Guild Wars 2

I have been having awfully bad matches queing between 10:00 17:00, like when normal ppl work. I was wondering what peoples experience is on queing at different times.
i live near amsterdam for timezone

Logic dictates that the best time would be something like 19:00-22:00, as that will be the peak moment of people being online. Thus, the PvP system has the largest pool of players to select your match-up from at those hours, which should lead to the most balanced matches. However, I have no clue if this is also the case in practice instead of only theory.

I don’t know but it works better during the week for me. Sunday is the worst day, more rage, strange builds and iddle.

Logic could also dictate that only player really invested in the game play at strange hours giving a better rooster to pick from. We will never know.

Well the best method to get somehow balanced matches is the friendlist. Add a bunch of players that are on a almost equal skill-level.
When u added > 10 you know when they are online so the chance of getting matched with those is higher.

I cant determine a day when its working good for me or not. I reached rank 72 (~1725) with 32 games… then dropped down to 1560 and climbing again to 1660. One week i get really bad games on sunday and the next week i nearly win 8 out of 10 matches with 500 >250…. .

Best method add people to your friendlist. And if you get 2 really bad games in a row … simply stop playing or you will drop like i did.

I think I’ve been getting the best match-ups on saturdays from 12.00 to 16.00, and as Defuser said, if you get into a loss streak, get out of PvP and try again the next day or maybe a few hours later.
