How I would do the Orb Buff

in WvW

It seems to be pretty obvious by now that an overwhelming amount of the community wants nothing to do with this orb patch. The center land does look nifty and all but that hardly makes us want a global buff for holding some shrines at the center of the BLs. All this seems to do is promote one server to triumph all making open field fights unbalanced. What’s even more annoying is that it will destroy GvG as we know it. Now that being said I like how they are adding more WvW content and the new area looks attractive enough. But I would have the buffs work in a different way.

-Keep the +1 point for stomping someone. Great idea.
-Owning the center area puts a debuff on all towers in the map called “decay” that constantly damages the walls/gates.
-Owning the center area puts a buff on all Yaks causing their base speed to be increased. I say base speed so when the +33% speed boost from swiftness is added they receive that buff as well.

To me WvW is a massive supply war. Yes stats matter but we don’t want that to be the main focus on who wins. Maybe it’s just me but when I find someone when I’m roaming I enjoy a fair fight.
