Instead of a fancy “neutrality” system or instances, just make the EB starting locations cycle like the borderlands do (weekly) and the problem is solved. The issue arises when you’re stuck in one rank spot and can’t reach the opponent’s areas since keeps/towers in EB are generally harder to cap.
It was annoying for me to have to switch servers for a week to get the remaining completion for EB, and now that transfers are paid, it’s flat out unfair that you need to pay gems to get completion. I’d actually prefer WvW stay in completion so that PvE completionists like myself are forced to try out their trademark PvP. To be honest, I’m not much of a PvP person, but WvW is quite fun when I get bored of the usual Orr/FotM grind.
Technically you’re supposed to switch color regularly. Your color defines your starting location for each of the four maps. The problem is that it seems to be random, and since you have a 33% chance to be any color you tend to repeat colors alot. I think it would be better if it was a cycle so that every week you were the next color, unfortunately that also can’t work because you could change brackets and join with someone else that was that color. But there is probably a way to make it more consistent.
Unfortunately that’s not how the colors are decided. The color is decided by your score in the bracket (1st = green, 2nd = blue, 3rd = red). It isn’t randomly decided. If it were, it wouldn’t be as mush of an issue, but my server, Blackgate has spent the last few months either in 1st place on one tier or 3rd place in the tier above it. I haven’t been able to even come close to completing blue territory because my team is never in 2nd place. Now with Kaineng putting up a decent fight in T2, my hopes of capping blue keep in EB are out the window.
