BG Queue Time??Follow

#1 Dec 27 2006 at 7:46 PM Rating: Decent
Hey, I haven't played my 60 rogue for the longest time because BGs just take forever to get into. AV takes about an hour. She is in Laughing Skull, usually medium population. My 59 Priest is in Stonemaul, also medium population but it takes about 30 seconds to get into AV.. I wondered if maybe it was the server population so I made a char in Warsong, very heavy population, and asked some 60's how long it takes to get into AV and they said about 50 minutes. If the BGs are cross realm, why does Stonemaul take so much less time than the other two? Does it take longer with Alliance characters? If anyone knows whats up, that would be great. Oh, and if you know a pvp server that let's high levels AC in BG's quickly, that would be great too.

As far as I know Alliance times are horrible for AV. I "think" this won't be much of an issue though once BC comes out due to raids in BC and arena (from what I hear are better items that you can buy from BG). Well, I know for a fact arena is anyway.

I can only tell you that from what I have read on here Alliance queue times are terrible, especially for AV. I personally only play Horde and benefit by <1 minute queue times.

Some realms have extremely short que times and others have very long ones. I'm on Burning Blade and ours are very long 50+ AV's and 10-25 min AB/WSG. Had some friends that have transferred to different servers and they said that the que times on some servers are absolutely wonderful.

The Frostwolf Server has these queues. AV ~30min BG week ~15min; AB ~3min BG week ~1min; WSG ~10sec BG week ~1sec. WSG is so unpopular lol because all of the alliance always get organized groups for AB or PuG AV. Good Battlegrounding.

It is likely that the two servers are in different battlegroups. One server is not matched against all other servers, just a small subset.
