    Why just english? Searching for other languages broadens your possibilities right?

    Yes, but unfortunately not in a good way. It broadens the possibility of being matched up with a tiny number of people who queued under something other than E and then you have to wait forever for enough people to do the same to get enough people in all GC's to compete. A group from my LS was in queue and got a long wait estimate which we never do nights or weekends and after requeueing under E we popped instantly.

    You misunderstood. The advice was to queue for the other languages in addition English. Not queue for the other languages only.

    That's one of the things I like about FL (beyond the battle itself when I'm with the right party of course)- earning currency towards three separate pools of gear at the same time, people are freaking nuts running the same dungeons over and over instead of this unless they don't enjoy it at all. And no weekly cap on Wolfmarks is awesome, I even picked up an i90 weapon for my retainer yesterday since Direwolf has no more rank restriction.

    Yes, I firmly believe that. My adder premade teams get as close to insta-queue privileges as it gets during prime time (being an underdog GC on server) and if we ever get a long time estimate it's because whoever registered chose all languages. We've unregistered right away, chose E, and went right in. I didn't come up with theory but I believe it, and I think it's easier for the less-full GC's to verify since a party of several of us queueing at once is what it can take sometimes for the match to fill enough to get started (since there's already enough Maelstroms sitting around waiting for us <evil laugh>).

    Update- someone who's primary language is NOT E can verify inverse by queueing under that language alone and not choosing E. I'd just make sure you have a good book handy or beast tribe quests to do etc.
