They won’t admit of course, but most of these players that defend the current system, just want to stomp undergeared players at random BGs and flex their gear advantage to inflate their egos. Sad…

exactly lol, you can always tell that’s the only reason they like the current system. they can get elite in rbgs and mong their way through arenas slowly but surely

No, the more people in PvP the higher the likelihood of having terrible people on my team. tbh there’s too many people in PvP right now because of how easy honour gear is to get, random BGs have always been a cesspool but they’ve never been this bad.
basically, Imagine you’re a Mythic raider, but your gear only scaled to Mythic iLvL when in a Mythic Raid, everywhere else you have the same gear as people who ran LFR. is that great for the masses of people who do LFR? of course. is there much incentive to do Mythic raiding? very little.
example #2. We might not see 9.1 for 6 months, I’m currently fully geared in 220 gear, if I have no reason to push rating what incentive do I have to login for the next 6 months?

Lmao, there will always be bad players no matter what gearing system is in place.
PvE =/= PvP and we need to stop treating the gearing systems as such. Bad comparison for pretty obvious reasons. PvE is about killing scripted monsters, PvP is about killing other players through your own skill/synergy with your teammates etc.
Oh I dunno, to get better? Push higher rating? Get titles? You know, the whole point of competing in the first place. B)

perfectly accurate example.
that’s your incentive not mine, I like getting stronger in an MMO.

Grinding rating this season is an absolute slog. Just miserable right now. I would probably q like 10x the games if I didn’t have so many chores to do. I really hope they put in templates or scale item level. Anything would be better.
Or people that buy or provide boosts.
I have 3 alts now. It’s a complete chore managing more than one character tbh

Easy, PvP gear needs a low base ilvl in PvE, and high boosted ilvl in PvP. There you go. Problem solved. PvE gear is good for PvE, PvP gear convincingly dominates in PvP and wet noodles in PvE until upgraded.
The game needs this so freaking bad. Mythic PvE gear would no longer be able to carry the 220+ pve hero mongoloids in arenas, and it would also reduce the power gap between entry level pvp gear and BiS pvp gear, which would allow skill to play a bigger role in fight outcomes.
Any change that leads to PvP gear being superior to PvE gear in PvP is a change I support.
I honestly feel like honor gear should get boosted to 240ilvl in PvP, conquest to 260. Then the PvE heroes can try to come on in and try to carry with their 220s and get dunked on all day by people in 158ilvl honor gear that gets boosted to 232 in PvP.
PvP gear should also get PvP set bonuses back, granting resilience, additional PvP power, PvP gloves should also grant unique PvP only modifers for each class. Sounds like a dream come true.
I also thing another solid idea is for all PvE trinkets to be greyed in instanced PvP. There is a real opportunity here to evict PvE gear from PvP, and we can not afford to miss out on what could be the best thing to happen to wow PvP in a long time.
I am legitimately fantasizing about dunking on mythic raiders while wearing blue ilvl158 honor gear.

Double edged sword.
On one hand you’ll save a ton of money on booze, as you could get str8 cracked as you wanna for a fraction of what it used to cost. On the other hand, that half liver will take double the beating.
Better to give away a teste. Could still probably crank out some live swimmers with just one, but if not oh well… The world’s already overpopulated as it is.
I think folks are placing a lot of faith in a one-line synopsis of an interview. Just hope folks aren’t let down…again.

That may be the case. All they have to do now is find a way to fix the group finder or implement solo Q for players can actually do arena
Don’t you choose your team though in rated content and raids? Your example was horrible lol.

Well obviously he’s not as confident as he wants everyone to think. LOL.
I understand it though. Big boy rated vs casual random non rated world/bger.
The thought of losing to that is mind triggering I suppose
