Blobby blobby blobby

This thread is not to discuss about blobby (both sides do it at different times).

State of ORvR at primetimes
People wanna play and, sadly, some people beleive the only way is to have multiple warbands stacked upon each other and to take it a step further, also have the members of those warbands in the same voice communication channel.... (you know who you are....).

Can devs code around this? is it their place? nah its not a dev problem, its a player problem.


Proposal
Expand the current 'crown system' so that if multiple warbands of the same faction are in the same place (whether a crown is selected or not) that they appear on the map to the opposing side as an indicator that there is significant opposition at that place.


How does this help
Showing the population where this significant opposing population is allows a few things to happen:

1. They can avoid this area if they don't have enough people (or skill) to hold a fun fight
2. They could organise flanks against them with little text communication
3. It would also discourage people from this behaviours as they could potentially be starving themselves of fights by doing so.


This isn't a perfect solution (but brought to the table in our discord by Efendisiz) - that doesnt exist but I beleive this could be worth a test.

Solution still is domination locks for attacker (ie defending multiple points for stronger side) after controlling all BOs and keeps for x minutes.

Else blob will blob 24/7 and eat smaller blobs.

Proof is that only time rvr is remotely less blobbing is after a keep cap wo insta blob-lock.

This is the way or at least on the path.

So 2+ WB hand-holding - the crowns should be visible to the enemy? Why not, lets test it. There should be an internal CD for checking that status, like 1-4 min or so, and if the WBs are not stacked at that time, crowns will disappears again.
