How about introducing some to the BL’s? For those of us that remember Orbs, the exciting part of the day was when the Orb was out in the open field and on the move. Everyone was alerted to the event, and knew exactly where the action was taking place. With that in mind I’d like to see these sorts of meta events in WvW.

For example, some sort of random, or player activated mass dolyak supply train from north camp to garrison. Something like 500 supply in one go that’d be worth the time for a major defending force to escort. But also a big enough threat for an enemy response force to come attack.

If you really wanted to shake things up, PPT could be balanced around this same sort of idea. Perpetual siege warfare all over the map is great, and I wouldn’t suggest removing that. However, if PPT surrounded meta event tower/keep/garrison capturing, then players could know when and where to show up to fight over it. So a big orange ring would surround bay and remain there for an hour. This shows up on the map for all to see, along with notifications etc etc. If the current owners defend it, they are rewarded with PPT. If those who dont cap it, they score the PPT. You can still cap anything anywhere else in the map, but it won’t amount to PPT, only standard rewards. Might also be a way to controll “night capping” and super stacked servers.
