Guild Wars 2

Just a small message about supply camp.
With all the actual output damage the supply camp are very very very easy to flip even alone… Most of the time with a zerk build you can take a camp before the sword pop, or just after…
To have fight defender should have time to come back and defend.
It should be easy to take undefended camp, but not that fast… Even the few T2/T3 camp that I have see can be taken very fast and without any issue (it’s a little more complicated on ABL with scout and the need to kill all guard).

If you add the fact that now is close to impossible to upgrade camp because you need too much dolly delivery and we have a big issue…

Upgraded camp are very important to help defender to hold them against small roamer team (1 to 3). This give more fight for everyone because at off peak time you don’t have enough people to attack defended keep.

Supply camp should have iron guard immediatly (or reduce the time needed to unlock that upgrade and reduce the cost to build that upgrade for camp !) and dolly needed should be reduced a lot, like 5 / 10 / 20. Best of all, bring back the old way to upgrade the supply camp. Because I understand that tower and keep need supply to upgrade, but as supply camp produce is own supply there is no link between dolly delivered and upgrading the camp.

I know that we will probably see no change at all about that, but as scout / defender I think we need some improvement on supply camp with the damage output we know now and the new upgrade system.

Originally, camps were balanced so that it was very difficult to solo and impossible to solo when upgraded. I guess that’s power creep for you…

ANyway, I think you’re right that camps should be more difficult to take, but I disagree slightly with the method.

I think camp upgrades should be very cheap (because they get flipped very easily), but not free. Make players have to remember to do something in order to get the buff (e.g. craft the upgrade in their guild hole). Players complained about auto-upgrades, saying it took away things that had to be done.

if you want that player pay something just bring back the old upgrade system he was fine ! The new one is bs…
And yes camp where balanced before, but with the power creep now it’s just a joke…

Eh what? Upgraded camps where never impossible to solo and they’ve never been diffucult at anything less than T3. Perhaps it wasnt as easy as they are now, but still.

camp should not be impossible to take alone (at least not upgraded), but at least it should not be so easy and so fast.
