I agree with OP. There is so much wrong with the changes to walls. For instance, you can usually hit more than one wall at the same time with a cata/treb. That means you have to rebuild two walls to 50%+ before they go back up, making defending that much more difficult. Stagger the breakable walls - in red EBG keep, for example. Make it so you can't hit two walls at the same time. Offer defenders some semblance of a chance to defend.

Exactly. Large group right up against the wall with Catas. Can't hit them with any counter siege, not usually (ACs are useless). Here's an idea: Catas don't hit walls if they are too close to the wall. They have to be back a bit. 🙂

Nah. If you want no siege weapons, go play sPVP. WvW had siege weapons as a distinct feature.

I wonder about that one. What, exactly, does that mean? "Siege golems no longer cause capture objectives to be contested in WvW." Does it mean if you leave an unmanned Siege Golem in an objective, when the guards attack it, the objective doesn't get contested?

It's because of relink. Guilds preparing for reset. Getting their squads together. Sorting out professions, etc. Why would there be a queue on a map when the whole thing resets/relinks in an hour?

I was thinking of something along these lines the other day. Specifically, around some congestion in EB. I thought it would be interesting/hysterical to restrict what servers can actually go into EBG to those servers whose own borderlands are mostly controlled by them. For instance, blue would get booted out of EB if they didn't have their Garri and at least 2 towers in their own borderland. Mag would go crazy, so that would be funny 🙂 But, unfortunately, that would be too restrictive. So, then I shifted that to simply: you can't attack SMC unless you have control of your own BL (Garri and 2 towers. Maybe a Keep as well). If you don't control your own BL SMC walls, gates, and guards become invulnerable to your siege. Now, if you had SM and lost your BL, you could still defend, but you couldn't recap until you got control of your BL again. It would be funny if a group was in the SM lord's room and all of a sudden, because they lost their own garri, the Lord becomes invulnerable 🙂

If they hit that high, they get constant messages on their screen "Go outside and get some air, fer crissakes!"

Soon they will change walls and gates so they are made out of paper. You'll be able to break through them with a loud fart.

My top 5: 1. Haxxors x 5 There. All done. It's insane how many T3 keeps we've lost with no swords and some invisible force hitting the Lord. It's amazing.

I agree with you. And, like you, I have no idea if the Devs even have any sort of long term vision for WvW.

The Sword is only for roaming mobility, nothing more. I cleanse by being in Shroud (Death Magic: Shrouded Removal), using Elixir of Bliss, and Putrid Mark (Staff Skill 4). It's still early, but it seems I am killing NPCs and players quicker than with Pistol/Torch or whatever other Harb build I've tried.

Tried a condi reaper hybrid that sort of worked, but am having more success, roaming in WvW, with a Dual Swords Cele Condi Harb (that's a mouthful!). Just 2 swords and a staff. Pistol was too slow anyways. Seems to work well. Three Elixirs and I had Signet of Undeath - but swap that out for other utility skills while I've been experimenting. Build is fluid too - Curses, Death Magic, and Harb is what I currently have. More mobility than a regular harb and it appears a bit more damage with the 2 swords (along with the mobility, of course). I will try swapping out DM but for now it seems to work: DM: Shrouded Removal, Deadly Strength, and Unholy Sanctuary Anyways, just thought I'd share. Odd build, I know, but seems to work for now. Further testing required.

Huh. I had no idea. I guess I never really gave it much thought. Makes sense, though.

Right. But servers being "full" or not has nothing to do with WvW and everything to do with server population. Which is my point. Edit: Oh, and this: https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001357228-I-Want-to-Delete-My-ArenaNet-Account
