As someone who elusively does RvR on Order, I can tell you that fort defences and attacks have become comically easy.
With attacking, it's not longer build m4's and co-ordinate morale drops and areas each warband will go. It's now "wait 30s for them to melt from ranged aoe (because it still hits even if you're hugging the wall) and then dry push while 1/3 are dead or at 30% morale.
Defending, even easier. Stack above the lord room and spam BHA on their blob. Pierce defences means HTL does nothing. If they're not in an organised 2-2-2 WB they melt, even vs pugs. If they are, they have no support and their healers are doing nothing but countering the RDPS. The moment they push the extra damage from melee inside melts them.
Destro have managed to push to plenty of forts, but the RDPS spam, especially the BHA SW meta, has made it almost impossible for them to succeed. There's a reason Altdorf is 5 stars 90% of the time.
Yeah its ridiculous how easy it is. Was in a "meme" WB. We brought 3 SW, 2 Engi up top and were melting whole ORGANIZED WBs that had good players in them. It was comically easy. Engi set up PD, we set up 3x3 BHA and then pressed vengence and people died.
I keep saying it but just **** hardcap BHA. People are all worried about their performance, when tons of other AoE is capped and the DPS still perform well enough. They still have Spiral, Barrage and Lilith, and flame arrow. They would not be neutered by preventing the DoTs from stacking to infinity. It wouldnt even affect organized city WBs because they bring ONE Skirmish SW. It would be the same as complaining Magus/Engi in city WBs are only given one spot.
Yes, I also acknowledge that it would not behave like other DoTs, but it already dosent and even if it did who cares-- something needs to be done about it because right now its ridiculous.
