Re-design WvW ruins.

Make it a 1 vs 1 mini arena.

Please support and add your thoughts on how this could work, or maybe not work.

I thought it was a mini arena:

  • There’s space round the outside to watch (one is even arena shaped with tiered seating),
  • The opponents have to stay in the square (small area like a fixed arena),
  • and if you get bored you can build temporary siege (although I’ve not seen this actually used).

Oh and if you stand in three for long enough it helps the BL teams (strategic value).

I think the potential is there, we just don’t use them fully as players.

  1. They are full of gankers, who would go there without a zerg?
  2. So nobody goes there and
  3. the gankers move on,
  4. the ruins are deserted.

Teh Logics.

Nobody at Anet loves WvW like Grouch loved PvP. That’s what we need, a WvW Grouch, but taller.

You should try it, the results are hilarious. My old roam group used to build a cata on the southern ruins for sw tower and we would build the cannon. We went 4v20ish on multiple occasions using the cannon and knocking people to their deaths when they tried to jump up and get us.
It also helps to build a ram at the top for the damage reduction and that nice long fear. Bonus points if you down someone in front of the ram and use it to launch them off lol.

Ruins make for great dueling spots, gives you a way to counteract too much stealth and invulnerable as well, whoever ganks the other or caps the ruin first wins

Delete it. Put a huge lake with a small island in the middle. Maybe populate with some krait.
