Default remove enemy ghost blocking

I know many will say its a legit tactic for altar maps but I think its too cheap of a ploy that should be removed
knockdowns and interupts are more than sufficient in being the only tactics to prevent a ghost from capping

If you actually made go around the new training place when you make a new PvP character, you will notice a npc called, "Master of Blocking" and he tells you all about how Body Blocking is a great tactic to use in PvP.

I agree. Learn to use it, learn to love it.

I don't really tomb, but theres nothing more satisfying than putting 2 people in the doorway of the enemies base on warriors isle to stop them getting a flag runner out. Bodyblocking is a skill which takes practice and experience to pull off consistantly, therefore I see no harm in it.

I think the thread is referring to direct body blocking of the ghost on alter maps.

I'm split each way on this. We do, and I love when we do. It gets used against us, and I scream each time it does.

So the lesson i've learn't is not to take risks with the ghost and get him up on the alter straight away.

Haha! Welcome to Tyria D4nowar. But a little part of me still agrees with you.

I saw a good use of blocking made by the Koreans. The whole team blocked the flag runner from getting to the post. It was beautiful.
