Points Gain in Nordenwatch

Nordenwatch scenarios seem to last around 3 mins if one realm caps 2 points including fortress. This 3 mins includes running to flags so that actual engagement time with the enemy is +/- 2 min. If we include the time to queue and waiting for the sc to start, at least 50% of the time spent in Nordenwatch is queuing and running to an engagement. Is there any way to reduce the points gain from holding points so these SCs could last maybe 5-7 mins? Even if the sc starts out imbalanced, I've seen several times that it can begin to balance out in a couple minutes. It's very annoying to queue every 3-5 mins.

The only time this very fast points gain is advantageous is if the sc is extremely imbalanced and it can end quickly. Perhaps the points gain could be very fast if all three flags are owned by one realm.

SC point gain is because of an issue with kill points. The points are given for everyone in the group (which is everyone when in a scenario) so killing a player grants about 60 points.

This makes sense. I did notice on my last sc after server re-boot that points were jumping from 300-400 in like 1s.
