So I’m not normally one to complain about things…but you can hit Stonemist from this spot, and for defenders to take it down they need to do a fairly difficult series of jumps while fighting off attackers…probably a bit much. Worth mentioning it’s so high up you can’t counter treb it unless you built a treb smack on the ground somewhere near, which wouldn’t really work 99.9% of the time.

It’s a tower just outside of the southeast keep.

Yeah, I saw a video about that.

I would support keeping it as-is if it wasn’t so insanely easy to defend a jumping puzzle against attackers. So not only is it a REALLY GOOD spot in terms of what the trebuchet can hit but it’s also effectively unassailable. First to arrive wins the prize. Not a big fan of that type of gameplay.

An interesting solution would be to add a ramp.

Its just a gimmic. To exploit it you just build a balista below. Similarly trebs on top of stonemist devastate all siege weapons in range also. If you stand just below, you can nuke the top of that tower with AoEs too.

There are plenty of spots for good siege weapons placement.

That’s… really funny. I’m for leaving it (and other interesting places to build siege weapons) in the game, even if I’m aware I’ll only be in position to use it 1/3 of the time.

That’s funny, I tried to climb that tower and was unable to. I’ll have to give it another shot when possible.

Keep it. Player creativity like this is what keeps WvW more fun in the long term. It’s simple enough to counter anyway, either build another treb, or a ballista, or charge it.

Other than the player spawn point areas, no other areas should get these ‘no build’ zones!
