Dominion Events Needs Some Changes

[Label07]

1) Parties. After entering the zone and placed on a team red/green/bue, parties need to be formed either automatically or by users, pref automatically. Maybe a role check is polled to make placement make the most sense.

2) Chat. I don't know if it's a bug, but the only chat besides World chat that works while in a Dominion event is "Camp". I have not once seen a camp chat message from another player. How are we supposed to coordinate with our team when we have to expose our strategy to World chat??

3) Turn-In locations. A example of how not to do this is Dark Destroyers on Ruins of Tur.... There are dedicated spots that don't move the entire time the event is up. Meaning, that it's best to avoid PVP and farm around your turn in, zerg any that are dumb enough to challenge your death ball. Not good design. I would have these turn in be dynamic at certain points, probably random at times they spawn as well so players have to adapt. Multiple turn ins, you don't want a bloodbath and one side always winning because they have the most geared, best PVP players... The point is, you want people to play outside their comfort-PVE-farming-zone.

4) I feel as though there is no automatic balancing based on the amount of players of one color are in zone. So many times I feel like I'm put on a team with the least amount of players, whereas the opposing team(s) have zergs. The game needs to constantly check for amount of players in zone and amount of each color and balance as necessary. I think what's currently happening and the way it's currently programmed is, when a player enters the zone, they are assigned a color, that color persists if they teleport away and back. This is good however, the game seems to keep them counted on the roster. If that player teleports away and doesn't come back it leads to the above paragraphs complaint.

I wish we can just enter with our own party instead of disbanning it and randomly putting us on separate teams. I get its for balancing but its so much more fun to play with your friends than with randoms.

it really is so bad that you cant have parties or even invite people from open world into a 5 man that you are on a team with. Are we really meant to wonder around until we find our team color? I spend 80% trying to find my team & getting ganked by large groups some how, but my team color is no where to be found and has to be hunted for. Seems like a really bad implementation. Also there is a party match making button that Does Not Work ever.. why even have it?

Added #4. Color balancing needs a second look.
