If you transfer worlds on a Tuesday, you won’t be able to enter the Borderlands or Eternal Battleground maps until the Friday of the following week. After that date, anyone who transfers worlds will be able to play only in the Edge of the Mists WvW map for the duration of their current and subsequent matchup. These restrictions will go into effect on March 28. *Prices will be based on rankings at the start of the tournament, March 28.Īs a part of these changes, we will also implement new restrictions to WvW access after transferring worlds. Tournament pricing (March 28-May 30) Region *Prices will be based on the rankings on March 14. As part of that change, we will be implementing the following pricing for world transfers prior to and during the tournament: Pre-tournament sale (March 18-27) Region Our goal with this pricing structure is to incentivize transfers to worlds that are near the bottom of their respective tournament leagues and to disincentivize transfers to worlds at the top of their leagues.
We’ll be setting prices for world transfers based on world rating rather than population.
We are also making some significant changes to the way that world transfers work as part of the tournament. Matchups will continue to match worlds that are close to each other in performance, rather than following a predetermined schedule – which will make for much more exciting and competitive matches. If two teams have the same number of points, the team with the higher world rating will be considered the higher seed for the purposes of the matchup. This will continue after each round, which means that the matchups are not predetermined but are dependent upon the results of the previous matchups. After that round has ended, worlds will be matched up according to how many points they have in the tournament. The initial round of the tournament will match the worlds in each league according to their world rating. A Swiss-style tournament attempts to match up competitors that have done well against other competitors that have done well. Swiss-style Tournamentįirst, I wanted to explain in a little more detail the tournament structure we will be using. I also want to discuss three things in particular that are changes from how WvW Season 1 operated that we think will make the experience even better than it was before. To begin with, we’ve decided to extend the duration of the tournament to nine weeks total, so the competition will run from March 28 through May 30. When we first announced WvW Spring Tournament 2014, I mentioned that we’d have more details to provide about it.
