It just... doesn't work. None queueing battlegrounds.

Been in queue for FWC 50 minutes yesterday, and now it feels like it'll be the same for CS.
I don't know, maybe it's just me being unlucky and everybody is getting super fast queues, which I doubt, but honestly... I'm tired of dungeons, I want to do some quick pvp match but this queue time just... doesn't work for me.
I can't even take off pvp crystals and go farm IoD because if by miracle the queue pops, I get kicked for being in pve crystals without even waiting for me to switch em, maybe that won't happen in CS but still...
What do I do? Watch my screen for 50 minutes, read a book, try to figure out the meaning of life...? What? And for what? To get in, have a 10 minutes match where the premade just facerolls gates and stone, leaving me with a "recipe" to stack, or win by luck and get 2x lakan scale, then open the victory box and drop 2 healing potions :awesome:

I know there's probably too many posts on this already, but I wanted to know why, after almost 4 years, I feel like quitting Tera.
There's always that period when I get bored of dungeons, and want to just get some healthy battleground toxicity grinding materials - I loved kumas royale for that, almost instant queue, and good credits, but if I can't do that, I guess I'm just going to watch around.

    Tera population has tanked hard in the last year~
    Quite a few pvpers have left. The new reward rng box made even more leave/stop doing battlegrounds.

    Que's suck at certain times of the day. Iv found they are best 5-12pm EST. But yes even then sometimes you can be waiting 15-45 minutes.
  • That's how I used to farm gold/materials when I got my gears, now I'm basically stuck.
    What I can say? Thanks EME for killing PvP? No, that doesn't sound right... it happened ages ago already, I shall thank EmE for making battlegrounds useless and obnoxious instead. Yeah, that feels right.

    Sorry to burst your bubble but you said it yourself.

    Tera is a game in which the only thing keeping it alive is the low population forcing it. Battlegrounds in other games take at most seconds while tera you can expect a 50 minute queue for a 10 minute dissapointment

    It shouldn't be like this, also, in May the jackpot actually worked, queue wasn't insta but it took not more than some minutes even when it was Gridiron time. What changed? I don't know, and honestly I am not interested in. I just know I can't queue bgs anymore, and that was 50% of my playtime, I enjoy pvp or alas I used to enjoy it.
    I won't anymore, so I'm leaving till things get better, if it doesn't happen, then it's a bye bye.
    I have a friend list full of people who don't log in since months, years even, I pulled the hell out of dungeons to farm for VM materials and now I just don't feel like spending time on alts to farm IoD for materials, the same, old solo content. If I enjoyed that, I'd play Skyrim instead.

    My bad. I want to play with people, but there's no1 here except for salty old pve elitists, given that pve rewards are [filtered] as well.
    I could endure spamming Kumas 50 times a day, I could endure hoping to queue in a good AIH raid when there was no LFG around because of event and rally even, I could endure people leaving LFGs for rally indeed, but after I've gone through all that and got *last patch VM*, I'm finding myself out of mental forces to keep on waiting a 50 mins queue in the hope to get a bonanza box, or some 5k badge out of victory box, to grind materials. Like I said, I enjoyed queueing BGs when I was bored of all the rest, to fill my spare time, now I can't anymore so there's nothing left for me.

    I got a bugged battleground, after trying to get in for 2days. It's over for me, I leave this game to its already low population to afk in Velika and brag about the gears they bought with EMP. When they'll realize they're just wasting their time on a ghost town, they'll do the same.

    In May they started Power Days & introduced VM9 Untradeable mats as a somewhat common jackpot.

    In June, silently nerfed the VM9 jackpots hard and here we are back to long que times.

    No one wants to waste 15-30 minutes waiting in que, to get into a battlegrounds which is another 15 minutes to lose, get a receipt (1/5) and a rejuv pot.

    There's multiple threads/replies addressing this.

    I did a fair amount of FWC yesterday, maybe you are in the wrong time zone?

    Yes and many of us continued farming oblivious to the fact talismans were no longer a reward, wasted alot of time before i realized it wasnt just bad luck... did they consider some players only needed talismans and wasted all their time trying to get an impossible reward

    How can any player continue to respect a company that treats their customers with such disrespect

    i guess being made a fool of is just second nature to tera players
  • This game has been dying for years. Here are some things that might make queueing for battlegrounds easier:

    -Play a healer (hell just make an alt if you have to, no need to gear them for battleground anyways).
    -Find a guild interested in PvP. Do guild quest for battleground, make party, queue.
    -
    I can't even take off pvp crystals and go farm IoD.
    Use the gear templates on your profile. One template for PvE crystal and one for PvP crystal.

    It was BHS that decided to remove battleground credits and replace them with those lame victory boxes, so they deserve some of the blame.
