I’m not really sure how to phrase this so please, bear with me. Also, if you can think of a better way to say it, or have anything to add, please do so.
When an eventt is happening near a Way Point, that Way Point becomes contested. This makes sense but it gets very annoying when out of control. I play at night most of the time and as such a lot less players are online which means events tend to stack up. This is unfortunate, especially when in the Straits of Devastation. I tend to play alone late at night and as such I die fairly frequently. More often than not, when I die, every way point near me is contested, meaning that I can not go there. That is very disappointing when you are in the middle of the Straight of Sacrilege and have to go all the way back to Underbelly Waypoint.
What I am suggesting is to create a way that people can use those way points, or revive in some other way that you don’t have to wait for another player or revive orb. That way you don’t have to go all the way back to the beginning of the map.
Also, I’m on right now and counted that the 8 nearest waypoints to me (I’m at The Vizer’s Tower near Shark’s Teeth Archipelago) are all currently contested. If I were to die, I’d have too long of a run back. This is very annoying for when you are trying to complete the map.
