(And theres probably alot of problems if groups start to farm items etc in other realms for twink temps.) If you want to gank grays, go df. If you want rvr, go bgs/OF.

So you are able to enter enemy homeland just solo, or if you want i think you can do it even with fg (only did that solo ;D). So in my opinion it´s a necassary costum change!

This would work if there weren't those nasty mages on top of the keep. In my opinion it would be as useful as this "kill zone" but much more stylish if those mages would cast bolts with 750 AoE-Damage with a HUGE explosion effect.

After all you cant expect xping gamers to expect an ambush in mularn or mag mell all the time ("i always expect an ambush").

As you may have noticed there is now a "zone of death" in the border keeps to prevent people from entering the homezones of the realms. It explains the screenshot. Thats a custom change on Uthgard, correct. Camulos I have to add that this is a declared workaround until guards are setup correctly. It should be the way live handles it. First things are that door mechanics are propably bugged and guards not strong enough. I'm not a friend of these death zones as they give no explanation why you died and are custom changes. It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience. Every bug gets fixed. Sooner or later.

I've read reports that players on live were able to use a bug to get around the frontier keeps and enter the enemy homeland. I've read a report that a player found a bughole in the frontier and was moved to the enemy homeland. I've yet to see a report where a zerg stormed through the enemy frontier keep into the homeland. I suspect there was some kind of invisible wall, but one thing is for sure: You are not meant to get into the enemy homeland, not by using bugs nor by using tactics (RAs, abilities, huge player count). If you want home invasion, play on a PvP server.

Same applies to TK's as well. Door mechanic for TK's is bugged too. It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience. Every bug gets fixed. Sooner or later.
