Guild Wars 2

This true? I heard FA and DB is doing it against TC. Checking to see if this is even possible.

You can’t pick up an orb once it’s placed on an altar no matter which side you are on.

As ArenaNET might tell you:

1. We don’t discuss Guild Wars 2 Orb in forums
2. Refer to 1.

GW2 WvW Orb is a dark area you will want to avoid in the forums. No developer will touch the subject. Large guilds have told ArenaNET they like the Orb situation — every gaming developer listens to the biggest guilds (regardless of their IQ)

Orbs are an interesting mechanic, it’s yet another way that Anet attempts to show everyone that WvW is not supposed to be balanced. The best teams get the orb! Oh but it’s bugged!

This solution has been repeated numerous times but… Anet please remove orbs untill the machanic is working as intended.

That being said, look at the mechanics, switch them. The losing team needs buffs the winning teams just want competition, give them the magic find bs… Or better yet come up with something better.
