i mean most proper group if not any half decent group is running around like a raid group with every boon up.
 

Easy fix , limit boon stacks on stab to 2 , main reason that boon blob is unstopable is because of the stability push strat , everyone just run in like thomas the train and destroy your eardrums with all spells casted on your squad at the same time , stuns are realy important in every encounter and if u got 5 stacks on stab perma its realy hard to stop a blob rushing you , anet don't care about wvw or pvp , don't bother yourself , unless pvp bring them a fair amount of income , they would update it frequently , i mean just look when wvw was first introduced , they brought a lot of updates regardless of pve being the main focus , and now they even got more devs than before and still no more updates ? yeah anet gave up on wvw , they just bring us the vendors and rewards when we start crying on forums so we think they have still interest in this game mod and to make people go on wvw so the playerbase don't go down to 10 people per server.

Boon / Aura sharing is still an issue.  

Not sure any of this is solvable as it's chicken / egg; you either have more boons or more strips, and that's who wins.

This holds true whether you nerf boon duration gear / boon application rates / etc. or nerf strip application rates / things like winds / etc.--whoever has more boons or strips will win.  It's just right now it is really hard / impractical to have more strips as they've actively nerfed that.
