Need to know so I know how to balance the rewards. :3 With the rest of my system, say down in the comments if you vote "none of the above".(NOT talking about how long it takes to find a siege.)

    I haven't played SH Siege in many months. The last time I played, it was a lag fest and worse than domination when it comes Over Powered teams.

    This is probably the best, and most accurate answere you're going to get.
    However, before the summer fest, while it still popped every once in a while, a match could laste anything from fifteen to forty minuttes, sometimes even longer.
    Wolves, big as a horse! I need new pants!

    I think that you missed the point. The only reason that ppl put up with a broken SH siege was that it was the only place you could get the best PvP armor. That is no longer true... so, SH siege is dead.

    The reason why the rewards should be worth while to play it even after you've obtained you're gear, since if they just fix the unbalance issues when it comes to certain classes and things allowed etc, there will still be nothing drawing new players to try it out except for the competitive point, they'll soon realize that they'll be forced to either pay2win,play the market, or switch over to PvE to get the AD so they can play the way they choose. :P

    And, that is different from the game now.... how exactly?

    So they can earn AD/salvage in pvp so they don't have to go into PvE except for certain artifats etc. They'll be able to earn they're fair share with doing what they like to do.

    it take ages to pop and its full of bugs, time leaps and broken companions.
    combine that with the miss balance of equip and guild boons and you get one of the worst places to play in this game
    in the past it gave the best PVP set. now there is not alot you can do with it

    conqueror shards are still nice. but i checked my guild and most don't even do daily win for 10 shards.

    It's not a question of "don't" ... it's a question of can't

    I am a casual player. I have a life outside the game that includes both work & school. I don't have hours to play every day. My guild leader has been pushing the shards of conqueror farming pretty hard for a few months now. I finally had to log in @ a time I normally don't to have a private chat. I told her that I HAVE donated every conqueror shard I have earned for the last 3 months.... which was zero. Finally she got the message that I, & several other guildies have been sending. It's not that we don't WANT to PvP for a win... we CAN'T. Luckily, we put our heads together & found that there are now a couple of ways to earn conqueror shards with out sacrificing our pride to the hot mess that is Pvp. the Elemental Evil campaign now drops Conq. shards as a reward for a quest completing 3 HE's. The Underdark campaign offers Conq. shards as a reward. Unfortunately u hafta complete the entire campaign first. But, once you do, u can earn 5 shards per week. Good luck & happy farming.

    Last few times I played, admittedly back in mod8 I think, an average match was between 30 to 40 minutes.
    No idea what my toon is now.
