Build points

[Malong]

VM is still doing our weekly rag events and i have not run into this problem yet.

Don't you play Normal on your events? I guess towards the end, but still.

Comparing events with public runs isn't great. This heavily affects public runs. Often there are too many barricades that the team can't build for the important waves, or too few points to build the barricades you brought in because the team had to use more barricades and points on earlier waves before the server was full and set up efficiently.

Would someone mind telling me what maps and what strategy they are seeing this problem with?

It's not a specific map nor instance. In general, it happens before Thor and Odin when you have 0-6 build points for the wave.

But anyway, why is this system of abstract points required to build something that you already brought in? Do you somehow acquire knowledge of how to build more of the exact same barricades as you survive longer and/or kill more enemies? Of course not. None of this system makes any sense.
