you should also be able to choose someone to 1on1, or get randomly setup.
perhaps even a option to which class you would like to 1on1 against?
[MERGED - OFFICIAL] Dueling aka 1v1

Make a primary professions 1 vs 1 random arena.
So that
Warriors versus Warriors
Rangers versus Rangers
Monks versus Monks
...
etc
Let players able to issue 1 vs 1 challenge, and the challenged player be able to accept or decline the issued challenged.
This idea, concept of 1 vs 1 has been brought up in this forum, many, many times. It is about time ANET did something.
Furthermore, if ANET is totally against 1 versus 1, they would have made an official statement.
For example, such as their stance on the maximum level of 20.
Unless ANET has made it official that there will be no 1 vs 1, people will always want it.

You act like implementing dueling would ruin Guild Wars. If you don't like dueling, why can't you show your opposition to it by not taking part in it?
Players should be smart enough to realize that builds in 1v1 would not be the same as builds in PvP or GvG.
As for people saying that it would create too much "looking for duel" spamming, the same goes for any new item introduced to the game, etc. Maybe, to prevent spamming, 1 vs 1 should/would only be available in the guild hall.
Personally, there have been many times when I wished I could duel a guildie of mine, because it's fun.
I really don't see how adding 1 vs 1 could hurt the game, but I guess that's just me...
Edit: An even better idea would be allowing 1-4 vs 1-4 battles in guild halls. This would be even more fun than dueling, and would prove somewhat useful in developing builds for just PvP arenas, that way you could choose your opponents (incase you would like to practice against certain classes like warriors, etc.).

Building a 1v1 arena system would just be wasted resources that could better be used creating new and different skills and increasing the AI abilities of the mobs and adding a bazaar system that they promised us way back in August of last year and many other things that should take priority over some silly 1v1 arena.

If ANET made its customers happy by implementing 1 vs 1 into Guild Wars, that would not be wasted resources.

If they implement 1v1 before they implement 6v6 I will be seriously pissed.
onyo
everyone complaining about balanced in 1v1, look at Random Arena.. is that balanced?
So if you're opposed to the 1v1 idea state a reason why you think Warr. vs Warr. or Ranger vs Ranger ect. would be unbalanced.
or even random 1v1 selection!
and that stuff about people building builds just for 1v1... so, it's their character slot to do what they want with it (did you even think about pvp only!), and besides everyone makes builds JUST FOR Random Arena or JUST FOR Team Arena.

Enough Elitism exists in game right now; we don't need guilds forcing people to "audition" just to get in and learn based on a build that has NO in-game usefullness PvE or PvP.
As already mentioned, it has no use in game, but the effects of 1v1 builds would create skill balances that would dirupt the entire GW metagame, front to back and back to front. People call for farming nerfs twice a week in here; imagine what will happen when they start getting their butt whooped 1v1:
"Dudz, plz nerfz Disease! All thems degens notz far! Fireball FTW!!!!!!!11one"
Last, imagine a bunch of 1v1ers in RA/TA. Just think about it for a second. All they know from PvP is that they kick butt with this build and don't need anyone's help to kick the crud out of someone else. "Team? I don't need no stinkin TEAMS! I held the Hall of Solitude for 7 matches; I pwnt u all!"
"WTH! YOU NOOBZ< REZ ME< HACKERS! I DON'T DIE! I 1v1!"
I'm sorry; we;ve got enough people like that in game already. 1v1 is like chum in a shark tank to them.

Regarding the twits. They're screaming for nerfs this very moment, and they're screaming for nerfs based on Random Arena experiences. Yet I don't see ANet bending over for their every little whim.
In fact, only rarely do I see ANet respond to such childish ranting about certain skills. They fix overpowered ones when players bring them to their attention, certainly, but little twitty n00bs are rarely the catalyst for skill changes/tweaks.

Excuse me if this has already been posted (I dont feel like looking through 17 pages)... but heres how i think it should happen:
In a town or an outpost, someone has the option to "duel" someone, just as they have the option to "trade" someone. When/If the person accepts, they are taken to a dueling arena, where you can say... pick certain situations like first to 10 kills, king of the hill, etc
OR
Theres an outpost for 1v1 dueling and you can either challenge people to duels or you can enter the mission and get partnered randomly. If this option is added, i'd appreciate both choosing and being randomly partnered to be options. Depends on what mood im in, right?
This should also be sticky'd.

Do you remember any of the good RPG's? Like say, Diablo 2? WoW? (even though thats not old)
But anyways, what you're saying is almost heartstoppingly hilarious to me. What shows your skill? "OMJESUS I JUST KILLT A RANGER..with 3 other people..IT WAS OWNAGE LOL!!1l11" Not that. To be able to beat people repeditively 1v1 shows your true skill. I believe team fighting is retarded, so what if you can poop and pee all over a monk with 4 people on him. I guess you rock hard man. As for people that say it has nothing to do with the rest of the game, as like Mr. Minus here, what if there was a dueling rank? like perhaps.. after 100 1v1 kills, you get the first rank, after 250 kills, you get the second rank, and its even displayed by your name. Now not only is it fun, you're doing it for something. Ponder on that while I eat nachos.
G'day.

