And what of the people who didn't sell their Z-keys?
I do hope that we see the XTH back. I see no reason to completely isolate one "world" from another, with PvP only being allowed to use the XTH rewards, so on and so forth. That just furthers the gap that so many people want to close.
I enjoyed the XTH. Sure, I get crap 99% of the time from the Z-chest, but there's always the little gamble that you'll get something decent to keep.
It did encourage me to watch more of the PvP than I have in the past, and I don't see any problem with people -not- watching the matches and just simply guessing.
Admitting that the information on the XTH has been lacking... I sincerely hope it came back. It was something I definitely enjoyed.
XTH has become an epic fail

Sidenote: nobody gives a sh*t about emotes anymore. And if emotes were available in PvE, the PvP community would probably shrug it off and show off their titles instead.

Actually people who do not grind can via XTH get all the money they need. Some of the people so obsessed with farming would stop with XTH being put back. I am not sure if it is true but that would be my guess.
Myself I prefer that people get their money from XTH than from farming. At least then there is a less impact on skill balance and less whining when such happens.

A dead XTH is a good XTH 
Ok more seriously. I thought it would suck if XTH went down and so would my monthly income. But then again I've played this game for so long before XTH was invented and I still play long after it's down... and I can't say I feel affected by it being down in any way.
And the income from it was totally random anyway, sometimes nothing sometimes good. I prefer a more constant source of income Nowadays I like doing zquests for instance.

Would you find it fairer if you had to unlock the item in pve before using reward points to buy for a pvp char?
still stuck with it, as you cannot reroll and keep your items...

Consider the last several months as if XTH was up but you made really bad predictions in those 5 mins and got nothing. You'd have to survive if you make bad predictions right? So I'm pretty sure anyone can survive with little to no distress if XTH never came back.

I liked the idea of the XTH but the rewards were maybe a factor too high for the non competing players. I have 2 accounts (2nd was not bought for XTH) and made around 150-200k a month which is a bit excessive for doing nothing more than reading a thread and picking 8 teams out of a list
If they have it in GW2 maybe /10 the cash you can get from it when not actually competing so that its still a little cash boost and a chance at a Key/Chest item each month but not stupid silly amounts of money for nothing.

Absolutely!
I don't see the why people should be forced to do content that isn't fun and has no meaning to what they are doing. I mean, if you want to do GvG in a pretty outfit, do you REALLY need know what Shiro had for breakfast?
The problem is that the rewards that were once exclusive to PvE are now losing this exclusivity, yet the rewards that were exclusive to PvP aren't.
You can not get the Willcrusher skin for an Inspiration staff in PvE. Nor can you, as I have said, get the Luxon outfit UNLESS you reach Cavalon.
And skins ARE a PvE reward!
Which means that a PvP guy has better access to PvE rewards WITHOUT doing PvE than a PvE guy doing PvE!
And if a PvE character wants PvP rewards, he needs to do PvP!
While this would be understandable if this could be used as a carrot to lure PvE players into PvP, the current implementation does not achieve that nor do the players actually WANT to move. And by making this game more and more PvE focused, it seems that not only is A.Net aware of that - they are actually taking this into consideration when throwing out new products!

And not only does PvP have a system of unique snowflakes, the PvE unique snowflake system disappeared because it was shared with PvP.
And that's the core issue.
The issue of the system being implemented poorly is something we get to along the road.
So the simple fact that XTH allows PvE-ers to have access to PvP rewards without doing PvP can NOT be an issue! Because then the fact that PvPers have access to PvE rewards without doing PvE ALSO needs to be an issue!

Looks like I'm trying to breach through some thick ice here.
You, PvEer, do not PvP. How does the fact that PvP players -- who cannot step into PvE -- are wearing the same armor as you affect you? Whether you're buying expensive items because you like to play dress-up with your character, or to show off in Kamadan to the other PvE players, the fact that some PvP guy is playing GvG with a Luxon armor shouldn't influence you the slightest. It is not your world and, on the contrary, you can step anytime into their world and say "Hey, I got my stuff with half as much effort as you!".
I simply cannot understand. You have several other ways and rewards to show off if you really want to puff your chest in front of PvPers and exclaim proudly, "I PvE!".
P.S. Ironically, in my eyes, PvE lost its reward system because of farming: the sense of expectance and wonder for the drops gradually subsided in response to ANet's changes to combat it.

