    37-38 used to require 130 solo queue lvl 50 wins, now it takes 20 FL matches if you ignore the challanges xp

    When (and before) FL came out a pretty big amount of this pvp community asked and asked and asked SE to not have this GC restriction, unfortunately when a huge amount of players oppose it because "it wont affect the queue times, its lore so you cant do that, etc" then SE aren't going to cater to the minority that, as we predicted, were correct that the queue times would suffer

    I wouldn't be surprised if some of the people that opposed the idea are now constantly complaining about the queue times, they have no one the blame but themselves to be honest.

    seems to be a common trend in this game. no rational thought of the long-term repercussions.

    lmao how are people bitching about exp in FL? how much free shit do you people want? i gave you wintrades with maximum efficiency to level quickly..... USE THEM.

    went r1-40 on twin adders in two weeks. FL
    r1-33 on flames before giving up on aether's 45 minute ques. FL

    i did r1-30 on maelstrom, took a couple weeks after wolves den first came out. the grind was real, the grind was fun.

    alas SE put rank restriction and job requirements and destroyed wolves den with it. they dont give a damn about "pvp" they wanna make an elementary school talent show where everyone gets a trophey.

    i dont see anything being done to remedy this as long as these horrible players subs are paid. if frontlines xp is too low for you, please just uninstall the game. watch, they will put allied seals or some dumb shit in there and bring even more miserably bad PvE focused players into PvP

    fix wolves den so those of us who actually PvP can you know...... PvP

    The point was more 'SE already adjusted your exp/match so that you will level faster than you could doing similar content in the den'

    Also the exp per match actually isn't your issue...your wait time is. If you could get 3-4 matches per hour then you'd be getting between 600-1600exp/hour.

    Your main complaint is how the queues work/the lack of popularity of Frontlines at the times you play.

    I don't know what to suggest outside doing other in-game activities while you wait.

    Gaw damn, you pvp'd your ass off. I wish I had half the free time you apparently had to do this.

    BEST.....COMMENT.....EVER. Actually, your whole comment was great, just thought this part alone w/ more then worth re quoting.

    I admit that there are times where the Q for FL is somewhat of a wait, but that just gives me time to do other things. What I try to is remember times/days where the Q's are damn near instant and be on then to get the most runs out of the time i have.

    Overall I like frontlines...the only problem I have really noticed lately are groups of people in other aliiances just standing there and afk camping so we lose and they get exp and tomes for doing nothing.

    Personally, I like putting forth an effort to win and get more tomes/exp, rather than just be lazy and cause other people to fail.

    AFK camping as in, people staying at Manor/Market to defend? If so, I wish Adders on Aether had those players; we're all over the place and quickly lose our capture points because of it.

    I wish they'd tone down the rewards some to get people to care a little more. Second and third place shouldn't get 50 Myth and 25 Soldiery in my book. I think this is a reason why Adders here fail so hard. No matter how they do, they're still going to get good rewards.

    no. afk camping as in standing in some random place and doing nothing. this is another reason why Flames on Primal loses so much too. there's alot of afk camping. i had one guy dead the entire match and no one in his alliance would kick him. they claimed to not be able to kick him since he remained dead. all the while the guy kept laughing and joking in chat saying he'd play if someone would res him. no one was going to run all the way to Maelstrom OP to res him obviously and i wouldn't anyway.
