I must admit, there was a certain sense of satisfaction last night whilst assaulting Vizunah’s NW Garrison Gate, which was lined with terribly placed Siege weapons, and going through and systematically killing all of them.
Over the course of 10-15 minutes, 7-8 Arrow Carts, 1x Trebuchet, 1x Ballista and 1x Catapult all died.
If people placed their assets with a modicum of common sense though, this wouldn’t happen. If Elementalists want to AOE the top of the walls, they have to get close enough that they get slaughtered if the defenders have any common sense.
I’m all for ArenaNet fixing AOEing through walls (so long as they fix the other issues relating to AOE and Forts/Keeps), but Meteor Shower doesn’t go through walls, it rains down on top of them. It’s a relatively long cooldown, channelled cast that is entirely based on RNG (Meteor placement within the AOE Area). It’s also damage that can be completely avoided by players, and as a spell in open-field WvW serves as little more than an Area of Denial tool.
