I am sure they have already considered this, but with no points to control it will exacerbate ranged dominance over melee.

Hope this was taken into account for tomorrows patch (doubt it), lets see if guardians join the not so illustrious place warriors own at this time.

What? I’m sure this makes sense to someone out there but I have no idea what you are talking about at all.

but with no points to control

Out of the lists of features Anet has thrown out there about custom arenas… the option to turn off capture points isn’t one of them.

They only allow skrimaging, dedicated dueling servers and marginal changes to a token SPvP match…
aka. nothing worth a kitten atm.

Only bad melee feel a major squeeze from range (or majority of warriors). And with every class having ranged options, it’s your fault if you don’t diversify and grab a ranged and melee wep. Not to mention the meta shouldn’t shift much in your average CA match, numbers change but the objectives don’t.

Oh no i get you, a ranged melee… that sure makes sense.

This is the exact reason why they balance around conquest. Conquest makes many different roles available due to needing to run between points, stay on or near points. This gives relevance to things like engineer turrets (relevance, not viability) which don’t even move. The enemy will be staying around a point so the engineer turret has a use. But it also makes things overpowered in the same sense because of the way the game is played.

OP, just stop. Your past 10 posts at least have been nothing but spewing bullkitten about “range dominating melee.” Stop playing clusterkitten hotjoins and you’ll see just how long you last staying at range.

I think he is saying its easy for range to kite and avoid melee. Which is true. Especially if you play a guardian.

Or a warrior.

How about they do something to change my and apparently other peoples mind as well?.

As garethh said, there is no option to remove capture points in custom arenas, so I’m not exactly sure why your mind needs changing.
