AV Queue Times

[dj_hype]

I'm in the Rampage battlegroup, Horde side, and I've been in AV queue for 2 hours now...anyone else experiencing long as hell queue times?

This is a US Battlegroup, and it is well 11:16 my time on a Tuesday. Meaning mid-week, people are sleeping or most likely not playing WoW. Peak hours run from 4-9 it seems and 9 is pushing it.

Ahh...well then...that would make sense lol. Sorry, I don't PvP much and I guess it never occurred to me that for PvP to happen, you need people to be online, queued up for PvP...

Well I'm on EU servers and have been in queue for 4h30m.... The time here is aprox 18:00.....

AV has been pretty dead for me too.

AB however, has popped quite often the past couple days.

I think people are doing the smaller BGs now that honor gains have increased because they end quicker (maybe).

 

[dj_hype]

Is it worth doing mixed mode then? I'm not worried about honor farming, I just want to level faster.

 

[jacksonn]

i don't anymore its not worth the risk.

 

[Taylor123123]

I just grind now, smaller BG's aren't worth botting... too risky imo.

 

[Joker76]

It's worth it for me because my faction usually always wins on my battlegroup. So, it gives me a nice exp. boost when AB does come up.

During the week, you can probably level just as fast doing straight grinding and/or questing. But on "Call to Arms" weekends, you can rack up exp and honor doing mixed mode.

yeah, I took my pally from 71 on a friday, to 80 on a monday morning winning 60% of the IOC's.

AV is dead on my realm aswell.. pretty sucks since i level'd a few to 80 few months ago

I do only pvp mode with AB and AV and I seem to be shooting up the lvling ladder. 40-57 in just a couple of days. Plus when you hit 60 you get all the shiny PvP vanity shit
