Ardygon Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Hi, I've been trying to find some information about server population and activity on them. Is there an up-to-date site for this? I'm currently playing on The Proginator and last night i got disheartened when i was queued up for an instance for 6 hours straight through group finder and not a single instance popped up. I'm very thankful for every decent and polite responses this question will get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TkTopher Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Try looking under MySWTOR and looking at server status it gives a pop indication there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardygon Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 I have looked there but it's not showing much details at all. Every time i look all the servers are either light or Standard. at the same time so it's hard to figure out which server is actually a bit more active than the others. Another interesting feature i'm missing is the ratio between republic / Empire players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of curiosity: - which class/role did you queue as? - what exactly was it for? (Flashpoint/Operation/Warzone/GSF, Storymode/Hardmode)?

TkTopher Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I play on the same server as you and I have never waited anywhere close to that amount of time....very weird :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danylia Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 - Flashpoint (level 50+ normal) I thought so. You would probably have big problems to find a group for it even as a tank (unless it was one of the Czerka ones). At level 50 people start to queue right for Hardmodes, there's basically no incentive to do level 49+ Flashpoints in Storymode. If it was Battle of Ilum/False Emperor, try asking directly on Ilum (still a small chance, but they can be 2-manned or even soloed with decently geared players and companions). Directive 7/Kaon Under Siege/The Lost Island - again, try asking directly on the Fleet, but don't expect miracles either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much harder is hardmode? I got 3 lvl 50 purple gear with highest mods, rest is random quest loot and commodation gear from vendors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time the HM is that the bosses have more health and hit harder. Throw in the occasional avoidable AOE and you're done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmanaugust Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 your on a pretty crappy server http://www.torstatus.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimG Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 - Sith Assassin - DPS - Flashpoint (level 50+ normal) I know it's a dps and dps have to wait longer but 6+ hours? Yeah, people don't really run those level 50 story mode flashpoints very much because the rewards are pretty useless for people at end-game. It has nothing to do with server population. It has to do with you trying to run flashpoints that basically no one else want to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimvinny Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Queuing as DPS only? If you queue multiple roles you will get groups more often. Don't encourage people to queue for multiple roles when they shouldn't be. He clearly stated he was dps, which means he shouldn't be queuing as tank.
