Guild Wars 2

I’m sure this isn’t the first suggestion, but I could find no other.

A consumable tool with limited uses that, when double clicked replaces your weapon skills with siege maintenance skills (all skills are extreme short range target):

1: Disown/claim – releases or claims ownership of targeted siege. (Only unowned siege can be claimed)

2: Disassemble – destroys target siege. (Only the owner can destroy siege, to prevent griefing)

3: Repair – consumes supply. (Slower than building new siege)

4: Assist – enhances speed of some actions, marginally. (Limited number of assists per siege, depending on action). Locks to target siege. Any movement breaks assistance. Movement of ‘driver’ moves other players. Applies to movement and rotation, not reload speed.

5: Move/release – extremely slow movement rate, causes vulnerability. (Movement rate dictated by type of siege. Can be assisted. Has a movement cap. Possibly limited to owner or unowned siege). Use of skill locks player to the siege, a second use releases them. Some siege requires assistance to move: Arrow Cart : 0, Ballista : 2, Catapult : 4, Trebuchet : 9. Movement rates should not exceed the speed of rotation available during standard use.

I can imagine 30 players only being able to move a treb at an extremely slow pace, or 3 moving an arrow cart at near walking speed.

I do think it is silly that they have decided to put wheels on most of the siege but it is unable to be moved. I also like the idea of salvaging siege and getting something back out of it (not fully what you put into it) so that when you attack a keep with a smaller force you don’t need to have as many supply runs to build siege on the second door/wall.
