Greetings!

Your feedback is very important to us and it’s always our goal to make your play experience an even more enjoyable one.

In response to popular demand, you’ll now be able to queue for all of the scenarios available in your current tier, across all three pairings. For instance, if you’re in Nordland, you can queue for the Nordenwatch scenario as usual. You can also queue up for Khaine’s Embrace (the Tier 1 scenario in the High Elf vs. Dark Elf pairing) and the Gates of Ekrund (the Tier 1 scenario on the Dwarf vs. Greenskin pairing), all without leaving Nordland. No travel is required at all; just click the WAR symbol on your interface as you normally would, and use the arrows at the top of the window to scroll through the different scenarios.

We know many have been waiting for this feature and we have a lot more great additions coming on the horizon. We look forward to your continued feedback as we work to take WAR to the next level…WAAAGH!!!

God dam. That sweet. Some of them suck, some i really like, having to interrupt my quest lines, to go somewhere to Que up, was annoying.

Mythic +1


EDIT: Confusion, was this in the last patch, or coming soon?

This should have been an option right from the beginning.

Too bad I still have to fly around to hand in RvR kill quests...

Two weeks in is pretty damn close.  I think this gives me some sign of hope that they may start implementing other changes as well.  Then again, hope dies hard in MMO's.

Can you queue for all three and join the first one that pops up? Or can you just queue for any of the three?

It works. I'm queued for all 6 in tier 3 right now. You can queue for whichever you want.

Back in the day, we used to have to run great distances and pay to fly to join other queues. I hope all you nooblars enjoy the welfare queues that you're getting after all our hard work.

Well, I can mark another bitch I have about the game off my list. 

This is awesome news.

Wouldn't you still want to run to the appropriate war camp so you can get the quests for that scenario?

The rewards are so small (3000 xp for both quests at tier 3) it is probably more efficient just to keep doing what you are doing than run all over the place trying to turn in quests.

No. You run to the warcamp appropriate to whichever scenario is most popular for that tier, get those quests, and then enjoy a little variety every rare time you happen to get a different one.

This... the less enjoyable scenarios are still fun when done in moderation (and with people that know what they should be doing). 

If the warcamp quests scaled to your level they'd be great, as it is once you level past the middle of the teir they are a waste of time. You're better served spending your downtime doing level appropriate quests or farming mobs/pq's

Tier 3 pops within a minute now.

This has me so excited. I also think we'll be seeing people mixing zones alot more now. Before I wasn't going to Elf and Dwarf zones as much because scenarios popped more in the Empire zone.

Le awesome and so needed.

Well i guess that ends my confusion then. Nice update.


But, i can never seem to find any patch notes, and the ones in my launcher are tiny tiny fonts that they haven't seemed to fix yet.

notes/english/readme

On my hard drive? I was hoping for some online somewhere.

Sorry,  I am not sure what Mythic's problem is.  You'd think because they have no forums they'd be a more talkative on the Herald.

Maybe there will be something in the Grab Bag!  :awesome_for_real:

And it's always murderball in the volcano, which has to be the DUMBEST map design ever conceived.

All 6 T3 scenarios are Tor Anroc, right?

Actually, that's right.  Unless you count the Talbec Dam, which *is* the worst PvP instance design ever conceived.
The others are either awful and almost never pop (graveyard, CTF), or never pop (temple, other dwarf one).

That said, getting an average of ~22k xp per Tor Anroc (factoring in horrible losses where I only get 8k and sweeping wins where I get 37k - those include quests, of course), which takes about 8 minutes +1 minute for a queue; hard to complain about that.

Unless, of course, you're not a Bright Wizard or Archmage : /

I played Back Fire Chasm last night. Good simple capture the flag, at even distance from each point. And a murderball which doesn't add points but adds 25% damage bonus to the one hlding it.

Good fun, and decent xp for both the win and the loss. 17k/1k xp/rp for the win 8k/1k for the loss
