Hello I am a paladin on leviathan server. The Que time for Borderland Ruins (IL 80) are terrible. In the last week on several occasions i have sat in Que for 90 - 100min plus. i can watch an entire movie in the down time wile i wait. please do something to fix this.
one idea would be to introduce mercenary or something. where if one faction has a large populace and one has a small you can be recruited as a mercenary to fight for another faction to at least fix Que times.
i know some people are like just change you grand company. which i would do if i was not lvl 28 already in maelstrom. when i started pvping the ques where 15-20min now they are 80min+ (currently in que for 121min). Wile changing faction would fix my que times it sets me back all the time i have spent so far. Maybe if you can change grand company wile retaining your rank would also be nice. then i would make the change.
PVP Long ques

08-21-2014, 05:36 AMDivinemightYou do want to report this to bug fourm and let them have take a look. Even you are a Malestorm on Primal, that number doesnt sound right at all.Quote:

I am on Leviathan as well and will agree Queue times have been really bad so can confirm it as well.

Here's what I just posted in a different thread about my current Frontlines experiences:
The biggest thing that needs to be addressed is queue times. I'm with Maelstrom, and my queues are horrendous. Almost every single time I queue, it gives me the more than 30 minute message. I think about the shortest time I've seen display is 23 minutes.
There's a friend in my FC who also does Frontlines w/ the Immortal Flames. Just about every single time we're queueing at the same time, he gets in in 5-6 minutes.
Then I think maybe I should switch to Flames. Nope, you go switch and you're friggin' reduced back to starting rank. So, I either have the choice to sit around with 30 minute queue times while my friend gets in in 5 minutes, or I switch to Flames getting faster queues but lose 20 ranks. Seriously? Why does your PVP rank have to be taken away if you switch just for the intention of actually being able to play??? -
08-23-2014, 03:54 AMSkeetNo offense, but getting to rank 28 with FL's out is an absolute joke lol. If you were maybe rank 34+, then I'd understand. But 28 is still not at all hard to achieve.Quote:

I have had the same issues lately, really over the last two weeks but especially this past weekend. I have queued for frontlines on Adamantoise as a member of the immortal flames and had queue times ranging from 58 min to over 2 hours, I queued as both a blm and whm which I use in frontlines regularly.
It really is frustrating to wait that long for a queue then when you finally get in your alliance is down multiple members anyways... It even better when you queue during off peak times you get the awesome 8v8v8 on a giant map so the fight is completely unbalanced. -
08-26-2014, 02:41 AMGorits because you're on Maelstrom. I swapped from Maelstrom to Flames and now I get pretty much instant queues most the day everyday. People jumped ship to Maelstrom once they saw we were Team Win expecting to get carried to victory and made our queue times long.Quote:

08-26-2014, 03:11 AMNorthernLadMSPDid you just switch? I'm pretty sure I was in a group with you not too long ago.Quote:

08-26-2014, 03:41 AMGorWell, you have a choice. Staying on Maelstrom and getting 1 game every 1.15 hours and praying its a win so you can get 400xp/600marks which it is a high chance it will be a win, or swapping to Flames and getting 2-3 games per hour with a high chance of losing but still getting at least 400-600xp/600-900marks without the losing streak multiplier which is more than what you get from winning. A Flamer in my ls was on a losing streak and got 750 marks and was getting b2b games. so if xp and farming marks for gear is more important to you, sadly losing with Flames is the better option because you get more games.Quote:

My queues on Maelstrom are almost always 30 minutes. One time, Sunday morning around 9am they were about 45 minutes.
I have a FC member friend who plays for Flames, and he says his queues are always 5-7 minutes. -

The ratio of 3 GCs on Priaml maybe at 5:3:2
-
08-26-2014, 06:22 AMGorVery sad, because I didnt really want to switch but I got tired of waiting 90 minutes regularly and falling asleep at the helm just to play Frontlines. meanwhile watching the people in my pvp ls's on Adder and Flames disappear and reappear several times in front of me while I'm still waiting on my ONE game.Quote:

To be fair, it's not that losing is more efficient than winning, it's that even if you're losing, as long as you're able to get through the queue faster, you're going to come out ahead then someone who wins most of the time but has to wait an hour in between matches.
The loser's multiplier is a nice bonus regardless, though. Especially after a long streak than getting a win. -
08-26-2014, 01:09 PMUltimatecaliburExactly, and from what I understand 30 consecutive wins should give roughly the same amount of PvPXP and Wolf Marks as 30 3rd place losses.Quote:
