    I don't miss the doors at all and support the change. The AP tower farming thing was getting old and annoying.

    Tower farming has probably crowned more emperors than taking keeps.

    Now they will just go farm an outpost, so nothing will change. That's what we're already doing. Go capture a outpost on the opposite side of the map between opposing factions keep hold and you will farm both of them and get 20-30-40-50k ticks defending the outpost and it's easier to defend outpost than resource. So I guess we should remove doors and etc from outpost.

    And thats okay. The doors get sieged down. No delay going through the door. Only ones mad by change are those who abused it for easy ap

    The tower farmers would pick towers where they could lob siege at an enemy keep and flag it over and over. A few dozen potatoes show up to "defend" and get fried for it.

    Taking an outpost will draw the wrath of the whole 90 man Zerg.

    Tower farms were so easy to shut down if you could just keep the potatoes off the flag. If you had an organized group, you could siege the tower down before the three potatoes standing on the flag could flip it. once the tower is down the whole farm crumbles. The satisfaction of doing this was worth the AP that the potatoes fed the farmers.

    Might've been interesting if the door had been a siege-able object.
    Fan of playing magblade since 2015. (PC NA)
    Might be joking in comments.

    Tower farms rarely crowned emps, unless you could pull an Alma and get fed ticks. All the big emp farms were at keeps or pain training AROUND the resource and that's been that way for ages. Even pre-1.6 when farming up for emps with Havoc, the fights were almost always outside towers so that your AP flow was constant.

    What made tower farming the go-to farm was siege dominance.

    So... you're confirming o-tick > d-tick? Occasionally you could get some good ones though. Especially if you brought a scroll with you. Still prefer outposts.

    Bulb and Steve never let us farm scrolls, we had to do that during the day with Sandy and then tell Bulb we were "PvDooring objectives" all day.

    You poor souls. Half the fun in Cyro is finding good scroll spots imo. Though, nothing will ever top the tower in north DC gate. I wish I could have seen the foam frothing from Brandon's mouth when he was getting farmed at that tower behind a closed gate :trollface: and raging at us.
