GvGers Emote?

[maricarso]

It seems that a lot of GvG players are getting disappointed due to the
fact that they are not really getting individual incentives for
participating in GvGs . Unlike HA, they are getting all the cool stuff such
as emotes, drops, etc. So, pretty much, more peep would rather HA than
GvG. This game is called Guild Wars. So, I would think when winning
a GvG, players should earn individual incentives as well. Some
examples could be GvG emotes and/or GvG drops. As of now, the
motivation for people to GvG is not there, but GvGer incentives would help us
guild leaders encourage our guildies to GvG and remain active in game.
Your assistance is very much appreciated! :smiley:

Also Zaishen keys are attained through pvping. For instance everyone in my guild that gvgs is full unlocked. So we just zaishen key it getting sweet items for everyone and selling ones we don't need for guild moneys.

Thank you for your quick response! Those are really cool prizes for high rank guilds, however, it’s unfortunate that not everyone belongs in a high rank guild. As much as some of us would like to play 24/7 and be one of the best player in the game, but it’ll be tough for some of us to do so. Some of us actually has life after GW and some of us has to work to sustain our gaming habits and for us to keep buying new GW games. That’s why, I really love the idea of gaining a fame every win in HA and slowly building a fame for a very cool emote! How I wish that’ll become possible in GvG as well!

I dunno, it seems to me that GvG is much more popular than HA, and the limiting factor is that it takes a lot longer, not that there aren't rewards.
