Not only due huge desyncs and lags, exploits, bugs but damn… almost all “competetive” wars looks the same, there is a few (2-4 groups) on flanks that had fun and most people are just focused on controlling points. I mean on flanks wars are not that laggy and you can have sometimes some more skill required small fights - group vs group but inside control point…
Here lag and desync fiesta begins but it’s not only the reason I lose my motivation, design of this war is so… bad? It’s literally dps and output heal check - zerg vs zerg. People are literally stacking or trying to stack their aoe/cleave damage in small radius of this control point, I would call that - people shit under their own feet. I don’t find anything that require skill here, more depends on luck honestly if you stack your dmg in the right spot where “chained people” will be damaged or not - here sometimes you can’t predict it due desyncs and glitches when people “teleports” few squares
and that’s how it goes, from point A, B, C and inside fort, shit under yourself as best you can and maybe you can dirty the ones next to you
I have been participating in large scales PvP’s like Lineage 2 - sieges, open world pvps for epics
BDO - nodes, gvgs
and felt that there something depends on skill (or lack of it if try hards gonna insult me) but here? I am doing very good dmg but don’t feel any satisfaction because how can you feel any satisfaction casting your cooldowns on war caller command to put the biggest dmg as possible in small radius inside controlling point, it’s like aiming to the huge wall
In my last war I started off throwing a grav which just didnt spawn for 15 seconds. Teleported a bit around, died a minute later. Got send into a 5 min loading screen, and after that I was lying dead without being able to respawn for the rest of the battle.

Last night during ice storm lag (as a tank) I died and fell through the ground. I never got the respawn option and I couldn’t do anything for 20 minutes.
Today after war I was teleported to Windsward but before war I was in Restless Shore. Couldn’t do anything after trying to talk with NPC in Windsward, E key button didn’t work, after that attempt I couldn’t move. I left game to the Main menu and logged again, didn’t help. Restarted client, after loggin I was in Restless Shore and everything was working again. Not big deal but… strange?
Wars were fun, ive stopped logging in altogether though because just wars alone is not enough. And well its broken as we could all see it would be from a mile away,
