    Blu Voidwatch spell proc issue

    Another issue I thought I want to post(if no one hasn't if they do my bad) and gotta say it. Is there any possibility that will cut down spells to proc for blu spells? Knowing that u have to switch spells + the cooldown time = frustration for procing especially if the mob is already dead or the group. If there was a lesser amount of spells to proc I believe it'll be a better chance for blu players to make it easier. What do u think ppl? Is this a good idea or it's crap? your call.

    This keeps being brought up. It might just be a server issue, but on Sylph, all VW groups I've been in will bring 2 BLUs to cover the procs if they can. I would not support halving the number of BLU spells because it would subsequently halve my chances of joining a VW group.

    This could use addressing. VW in general has too many procs, but BLU is where it really shows. It's one thing when you're a melee and a certain WS proc comes up, you can swap to that weapon quickly and immediately start TPing and WSing to try to get it... but swapping on BLU takes significantly longer since it can't be done nearly as simply, and then the game slaps you with a minute wait on top of that. This takes way too long to do in the prevalent "zerg or die" mentality of the game nowadays.

    all VW groups I've been in will bring 2 BLUs to cover the procs if they can.
    Consider yourself lucky; I don't know anyone who likes being the BLU in VW and as a result I can't even remember the last time I was in a group that had more than one BLU in it. Most leaders won't try to get two, either because too few BLUs respond to the shouts or because there are plenty of other roles that need fulfilling in the alliance anyway.

    If I were the one building the groups, I'd probably just not bother with bringing BLUs because I've always hated it when people try to bring me as BLU (and almost all the time, if I'm the BLU, I'm the only one there) due to sheer frustration factor.
