Default Alliance Battles

Ive got a couple questions regarding AB

1. Is saltspray really neutral territory? Kurz always seem to win (even though i can think of other reasons for the L's) another reason that the map doesnt seem balanced is the pic at the beginning is a kurzick design if im not mistaken and im sure that most of the points are closer to where the kurz start

2. Why does it sometimes say Saltspray Beach and other times Saltspray Beach (Luxon)

1. Yes

2. Saltspray Beach (Luxon) is the name of the outpost, Saltspray Beach is the name of the mission.

I'm Luxon and Saltspray seems fairly balanced... 60/40 in my experience

Saltspray is neutral.

The dragon roost is in the middle and same distance from either base.

Both sides have a defensive urn as their first cap.

Both sides have a ranger base as their first cap.

Both sides have chance at a res shrine (depends if you send two teams north for the hill, or two teams south for the shore)

Really the advantage goes to whoever can control the middle and a res point and maintain that control.

-------------------

Compare this to Etnaran Keys:

Luxons have the res orb point closer to their base.

Kurzick have Elite Warrior and Elite Elementalist closer to their base.

Luxons are closer to the middle res shrine.

Battles here usually start with Luxons holding the middle and Kurzicks charging in.

yup yup! jus got frustrated at losing all the time, seems that my gut reaction was correct - poor teams, luxons cant seem to get their act together unless they're on etneran where its biased imo
