Implement Optional Faction Queues

Implement a second layer on PVP servers with a faction-balancing queue.

  • When logging in, the player can choose to join the balanced layer or the main layer. If the balance layer is full, they get a queue and an option to jump to the main layer.
  • Joining a raid or party cross-layer forces all players to be on the main layer.
  • Restrict world bosses to the main layer to avoid exploitation.
  • Perhaps give an imbalance leeway (like 55:45)

Everyone wins. Those that want it imbalanced can do so. Those that want it balanced can do so. Dominant faction won’t unsub due to boredom, dominated faction won’t unsub due to unplaybalitiy. No one has to reroll or change servers.

I prefer #nochanges, but these server population maxes are not Vanilla. What we have today is what you see here on many PVP servers:

Hundreds of dominant faction in every high level zone farm camping zone lines, flight masters, and graveyards.

Not gonna lie, I laughed when he went from outside and I was thinking, “Oh well that’s doable…” Then when he went inside and it was a hornets nest.

Also, uhhh let’s talk about the elephant in the room. And based on this video this is a legitimate question.

Do you guys have anything else to do besides sit in one zone… the whole time???

Right? The dominate faction can really only spend the day farming the dominated faction like a slow spawning non-elite mob
