At least on alliance my que times are about 5 mins horde like 20 mins but yea. The hp of galv in the 70-79 bracket is way to high. Gotta think most people in that bracket are 70-75 not to many more higher then that. I think blizzard ruined the fun i mean i still do av dont get me wrong but now alliance on my bg loses more cause we dont have ne 80's. Just wonder what 80's are like might go in and see how bad we do there before i give up on alliance. Horde sux 60-69 but im 5 lvls away from being outta there then its on like i dont know what. Not using the donkey kong one its to you know typical of a saying lol. So its on like a lesbian and a strap on. Oh thats a good one saving for later use lol.

Every game in the 70's is a reinforcements attrition war... It takes a really long time to kill Balinda as well due to hit/miss level problems.

Queues are hoooooorrible.

Cenarius - US - Alliance side.

Afternoon queue (PST) was 18 mins when I stepped away from the computer.
Came back 12 mins later and had missed the queue..

So somewhere in the 18-30 min queue range for AV's.
71-79 bracket.

Took me 15mins to get into AV in the 70-79 bracket in the stormstrike battle group. Galv gave around 11.5k xp without heirlooms, same for IP tower. Unfortunately that was all we managed to get.

Does anyone know how much xp the other BG's are giving now? I'll try and have a look later today when I get a chance.

So it looks like they bumped up the exp by about 1-2k per tower? I guess that's not too bad. Going to try and get my Druids to 80 by Hallow's Eve.

Ualaa are you the one i met last night in Cenarius with your 5 shammies? If so it was good talking to you :)

Galv health is still the same. XP seems to be about 11.5k per tower now. Queue times are at least 15 minutes.

I'd argue health is a poor indicator of difficulty. Target Level and incoming DPS would be a better gauge IMO.

Tr00 dat :)
