Upcoming Arena Matchmaking Optimizations

Greetings, Wanderers,

We've noticed that some of you are experiencing high latency and poor performance during cross-server matches in the Arena. To address this, we will be optimizing our matchmaking rules this week. Here are the details:

  1. Priority Matching Within Your Battlegroup

The system will now prioritize matching you with other players from your own server within the same Battlegroup. This is intended to reduce latency and improve match stability. If a suitable opponent isn't found on your server, the search will then expand to other servers within your Battlegroup.

For example: HK/Macau/Taiwan server players will be matched with HK/Macau/Taiwan players first; US East with US East; US West with US West.

  1. Server Assignment for Cross-Region Matches

If your physical location is different from your selected Battlegroup's region (e.g., an Asian player choosing a US Battlegroup) and you are matched with a US player, the match will be hosted on the US player's server.

We will continue to closely monitor latency and optimize the matchmaking experience. We encourage all Wanderers to report any lag or stuttering you encounter via our official channels. Tackling latency is a long-term commitment, but we are dedicated to making steady progress. Thank you for your understanding and support.
