Also...and this is a little difficult to explain..but. ..

When you are riding your horse to a destination and you come upon a field or grove of trees or outcropping of rocks and you see your allies all hidden?...

DO- take notice and realize they were there before you and are hidden for a reason(prolly because an enemy is near). Dismount and hide rather than being bait.(If the hidden enemy sees you ride up and dismount and go into hide ,#1-you are a little safer and you're on equal footing with your hidden enemy.#2-you have just forced your enemy to move(they don't know if you are 1 or 100)

DO NOT- ride your horse around each hidden ally in circles or stop next to the hidden ally.(this pretty much tells the enemy who sees you on your horse "theres a hidden enemy there")

OH and a big one. If the enemy has set up camp inside a resource tower to farm you with oil pots. IGNORE the NPCs around the flag...do not take the flag. Do not think of the flag. Do not look at the flag . Do NOT listen to the flag beckoning you to cap it. Tear down that tower FIRST.

All the info here should be compressed to the uses of siege equipment. All the rest is "your way to play". Personally I find solo up to a group of three the most fun and certainly effective enough gaining AP without farming or other absurd past times.

Swapping between siege I find to be a bit dishonest. I don't do it. It wasn't intended this way and I can see them patching it at some point to only allow reloading whilst manning it. It reduces the point of meatbags etc. It's basically a tip to exploit a game mechanic that wasn't intended. But each to their own.

If you haven't done much pvp and looking to start, some tips to save you headaches early on:

SIEGE EQUIPMENT:
1) Dominion ballista: reloads faster than a treb, does good siege damage. Use it when assaulting keeps. ATTACK WALLS NOT DOORS (postern). Postern doors won't take siege dmg but gates do.

This has been fixed

This is aimed at people with little to no pvp experience. As I mentioned, once someone has been in AvA for a while they tend to figure out the tactics for themselves, more or less. Some will prefer ganking, others will prefer farming. Different strokes for different folks
