The other day when I was up in WvW, a group of us hit an Enemy camp and there was a lone NPC that was invulnerable. The NPC stayed invulnerable for quite some time after all his comrade NPC’s were dead and our team kept beating on him to no avail. I think he had some sort of tag that said [Guild]. After some time the invulnerable went away and he dropped in about 2 seconds.

Could someone explain what the story is on this NPC or point me to the appropriate /wiki page as I could no find anything on it there?

Check the buffs that the NPC had. They’re are invulnerable for about five minutes after the resource has been flipped.

You met a Veteran Supervisor. Their names in-game contain the phrase “Guild Claiming”, meaning that to claim a camp for your guild, you talk to the Supervisor.

yup. What Ayrilana and Olba said.

Each supervisor/lord of the camps, towers and keeps have an invulernable buff that lasts for 5 minutes after being captured (Righteous Indignation)This prevents the other team from flipping the camp/keep/tower right after you do. Your server gets to keep it for at least 5 minutes. Sometimes you’ll see in chat that X tower, or camp has Y amount of time left on RI. This is what they are referring to.

There are some third party apps/websites that allow you to see what the RI countdown (if any) is present on any of the camps, towers, or keeps. VERY useful for roaming/havocing.

Thank you all for the info that sounds like that was the issue.

Look for the blue flames surrounding them to signify Righteous Indignation. (People will generally just type “RI” in chat) You can see the buff from a distance.

Sometimes though there is a bug and they aura does not appear for some reason. Clicking and checking for the buff to make sure is always the best option.
