  • Why is battleground during the World Boss?

    I play on server 13, and since the patch, battleground takes place during the 22:00 world boss. Can you please fix this, as I'm sure I'm not the only one frustrated with this. Prior to the patch the battleground took place from 21:00-22:00 prior to the world boss. This time slot is currently empty.

    Maybe it's not the same for everyone, but I work during the day, so I can only play after 17:00. So it's fine and dandy that you have several battleground opportunities from 13:00-16:00, but that does nothing for players who can only play in the evening.

    This is an east coast server, the event times should reflect that. It doesn't make sense, that the only battleground i can participate in is from 23:00-23:30.

    My particular situation aside (although I'm sure many people are in a similar situation), it really should be blatantly obvious that you shouldn't hold the battleground during the world boss.


    Please fix this.

    ok,... if you could change the times, what do you want them changed to ? and i am asking that, as too many people want change but they have no idea what possible alternatives are valuable

      Suggestion: Put them back to half hour rotation. This would be very viable.

        16:30, 17:00, 17:30, 21:00, 21:30, 22:30 are all time slots with no events scheduled currently.

        If it has to overlap an event I would mind it less during arena hours 18:00, 18:30, 19:00, 19:30, but I don't see why it has to overlap anything.

        Basically any time slot but world boss or guild battle.

          ok.... what about guild events such as the guild tree,devine altar, plus players catacomb, solo dungeons, multi player dungeons and two hour altar of ennoblement...... those have to be considered for the players as well

          the majority of the issue is how do you have the different events for the players to do, while leaving time for guilds and players dailies.... and we have more events coming, that are going to have to be slotted in some where.....

          its impossible to create a working situation that is going to keep players happy so what is done, is for the majority....

            Half hour rotation would eliminate the issue - at least for the current 5x setup. I understand there might have been a drive to a full hour timeslot so that the double honor scroll can't be cheesed an extra minute or two for a second BG but still, this would create no extra problems.

            Use the current lineup of hours: 13:00, 13:30, 14:00, 14:30, 15:00.

                Hi Kitwritten

                Why cant we have the old BG and WB time back? Meaning Guild Battle at 20:00, Battle Ground at 21:00, and last WB at 22:00?

                  Call me pessimistic, but I really feel they removed back-to-back BG's in order to force double consumption of pots and/or keep Double Honor scrolls from overlapping those first few minutes of the next one.

                    lol call me kit.... lol

                    the majority of players will never say anything.... about 1% of the total players will post on the forums so it comes down to a numbers game and thats something that happens behind the scenes.....

                      Put it back at the old time, following guild battle. This has been complained about regularly since S1 and the other unfortunates got it rolled out to them as guinea pigs

                        I do not see the problem. I went to world boss and then to BG. The WB only takes a few minutes.

                            This will change. As your server nukes the WB under a set amount of time (~10 minutes?), the WB HP will increase. This will in turn stall out your "quick rush" to the accompanying BG.

                            On our server, we get around 9 minutes of time at the specified BG.

                              Yes, you can just participate in WB 1 round, then go for BG. It's not a matter of any individual person or server is it? We would like to change in order for everyone to participate fully in all the event possible.
