Guild Wars 2

So the guild claiming system seems really broken to me. Not only can you not buff a tower or keep that needs it if someone else has claimed it, but it’s possible for clueless people to claim things with no upgrades at all. If you are running with a group that is hitting supply camps, if your guild isn’t the one that gets claiming rights for the first four minutes and the guild that does get them doesn’t have +5 supply buff, you will more than likely move on without your 15 supply. The guild claiming system in this game needs a serious rework.

It creates a system where your server doesn’t like guilds that claim without useful buffs and guilds that have useful buffs can’t use them. There is very little collaboration to it. Instead of allowing any guild with a buff to add it to a control point so the server can benefit, we have a system which emphasises guild bragging rights at the cost of co-operation and contribution.

simple solution would be to make it more difficult to claim something. meaning a guild can not just click something and its claimed. Make it so you have to have a guild buff running to claim. Called guild claim buff. Just like the other guild buffs that have to be researched and activated. Then people who just click claim wont be able to. And the ones that are able to will think twice about doing so.
