Helzing 7 Report post Posted February 5, 2017 Sup, y'all I am planning on rolling Darrowshire PVE Horde side, now as the title says, just how active is Orgrimmar chat and horde overall? Are there alot of raids/pugs, how fast are bg queues? I assume the bg queue is long for allies, can anyone confirm? Thanks! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soullock 7 Report post Posted February 7, 2017 From alliance perspective: Last saturday I had Alterac Valley queue times between 20 and 40 minutes. Mostly 40 minutes though. Queue times should be instant for horde. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gotmilk0112 10 Report post Posted February 7, 2017 In my experiences, it can be hard to find dungeon groups for anything other than Strat UD or BRD. unless you're a tank, that is 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry for my words then lads I care for PvE purely myself, and time to time do some PvP, its mostly because i dont have the time to do PvP due to work ect. But we sure would like new ppl on the server, and the community seems good so far +3 from me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fatorc-Darrowshire 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2017 usualy 2k pop online 30% horde 70% ally you do the math. I've been trying to get into AV for a long time at 60 not 1 que i would suggest not rolling here 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dizeliun 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2017 The population is already a low-pop realm, add onto the fact that the overpop is 33% horde, makes the server extremely dead during anytime other than EU peak (~20:00ST). Regret leveling to 60 and wish I went to elysium. Zethkur probably has even more of a regret since its on same patch, but they most likely will get the merge, where as Darrow will never get a merger due to it being pve. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PvE population is way more progress oriented. We have the players who push for high standings (who will obviously not want to queue into 30 non-premade people) or people who only queue AV for the reputation. Reputation is best farmed by queueing during AV weekends. No offense, but Alterac Valley pops are not an indicator for potential population issues. 44 minutes ago, Dizeliun said: The population is already a low-pop realm, add onto the fact that the overpop is 33% horde, makes the server extremely dead during anytime other than EU peak (~20:00ST). Those numbers are plain wrong. Depending on the day and the time, Darrowshire still represents the population of a "high-pop" realm by vanilla retail standards. Your ratio is also off by quite a few percent. I can only suggest new players who wonder whether they want to roll on the realm or not to just log in, try a few levels and if still worried, talk to an experienced and/or established player - those people usually have a better overview on the server's situation than some freshly dinged 60.

I never stated any numbers, I stated the factual alliance to horde ratio and the fact that it is a low population server (in todays standards). If you think 200 level 60s is "high pop" on a faction then you are clearly ignorant to what it takes to build a thriving guild. That should be in 1 guild alone. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which data do you base your comments on then? I'd like to see your sources for those ratios. Concerning your "200 level 60s" argument - being in one of the top guilds on the server I can assure you that you don't need 200 people to get there. As a matter of fact, 40 - 50 dedicated players are often enough. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those are the only 3 guilds that are anything to look at. 50 level 60s per roster ~300 level 60s on the server horde side on at a time 5 already established guilds 50*5 = 250 300-250 = 50 thus ~50 level 60s spread across the remaining guilds all of which don't want to work together to form a solid group. The server is dead and along with it are the idiots who caused it. Edited February 21, 2017 by Dizeliun 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poly 1 Report post Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) You realise that there are stability issues currently which means a lot of players can't even log in right now? And I really don't see your line of argument concerning the second part. You take my argument, do some elementary school mathematics and put it like I proved your point. Turns out there is no way to discuss matters with you on a rational level - and as I really don't need to listen to your personal attacks, I'll just back out of it right here.

Dizeliun 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) You clearly don't comprehend the server is dying regaurdless of if there are technical issues or not. And the horde ratios is still 33% even when the servers up. YOU are the one that cannot discuss this issue because like you said, you turn it into an argument rather than a debate involving factual evidence.

Tehgenesis 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) BG queue times are instant most of the time on the horde side. However, people play only the battleground of the ongoing weekend, so do not expect AV pop during WSG or AB weekend. Horde pugs are struggling because the overall quality of team composition is usually better on the alliance side for some reason. On the contrary, horde premades win like 99% of the games. Speaking of 5 ppl dungeons, there are lots of groups running any kind of them during the EU prime time. If you want to look for 5 men group in the off hours - it might be slower, but still absolutely doable. Edited February 22, 2017 by Tehgenesis 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roxanne Flowers 15 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 I'm surprised no one has figured out that a slightly lower Horde population means less competition for open world resource spawns (mining nodes, herbs, quest items) in Horde areas. You'd think that players ought to have a fair grasp of Supply & Demand by now ... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gotmilk0112 10 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 The only "horde areas" are low level areas, for the most part. And low level herbs/ore don't sell for shit. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
