Guild Wars 2

i saved my home borderland garrison from attacks by contesting hills 3 times… that delayed reinforcements and gave a chance to our outnumbered defenders to clean up the inner. Had to be done cuz they were spawning, taking supplies from hills and run back in… 30-40 seconds and they were in the fight again, while our defenders had no chance to resupply.
if i’m defending a keep with WP, i report what’s attacking it and the timer, so others know if it’s under siege or tagged
a good commander will always send scouts to get info about defenses, supplies and decoy tagging other objectives before making an important move
i find it to be more a problem of communication, few people use the map chat to pass vital information..

from my pov is working ok, i’m a roamer/scout and if a commander is moving to cap a keep i go and contest anything that helps delaying reinforcements. if in a BL, the defender has bay/hills and waypoint in garrison, i go and keep it contested… if not, i contest a tower one of their north towers on the other side of the map.
all is fair in e-wars, except hacking.

30m is ok, countdown timers… maybe.
It’s not a 1 man job to keep the sieges up, have faith someone else will do it… if the equipment expires it’s the server’s WvW population problem, they don’t have any basic grasp of it. I could only see this as a timer problem on extremely low populated servers

i wonder how many bot reports Anet gets… because i find it hard to believe nobody got to tickets 7 days old. i reported some bots and they are still there every time i pass by that area
