The ONE thing missing from GW

Yes, I know that there are actually a few things, but one thing in particular is obviously gone: the ability to challenge specific opponents to battle.

In such a PvP game, I can't really believe that this got left out. Now, the only way I can GUARANTEE that I'll ever face my friends in combat is to do so through GvG where they are on the opposite side...

75% of WoW fun PvP was simply dueling. I miss it in GW, and I hope that it is added in.

Duels open the door to idiots who get beat once 1v1 and then whine about nerfing that class on every game forum they can find. This game isn't about 1v1 at all, it's not balanced for it.

Be that as it may, I believe Tozen has a point. I believe atleast one form of PvP in which u can choose your opponents would be nice, not necessarily 1v1 because I do share smiliar feelings with Zai on that topic, but just some sort of battle where maybe your party of 4 can challenege another party of 4 to fight? -- Something along those lines.

If you could fight people in your own guild, the game would then be called "Inter-Guild Wars" :P

Seriously though, I would like to be able to go up against my mates just for the bragging rights...

What I miss is the old days of Everquest when me and my troll guild members would wander the zones - searching for prey - the hunting of players within the environment and chance encounters where you had to fight for your life is what I miss very much. Perdicable mobs showing up on my radar screen kinds ruins it for me - but hey I am still enjoying game so far (even with the lag-well maybe not with the lag)

Tozen has a point, 1v1 dueling should be avalible . I don't think we'll reach a frightening scenario of complaining morons as Ikinsey fears, so ArenaNet should definitely have this under consideration.

Don't get me wrong, I would like to see 1v1 as well, but there is the possibility of some people out there ruining it, but it would be such a great advancement that even with that I would still like to see it. Any form of PvP where you get to pick your pray would be nice.
