Based on this idea. Perhaps only grant glory/XP if your team gains a minimum capture score like 200-400. Pure AFKers get nothing but even an outmatched group would get the benefits of a match.
Axes and hammers are quite possible. I think my dreams for a spear guardian aren't likely though :( One could always hope; a lot of content has yet to be added in and as mentioned these are the very starting days of beta.
