I think the problem is alot of people are clueless they could queue for multiple scenarios.
I didn't know about that untill i read about it on warhammer alliance forum.

There's an announcement right in your WAR launcher now... right where it says "Announcements"
If everyone uses it, maybe I'll get to play something other than Tor.(I hate being a WE on Tor)
I completely agree that it'd be more fun to do other scenarios, and I don't fault you at all.
However, why don't all the Destro people who hate it so much simply queue for everything BUT Tor? Order would eventually go, "Damn, Tor is slow. Guess I'll queue for this other thing over here."
* In an effort to highlight more of the available scenarios, we have made a slight adjustment to the positioning of scenarios in the queue window. The Elf Tier 3 Scenario “Temple of Isha†is now the first scenario players will see, followed by “Tor Anroc.â€
Yesssss. Here's hoping they'll swap Talabec Dam and High Pass Cemetary too.
They really just need to add a Join All button, that should drastically improve the number of people queued up. It can't be that hard to do, either, since I have an addon that allows it.
I was thinking that another way to make people play the other scenarios is to combine the "Participate in x Scenario" quests in each zone, so that people would have to play both Tor Anroc and Temple of Isha for an exp and money bonus.

Join All won't necessarily make the other scenarios pop faster. It will probably just make the first scenario on the list pop faster because it will fill up first.
People need to just stop queuing for the ones they don't like. Unfortunately, that won't solve the problem if the underpopulated side keeps queuing for Tor Anroc or wherever.
Mythic should just rotate which scenarios show up first every few days, sort of like WoW's BG weekends.
So I decided to roll up a zealot to try out this healing thing (for those who were rolling with Jaek on Sunday, great games!). I am now absolutely baffled why people are so very bad at healing in pugs. if you see someone with a health bar over their head, click on them and toss a couple heals. Doing it this way I was generally at the top of the heal charts starting at level 4.
Then I installed squared.
If you are a healer and do not have squared then you are doing it WRONG. Heal per scenario went up by between 6-12k. It does have a bad effect of I tend to stop paying enough attention to my surroundings, but I think it's worth it.
Does the kill a guild leader title work out to kill 1000 unique guild leaders? Because... uhh... that's dumb. Hopefully it's "Kill a guild leader 1000 times."

I've tried doing this and it's just too frustrating when I really want to play some scenarios. I remember one night where I queued for Temple of Isha, High Pass Cemetary, and Doomfist Crater, then went off questing for at least two hours without playing any of them. Finally I relented and queued up Tor Anroc, and I had it pop in less than five minutes.
See, I would *not* queue for Tor...but I need renowns.
I know, I'm part of the problem. But it's already happened that I got to play a BFB...and that bomb one last night. So if people queue for all instead of just Tor, Tor overflow should go to the other ones.
Edit: And no, the guild leader thing is not unique. I got the first one by killing the same dude like 4 times in one scenario.(apparently I had killed others before)

I suffer from "squared" vision.
Heal heal heal oh hey look lots of red names all around me... team?

Can't wait until the range finder is perfected.
Oh gods yes, if it would just let me know visually if someone was out of range then I would be a happy happy zealot.
In between scenarios I also discovered that I could solo champions fairly easily, and up to 6 even level mobs (with great difficulty). I also learned that sometimes throwing some heals on a random hurt person who is running past me is not always a good idea. They were running from a pain train that got angry at me REAL quick like.

Wont fix anything. People dont do Tor Anroc because everyone just happened to be in elf lands and hit join. They do it because its vastly faster renown and exp than any of the others, which usually draw out to 15 minute stalemates.
A better fix would be to double the renown/exp for a different scenario every day. Or to give a bonus reward for completing every scenario in your tier.
If I run in front of you and I jump up and down like mad, that is secret marauder language for "heal me you lazy fuck"
And when I don't heal you instantly, that's secret zealot language for "I'm out of AP you jackass and need to heal people that are still under fire. Chug a heal pot or wait a minute dipshit."

Another better fix would be a better formula for earning RP and XP in scenarios. Especially one that makes it so Destro doesn't get double the XP and RP that Order gets in every scenario I'm ever in, despite the fact that Order actually wins the scenario by a good margin. Grrrr.
Last night in Tor Anroc (I'm an ironbreaker - I knock mans around) I knocked some hapless DoK into the lava and /laughed at them. Then a Witch Elf unstealthed behind me, so I used Rune Etched Axe to knock *her* into the lava, and /laughed at her. Then a black orc came up behind me and knocked me into the lava and /laughed at me, but I was able to hop back onto the land while he was standing there and knock him into the lava.

i dont even look at people on the screen usually, i look at health bars
Also, the jumping? That actually makes it harder to target you. And there's a good chance I'm dumping every action point I have into healing my guild group, not some fucktard jumpatron that's such a social reject that he doesn't have his own guild healer in tow.
You know what else makes healers want to heal you? Saving their asses a few times. People like to heal the guy who seems to be making sure they aren't dead.

Kill 1000 Guild leaders.
It might be 100. But still. That's insane. And I must haves it

I dunno, I got the "Kill X Guild Leaders" title by accidentally killing myself several times.
So you just form a guild and go kill your self 1000 times?

He looks fucking awesome.

Correct, this was the lord. But I didnt think he looked quite as cool.

I remember the nordland one having a very different head.
Also, it was much smaller.
Everyone knows that it's not an MMO unless it implements the "Higher level mobs are bigger and a different color" function.
And I /laughed at him.

In short, you are what is wrong with this game.
