Time Walking Hour long Q Times.. Buff drop

Buff doesnt even last long enough to get into the next dungeon. Big fail. Queu times are massive. Buff pls…

Hot take: buff should be permanent for the duration of the event.

what, the timewalking buff you get from the dungeon? Isnt it permanent after the 5th dungeon for the week?

Four stacks gets you a 30% increase on the xp. The time duration is two hours.

I was getting ~7min wait times or less just now on my retpal.

the 5th is supposed to convert it to a week long buff though at least from the bluepost.

oh, I see, apparently your buff gets refreshed by doing dungeons. Thats dumb.

Yeah, the fourth stack is what refreshes the 2 hours.

Before getting the mount, you must first obtain Mastery of Timeways five times. You obtain Mastery of Timeways by completing four timewalking dungeons. Completing a Timewalking dungeon grants you a stack of Knowledge of Timeways. Obtaining four stacks of Knowledge of Timeways transforms it into Mastery of Timeways.

But I can’t fathom how someone is in queue for two hours for the buff to drop.

I’ve suspected for awhile now that there’s something broken with queues. Some of my characters have ridiculously long queues (like 30+ minutes over the estimated time).

Maybe the estimation is just wrong, but I feel like some of my characters get in quickly even as DPS, and the game is pretty consistent about which ones have the super long queues.

Theres definitely a bug going on with the queue systems. I’ve found that chances are if your in the queue for 40+ minutes, if you swap characters and queue you’ll get one within 10, happened to me every time. I dunno what it is but its apparently a known bug.

thats why I run a twink, people may hate it but I love my 5 mins or less runs and my instant queue

You don’t have to swap characters, just cancel and re-queue.

One time it happened to me was after it formed a group, and the healer declined the readycheck.

I’mm averaging almost 4 dungeons per hour as a tank. Not sure why you’re saying queue times are taking forever.
