Zone Swapping ---- again

It seems as if swapping zones uncontested has become popular again after the patch. I just watched order and destro take 2 separate zones. I would assume this is because of the recent change for T2/T3 to drop conq level gold bags.... Just putting it out there, seems a step backwards. I like the opportunity to get more conq level bags, but not at the risk of zone swapping for uncontested zones.

Do you know if this was by keep take or keep 5star?

well on a side note... sub 40 are going t2\t3 while the rest, rr40, will fight in t4.... Atleast thats what happenning right now!

No more comment on the subject.

If all the sub 40s are going t2/3 while those above are in t4 dosnt that fragment the playerbase for orvr and inturn kinda basically undo the point of the doomsday update which was ment to address that?

Are you referring to DW and KV? Because.. DW was a draw and destro took KV...

Can't say that I'm surprised considering what a mess orvr was yesterday. A stalemate in an overly populated zone and a potentially intentional reset of a keep lord. Taking close to empty zones is easier than trying to take a lag filled keep.

Devs can't change player behavior.

Then order took T3 Emp uncontested it seemed. Just wanted to bring up the discussion to monitor. path of least resistance and all that :) I know it's only the 2nd day, and things will settle out. I find the game great fun since returning.

Well considering earlier the keep take in Averlon was like a slideshow the playerbase splitting up would be a good thing.
