Our first WvW World Restructuring beta begins today and will be live until October 1! We’re looking forward to reading feedback from the World vs. World community.
Beta Start Times—September 24
- European servers: 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time (UTC-7)
- North American servers: 7:00 p.m. Pacific Time (UTC-7)
For all the details on our plans for World Restructuring, check out our latest studio update blog.
In this first beta event matchup, we’re testing matchmaking support for guilds and unguilded players and ensuring the feature works at scale. We’ll keep a close eye on player population balance, queue times, and victory point disparity.
We’ve set up a dedicated WvW subforum on the official forums to collect beta feedback. Since we’re testing parts of the feature in isolation right now, it’s helpful for us to get feedback on how those elements are performing. In future beta testing phases, more of the system will be in place, and it’ll be easier to give helpful feedback on how the total WvW experience feels.
WvW will return to the normal World Linking system when the beta event concludes on October 1.
From today until October 1, you’ll receive a 100% bonus to World Experience, a 25% bonus to reward-track progress, and a 50% bonus to magic find. Thank you for joining in, and we’ll see you on the battlefield!
