FINALLY! You muster up the money to get this giiiiiiiiiiiiiant hall for your guild. Looks great, awesome place to meet.... only problem... it is a little bit... plain o.O Is it just me, or is that all guild halls are.... meeting places? I mean if they are.... then wow... we use like 1/1000 of the space available :/ I mean it is great to have a meeting place..... but it is soooooooo big..... and well..... there is really not much to do with all that space o.O

I was hoping for perhaps a section of the place to be for 1vs1 training.... another maybe for other similar things. Maybe a way to invite ppl from other guilds to ure guild hall Maybe even, people could travel to a special section of another guild's guild hall to see what they have for sale Anyone else want to share their opinion?

Yes 1v1 would be awesome. Yes it would.

I don't think they're bland at all, they offer a tremendous amount of flavors to them and the variety is better than I would ever have hoped for.

But they're not meeting places, they serve a very specific purpose: GvG. You knew that, right?

1vs1 training is pointless. If they added a scrimmage court for 8v8, 4v4 practice that would be swell and I've been asking for it some time now.

Well yes I know that it is for GVG..... but while u are not competing in GVG.... wpuld be cool for it to have OTHER features Also, to clarify, I do not mean bland as in "ewwww this Guild Hall looks like crap!!"... I mean lacking use Perhaps that was the way it was intended? One big arena?

I like that 4vs4 practice idea.

Why is 1v1 pointless? It's the perfect way to test one build against another and see, purely, how well one can fair against another.

simply put this game is not about going solo, it's about teamwork so if you want to test a build test your overall TEAM build instead

Also I think, with many it would help them determine who is the more efficient monk, warrior, mesmer etc etc.... and give tips to those who arent as good Now if we could invite members from other guilds to do 1vs1 as well.... well I have a score to settle

You could do that just as easily in a larger scrimmage, and 1vs1 would give you a lot of chest-thumping, prick-waving dickfights and self-proclaimed 1vs1 masters, whereas it's not really a balanced or viable means of competition.

Now forgive my ignorance, but can u challenge your own team mates in a guild to a "inner-Guild" battle? See that was my idea with teh 1vs1 or maybe 4vs4. Inner Guild battles

BTW this isnt a Troll, rant etc.... just suggesting an idea

you can do 1v1 by arranging ahead of time with another guild. for non rated challenge and only 1 of you from each guild enters mission. then you meet away from npcs and fight it out until you get bored.

agree that 1v1 is mostly pointless. at best it would produce valuable test data. at worst, and will probably be the case. it will start a whole new round of nerf threads because ppl won't understand why they can't throw random skills on their bar and win all the time.

they might be bland, but i still want one. just having a place to meet specifically with my guild is a convenience that outweighs the lack of stuff in the hall that there is to do.
