How much can a guild claim in WvW?
Guilds with the prerequisite infrastructure “Art of War I-V” can claim a single keep/tower/camp at a time. There is also a brief cooldown period… about 5 minutes I think between claims. I know this because I claimed a supply camp… and it was flipped by another realm…and then flipped back. I had to wait a short while before I could reclaim the camp.
Be aware that guild buffs… Supply, toughness, precision, etc… are single use only. You get 12 hours of use, but you can’t ‘deactivate’ the buff once started. Each instance is 200 influence.
Me- I have a tiny guild… and Supply is the only buff I can offer. Cost is 200 influence which grants me a 12 hour window to use once activated. After that I have to spend 200 more influence and 16 hours of real time to ‘relearn’ the buff before I can use it again.
The most you can regularly learn is 2 buffs at once; so IF/when you hit a keep that offers 8-10 buffs- keep in mind that the guild spent the whole week… 6-7 days spending influence to acquire them all and can only use them for 12 hours before someone else had to take over.
And then-that generous guild will be another week relearning all those buffs before they can be offered again. Influence depends on how often folks log in and what activities are accomplished in a 24 hour period.
