Hey everyone I started to play sPvP a few days ago. Only tried hotjoin so far to learn a bit. Problem is I still don’t get what I am supposed to be doing. I just keep running between two capture points or sometimes a capture point and some objective like the Skyhammer or the Trebuchets, where I ambush enemies, capture points or defend them if necessary.
Some of the enemies and allies seem to know what they are doing though (you can spot newcomers like me immediatly) and have optimized builds for what they are doing. Those are the rounds where my team is struggling to even get some points and I don’t know what to do in those situations.

So all help would be appreciated

In hotjoin?

Kitten **it up. ;D

Don’t worry too much about winning or losing – people drop in and out so teams can be very imbalanced. Once in a while you might have a very good and coordinated match, but it’s luck of the draw.
Burst stuff down, get all the buffs, support your team, learn all the blink locations, cap points, try to fight on points, kill as many as you can.

Seriously, just have fun – if your team is severely weaker (ie one less player and other team is all much higher skilled) then don’t fret – either savour the challenge if you feel you can take them all on, or jump into a new match. It should be fun after all.
