The out manned buff needs modification. The current buff has ZERO incentive to attempt a defense or comeback when server populations are grossly out of proportion.
I would love to know what threshold even triggers that particular buff. Is it two to one, is it 4 to one. It feels like it doesn’t even kick in until a 3 to 1 ratio at the minimum.
Regardless, I would prefer seeing a +stat increase for the underdogs, relative to the imbalance against their opposing teams. Such that of the 3 teams in WvW lets assume team A(100players), B(50players), and C(25players). Teams B and C are huge underdogs, even combined against a team A.
Members of teams B and C should get a +%_to_all_stat/dmg_buff that allows them to take on more at once from team A in that map. That buff would scale differently for team B players compared to team C players.
It would make things much more interesting and help in the night capping problem and population imbalance problems that occur.
They way things are now its just silly and demoralizing and not fun in any sense for the severs who do not have an active or organized WvW community 247.
Its also is skewing server populations and transfers to the most winning servers. If you look at the full US servers, the FULL ones are the top WvW ones, with the expception of the unofficial RP server that has its own reason for being attractive and popular outside PvP.
Imho, week long matchups are TOO long. I liked the shorter a 24 hour matchups.
