Filthy stinking siege stealers!!

Ok, So I am pretty sure that I am not the only one this bothers but maybe I am 
. Anyways I find it very annoying to put down a siege only to have it quickly stolen by someone when I have to hop off of it for a sec to heal, etc.. and this really gets my blood boiling if I place it down in a good spot with lots of tasty targets in range!!
Zos, can you please add in a lock feature to siege weapons? When we put down a siege we should have the option to press x to lock the siege so that the person who bought the siege is the only one who can use it!!
Thanks,
Hammy!!!

This. I frequently lay down extra seige for randoms. Actually, lately I've been throwing down dummy seige to draw fire. I'd love for a random to pick one of those up!

The decay rate is not that bad if you are just hopping off to throw down some quick heals or fighting off an attacker. The main point I have is that it is my AP/Gold spent to use that siege and if wanted someone else to use it I would put down multiple siege... plus some areas you can only get one siege into so now not only did I lose my siege but I can no longer put a new one down!!

This... is more of what I am talking about. I don't mind the people who use it for one or two shots but the people who flat out refuse to give you your siege back is beyond frustrating!

✭✭As long as they shoot the right things go ahead. I don't like sieging anyway. They should have an override essentially. You should be able to activate your siege and kick the guy off.PC/EU DC0 -

Excuse me? As long as I am the one paying for the siege then it is siege stealing unless of course ZOS wants to hand them out for free!!

Of course there is siege stealing. That's what it is when someone refuses to get off your siege after they've been asked to relinquish it. That is very different from keeping siege active when owner is down or occupied, or a group member takes a shot or two. The stealing involves randoms, who apparently are too lazy or cheap to get their own, and too rude to get off when asked.

That's just someone being a troll then. Yes it does happen. They just think it's funny, but that not how it's supposed to work in a perfect world.Terms & Conditions ["We revoke permission to fictional legal constructs or private/public persons for selling of any private data, censorship, surveillance, personage or conversion as a trespass of law.

✭✭✭✭I usually lay down multiple and bounce between them. I really appreciate if somebody asks if they can jump on, but don't really care either way. Now if I had a cold fire out and somebody jumped on it and wouldn't get off, that would be annoying. I have seen it happen many times to, and not by rookies either...0 -

I probably should have been a little more informative but i am not really talking about sieging walls as you don't earn AP for that.
But rather sieging players (other factions) because you do earn AP and XP for that. As someone who solos a lot (i will group if given an invite), sieging other players is a great way for me to earn AP and complete kill player quest!!

Talyena✭✭✭✭Only bothers me if it is a coldfire. It would be nice if you could boot people off or pick up your siege without being on it, but if you could lock others off there is nothing stopping someone from dropping a bunch of siege to prevent others from doing so.3

You seriously sound extremely snobby throughout this entire thread. It's 1k ap, not 10k or 100k. Please get off your high horse and stop acting like it is life or death. My mother taught me how to share 28 years ago so I have no problem letting others use my siege.

✭My only problem is when u use cold fire ballista/ trebuchet and I hop off it to repair it then someone take over but doesn't get off of it. Them ballistas are worth over 5k each and also they're rarely sold at guild stores.

Skinzz✭✭✭✭✭Its annoying when you set up a cold fire and hop off for just a second to repair it or heal.. 90% of a time its a low level in jute gear hopping on. It seriously feels like they hide in a bush and the moment u get off the siege they pounce on it.Anybody got a group? LFG, anybody? Hello?1
