The idea of extending the tick time to 15 minutes does not work. Especially if it runs 15 minutes 24/7.
The idea of balancing night capping will not work for many reason prime time and off time can not be combined together. in prime time you have the most fighting so you can equally fight each other in some way or another. But in off time if there is nobody on a team of 50 can easily wipe out the whole map and it doesn’t matter if we get it all back because we can never catch up.
Do the math Anet if someone has a 10k lead do you really think any one can catch up?
It leads to the fact sure we’ll win some battles in prime/daytime but they are fighting too as it is a US server. So having a total turnover wont happen plus at midnight the same thing happens again widening the gap more and more.
Shortening the time or extending the time infact does not change a thing because prime time is where the most fighting goes on and even at 5 minutes tick taking over is impossible.
Balancing the issue is hard ofcourse but this is not how WvWvW is suppose to be handled. Victory goes to the night cappers?
Because it really doesn’t matter what happens in the day we can win slightly but at night we get totally wiped because we are sleeping. Not only that they also have time to fortify while we are sleeping which makes it nigh impossible to even get things back.
What I am suggesting is that the outnumber buff has a direct ratios over people you’re facing. Say you have 100 v 10 I would suggest the 100 33% debuff on all stats and the 10 gets a 33% buff on all stats. The bonus would apply to every single NPC/Player. Something like this to give a fighting chance to the underdog. 33% sounds alot but remember you outnumber your opponents 10x which means you can wipe them out in a group.
What I want to discuss is a plausible fix not adjusting time or anything but a plausible fix.
We at Darkhaven was maintaining the lead ever since Reset but oh look night capping made us lose yet again.