XTH is replete with people picking guilds out of a hat or just following trends. Most people I talk to have no idea and don't follow PvP at all, and just pick popular choices. Heck, most people don't even understand the qualification process for the tournament.

The fact that I still haven't converted a single point into zkeys should tell you how much I really care about showing off.
I have followed the implementation of reward points quite closely and, from what I remember, they were meant to be an additional perk for all those players that did like to look good in PvP, but were forced to grind through PvE to do so. Granted, unless you belonged to the top tier GvG it was a long road but it made people happy, even though what they were dressing their characters as had an effective value of zero.
It was simply a different and separated, albeit difficult, way of personalising your PvP character's plain looks. Compared to the easy (you don't "lose" in PvE) but lenghty and boring (to some) PvE road, the items generated could neither not be traded nor used against the mighty Charr.
They weren't "PvE rewards", but rather PvP rewards that looked like PvE items, which could not be obtained by PvE characters for the simple reason that they were not the same type of reward. I'd understand your angst if PvPers could get actual PvE items to use in PvE, but red gear is nothing more than smoke.

The same way that a Bambi doesn't have the same wow-factor that it did years ago.
That's just a game getting older so it's irrelevant.
But I am curious, what other rewards are exclusive to PvE players the same way that is the shiny zoo is to PvPers?

The skin. It's the skin that makes a sword worth more then just a few gold.
And what do PvP rewards share with PvE rewards?
The skin.
People are paying for a skin. And what this system does is introduce more of these skins into the game.
If the value of an item is also defined by the rarity of the skin - what will introducing more items of that particular skin lead to?
1. the value staying the same
2. the value rising
3. the value dropping
If the problem of the XTH is that it provides an additional way of reaching PvP rewards then the problem can pretty much be because:
1. The problem is providing an additional way of reaching the rewards.
But since an additional way is something that PvP players do not seem to have an issue with when it comes to obtaining PvE rewards, I guess this can't really be the issue.
2. The problem is that the rewards obtained in this way are PvP rewards.
In which case, I guess somebody will just have to learn how to share.
PvE-ers did.
chaosincarnate87
for me, its not that im mad they're taking away my free stuff, i already have enough shit as it is tbh. its the matter of which was addressed in the OP in that, what happens with gw2 when there is a problem like this? it just makes me wonder how much effort they'll put into that game as well...

Now, if those RPs were only being spent on red items it wouldn't be a big deal, but let's step away from the PvP world for a moment. Zaishen Keys caused a massive influx of gold out of nothing for each player, the amount of which depended on much real cash the player invested on buying accounts = gold generators. I don't have an MD in Economy but I don't think it takes that much to realise that something like this would break shit up.
I'm not going to respond to "waaah PvPers always have it better" whimpering as, by experience, it has never led anywhere.

This PvP vs PvE flaming stems from ANet trying to encourage PvEers to PvP through zkeys PvE rewards. Other than generating more flames, ANet fails with their idea of zkeys, to encourage more PvEers to PvP. People who are not interested to PvP are simply not going to PvP whether XTH is up or not, or whether they have zkeys or not.
Gold and rare items are too easy to earn nowadays that they dont need to PvP to obtain them. I wish they would delete zkeys altogether. They do more harm to the PvE economy than good.
As for XTH, after such a long wait, I doubt ANet is serious about fixing it. Too bad a feature was removed from this game. If they are not going to fix XTH, then they should remove all zkeys as well. Otherwise this flaming thread is the result of zkey rewards which ANet causes! Please stop introducing PvE rewards for PvP-only activities, and messing up PvE!
What I hate most is to see PvEers farming RA/ZaiShen Challenge and flaming the XTH, just so that they can have their exclusive access to the stupid zkeys. If you want to farm, please farm PvE, not PvP. If people are really interested in PvP, then there is no need for a PvE reward system, so we should get rid of "the zkeys from balthazar's faction/tournament reward points" concept altogether! If ANet wants to keep the zkeys in the game, make it so that people can only earn them from completing tough PvE elite quests/missions, since it is basically a PvE reward in the first place.

You know if you guys really wanted XTH fixed that badly, you could throw a couple thousand $$$ their way and put some people on it.

