US Thinking about returning, what's the queue time like for vets?

[glancealot]

Now that exp-off and exp-on queues are separated, i would imagine that anything over 39 probably don't get any sustainable pvp.

what is the best level to twink at, I'd like <5min queues if possible! I am thinking about starting a new vet toon and just farm epics in between queues, is that a good idea?

1-8min 24hours

the 8 was in the lowest plateau, however I did have 1 or 2 games that were a 20 minute queue at like... 11pm or midnight New Zealand time

can you be a little more specific? that's for veteran toons (level 20s with sub ran out) after the latest patch, right?

sorry yeah i figured would be assumed, but i get that you want to be sure

for veterans with no current active sub, and for free to play(starter edition) 20s, yes

What is the lowest plateau?

Is this horde or alliance? Specifically I'd like to know what the average queue time is for level 20 vets on horde and alliance side?

I queued up on a 22 level alliance and a 29 level alliance characters on two different servers (Underbog and Kel'Thezud) and each queue popped in about 7 minutes between 9-10pm PST.

Guys.

There's really nothing more specific anyone can tell you than "ques are typically 5-10 minutes, trend towards 5"

Thats really as good as anyone can tell you.

I'm trying to figure out if I should play horde or alliance. One of my key reasons to pick one vs other is queue time because I have only about 1 hour a day to play. I generally know what the alliance time is from my own queuing.

Does anyone know what the horde queue time is? It could be for vets or for any xpon 20s character as they'll be the same. None of the people in this thread mentioned horde/alliance and this is something specific someone can help me with. I've read elsewhere that horde queue times are double alliance so that would easily decide my path, but I prefer horde.

*Sigh*

when I que on my horde toons, que times fall between 5 and 10 minutes, though they tend towards the five minute mark.

Thanks! I'll rock some horde then.

Good!

FWIW, alot of that talk about long horde que times was because for a while, we had a glut of horde premades queing into very few alliance, who tended to solo que.

Times are pretty even these days.
