Here's what I don't understand about the way people approach this. Yes, the spawn room could easily be camped with people looking to contain anybody who shows up. Why don't people in MAX armor deconstruct nearby and spawn in wearing their full MAX gear and retake the spawn room for their empire? Beats the hell out of having your MAX torn apart in the courtyard trying to make your way in.

actually, saw this friday nite.

I also saw some great teamwork, the unarmored defenders (us) managed to regain control of a spawn room in a hacked facility. The cool thing was, three adv hackers sat back and kept hacking terminals while the rest of us, armored up. Then as group, used the back door entrance of the spawn room, went down and around, got the spawn room free, we flooded CC and got back the Base (got a nice recap XP reward too).

The only problem was, we in the long run, lost the base to power. =(

I don't know about you, but usually I get about 3 xp per kill when I've been in spawn room camp-a-thons. Its not worth it.

The idea regarding respawning at the tower, equpping, then deconstructing and going back to the base is a brilliant idea though. Imagine the campers surprise when a couple jackhammer and phoenix equipped reinforcements come a' knockin.

This is what i envisioned when i heard that they were going to implement defenders being able to spawn at hacked bases. IT creates larger and tougher battles, challenging people.
