Guild Wars 2

i have not played in probably 8+ months. i quit because my friend and I couldn’t queue up as a duo for spvp.

has this changed?? are we able to queue up and be on the same team now?

i’m a father of twin babies and i have about 2 hours of free time a week. when i do i like to get on with a friend and play some type of pvp game together as a team.

You can still duo que in team arena but the downside is you always have to face against pre-made team that could lead to frustration sometimes. Also, you tend to got more afk, leavers mid-match when your team is losing in team arena than solo arena. So my advice is either mentally prepared for the worst or soloQ, team arena with full tea,

You either need a full team or go solo…no mode for a few friends anymore. It is unfortunate, i suffer from the same problem as only a couple of my friends pvp. My advice would be try to get into a guild who will join you and your friend so you can play as a 5.

Logically this doesn’t make sense.

There is a chance you go against a full premade, yes, but if you queue as 2 then someone else queued as 3 to fill out your team, meaning the pool is full of people not queuing as a full premade.

That said, just recruit a few more people for team tourneys, you’ll make new friends that way anyway, but yes, if you don’t mind the possibility of going against a full premade now and then, you can duo-queue.

i joind in team arena with a frend and it was just the 2 of us
2-th try we are 4
dint try 3-th time

Two or three days ago I queued with two others (2x Warrior and me as Ele, 93-97% rating).
We faced 2+3 teams as well as full premades and had no leavers or afkers on either side.
In the end we won 7 or 8 matches.

So is it possible? Yes.
Can is make fun? Loads of it.
Can it be frustrating? If you are unlucky or not yet in the rating corresponding to your skill, yes. But that’s inherent to every PvP game.

How doesn’t it make sense? You either go into the solo queue or you can grab other players from your guild and join as a 5. If your in a half way decent guild at least your going to get 5 decent players which is better than you can expect if you get random’s.

It doesn’t make sense because you said that you need a full team for Team Arena, which is plain wrong.

Actually it was always possible to queue with any number of players for sPvP, hence the OP’s statement “i quit because my friend and I couldn’t queue up as a duo for spvp.” is wrong as well ;-)

You’ve always been able to do this. Still can too…
