How's pvp on your datacenter?

[Theodric]

Rather than see experience removed from PvP I would much prefer to see a tougher approach on illegal activities and match throwing.

I turned on freelancer to see if the flames and Adders have come back to life yet for Shatter...got melted with some bots. Maelstrom isn’t exactly better I’d say, since I can just go into a premade and kill them. I think it’s just there doesn’t tend to be bots rolling with us.

Well, on Chaos (Europe), I wait just like 10-20min for Feast as Melee DPS between 17h (roulette reset) and 1a.m. (sometimes until 2a.m, but depends on people I guess).
Sometimes it's even less or instant.

I'm worried about such topics stoping people from even trying to queue because they could be afraid it could be the same 24h/24. Thx there are our servers written beside, but please think that we don't all know if your servers are from NA, JP or EU by heart.

I haven't played much recently but for frontlines it was Maelstorm with the most wins and Adders and Flames were on an somewhat even level.

As for communication between teammates it's either quiet or people hate on others.

Still I don't think you need to switch to Maelstorm in order to win but trying to find people to play with will definitly help.

It more or less is. Normally I just leave after 7 mins but I let it run and I'm wishing I hadn't wasted the time. Haven't got into a single game in the past few weeks I've been back. The queue did pop twice (at 24 and 28 minutes), but it just timed out. Which more often than not implies there's a role missing, and then after that realisation people just drop queue. Imagine an entire regional DC only having a single healer online that will queue (I doubt it's tanks we're missing).

(PS I sat in this for an hour total in the end, it never popped again)

16 out of top 100 characters queued last reset. That's barely enough to run two consecutive matches, and it was probably 1 match at a time considering healers. No-one in the top 10 for diamond, silver or bronze queued at all.

30min que times are the regular for me unfortunately.. which is sad because i really, REALLY love the pvp in this game..

I finished getting my 100 Astragalos wins on my main on Primal and, after a little break from that mode, played some Astragalos on an Aether alt last Saturday. I was surprised how quickly the team gave up and such a huge lack of callouts or any kind of coordination. The primary salt pillar stood around base complaining until one of my party members went and laughed at him.

I find queues on Primal and Aether to be roughly comparable for Frontlines right now, about 18-25 min. Astragalos is no longer instant, it's more like 5-10 min on Aether, about 5 min on Primal, both during primetime.
