what i would like to see in gw is a DM(deathmatch) so you dont depend on a team and simply fight with like 8 ppl in one arena and the one that did the most damage will get like 100 faction when he wins and the other get noting

That does sound fun. :D
I was going to complain about the unfairness to Monks & Mesmers, but with a bit of thought ; Monks can pull out some serious damage reduction, and Mesmers may have the least direct damage but they can get 150+ damage with a single Backfire. Maybe it would all work out ok !

Sound like a good idea to me too. One on everyone basically.

Like I said though, not a bad idea :)

sorry guys, but this just would not work...

GW is all about teams, as no one class can stand up (much less beat) more than one other class and even then of the builds match up.
In the end we will see monks getting pwned by tanks, tanks getting pwned by rangers, rangers getting pwned by mesmers (also laying the smack down on warriors), and everyone pwning Ele's :twisted:

Furthermore, once the assassin and ritualist come in they'll pwn everyone for a good while...

In the end a free-for-all DM only works when all the players are on even ground except for skill level and weapon/ammo aquisition... and GW is much more than that

Guess I did not think about it before liking it :)

Oh well!

Well, I guess we could do a 1vs1 but profession specific...

It would be an arena where there would be M vs. M, W vs. W etc...
There would be a time limit, and if no one is dead during this period, then the server switch opponents...

This would be useful to test self reliable builds...
This way, a warrior can see what his build is worth against other warrior types (W/R, W/M etc...)

A random profession 1vs1 is not a good idea... but I wonder if a profession specific 1vs1 could work....

guess not... as one said... GW is all about team...
