Make supply drop from Dolyaks in WvW. Not all the time…only when a server holds a minority of a map.

With this implemented, teams would be able to “raid” supply caravans in order to make up for the supply deficit that results from not having many (if any) supply camps in a given zone of WvW.

Make the supply an item that they carry in their inventory so it can’t be used immediately, requiring them to take it to a tower/keep/etc and put it in the storage there. This way, a single Dolyak could yield an individual player more than the 10 supply limit (to be dropped off at a supply spot), and fast movers (Thieves/Rangers) would have something to really stand out by doing.

Or, you know…defend your supply lines instead.

Based on the posts seen here and in the WvW forums, I think it’s clear that defending them is not the issue, it’s having the supply to retake them after a huge server rolls over the entire map.

So the solution is to make it even MORE attractive to attack dolyaks?

I don’t think you thought this through.

Not to mention the fact that the servers that wind up on top like that don’t get there through luck. I guarantee you their supply lines will be well-defended.

Except, Dolyaks do sometimes drop an item which grants you 5 supply on pick up.

I thought this was the case, but I haven’t had it happen in a few days. Still, it would be nice to be able to pull a “supply crate” off of them that can be delivered to a quartermaster and give a keep like 20 or 30 supply.
