1. I like the new scenario queue system. Works really well and I think it's the best you can get out of that queue system. Fun in scenarios increased due to more equal matches.
I am a returning player and have not played in years.
but my experience with Scenarios as a Destro player is honestly not good.
It got so annoying i actually started taking notes of things.
Out of 42 sc on my tank. There has been 27 where order had one more healer. out of those 12 destro had No healer at all.
Out of those 42 sc it was only 5 where Destro had more healers than order.
Out of those 42 sc. 11 order had 1 more player than Destro while destro only had 1 more player in 3 of those scenarios.
31 sc as a healer it is pretty much the same 19 order had one more healer. in 8 out of those i was the only healer on destro side while order had 2
and 7 out of those order had one more player. and only in 2 destro had one more player.
Many of those sc was still fairly even so if we had not been lacking heals or had one player less we could probably have won.
That makes it feel like lots of Sc we lost when i played was simply due to mismatch in the scenario and that we would have had a decent chance if we was not lacking healers or being one player less so often. and no system is perfect there will always be flaws but from my very limited data it seems like for any one reason or another order might benefit from this system. be it they have more players or that destro players more often queue up but don't join or whatever. reason. it might be
There was other things i noticed to like it was more common that destro tanks had very little to no protection done at all.
More often Destro had healers that mainly healed themselves and not the team. About twice as common as it was on order side.
But none of those things can be blamed on the scenario queue system. As that comes down to playstyle of individual players not the queue system while the first things at least could have something to do with the queue system.
But this is just my personal notes based on stats from scenarios and only 73 scenarios i actually taken date from is to little to really get any reliable info from.
I started noticing this way before i started writing down date from sc. But at that time i was not sure if it was actually the case or if i imagined as we tend to remember the negative things better so i figured i could just imagine things. So i started taking notes and so far the date has lined up with that.
I have played on very different times. about 1 third of those scenarios was done during US evenings. About one third during European evenings and the rest on other off times.
And to end things off. i want to note again that even if i kept track of this and the numbers i provide is actual data from my scenarios. 42 scenarios is not enough to be called real facts. It is just what i personally noticed while looking over stats after scenarios and keeping track of it
And others might have their own experiences that completely contradict my hastely gathered data.
Edit: should point out this is only from random sc in T2, no organized play or max level play.
I have played around a tiny bit on order side but as i strongly prefer Destro my date is so small from order side it is almost irrelevant i only have date from 9 sc as healer on order side. and on those we had one more healer than order in 2 of them. And destro never had more healers than us. But again that is even less data than i have from destro side but it kinda lines up with the date from destro. Also i all of those order sc was played during US evening time so no time spread there.
