Josh Davis.7865 I think I've been misunderstood. The lack of defense participation has hurt. I dont sit in a tower and wait for participation. i dont just wait and repair a wall... here is a scenario from last night. So here is an example of repair/siege changes that have impacted Join Red BL at t6 participation... only 2 of you so we decide to take a tower. it takes 50 supps to make a sup cata... so have to run to get supply why building participation timer ticks down cata built. Use cata... no participation given whilst using cata (wall has to be brought down before participation is given) group of 5 enemy descend on you... you die participation still ticking away try again hoping the group of enemy have left have to rebuild cata as they destroyed it run to camp to get supply or change bl to get supply from camp owned run supply back and build cata hit tower again takes 14 hits to get tower down with max skill and max power only get participation when wall drops.. participation now t5 get into tower only to realize that you need more peeps to take it call out for assistance... no one comes run towards camp or sentry to take it to keep participation up... call out to defend bay on home bl forget sentry and head to home bl participation dropping again help defend by building siege and running supps to walls participation now red our zerg comes and pushes enemy the out but I dont get any hits on enemy so kills dont count, participation still dropping repair wall back to 100 participation still dropping and now hills needs defenders... no time to take a camp or sentry.. you spawn at garry and run to hills help build siege again and defend but still get no kills participation now t4 and dropping faster

The patch killed off every mode of play that is not zerg vs zerg

I've been trying to work out why Anet would have made the changes they made to WvW on 9/11/21. To me it seems to have killed off the game play completely. Sure yeah the changes were great for K-training zergs, but defending or small group fun is no longer fun at all. if you defend now you loose participation, there is no drive to repair or upgrade anything. no one comes to defend T3 keeps because what's the use if you get no participation unless you actually kill something. I am truly saddened with the impact these changes have made.

If WvW is meant to be a separate play style to PVP and PVE then make it different... Reward people for making defenses, leveling keeps, towers and camps to higher tiers, reward them for claiming the strongholds on the map and for maintaining them, for sieging them up and for defending them, WvW is not about blob vs blob mechanics... sure people want to fight but they also take pride in leveling property and turning the whole map their own colour... Stop punishing those of us that love the difference WVW has compared to the single mindedness of pvp and the story of pve. it should be about siege placement strategy, about where is best to locate that treb and cata, it should be about where is best to place that arrow cart and ballista. It shouldnt be about can my 50 man blob kill that solo roamer. Make WVW strategic and stop giving in to the the PVP whingers who join wvw for moosive fights, want fights.. get off our borderlands and go back to PVP maps where you belong.
