Hi, I just want to say what i think should be made in PVP.

Here is my fantasy

:

It would have been cool if there where some sort of 1v1 arena (without hereos). It should be possible to bet money on the guy u think is going to win and get past a cool title track for it. When entering the arena u would have to pay a price or something like that and give it to the winner pot(or what u call it .. i cant speak english so good

) . The guys who are waching should allso get an opportunity to support the winning pot or bet money with another player. When entering a fight there should be random oppoments soo there would be no scamming. Warriors, monks, ranger and other proffessions could choose which proffesion they wanted to fight with and get a little/much bag

I would be happy to get critic, new ideas with this subject and im sorry for my bad english..

hope u liked my idea

lol, betting on 1vs1? it's a really fun idea.

MithranArkanere · Jun 19, 2008, 07:08 PM // 19:08

GW is not designed for 1vs1. In 1vs1 fights existed, they would depend just in pure luck, since each build is always defeated by an other.

The only things that would work would be things like:
- Tag matches. Two teams fight in single battles of 1vs1, so if one is killed the next comes up, and a team loses if all the members die, one by one.
- Same build matches. Like the Brawling skills.

That way teams do not depend just on plain pairing luck.

So a W/Mo faces a Me/N and has a chance? Too hard for some classes to compete when they need a team to fill in other roles. Ask someone in your guild to do a scrimmage if you want 1 on 1.

Guild Wars PvP is about teamwork and co-operation. 1 vs 1 is stupid, It would add more titles (unnecessary), defies the game's reason for PvP, and if you so badly want to bet on someone in a 1 vs 1 match, go scrimmage or watch a scrimmage...

As mentioned befor It would matter on which builds where taken. A Mesmer with Sig of Midnight will trump the W/Mo, every time.

You lost me as soon as you said "bet money". There's so many ways that can go wrong.

So, a glorified rock/paper/scissors e-peen match?

Not worth A-Net's limited time/resources, PvPers want useful PvP updates, not a wammo fight club.

And this is not the case with team builds? Could you explain?

I doubt this (1v1) would be interesting since you will always need: Self heal, condition removal (blind/daze and maybe cripple), hex removal (to prevent total shut down by necro's/mesmer's), enough damage output.

People will quickly figure out what 3 skills are best for that and that remains only 5 skills that can vary.

I very much doubt there will be much fun/diversity in the matches.

(Looks at hero battles)

1v1 is terrible in this game, plus you can already do it in scrimmages.

No because everyone would use Burning Arrow R/Mo with purge sig+antidote signet.
