And to the people who rolled on Eight Peaks: /who Obsidian Spur and tell someone,they will invite you.
Be prepared to pay taxes. Lots of them.
I'm joking
I did /who obsidian spur. There was no one there.
Then again it was close to 2am =/
Hm, I'm normally online around that time and I could swear I was yesterday.
Anyway, try during the evening, most of our guys are online then.
Will do dude, hope to see you all on there soon then
Btw if you really are low on healers I don't mind rolling a DoK. I just chose WE based primarily on the fact that they look bad ass.
So I've been trying to figure something out for certain, but can't find any real info on it: is there a cap to the number of scenarios a server can support (I mean, obviously there's a physical cap at some point, but I mean a limiting one)? I've been getting queue times >45 minutes on occasion on Ulthuan and it even slows down during prime time on my Order alt. Even at full 15 minute games, that would require 4x the number of Destro as Order in queue to reach 45 minute waits naturally. My guild has been debating rerolling order for queues, but if the limit is scenario caps rather than population, there's not much point.
Also, anyone have any idea if they'll ever allow queueing for scenarios not in your zone (or a "queue for all" feature)? It baffles me that this doesn't exist, and it would help smooth out the zone populations. Also, maybe people would realize there was a second scenario in each T3 zone and actually queue for them (GG 1.5 hour queue for that graveyard place).

So, 13/10 on my Shaman as of this morning, including some hilarity with a couple guys (sorry, insomnia, names are elluding me) letting me tag along to some Chapter 9 (end of T2) PQ action with my not-quite-13-yet shaman. I guess it was just an extra handicap for them... or perhaps, a more efficient method of mob gathering, since I'd inevitably get 2-4 things out for my blood (being both low level and a healer) which I'd then try to LoS onto some of the big, beefy Orkz' in the area.
Even snagged a couple greens I won't be able to use for ages.
That said, I'm starting to feel the grind a bit. Running out of rested exp and then trying to quest between Scenarios takes its toll.

Selner that post was a great one to follow my inquiry with
I'm so happy they're making that change -- the current system was really inhibiting.

Thank you Mythic! Already adding features so soon after release. If they make changes this fast to problems and concerns we are in for one hell of a ride to say the least. That other MMo would have taken months to enact something like this.
that fix? would have definitely been included in a major patch by blizzard, and even if it was ready there would never be a hotfix for something like that. it would have to wait, oftentimes being delayed for as much as five months for other features, until one giant patch goes in (which is of course horribly buggy because there's so much crap going on in it).
What's kind of funny is that Mythic is doing great things with all these little Hot Fixes. Yet, we've got folks (over on WHA for example) crying foul that Mythic is not doing "real" patches.
If they can fix things without having to take down the servers, more power to them. I prefer this sort of thing to a "every Tuesday we'll take the servers down for 12 hours" sort of thing.
It means that when they do release an actual Patch, it'll be nothing but goodness.
You are all assuming that people will see this announcement AND figure out how to do it.
They had something similar in the early con demos (and Tier 4); you get arrows on the interface and can scroll right through them. People should figure it out quickly.
Now I'll be able to do Phoenix Gate a second time!

Yeah but you see those people on WHA don't actually matter. They don't know that any time an MMO developer fixes an actual problem, it's a Good Thing®
I don't care how they do it, one awesome thing a day is better than all those awesome things a month from now.

Seriously, this is going to make EVERY scenario pop up.
This is the best fix and I love them for it.
Also, to whoever said how Blizzard would have handled it: You are spot on and I salute you.
Considering they let us know through an annoying popup whenever they ban a gold farmer, they'll probably do the same to let us know about the other scenarios.
Lore aside:
The Empire has some really nasty not-so-good attributes about them, but I'm not so sure what Dwarves or High Elves would have in comparison.
This means other scenarios will finally pop. Don't wanna do Tor Anroc? Don't queue for it.
Maybe, but it also means that nobody has to queue for a scenario they hate. I think Mourkain will still dominate T2. But there'll at least be more people queueing for all 3.

High Elves are pretty racist and look down upon other races (as is everyone in the Warhamer universe), Dwarves are also racist and look...up...at other races.
Pretty much every time someone asks "What's bad about that race?" You answer: "They're racist!"

Meh, that's small-time stuff, we get that in the real world, but not so much the exorcising of entire villages.

As is the chat system, so /channel TSM is often quiet too.
Have they given an ETA on when this will be fixed, or acknowledged it or anything?

I'm a DoK, but roll whatever you want. Can't go wrong with healing by poking their liver with two swords.
Nothing, thus far. The Mouths will be taking other measures to mitigate this.
Thing is I really wanted to play as Black Guard. But nooooooo..... Gah. Hmmn, I'll have to take a little look around.

'course, not always having the quests is a bit of a bummer on XP per hour, but hey.

thank god for a sensible patching style.

"Can someone queue us for Mourk?"
Five minutes later...
"Jesus fuck can someone queue us for Mourk? Fine I'll fly out there myself."
I'm almost going to miss it.
Woah there, you need to tone down your faith in humanity a little bit.

Also, who puts decline on the left?! That's where accept goes, assholes.
