    If they got rid of GC restriction entirely how would you earn the titles for your GC? As I said before an option to queue under one teams banner would suit me fine and not take anything away from those of us who actually enjoy fighting a hard won battle for our Grand Company and leading them to victory. Then people can play with their friends and there is little damage to the existing system (other than some minor lore bit perhaps on these Free agents).

    Why do you think getting rid of GC restrictions in PvP would mean eliminating your character's GC affiliation completely? The obvious solution is you just accrue achieves relevant to the GC you have picked.

    The basis of this entire argument is people want to play with their friends, personally I'd rather meet my friend on the battlefield if they decided to choose another GC but that's just me. There is no need to remove the GC restriction if they add an option for people to act as a Free agent or just all queue under another party members banner. Without real teams what are you even fighting for? They'd have to retcon the entire lore to explain this. This would be akin to going into WoW back in it's heyday and declaring that you wanna raid against the Alliance with your Horde friends even though you yourself are Alliance.

    My plan would allow others to play together with their friends without changing much about the system and lore as it already exists. Plus there are bigger issues in PvP to be addressed like the current massive class imbalance and the fact that the Ranged DPS LB is nearly worthless. It would also be great if they added a tutorial or training mode against NPCs to get people to learn about their PvP actions. These are the things I think we can all agree need to be addressed.

    You are really overstating the significance of GCs in PvP lore.

    Yeah i kinda like to see familiar faces when doing PvP so merc like option would be pretty good alternative for GC removal, that way you could choose merc for faster ques/play with friends or if your GC already has insta ques you can ignore that option and roll with your GC as usually.

    I am not sure what your ques are like. But the current Grand Company system is so effed up. While I enjoy playing with other rank 40+ people I know from other servers, yes. Do I like a system that is beholden to one group of people locking out at least 50% (being conservative), no. Also some people may not want to see maps built around three teams as they are currently trapped by Grand company system. Also have the Grand Company with lowest que already able to field full premade teams and full alliances (not sure how often that works).

    Also if you haven't noticed achievements aren't even worded the same way as 2.0+ ones are. Just says lead a Grand company to victory not adders, flames, or maelstrom.

    I am only 300 matches away from two thousand played. I was logged in for five hours yesterday doing other stuff. I had 5 games start. If you can find as many people who want to keep the broken system, WHO HAVE PUT IN THE TIME TO REACH 50. As want the system gone I will stop hoping for a fix and be quiet.

    P.S. I already have 2 horses I never even ride the horses in this game are some of the ugliest designed/moving mounts in the game.

    Signed. Such restrictions are stupid and result in huge Queues as well.

    The GC-specific mount achievements reference the GC (e.g. A Line in the Glade IV), and you need to be a member of that GC to get credit for that achievement.

    The non-specific mount achievements do not reference a GC (e.g. Behind Enemy Lines), and you do not need to stay a member of a particular GC to get credit for that achievement. i.e. you could get 100 wins with Adders then change to get Flames and get another 100 wins to complete this achievement.

    Never really understood the lore part either since the gc's have an alliance.
