One of the comments that I’ve seen both in my guild’s chat and friend friends and even general chat is that gatherers (herbers, miners, even skinners) are using warmode for easy gathering.
One of the suggestions I thought of was maybe if you are gathering while PVP flagged and get killed that you drop half of the things you’ve gathered while flagged. The bag that you drop has a 10 second loot time and anyone can loot it.
It seems there are a lot of people gathering with warmode on that are 100% not engaging in any kind of PVP and just reaping the rewards of “free stuff”.
Maybe to make it even more exciting, you can choose to be FFA for a 20% increase to gathering, but now anyone can attack you that you’re not partied with?
Each herb or mine node has a 50/50 chance to TOuch of Death you. Make it happen lol

If there were more people in War Mode, then they wouldn’t be using War Mode for farming.
Its just like how bots phase over to dead realms, same principle. Just a good spot to not be disturbed or struggle with others for resources. Because War Mode is mostly empty.

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t gathering nodes all personal? War mode wouldn’t matter in that case one bit.
No, nodes are not personal. Other people can see the same nodes (and extra with the Truesight vial).
So you want even less players to turn on Warmode? I think you people don’t get it.
If you want WPvP to flourish you need awesome PvE open world content to attract players. You need Delves, snuffling, gathering, chest, quest.
- It’s the PvE content that gives WPvP content life.
Warode isn’t supposed to be solely WPvP. Warmode is doing everything that is PvE with the addition of PvP. That’s what makes it fun. Attacking an Elite and someone jumps you, Gathering a node and someone else wants it too.
Just like when players get bounty they hearth because you can’t fly and it prevents you from playing the game. It prevents you from questing, mining etc. If you can’t play the game that is bad for WPvP. So you are forced to hearth. Systems like this make players turn Warmode off.
Sigh… You want better WPvP make PvE better in the open world. Attract more players.
Bingo

I honestly have no idea how WM could make anything easier, considering there’s hostile players who are flying around looking for the same stuff you are. I’ve flown around gathering herbs and fishing in and out of Warmode and I can’t say it makes it any better, but I also have the herbalism passive that let’s me stay on my mount, so that probably helps.
They arent one person takes it, like it used to be.
But I think after the first person takes it, it will only stick around for a few moments before it disappears. And I think there is a max amount of people that can gather from it too, before it goes away.
Hmm maybe. I know I’ve always been in war mode and see herbs everywhere.
