Swagger.1459:

Are you seriously asking to keep transformation abuse to avoid, or lessen, being hit in zergs?

No, there is no abuse in tonic use, if it does not give any statistical advantage.
You’ll have to try a bit harder at the bait game

McKenna Berdrow.2759:

…We also plan to make it so you can’t use any tonics in combat going forward, but that will be coming in a later update since doing this work to all tonics in the game is going to take more time to implement and test.

Can we get some insight about what game function this particular feature causes issue?

As it stands, enemy teams get familiarized with your character model, and then choose specified pick teams to pull you from your group. As a regular player, this is subjective to filing it with the rest of (what I call) wah stories, but then when leading a group your whole team dies and becomes no longer any fun.

This particular strategy was employed to throw off those specific pick teams that target the driver only. Is there any way we may be able to come to some kind of compromise in light of this?

If a driver comes over for EU play, they are going to find their time well occupied and their skills well challenged. There is no doubt about this

How does the multipliers affect servers in which ‘prime time’ for that server hosts the least amount of players during such time?

Specifically, we already know not all servers are stacked equal, so what may be considered a ‘busy’ time vs . ‘prime time’ does not feel equal in that regard.

From my personal perspective, this does seem to alienate anyone wanting to play WvW during non-prime hours and forces them to either a) play in the middle of the night during their time completely changing their life schedule for a game because they live in Europe or from elsewhere, or b) Forces them off to migrate to another server so they can be the most effective during the times that they desire to play at.

Also, what I didn’t see explained, if the score multiplier for skirmishes is determined by such busy times, what if the opposing force doesn’t have any players that wish to engage in that time? More specifically, how does that affect scoring on highly populated servers against servers with low turnouts during said prime times?

Just a curious cat here trying to find the scraps

+1 Fridays, and if there’s any consideration, please reinstate that to one hour after daily reset

Some guild raids have been cancelled due to server-wide lag. Agree with the rest of the comments, issue grew exponentially more on the same day as stab changes patch. Not say that’s what it is, but that’s the when. Thanks.