In fact I got a buch of accounts to abuse XTH aswell and did that for a couple months, but I feel it was completely wrong and despite the free money I feel really happy it's not coming back anytime soon. XTH was the thing that made me practically quit actively playing the game, it took away the last little incentive to play I had.
XTH should never come back, at least unless it's rewards are completely changed (to something untradeable).
I hope the idea of giving lots of free money to owners of multiple accounts dies in hell and won't return in GW2, or I may not be buying that game at all (would much rather play a subscription mmo than an undercover F2P with great advantages to those who pay extra).

I'd love to see it come back. I enjoyed making the picks, checking the results, watching on observe, trying to figure out which HB'er was which, picking up the reward points and getting a guild group to head to the chest and see who got what. It was fun. Personally, I never bought a second account, never sold a key and never got an expensive drop out of the chest. It wasn't a money fount, but it was fun. I hope they manage to work it back into the game.

Here is a solution to the OP who gives a BS reason about it bridgin PvE and PvP and all that nonsense.
Bring it back but have NO reward, especially frickin Zkeys. Or how about the best prize you can get would be 100g.
Lets do that and see how many people continue to make picks and support the XTH.
IMO the only reason people make threads about wanting the XTH to come back is so they can continue to abuse it with their multiple accounts.
Good riddance to the XTH

Lol @ the QQ in this thread.
If they bring back XTH, then they should at the very least make zkeys untradable or reduce the gains by a lot.

When I read the part about zaishen coins being used in place of tournament rewards points, I stopped caring for this to come back so I prefer that gets updated and done with.

Make zkeys untradable if it does come back any time soon.
If they arn't planning on making zkeys untradable then don't bring it back.
I, personally would like it to come back JUST for the zchest, but make the keys untradable.

I did not play GW for ages.
But I bothered to log in to the XTH on three accounts every month, randomly pick names and... make quite a lot of cash this way.
ANet was dumb to bring even more gold into the game with this system, that also basically rewarded people for guessing bad and wrong, as you could hardly fail to win anything with this system.
At least they should have gotten the idea that they need something better than this for GW2. The general idea is not bad, after all.

WinterSnowblind
Most of it's already been said, but I feel I should throw in my thoughts as well, just to make sure everyone gets the point.
But yeah, although it made it very easy to make money, it was something that brought me back to the game each month. Since it went down, I haven't logged on for months, and am unlikely to do so again until Halloween. With the lack of new content, the monthly "wellfare check" at least gave us something to do, even if it was just buying new armour sets or grinding towards titles for the HoM.

But XTH reward should stay in PvP only since it is PvP centric. In other words, Balthazar's Factions and TRP should not be tradable for zkeys ever! Zkeys are PvE centric and should be reserved for completing PvE challenges only. The two should be seperate, otherwise people would compare PvP challenges to PvE challenges and argue about fairness when it is two different worlds in the first place!
Clone
I'm somewhat torn. I never really liked the idea of the monthly Guild Wars welfare check in the form of ZKeys. On the other hand, am even less of a fan of Zkey related title tracks that most would never get close to maxing.
In the end, I think the main issue is how ham-handed anet was with this thing. Regardless of whether it was a good idea or not, it was broken more often than not, and its long absence implies they have no idea how to fix it. So, in the sense that it was there, it was broken, and it didn't get fixed, I'd have to call it a failure.

I wouldn't mind if they came out with something like "Sorry, but we realized we made a mistake in the way we implemented the XTH" or "We decided it's too low of a priority" or whatnot. But to keep on stringing us along is just silly.
BTW I'm all about GW welfare, lol. I really liked being able to shell a little extra RL cash to legally get some extra IG money. It's not like it put me at an advantage over others. I just like to play barbie with my heroes and use a lot of lockpicks.

Screw XTH, Just make double Zaishen Reward Weekend.
Reward Points should be given out after achieving a tournament win, title rank up, or consecutive wins. Z-keys if made untradeable will make too many people angry. I don't think anet wants to do that anymore then they have.

People are talking about abusing Xunlai with multiple accounts...
How is this abuse?
You are using a service that Anet provided. You are not botting or spoofing items, or whatever else is illegal.
So you get more keys because you have more accounts, what a big abuse of the system that is! /sarcasm
Xunlai benefited Anet, because people actually went to buy more accounts. Maybe it was an insignificant amount, maybe not, but it got Anet more sales. Sounds like a success to me. Anet is probably sad that Xunlai turned out to be so buggy. There's nothing like building up an architecture that has a flaw at the base.
