The current HB system is boring and annoying, mainly due to the ever-failing AI of you heroes. There is little control, since movement has to be flagged, and skills often get a delay.

What I think would make it much more fun, and give GW that innovator feeling again, would be to change the current HB to an RTS style game.

No no, no resource management, no tanks etc. etc. just a few, semi-minor adjustments:

-Camera position change to a top down view
-four heroes per team, or let your player be controlled as a hero
-rts style hero control: direct clicking like you would mouse-walk with your char atm, instead of flagging with delay
-direct skill control, again, as if you would do it currently controlling your own char.

Or in other words: remove the AI alltogether.

i like this idea but it's really not guild wars imo, if you want RTS play an RTS.

- Disable all hero skills
- Set them to passive
- Move camera to point vertically

And there you go.

You might be also interested that you're playing a very wrong game.
