Guild Wars 2

Reading an other thread, I just learnt about the existence of the Sentry Turret. It’s only available in EotM at the moment. Now I know that for a lot of good reasons, WvW players are reluctant to add anything resembling EotM in WvW, but don’t you think the concept of this turret is interesting? What if it existed in WvW? Or what if the sentries NPC had the same effect? It would add some interesting alternatives to just sit in a tower for hours watching a movie. We could also imagine that the turrets could be deactivated from stealth, if the stealthed enemy was not yet detected, to add counter play. What do you think?

50+ man zergs are not enough so lets add 50 turrets to the mix… THAT will make it fun for sure.

Sorry, I have to say no thank you.

sentry turrents cant attack.

One Prarie Outpost.4860:

They don’t attack. They put little markers on the enemies so you can see them on the map.

As they said when they released EotM, the map is supposed to be a testing ground for ideas for WvW. So everything in EotM stands a chance to get into regular WvW.

I just hope they don’t require a point to be captured to use them, I bought 25 sentry turrets before I knew that >.>

I think the problem is less detecting the zerg and more doing something about it. It would make life suck for roamers, though, while cementing thieves as even higher tier roamers than they already are.
