Node Wars feel very broken right now

So on Castus a town declared war on Miraleth.

They were able to spawn camp the Emberstone and kill you before you were even loaded in from res, run into the town and kill everyone while the guards just stand there.

Walking away with 120k exp debt and no chance to fight back just feels broken, it definitely needs some work - at the very least a respawn protection. There was no effective way to fight back.

Either way we were outnumbered as their side seemed to have a much higher amount of level 20+, which at level 15 you can't even touch (which is to be expected), but it definitely needs some tuning.

Edit : on a positive side my PC was running great with so many players and effects going on, only issue was some server lag.
