Alliance +50% Honor? WT!@#$

True. But add in the fact that Ally got through story and PvE faster, hit lvl 60 faster bc WM on bonus too, and then they got geared up more than 1.5x faster, so your math don’t work either.

Besides the point, even if your math did add up, they still got 1.5x honor to buy higher level gear.

How does +50% not mean 1.5x faster in your world? Do you do, “alternative math”?

You do understand that is exactly what they did to promote the Horde back in the day?

Sure, idc, never signed up as merc before anyway. I’d argue that has nothing to do with and is not at all comparable to WM bonus and +50% HONOR

Deal with that or multiple hour long queues, can’t have both.

the 50% from victory doesn’t add up to a lot when you only win 15% of the time. if anything, the alliance needs more than 50%. maybe more along the lines of 200%.

Correct me if I’m mistaken, but don’t the Conquest Upgrades also require rating thresholds?

Conquest is the main PvP gear that still is locked behind performance, not addition points.

Because YOU can’t win … I win just fine.

No, and don’t care. This ain’t “back in the day”. Back in the day, they used to use x-rays to check if your shoe fit. They shouldn’t have done it then and they shouldn’t be doing it now. The fact it was done back then, isn’t an argument for why it should be done today

Tell you what, let’s get rid of the bonus honor and mercenary mode too and let’s see how you like hour long PvP queues. How does that sound?

Yeah, enjoy your heal nerfs

Then switch factions, that’s the point of those bonuses- too many people went Horde for advantages, and they need to give Alliance some bonuses to try to even it out.

Yet for all your whining about how much more Alliance gets, Horde still realize their own advantages are far too massive. If anything, it proves Blizz needs to give even greater bonuses in order to start evening out the factions a little.

Yeah, try to get your ratings up when the opposite faction has you outgeared thanks to a +50% honor bonus Blizz gave them

If the Honor boost Alliance is getting atm makes you want to roll Alliance, good. Because that’s the reason Alliance is getting it in the first place: they are outnumbered by Horde in PvP. The boost is an incentive to get them to play and try to even out the numbers. By swapping, you help to remove the need for the boost in the first place (as it’ll go away once numbers on each side become more equal).

I play Elemental not Resto … one is DPS, other healer . No wonder you lose. :man_facepalming:t4::man_facepalming:t4:

You realize that that is in the game because most of all WoW players are Horde, right?

There are very few incentives to play Alliance, but that is one of them and it’s fine.

Faction is irrelevant to Rated PvP. You can (and will) queue into other Horde teams.

We actually got 450% honor the last few days…

Still think Alliance is lame and boring. Even if I did want to switch to play one character competitively, Blizz wants me to cough up $35. Hell no

It won’t matter once everyone already has the honour gear. I don’t care if you think the faction is lame, either. You’re complaining about the underdog faction getting incentives to try and grow their population.

Stop whining and learn to play.
