Nothing will change if it is supported by random daily thread bumpers.
Where is Revolol, when you make a thread you must come with better arguments to increase supporters of your cause. I guess he has changed his mind and prefers current system like us now, since there is no response from him recently…
The guild i was in that was focused on PVP and ran some arena/rbgs now almost inactive most left till 9.1. My friend list is a shadow of what it was like 2 months ago.
If gear/balance issue still persist as they now in 9.1 they would successfully kill their own pvp scene.
Even I’m burnout nowadays. Engagement drops has little to do with gearing in both PvE and PvP.
Yesterday I whispered to the healer I play with around 1500 cr nowadays “Know that I’m taking a little break to recharge, we will continue playing soon, I feel burnt out after thousands of arena match, hundreds of battlegrounds, dozens of M+, 1/10 raids ( ) I’ll come back stronger than ever! ”
That’s it. It has been 5 months since launch, participation drop is extremely normal and not tied to gearing directly.
Why not man? Devs say they like to get feedback on the forums because they can’t watch every video (feedback stoopz got). If enough people bump it maybe somebody will eventually see and do something. Certainly better than giving up of trolling like some people.
At this point they need to condense. I like the first approach by going back towards two PVP gear sets honor and conquest with no upgrade system. If they insist on an upgrade system they have to cut honor costs in half and also increase conquest gains.
As for rating locking they had to ease up on that by season four of WotLk so I suspect they might try that.
If they INSIST on having upgradable gear then everyone needs to be able to do it by grinding honor or what not, it can’t be gated behind rating. They can let higher rating people get it faster by giving out more conq due to rating… but at the end of the day the playing field NEEDS to be level in rated/non rated pvp.
if they’re really stuck on rating gates they should at least make each jump 3 ilvl instead of 6/7
there’s literally no excuse at this point with the return of scaling
