In case you missed the thread, we decided to make some changes to this based on player feedback:
TL;DR:
After seeing your feedback, we discussed and implemented a server side setting for the feature to be toggled off or on. This is currently internal only but will be patched to the TestLive servers.
Private Server admins will then be able to choose according to their communities’ preference and turn the mechanic on or off.
For official PvP servers we decided to have this setting OFF by default.
