I have to say... This game is pretty damn sweet.

I mean, I don't even have to grind. I'm just realizing
this now. I've been playing the game for a while,
but now with the pvp exp boost, I fully realize that quests
are a thing of the past.

I can roll a character, run the very first 5 or so noob quests
in like 10 minutes, then jump into pvp and start leveling.
I'm leveling in pvp faster than I can questing.

This is great...

Wow, weird. I was just asking where PK was on vent last night :)

Sup pk.

It'll be great until they do something to nurf scenarios, then you'll be back to quest grinding with some sort of sporadic PVP.

between sc's, pq's, open rvr, and regular questing there isn't much need to grind.

its not like quests are tough or time consuming

At times I would say scenarios are a grind :/

I would agree with you if you are doing the same map over and over

Not to mention its absolutely pointless to pug with order on this server.

pugs are a no go for me

I never did it in wow and I would probably ctrl-k if I tried in WAR

one scenario being played at each tier is pretty much grinding

if i have to play serpent's passage for the rest of the game then i'm pretty much spent

don't queue for that one and do other things in the meantime.

If you're only playing the game for its scenarios you'll be done pretty soon I think

The scenarios are fun, but that keep attack we did last night was by far the most fun I've had in PvP yet. It got frustrating because we weren't really making any progress, but just running around beating people down, the dynamics of having to ram the door, siege equipment, it was all pretty cool. I could definitely see spending a lot of time in the end game running around and sieging keeps :)

i'm glad they fixed the rams, that was much better than it used to be.

the only frustrating thing was the fact that were 7 of us, half barely into T2 as it was and we were joining a siege in progress that was completely disorganized.

Actually I guess it was all kinds of frustrating. We were on the lord with like 4 tanks handling all the bodyguards etc and I look over to the stairs and see like 3 tanks just hanging out there. Seriously wtf. Meanwhile 7 of us on vent are coordinating but trying to get the other 13 random dudes to listen was akin to wrangling kittens.

Problem is, sometimes (a lot of the time) its the only option.

I don't think you would ever have that problem with BE or us.

Serpent's Passage.

Fuck. That.

If you drop that queue and stay queued for the others, you'll wait 30+ minutes, then end up in an imbalanced scenario that ends 2 minutes in when it's 3v5.

Why aren't the other scenarios popping?

I'm in BE and I have to rock bg's solo most of the time. And yea Graphicx, there can be good pug games too, but 9/10 its such a waste of time. Yesterday I did ~15 bg's between t1/t2 and only 2-3 of those had healers on Order side.

I agree Gringo, I've done nothing but Nordenwatch and Mourkins Temple.
