On my server Karak-hirn, why do all chose ONLY Tor Anroc??
I want to see the 4 other Scenarios some time.
5 days now .. only Tor Anroc is chosen, heard that Order take that becouse they have upperhand on Pushing ppl into lava.

two reasons.

1. the first scenario that pops up when you hit the join scenario button gets rotated each week. this week it's Tor Anroc

2. Usually the scenario don't last that long so it's quite easy for people to grind it over and over and get nice amonts of xp/renoun

cause its good for the Order and bad for Destruction

hi dwarf knockback!

only thing you can do as melee is hide, if you poke your nose out your knocked down in the lava where you move 1 mm/h and die

Sure, I understand the lava hurting, but WHY! did they have to make it so you get slowed so the chance of getting out of it is slim to none? isnt the fact that while in a RvR scenario, just getting hurt for the period of time it would take to get out not be enough?

but but it's the Destros signing up for nothing else, because they're bound to get to the bauble first! honest!

Got nothing to do with Tor Anroc being the first map to chose from (until recently).

I prolly have a 50/50 win ratio/lose ratio in Tor Anroc, just its sooo boring, why do people play that scenario? I try to queue for others, but then I might aswell just head off to bed as that never happens, while there is a top 5 min queue on TA

but then again, I guess it wont change as soon as the masses start getting past the lvl 22-31 scenario they just wont care any longer

because ppl like to swim in the lava, eventhough temple of isha is superior in every way.

Its crazy really, both Talabec Dam and Lost Temple of Isha have given me something like 5-10k more xp and varying between 500-1500 more rp. Getting 20k xp and 2k renown a scenario is nice and no lava for the 'skillful' to knock you into.

I dod one game of Isha the other day. Quite an interesting scenario though the objective is surrounded by little bits and pieces of concrete where Sorcerers can just stand behind while doing their rift thingy on the other side. On top of that it's a bit too much of a Mourkain Temple scenario where it all comes down who has the best 'setup'.

I prefer a more open zone with different objectives or with more ways of actually defending/attacking something.

Oh yes, TA is getting boring.

We queue for all scenarios (we are destro) but for us as well its only tor anroc that pops first.

I think the Talabec dam scenario is awesome but i have played it twice since getting 21 now i'm 29 almost 30.

I love temple of isha and im sad not a lot of people play it :(
TA is a massive stress fest.

Order has an insane knockback advantage which seems to nullify the advantage destro has by getting to the bauble early.

i definitely think people should play temple of isha more. or talabec dam.
They are just more enjoyable and more scenic :D Hate high elf pansies but i do admire their taste in architecture :) So its a good thing we can always conquer their buildings :p

i think its the join all addon alot of people are using.

On the bottom of each list in each tier is the senario that most people whine about joining all the time. The addon queues 'em from bottom to top. So im guessing first queued equals first to pop.

Thats Nordenwatch, Morkain temple and Tor Anroc.

Hoping the new join all button in the next patch will solve this.

I queued for all of them last night and tor anroc is always the first :/ sucks so much because temple (definately the best t3 scenario) and dam are so much more fun.

Every group I'm in, we queue for all scenarios in T3. I've only ever got into Tor Anroc.

Tor Anroc is the fastest, when people first started doing T3 scenarios TA came up the most as it goes fastest. Also TA give the most xp as you get so many free kills in lava.
TA is 8min you get ~16k xp, other scenarios is 15min for less. Do the maths, even if you are loosing TA give the best xp (unless you are really crap and loose 500 - 0)

Because of this mindset, there wont be any variety in popping scenarios till Mythic decides to give bonus renown/XP to one scenario per day on a rotating schedule.

I am not blaming you BTW, just trying to make a point.

I queue for them all but Tor Anroc and Talebec Dam come up quite a lot. I prefer Tor Anroc, even with the knockbacks.

I got my first go on the graveyard (High Pass Cemetary?) one last night, that's really fun with two capture points. Temple of Isha is ok but the winners are usually bunched together which makes it tough to wipe them without coordination, same as Doomfist Crater I think it is. I find the final one, Capture the flag, the most boring. Wish I could play Phoenix Gate again :)

Because I'm full Asuryan spec on my AM and Cleansing flare (100yd range AoE knockback) is amazing fun :)

Talabac and Isha can give more RP/XP per game but TA gives more per hour I guess

Yes its much fun having your character act as a tennisball between orderplayers.... Knockback shoould be toned down quite a bit imo. or at least give destro an equal amount of knockback classes as that level.

OTT man OTT :)

Like the geezer above me said. "TA give the most xp as you get so many free kills in lava". Not on destro side you dont! :p

Order may have more clases with knockback, but their knockbacks aren't as good as he ones available on destro, two classes can get knockback on you before youre even close enough to get in the first hit that you have to do before using a knockback on a swordy, that's just insane when the flying disc class (can never remember the name but in real warhammer it would be a chaos sorc) fires off a root then blasdts you with knockback from a distance.

I'm sure you mean those two classes are ironbreaker and archmage, at least it feels that way for me playing destro. The latest trend seems to be that every class that can get knockback on the order side specs for it and base their whole strategy on knocking people into lava. It just takes the piss tbh and order always got more people that can knockback than destruction.

Anyways, temple of isha and doomfist crater are damn fun. Wish more people would sign up for those. And even if it lasts maybe twice as long as anroc, I still get 4 times as much rp and exp for it than anroc.

Thats a loadsa shit.. sorry but it is..

shamans.. archers... casters .. x2 tank type classes for destruction can knock back into lava... and unless im mistaken those healer types that can carry a skull can also (seen em a cple times do it today)

As sum1 said above.. Order go there cos turn over of exp and renoun is faster than other bgs... and im guessing same reason for Dewstruction.. also Destruction are CLOSER to the flag.. so they go there as they tend to win games more often due to getting flag 1st

Well I'm boycotting the Tor Anroc from now on .... I refuse to be a a tennis ball for the Order players any more! ... Seems like I'm spending more time in the air than on the ground.

Its not hard to see why Order players prefer that scenario :)

Destruction start position has been pushed back in Tor Anroc. Only saw Dest get bauble first a handful of times tonight. We tried to avoid TA but after an hour or so of no scenarios caved in and went back. So if thats your main beef you can safely join in again ;)

Order basically always have a standard in TA these days as a result of the old spawn points, destro due to their previous dominance don't seem to have caught on that it's almost mandatory yet.
