I’ve been enjoying HoT pretty well both PVP and PVE, especially PVP
The new map ‘Stronghold’ is really intriguing and challenging map that Anet have released but also Terribly unfinished Gamemode.
I know this map supposed to be for strategic gameplay to defeat enemy lord(NPC).
Attacker group- Break down enemy gates by using NPC
Defender Group- Defend gates by using trebuchet and taking out enemy NPC
The point was great.

However Many people abused this gamemode by keep healing and booning their npc to out their gates so quick as same as guards
This can easily be done by Elementalist and Mesmer with super tank and healing build
I’ve seen a group of enemy with 1 elementalist and 1 mesmer that brought doorbreakers health from 10% to nearly 100% in a sec and they just break through inner gate within 3 min
This makes me really don’t want to play this map

AT LEAST, they MUST make healing less effective on those minions
Otherwise, it’s gonna kill this map’s potential.

p.s I also don’t like the Mist Heroes Voices.

Wrong forum, should probably be pvp or HoT forums

Btw a damage spec Druid can heal about 40-60% of lord HP with a quickness buff in one avatar sitting. =D =D

Bad players will accuse you of cheesing while better players will say you aren’t cheesing hard enough. This observation spans any game.

A better solution I think would be rearranging the map so other players are forced to interact instead of both sides zerging to the others’ lord so mechanical skill plays a bigger role in winning.

Regardless of whether it is cheese or not enough cheese, the game mode should not be in ranked queue. It is not a competitive ready map. It should be in unranked only.

Healing minions already destroyed the map potential. No reason to do stronghold anymore unless you make a healspam bunker premade cuz it’s all you’ll face most of the time and it’s near impossible to win against even with treb. Very disappointing cuz I really liked the map and I have no friends who pvp. :P

Yes, although when it impacts the integrity of the league than it is a problem.
