Guild Wars 2

I love the idea of new updates for the struggling WvW, and a new way to score for your team. But one of my concerns is, “will this be another Orb of Power problem”.

What prevents me from logging in during my primetime in which the enemy has already nightcapped everything because that’s the only way they can win cough blackgate cough, aren’t they going to have massive +150 just like the orbs of power had?

I feel like these buffs should be disabled if you are already ticking over +350 or your enemy has the outmanned buff.

I know in the live stream showing this update they mentioned that they don’t want any kind of debuff for outnumbering your opponent, but I feel like these buffs shouldn’t be activated if you already have the huge advantage of coverage.

The other thing that I don’t like is that you have to STOMP your opponent. I know “mindless zergs” aren’t the best option but why can’t organized large scale group play get rewarded for wiping out the enemy organized group? All this does is give Thieves more reasons to run and hide and give certain classes like Elementalist and Engineer to abuse and exploit mist form and elixir stomp enemy players.

Other than that though, it’s nice to have an update to WvW and be getting improvements. I see these as positive changes and makes Borderlands more interesting.

will this be another Orb of Power problem

Yes. Larger server can put people on the points and protect them from smaller servers.. with a cannon + AC .. yayyyyy…

Sounds like so much fun, tons of fun. if your behind or losing be prepare to lose even harder.
