This. Perhaps the old TA outpost, or else the costume brawl one. An added benefit is you have a place you can PUG people now, which should be very easy with only 2 members required. Might even meet some people to invite into your guild this way.

Umm.. just an idea... but... why dont they just make how you see the skills based on whether your character type is pvp or pve... like if you go to the GH with a pvp char you see the pvp set or vice versa... admittedly i do not know anything about programing or how much effort this may take, but it seems like a simple solution to a simple person


edit... btw i didnt read most of the posts on the 2nd page so if this was said on there... my bad...

Because there are many people that use their PvE characters for PvP so they can get the weapons, armor...etc...

I'm not lazy. I know I can go to a town and set up for whatever I'm doing, but I shouldnt have to just because there are some pvp'ers that cried about not being able to see skills in the form that they would use it, without some sort of compromise for those of us that dont find PvP as our cup of tea...

Instead of doing a full guild hall change..
*I'd be in favor of keeping it and have an account specific toggle FOR THE SKILLS ONLY. Which you would be able to change at the character select screen (something like the ability to see concise and non-concise versions of the skill)
*Allowing henchmen in the guildhall, but then losing the function to enter pvp areas.

The guild hall is a PvX area...and so should be treated that way...some sort of compromise... not "RAWR PUT IT BACK THE WAY IT GOREDENGINEGOREDENGINEGO USED TO BE"

Eh, I really don't get it. Guild hall is designed for guild battles, do you seriously want guild players to have to leave their own hall to look at skills to GvG? I mean you pvp directly from guild hall, YOU DON'T PVE FROM GUILD HALL.

How hard is it to use heros in a place you're going to directly anyways?! Is it so hard to go to the place you're going after you're set up? Does it stop you at all in any way shape or form? Changing the guild hall WOULD inconvenience players GvGing tho because guild hall is where you DIRECTLY go to gvg. People don't meet in RA first to go to guild hall to battle.

/notsigned, doesn't even make any sense.

The same kind of thing applies to the Guild Hall. I don't see how any kind of toggle for this can be done unless the Hall is split into having a PvP version and PvE version. Splitting the hall into two parts doesn't sit well with me, so I'm waiting for someone to come up with a better idea.
Once again I don't like your objections. What on earth is wrong with having an NPC that you can talk to who'll take you to a PvE version of your GH, the same way that the Canthan Ambassador does with different GHs? Why doesn't that "sit well" with you?

Even if i had to purchase a GH again and rebuild it from zero, i would love to have a PVE guildhall, without all the PvP content and without all those henchies around, after all, if we will use any hench for PVE we must get them at the area we are going for all the reasons we PVEr's already know.

Why? well, it is just a matter of taste.
