Guild Wars 2

What does this mean in real terms? A number of times I am sure we should be outnumbered but are not

It means one server greatly outnumbers all your forces on the map or both servers have blobs on the map compared to you.

By? 10% 10? what? cos I know what the term means but what it means to GW in actual terms I do not

In my experience, it usually means you have a whopping 10 players on map and they have a blob big enough to create orange swords (which can be anything from 25 up).

It means what it says. Your outnumbered on the specific borderlands your in. That’s it

The server which has the least player on a map gets the outnumbered “buff”. The actual difference doesn’t matter.

So if Server A has 50, Server B has 10 and you have 11 ppl, you won’t have the outnumbered buff, even though you are clearly outnumbered by server A.
