BattleGrounds Soloqueue Bonus

Adding 10-15% bonus AP for soloqueueing battlegrounds will help incentivize people to soloqueue. It is less demoralizing when you get 4man’d knowing you get a slight AP increase for doing so. There is already incentive to 4man. Winning gives you ~15k. While second place gives you ~12k, and losing gives you ~10k. You will still get less AP than first if you lose, but it will not sting as bad.

I don’t think a solo queue is ever coming. This seems like a nice alternative without hitting queue populations.

    That’s a good idea. Heck, even sub 50 I just had a game that couldn’t fill. There were two full premades on the other teams and we were stuck at 2 people as solo queuers.
    Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
    Havoc Warhammer - Alair
    LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
    PRX and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
    Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten

    Good idea, I actually really enjoy going into BGs solo and stomping premades. Feels good sir!

    Can we abolish the mmr system first? Tired of fighting the same 20 players every single bg I play......

    As a solo queuer, I strongly support this idea.

    Although, if you can pull over 9k points in high MMR TDM via solo queue, maybe you don't need the bonus. ;-)

    bgs already give too much ap, at this point premades should just only be able to play against premades

    I find this perplexing. An hour of bg gets me something like 45k ap. It could be a bit more but the queue slows down matches. An hour of Cyrodiil with my pvp guild gets me around 100k. I don’t see bg as overly generous.

    This is a good idea. Positive reinforcement, rather than negative. I'd also personally like to know which people came in as a group, but that could be a little intrusive, so that's really up for discussion.

    I want to know what the other team had for break fast.
