Break the blob

[TrainInVain]

No the entire community doesn't agree, I like large fights too, its realm vs realm after all.

What you youngins call a blob, I call sound military strategy. Sun Tzu doesn't have a section saying don,t blob guys its really toxic. Conan doesn't says what's best in life, 6v6 small action fights.

Not agree with break the bobble.
Find a good wb leader, they are not so many, and you can reaxh days with average of 50-70 kills/2-3deads

This is good suggestion on the surface but i guess knock on effect is it would grind campaign to stalemate. It's hard to take a keep even with 20-40% numbers advantage.

As a "once and for all marauder" I can guarantee that this is impossible on the Destro side too. Neither Order nor Destro are stupid. And 5 wh party is no better then 5 WE.XD
This game's environment focuses solely on large groups. Hence, the average player lacks the sense that individual behavior is important. consequently, it's better to be in a stupid wb than a smart solo XD.

And you have total right with 1.4.8 I was played on arak Norn with my friend, in duo from 1-100 (Mara-Choppa) and easily reached level 100 with the supposedly "terribly unbalanced Warpforged."

There were so many paths to achieving this goal—some sought "city for fight," others "free city," and everyone could follow their own path.

You got that wrong. Destro premade can kite the order with lineckacka (AKA 6s of immunities + 30% speed buff). Which means that with good positioning they are picking the kills one by one through knockback+stun combo while maintaining the safe distance. The order simply have nothing like that.

The Blob is a choice. Running to it is a choice. I tend to avoid the blobs and never join any wb leads.

With that said, it would be nice to somehow create an incentive or just a good reason to play the other empty zones.

This and this.

If you go to another, emptier zone you are giving up a lot of crests and renown to do so even if it makes strategic sense (e.g. running boxes to prep a zone for invasion).

Since almost all the incentives are in staying blobbed, people choose to follow the incentives.

You want to "de-blob" the game, provide an incentive for people to split up.

[PeterMore]

I dont see incentives joining blobs, some of then are even not 2/2/2.

Contribute to lock the zone with top stats (protection for thanks, healing for healer etc etc)
Good ratio kill/dead

That gives much more incentive than join blobs.

Find a good wb leader, the game experience will improve a lot.

But if you are IB 2H low gear, or wp 2h low gear trying to contribute with damage and kills... You are condemned.

Blobs are good for Organized wb with good leaders. I like how is It now

[Demonito]

1% per aao so -400% stats, would be fun to solo kill a blob
Please no stats debuff at all, it's already lame in lotd
This would even more encourage blobing, wb will never split with a debuff
Not to mention everyone solo roaming around, breaking balance if wb are equals
One time in pug lotd, everyone had debuff while other side had 2x more people in the blob...
Besides, aao is broken since almost a year :
Long time to refresh + zones of the same race share aao (for ex: reik/praag/cw)
Also noticed a bug when staying for a long time in a zone, I had aao while others didn't

Maybe more dps for keep canons/guards/lord, not with aao but permanently
Just enough so 1wb could have a chance to defend keep against 3

Fix City first plz and give a cool reward for it, mount/pet/trophy on flag...
Anything to motivate the troops pushing to forts!

PROJECT WITCH

Order blobs dominate NA because nobody punishes them.

We’re changing that.

A new guild is forming with one purpose only:
Recruit and organize 50 dedicated Witch Elves into a coordinated anti-blob hunting force.

Not a casual guild.
Not a PvE guild.
Not another warband sitting AFK at keeps.

This is a specialized assassination force built to punish overextended blobs and spread absolute paranoia across the battlefield

Imagine 50 Witch Elves hitting the same target call simultaneously.

That is the goal.

Requirements:
• NA timezone activity
• Witch Elf main or willing to reroll
• Voice comms mandatory
• Discipline over ego
• Willingness to train and coordinate

What We’re Building:
• Standardized builds
• Organized strike groups
• Fast-response roaming squads
• Dedicated leadership structure
• Funding/support for committed players

This is not for players who want easy bags.
This is for players who want to become a nightmare.

When Order starts asking:
“Are the Witch Elves online tonight?”

We’ve already won.
