I have seen this a few times on our own supply camps we managed to defend. Enemies kill the Supervisor and then get in the circle and the bar increases… almost until it is full. We manage to kill them and res the Supervisor.

Shouldn’t the bar reset? Isn’t this bugged? I mean it stays as it is… which would mean they only needed a 2nd attack and then like 1 second to fully capture it.


Also suggestion: Make the 5 min timer reappear after ressing Supervisor(and same for Lords in towers, keeps). Would give the defender some time and increase the value of tactics cause just zerging the defenders until they give up would not work – they can take could take a rest for a few minutes and return refreshed making it easier for them to continue fighting against an overwhelming force(especially for weaker servers).

From the experience I’ve had: The bar is resetted, when the enemy go back in the bar will be at 0. Just the screen is bugged.
(this is assuming that no invader is left there, so the re-cap can start. If there are still enemies it’s only normal that the bar stays where it is. Though I always thought it to be weird that 1 person can neutralize a cap from 100 ppl.. In GW1 the group with more ppl would have more capping “power” .. maybe because this would promote zerging even more…

Nooo!!! to you suggestion, I’ve fought in a garrisson for like an hour before, trying to cap, the lord being ressed tons of times by suicicide warriors, otherwise we probably would have capped it, hell, the first bannering of the lord was probably the reason the fight even lasted that long.
Honestly, if you’re holding something for more than 5 min, it should be how well YOU fight that determines you’re keeping the circle, not the auto res on some pve vet.
