What do you all think of altering the mechanics of keep capturing in the following way?

- Within two minutes of capturing a keep, newly repaired walls/gates take 200% normal damage.

- Two to five minutes after capturing a keep, newly repaired walls/gates take 175% normal damage.

- Five to eight minutes after capturing a keep, newly repaired walls/gates take 150% normal damage.

- Eight to ten minutes after capturing a keep, newly repaired walls/gates take 125% normal damage.

- After holding a keep for ten minutes, newly repaired walls/gates take 100% normal damage.

Edit: Forgot to mention the added AP tick for holding the keep to the 10 minute mark.

    Defense tick is bad game design.
    I've seen situations where some people were waiting for the defense tick while losing other keeps that were undefended.
    If anything you should get a bigger AP tick for capturing a Keep.

    The AP tick was an afterthought but in this case the tick isn't for defending so much as holding a newly captured keep for ten minutes, so in effect this is a kind of AP boost for capturing a keep.
