For how much time we spend waiting for queues, the heart of the mists waiting room really needs something more. It’s probably going to fall on deaf ears but something like letting people duel would alleviate a lot of boredom..
Also although I know the general approval of courtyard is quite poor, being completely gutted and removed feels like wasted resources to me. Leave it in as a checkbox for queuing. Support conquest as a true ranked mode and continue to balance around it sure, but let us have some more variety with unranked modes. People that want to avoid TDM can do so.
HoT PvE was something I was really impressed with, but sPvP was my lifeblood in this game and after getting all my wanted hero point unlocks, I came back to the mists. So we have a new stronghold mode that’s still in beta testing and elite specs that threw the balance in flux, great not much else. That’s a kittenty feeling
