    First off, Welcome to Cyrodiil :smile:

    To enter a Cyrodiil campaign, open up the campaign menu, select a campaign and queue for it. In order to queue for a campaign, you will need to set a campaign as either your home or guest campaign. The difference between the two is that your home campaign records your Alliance Points on a leaderboard, as well as awarding rewards based on your performance in the campaign when the leaderboards reset. Guest campaigns don't track Alliance Points, nor do they award rewards.

    If you see a "Lock" icon for your alliance for that campaign, it means the campaign is full for your alliance. If you wish to join, you'll have to queue until someone in that campaign leaves, and only then you can join. While you are waiting, why not join a campaign that has an underrepresentation for your alliance? You'll have no queues and can instantly hop into Cyrodiil. Though, I recommend the non-veteran campaign as an excellent place to learn the ropes.

    Speaking of basics, I wrote a guide for new players on how to stay alive in Cyrodiil. The link to the guide can be found in my signature. I hope it is of use to you.

    This one hails from far Singapore, excuse this one for his high pings. He also apologizes for any formatting/spelling errors, as he tends to answer using a mobile device.

    Insanity is the price of Knowledge. Herma-Mora and Sheogorath, this one bows before thee.

    This one does not advocate for any class to be nerfed. There are far deeper underlying issues then a simple "Class Imbalance". The Champion System is the problem. Not classes.

    Please read this before creating yet another nerf thread.

    Depending on your platform, specifically console, the queues could be incredibly long (hours). Best advice would be to home the campaign in which your faction is not full, which is represented by a lock on the campaign selection menu. If the solo queue is really long you could group with someone and try the group queue, but that usually isn't faster.

    Also, if you are queued up for something pay attention to your notifications. If you get your invite to enter the campaign while in a menu it will go to your notifications. This is easy to over look, and you only have a minute to respond. Players will often think they are still in the queue, but really they have missed their invite and are waiting on nothing, so don't let that happen.
