Fix Spirit Watch

This map needs to be removed from solo queue or fixed. It is completely unbalanced right now. I saw a warrior run at double speed from orb pick up to cap this last match. Assuming this is legit and not some hack, we need the following changes:

1. When someone picks up an orb, they need to lose ability to use all skills. The only option should be to drop the orb.
2. The orb should be a big event. Make it happen 2 or 3 times a game and that is it.

I’ve posted these items in other threads before, but hopefully ANET starts listening.

Hey guys, just wanted to pop in here and state that come the release of the feature build players will no longer be able to carry the orb while in a transform. For those unfamiliar with what a transform is in PvP, it is a skill that changes your skill bar. I.E Rampage, Elixir U, Tornado, etc. We’ve also trimmed off some hard edges on the map to make travel more smooth and functional.

Thanks and I hope this makes the map more enjoyable for those whom have issues with it.
