But they still didn't have access to some of the larger heal spells that you get later. He must have been healing like a mofo :) Mornazh, yes they did.

If that player had not been bolstered they would have put out a lot less healing. Examining the screenshot I assumed that the level 2 healer benefited significantly from the bolster.

Open field RvR can get you all the renown you need. I think at some point you have to say ’screw the numbers’ and use strategy to win the scenario for your own happiness!

This happened by capturing the northern point (closest to the Destruction spawn point) on my own (or with 2 people) and killing everyone who tried to take it back (every now and then a Orcs came by).

I suspected during CB that defending a capture point in a scenario that wasn't under siege constantly penalised you personally from every direction. Less reknown, less XP, abuse from your teammates for not joining the zerg and/ or making a contribution that shows up on the "leaderboard".... All because you're prepared to anchor down and defend what you have. A scoreboard encourages personal glory-hunting at the expense of the team objective (winning the scenario).
