Bornakk: Incoming Arena queue relief in 2.4
Given this, it seems they'll likely impose similar requirements in the PvE arena. Thus, I would expect them to dial back the power of the badge loot a bit, perhaps always keeping it at the level of the latest 10 man loot or slightly higher - strong enough so that people can customize their gear and get a few drops to keep them happy when certain items just won't drop, but weak enough that 25-man raiders still have reason to keep downing bosses.
The 2.4 badge loot, while closing the gap between uber and casual gearing for WoTLK, might be considered just a bit too powerful. With the new season 4 ratings requirements, Blizzard seems to be genuinely moving away from the "welfare epics" stigma, trying to make higher end gear more of a genuine challenge to get.
Bornakk revealed a welcome bit of future patch info on the general forums recently, announcing that there is an incoming improvement on a future 2.4 update that should lower arena queuing times across the board. This is definitely welcome news for many of us, although those who counted on getting chores done during the queue might get a little disappointed!
We've heard in the past that blizzard didn't want to rush in to any quick fixes and was considering the queue time issue carefully, so hopefully that means they've found a solution that will stick. Thus far, aside from the occasional mishap from a sneaky warlock and the lack of certain expected class changes, they seem to have had a smooth and well received patch on their hands.
While some people were asking for a hot fix in the thread, Bornakk assured them that the change was complicated enough that needed a patch. Being someone who often ends up running his 2v2s on Saturday or Sunday evening and experiences queue times that sometimes climb to 10 minutes or more, I'd say the wait will be worth it if it means I don't have to wait around quite so long in the future. Faster queue times, at the least, mean I can fit another daily or two in.
