So, what is the counter to the group of 20ish most spamming this skill the few others spamming heals? The one skill that kills me the most is this and my death recap shows multiple people casting it. Yes, It might be a l2p issue and if so, what the counter?

    You've encountered a War Games scenario.

    The only winning move is not to play or be In bigger Zerg as mentioned above

    Not running into them. It still amazes me that when I see one of these groups coming people turn and run to them with their Proxy/ST hoping to see them all wipe.

    Spread out, surround them, wait for their proxy to pop, dive in while they're off guard (have seen smaller groups beat them this way) or just surround them and throw in ranged AoE/snares to break them up.

    Its called a meatbag and fire ballista....

    let others run to fight them.. you get yourself into a safe position, setup the above mentioned and fire away... at first it seems like a waste, after a few shots with both the ap and xp start rolling in......

    There are not other counters to it except 20 - 24 with steel tornado and proxy det.. lol...
    with some seige firing into the group you will start seeing the xp and ap....

    Get a group of people that have caltrops and toss them at the group to slow them down, and them have people throw dark flares, curse, magicka/inevitable det, and other similar attacks in.

    After doing an extensive 2 min google search, they are actually called Troupes not groups. 1.0
    Via the Internet

    Dance groups in general are called troupes