I think the farthest this idea would go is being able to hit each other in the isle of the nameless for training/practice purposes. If this does get implemented like that, i would love to see the Wammos spamming The Great Temple of Balthasaur looking for other Wammos to 1v1

"I don't want to do it, so other people shouldn't be able to do it either"
I've always hated that. People with this mentality should just keep their mouths shut instead of flaunting their ignorance.
I agree with this idea 100%! Betting would be great as well, of course only if we weren't able to exploit it.

I would like to see 1v1 Duels with Ranking and the ability to be randomly matched up with an opponent of similar rank.

Again, here is my suggestion to add to this topic of discussion:
Regarding random 1 vs 1, make it so that players will be able to duel with other players of the same primary profession, i.e:
- Warriors vs Warriors
- Rangers vs Rangers
etc...
But, in order to prevent characters with ubar tanking abilities but with little or no actual killing abilities into the fight, a "qualification round" is required.
Example:
John the warrior wants to random duel another warrior.
W/Mo John enters random 1 vs 1 arena and is greeted with a AI W/x
("x" can be any secondary profession)
The W/Mo John must defeat the qualification round before he can actually fight with other warriorrs in random 1 vs 1 arena.

I don't know if this has been suggested anywhere, but why would 1v1 be random??
I think the easiest and most enjoyable way to introduce a duel arena is to let people pair up themselves.
You get your party of 2 together, enter, and then you duel each other. This is by far the best option for doing duels.
If you want to try out a build against another build, then it's easy enough to just get someone that wants to do the same. Say you want to test our your mes build against a monk and a monk wants to test their build against a mes. They join together, enter, and that's that. They could even introduce 3-4 small arenas for dueling that would be large enough for someone to practice running around in a bit.

i want 1vs1....i dont care if it not balanced or not.
if u don't like it don't play it. as simple as.
i hope it comes soon.
polymock and norn arena are proving that 1vs1 makes sense for the most of us.
for fun factor duels are a great idea......immagine 2 mesmers facing each other or whatever....and seein whcih build/weapon/rune choice is best etc...
bring 1vs1 to GW and revive PvP

It's not that I mind 1v1 PvP, as much as the fact the thought they'd rather make that instead of making PvP into PvP (as in player versus player).
ps: what troubles me more is the mentality of people who want to 1 on 1. In 100% cases of 1vs1 challenges that I've seen, the challenger (that is, a guy who pushed for 1 on 1) was ALWAYS a warrior who thought he has the best ever class build, the one build to rule them all. Now, needless to say, I beat all these wammos in GvG scrimmage, but not a single one of them accepted defeat.

| The time to create a 1v1 RA could be spent on more pressing issues in the game. 1v1 like many other above me has stated would just be rock papers scissors. Furthermore, the arena would have even more pvp noobs than the current RA, with everyone bringing farming and running builds. So basically in order to win a 1v1 RA build, you either have to wait a long time until your opponent leaves or bring stance removal, enchant removal, running skills/snares, etc. etc. Please, we've got enough noobs in RA as it is, no need to make it worse. |

Obuisuly you Can understand and are Ignorant and Second Something like this you should know more out of all of us that it shall "NEVER" be Implemented lol. You might as well Go outside get on your knees and wish that 5 billion dollars fell fromt he sky. But back on Topic adding this would just Ruin the Game. the Game is unbalenced and Ruin as much as it is now we dont need more Crap ruining it. Also there is a 1 vs 1 Arena or so called Allrdy added In case all of you out there cant Read. "WE CALL IT Guild Hall Scrimages" Get your friends together GO there and Fight all you want 1 vs 1. So I see no point in Wasting Programming Power to something we allrdy have WHEN ClearLY SO MANY OTHER ISSUES NEED DEALING with. Titles Grinds Skill Balences RA AB Leachers Newbe System Teaching Bugs BOTS Ebay Gold Selling Better Trade systems ETC ETc the List Continues. |

Actully This Idea is just Stuipd Pointless and Stuipd Really. I use to One vs One untill I came to a Realization and now hero Battle my Friends I want to Pwn. Guildswars is a Team Based Game. Builds used with Others to Maximize Killing and Surviving Power if you want to put it like that. Adding a One vs One Arena would Narrow Down the builds List to 2 or 3 Classes Dominating the Arena. For Example... Ever Heard of Daze? Long Enough Effect and I Own ALL Spell Casters. Ever Heard of Rips? or just Some Idiot on a D/E or E/D or What ever it is that Takes all 4 of us in RA just to Kill. Adding Something like this Would Ruin Game play and Tatics and "Real Builds" For sure. Just Like RA and AB for Example have been Ruined. Lets not Ruin it Even more plz. /NO SIGN EVER WOOOT 1 vs 1 Can be Done in your Guildhall if you Suck that Bad |

wow i really don't understand the community... ya'll shut down any idea that may add something NEW to the game... look if there was a pvp random 1v1 arena there would be nothing forcing you to play in it... yes there would be lots of silly builds but is that not the point of guild wars? adding function to the game would increase interest and replay value. |

Hey, if you're going to PvP, might as well have the option of going solo along with everything else, huh? Maybe even put down a giant free-for-all in Guild Wars 2. That'd be interesting to see, but so many people would be crying foul. Ah well. |

In other words, Dervish vs Dervish can turn into Dervish using Mesmer skills vs Dervish using Dervish skills. Guess which one will win.
Also, the problem is - most battles would end up in a draw since everyone would be running 6 defense skills.
