Thumbs down It takes *so* long to get into a battle....

Seriously, as I'm writing this, I've sat through 27 timer resets as I wait to get into an alliance battle (playing Kurzick). Can anything be done for this (I'm guessing there's just a lack of player), but this is ridiculous

EDIT: 38 and counting.

Luxons never have a problem getting in. Here's why: there are more kurzicks then luxons, so it takes longer to get you matched up with 12 luxons since you outnumber us.

The same you have at the competative missions like fort aspenwood and jade quarry. Its to bad... but hopefully more and more ppl will finish the game and start playing this type of GW:factions, because i like it very much!

As of last night when i logged off, it cost 2 million more faction to take Cavalon than it does to take House zu Heltzer. Take it for what its worth, but it sure doesn't make it sound like there's a huge shortage of Luxons.

There are fewer Luxons. I was in Kurzick guilds and playing Kurzick up until a night or two ago, now my guild went Luxon. I have no problem getting in. Many times the first attempt, and it is almost 9 o clock right now. The down side is Luxon are horribly nub. When I was Kurzick I got a bad group maybe 2/5 times. With Luxon it's 9/10 and a lot of times we just get molested on the battlefield and a bunch of dumb ass PvE wammos and asses running around being stupid...at any rate, you can get in faster if you are Luxon.

Luxon reqs more skill then playing kurzick because your 4 party has to make up for the 8 other noobs you get grouped with most of the time. How do you do that? I'll keep that secret .

On an interesting note, for the past couple of days, I've been getting in very quickly. Out of 5 battles, the most timer resets I've had is two.
