Allow queues to continue while doing a follower dungeon

Anything we can do to get more people in pvp queues is good I think. I don’t see any reason for a follower dungeon to freeze other queues, especially pvp ones that can be quite long at times.

Let other queues run while you are in a follower dungeon. Not a huge thing, but little things add up.

It’s freezing pvp queues and next patch completely removing the ability to join one while in pvp combat thanks to fragile ego wpvp players who are afraid to die and escape to them, heal up/wait for cds/toys.

I really don’t care about wpvp and don’t see what that has to do with this. I am fine with not joining while in combat. Nothing in a follower dungeon will take that long

I just want to be able to keep the queue running while I do other things as long as it doesn’t screw over other players. Wpvp hopping into a follower does screw over other players. To me it should just count as a kill if someone bails while in wpvp content.

This plus delves.

I made a post about this in general awhile ago and got flamed, but I love the idea. I hate sitting queue and not being able todo anything else OR losing my progress in the existing content to take a queue.

Great idea and would be awesome considering how much solo content is being added.

I think as long as you are not in a queued thing with any other players it should keep going. No reason for it not to. They are making the game more solo friendly, and that is great but they need to allow those things to be usable while waiting for groups or else the random group content will see lower queue times.

Would love to run some delves or follower dungeons to farm some mats while waiting in pvp queue.

Yep, same. Also, it’s just something todo. Be nice if the game just always returned you to right where you were. Be it a delve, dungeon, raid, whatever.

Agreed. Less hassle more gaming.

The queues need to freeze the way they are, here’s why Back in 2005 June when AV and WSG came out, you could get a queue pop while in WSG and if you were losing WSG you could take AV right in the middle of the game you are in in WSG. This continued for years until blizzard finally stopped it.

If you are say in a BG and it pops now, before you take the join, if you are not in another EBG or Arena or whatever, you can select that before you go into your popped run. When you get out, almost like 30 seconds after you get out, your queue will pop faster for the next run, I just keep them coming, before going in, I queue, play that game, get out pop and EBG is up, I queue for an BG, when EBG is done the BG Pops over and over and over i can play game after game that way.

Try it sometime, no they are not going to let you switch to another BG while you are in the middle of another.

The work around I see now is, we are losing the game because we don’t know how to win the game in the first place so we have a bunch of toons we like to play that are exactly the same, we leave the BG or EBG or whatever you are playing, get the 15 deserter, and go play another character that is setup exactly like the one with the deserter. We can go back to the Deserter later when it expires.

Obviously no one cares about team mates today.

Did you not read what I wrote? Queues should not be frozen when you are not in a group with other people. Solo follower dungeons are completely different then bailing on a pvp match or another group

What you wrote really has nothing to do with what I am talking about.

This sounds like you want to queue up for a PVP dungeon, do world PVP, get ganked, jump into a follower dungeon to avoid being killed while keeping your queue placement?

I do see you don’t want to use for that per your other post, just what it sounds like :stuck_out_tongue:

Still doing it sadly. I’ve seen a few bail today though not sure how.

I’ve seen this too, but only for regular queues. The change that they did in 11.1 was you specifically can’t join a follower dungeon queue in combat. Any other queue like arena or BG still work mid combat.

I believe you can also FD/Shadowmeld/Vanish and take the queue as well, so long as you’re out of combat pretty much.

Do you plan to play any shuffle?

Mmm maybe, but I’ll probably stick to BG Blitz though tbf. I find that more fun than solo shuffle.

Been playing Havoc Aldrachi DH lately and it’s been a blast.

Not sure how I can explain it easier.

When I am IN A FOLLOWER DUNGEON, I would like to be able to keep other queues running.

Not when I am in world pvp
not when I am in group content with other players.

Just turn off the queue freeze when I am IN A FOLLOWER DUNGEON.

Is that clear enough?

Oh come on, you were just flat out wrong. Just say sorry and move on. These backhanded comments are so silly. No big deal it’s internet communication and things get twisted but multiple people seeing what they want and attacking an idea is annoying.

It’s even worse when people don’t just own it.

Why would I say sorry when you can’t read? You should say sorry to me :wink:

Wow, that is pretty childish. I will stop talking to you now. That’s just ridiculous.

You mad bro?
