Guild Wars 2

I like the orbs.
They add an objective and sure, gives a huge advantage. that’s why you should fight to gain them and defend them.

Sure they can be ninjad in the middle of the night and every day when you get home might be one big battle to retake your orb from an over-protected keep but that’s WvW.
If you remove the orbs then what do you have?

DO NOT REMOVE ORBS.

AoE Line of Sight
Attacks through doors of keep is a rather sensitive topic. There are arguments to keep it as it is mainly because it creates one aspect of strategy…

But I suggest giving all AoEs a line of sight, can differ depending on AoE for what makes sense but essentially getting shot by AoEs through walls, trees, doors and floors doesn’t make any sense.
