title! Only for those who have max Luxon and Kurzick titles!

I hope another Double Sunspear & Lightbringer Weekend happens soon. That amount of minutes of favor is slowly reaching zero...

Nonetheless, yet another weekend to do EotN dungeons on my Mesmer.

I paid around the same price as everybody for my GW content, so why would the fact that i'm a part of the PvE community get me less content?

So we are basically getting as much QQing now as we would if it would have been 3 PvE W-E in a row.

Aternating the W-E bonus would be fine if Anet would try respecting it.

36 holes of golf>this weekend as long as it doesn't rain. I suppose it's good for those top 100 guilds though!!

And yes hopefully something big is coming to PvE so I can get a week's more playtime out of GW.

Let me ask you something -


When it's a PvE weekend, aside from lockpick drops, do you realize that you PvE'ers still bitch?

Double Exp/Greens/Gold-Exp Vanqs/etc - "oh man, that sucks, looks like i'm not going to do that"

FA/JQ was a PvE weekend. FA/JQ is not PvP, and is more PvE than AB even. (shudders)

I'm really curious how FA/JQ are pve. Please explain that to me. You are basically in an arena, along side other human players, fighting against other human players. How is this pve?

when the main objective of your map is to make sure that your NPC's or turtles survives over killing other players, than its not truly PvP based.

Another useless weekend. Why do they only give PvPers stuff?

GvG is also NPC protection. GvG = PvE?

When you are fighting against other players (player vs player), it sure isn't pve(nvironment).

Most of the time you're not. Thats the problem. Same with AB and HB.

Nice weather + craptacular weekend event = doing other fun stuff.

Woot.

They need to make their "random weekend event" button more random.

i was trying to imply the fact that only 50 people may benefit out of this event (and hero battle reward points are also very understated, as in it should be almost equiv to gvg, at the very least proportional to time spent playing).

Whoooo thanks for clearing that up, after reading the first line with your QQ over Ursan. I would have never thought that your clever use of UvE would have meant Ursan vs Environment.

You are damn near genius.

Anyway who cares if the weekend is PvP or PvE over the long haul they will even out. If you really hate PvP that much go outside and enjoy some fresh air. If the PvP'ers hate PvE that much do the same, take the weekend off and do something worth while.

Come on guys it is JUST A GAME !

Well, I'm not too happy about another PvP weekend. I could not even tell you what a 1v1 is! If all this PvP is because of Dragon Festival comming up why do they count that as PvE weekend? Are you trying to tell me the PvP players don't come to the festivals. There sure are a lot of guys in the temple of Balth wearing holiday helms if they don't come to festivals.

They added new content for PvP with the Z chests and nothing for PvE. Oh, they gave us another worthless end gome item if you want to go back and redo a mission you've done a million times. I don't care if they are all working on GW2 they still got a bunch of bored people playing here. They made a comitment to us to keep the game updated and they arn't doing it. We need some new content here! I even will be willing to pay for it, just bring on the expanison content. More dungeons in every land. What's that temple near the Statue of Balth in Majesty's Rest and what is behind that door in Forum Highlands near the Do Not Touch. These have got to be places that were created for new content that never got added. I say bring on the content and give every other weekend to PvE. I don't know why Anet is so comited to PvP over PvE but it sure is a fact.

And how about a vanquisher weekend. Rant finished!

How does Anet define FA/JQ?

Here's a simple way to figure it out. Go to either one and try to use pve only skills.

I don't think so, but i could be wrong since it's been a while. They've done the weekend events for a while, but not since release. It started roughly around factions and had pve events too..........right?
