They need to enlist that pride, it is needed to drive the story line in each nation, to introduce pvp and numerous other things.

I think the fact that they added GC specific salutes reinforces the pride point.

It's in no way a bad thing cause they're not taking anything away, they're just giving you more if you're more dedicated.

It's just bad that they did it so late in the game
If i have the oppurtunity to earn more with doing it with the people from the same GC, then yes, they are taking my drop rates away by penalising me. By how much is uncertain at this point.

The salutes were a good implementation and I feel enhances the pride/individuality of the company.

But I guarentee you there will be parties being formed, demanding same company for the highest chance of drop rates out of ignorance.

A lot of players relly on public dungeon raids and those people will be effected.
