Hey everyone,

One of the most important parts of Guild Wars was, and still is, the Guilds.
The main part of a Guild is it's Guild Hall, it's where people gather, and prepare.

What kind of designs would you like to see for the Guild Halls?
A treehouse style hall designed by the Syvani, mechinal workshop of the Asura, or something else?

Also, what kind of usage would you like to see the Guild Halls doing?

im sure people who are gonna play charr would like the guild hall to look kind of like an ironforge from hell with like fire and lava everywhere lol but ill stick with sylvari. anyway i dont think the guild halls can be anything more then they are, A place for guild memebers to gather. The Alliance im in usual has 1vs1 matches with a prize in the end, survivor, plenty of player moderated events. Theres also plenty of npcs in the guild halls...not sure what else we can do with em

I know what you mean. How about personal rooms for Guild Members?

well if there will be there would be ALOT of rooms

 It would be easy enough, could just instance them.

Just have an NPC that would "Take" you to the player's room.
Your room can have your achievements, awards, storage space, misc items.

Guild halls are more than places for people to gather and have private merchants.  Guild halls are the battefields of GvG action.

I'd really like to see non-instanced Guild Halls. I personally never found the Guild Halls in Guild Wars all that interesting because they were instanced.

these are all nice features but we cannot forget that the devs are trying to make the game playable on average computers just like the first GW so we cant go all crazy here. They have also said that there will still be major instants but there still be a persistant world.

I want Guild Halls to become Guild Towns,

and would be built in the Mist, along side other Ally from your Server. And allow enemy Servers to lay Siege to it, and vis vers

Now that would be both Cool and Emotional

Except it would NEVER happen! The mechanics to impliment that just wouldn't work. It's a nice idea, but not for Guild Halls. Though, quintessentially, you've just described Factions.

When it was announced that GW2 would be an open world I immediately thought "Oh the things they can do with a Guild Hall" that being said lets look at some mechanics from other games, Age Of Conan has guild forts that can be built up and sieged by other guilds. WAR has RvR forts and such that are guild controlled and games like Vanguard have player housing and GW1 has cities that are controlled by guilds. So this is my idea as to what I would like to see... A Guild hall in an open world(like the war keeps) that can be built up by the guild to reflect wealth and race(like AoC) and player housing that can be built within the Guild Hall thus making them Guild Controlled towns that can be sieged at any time.... to me if this could be done right or done at all would be an amazing addition to game play even if instanced.

personal rooms in guild halls would be awesome!  Rather than having a hall of monuments, you could just have your own personal room.
