So with all that crap above here I can conclude that within the 1.75 hours I gained almost half of what someone that just joined first available did. Now keep in mind that this is for the battle group of Vengeance and is subject to change based on the turn over rate per BG. Maybe I just had a bad night?

i think you had a bad night

Just a warning: non-participation of any form, be it AFK botting, legit AFKing, killing harpies, etc. can warrant:

-A 24, 48, or 72 hour suspension.
-Removal of all your honor.
-Removal of all BG tokens.
-Removal of all arena and honor PvP gear.

The punishments are very severe. Just one GM ticket could result in all of your gear being removed permanently. Sheeit, I recommend you warn people of this.

Remember (for example) when AB17 ends it is marked free and a new bg can take its spot. So what if your AB queue pops at AB16 and you figure well 17 must be ongoing cause it is a higher number you would be wrong. AB1 is just as likely to be a new bg as any other because of this. However you do increase your chances of getting a GIP (game in progress) doing this. I tried it all day while farming honor and it worked a few times.

Common sense not an exploit.

Nice guide. Not common sence for me 'cause I didn,t think of doing this in 3 years of playing. +rep

A way to make this even better.. is for example, Queue up for AB, and EOTS at the same time. If you enter for example AB first, and it's a new game, just wait until EOTS pops and join it. If AB is almost over, then decline the EOTS invite. This way you have two options to find a BG in progress. And no, you won't be penalized for this.

Too bad this is all for nothing soon

[Pomegranate]

Not quite an exploit, but thanks

I was just forced into a new AB. Perhaps I went too high, I'll try only +2 next time. Luckly I have that macro that leaves bg.
