World vs World - introduction | Competition Guild Wars 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

WvW stands for World versus World, which is a second mechanism of fighting with the living player. In this case, instead of fighting on small arenas, battles take place on a huge maps where dozens of players fight simultaneously. As in the PvP your lvl is raised to 80, but you have an access to skills you've already learned and equipment you've found. Because of that you should play in WvW after getting powerful items and skills during normal PvE missions.

To begin WvW press B key and choose Go to World vs World. You'll be transferred to the chosen map. The second option is to use the proper Asure's Gate from Lion's Arch inside the Fort Marriner.

In one WvW three worlds-servers take part.
