THREAT CAPPED, WD, and Cars with flame, Press W, and SQUAWK (a mix of horde and alliance guilds) wiped anyone not in their group attempting an Azuregos kill. Is this allowed? I thought colluding with opposite faction was not allowed?
This sets a precedence for the game that pretty much blocks anyone from getting a world boss kill. It kills the heart of pvp, and it makes people less likely to log on and even try for this event.
I’m not 100% sure how they are colluding, but I’ve been told they grouped up on Nightslayer server discord and made a separate world boss discord independent of faction.

Can confirm. Video has been uploaded to youtube and the Nightslayer server discord.

They wiped the entire horde team out here, but left Threatcapped and Squawk alone

Colluding is a strange way to type strategizing

https : //imgur .com/a/old-tos-kF930k8 this is the old TOS, the wording is a little different now, but the concept is still there. Something like “Takes away from the spirit of the game”. You know, the whole horde vs alliance thing…

I personally rather community decide where the true battle lines are.
But blizzard loves to take depth out of the game and reduce community expression, so sure daddy blizzard can smite the big bad raiders that colluded just like they did to the gdkp players.

This game is meant to be immersive. Classic wow is all about Horde vs Alliance, we are mortal enemies of each other. Later expansions there are pacts made between the two factions, which is why they took out the communication bit in their TOS and changed it to “spirit of the game”.

collusion
col·lu·sion kə-ˈlü-zhən
Synonyms of collusion

acting in collusion with the enemy
strategize

Both seem applicable here but which shoe fits better? Let the people decide. Wish we had polls 
Also, I don’t think blizz will do much nor can they do much… probably

Unless you’re in a top guild you weren’t going to kill those World Bosses anyway.
I just forget they exist most of the time.

Not really, if you can get 40-80 people together when the boss is spawning then you have a shot.
I’ve killed world bosses more that 20x on pvp servers with multiple guilds trying at it.
Also, for the fresh servers they changed the spawn rules of world bosses, they now spawn every 24 hours.

Things that also happened in vanilla.
Really? Wow, I didn’t know this.
Maybe I have a shot then lol.
Being real, communication between factions has always been around and always will be. The problem is when its done at the level it was done today where entire 40 man raid groups (multiple) work together to prevent any other guild from even having a shot at a world boss.
This would be different if it was 120 alliance showing up and preventing a 40 man horde raid guild from getting a kill. That’s within the spirit of the game. No, instead you have 2 horde guilds and 3 alliance guilds standing around and not fighting while they are picking off entire guilds or individual players not in the collusion cohort.

Im just pointing out your collusion between the two factions didn’t exist till later expansions arguement is wrong. That was the entire AQ event in lore. As for is it a problem? I mean pvp happened on a pvp server they organised and won, nothing is preventing everyone else to organise against them? I would say that’s perfectly aligned with the spirit of the game.

its strange how they are pushing it further than even the 2019 players did, in 2019 classic i played on 3 servers (gehennas eu / kromcrush us and then bene us) and all 3 of these servers had a war going on between the factions for world boss control, now its like you reserve a spot for 7:30 at the world boss table and get escorted there by the maitre d’orc
the experience is the gear treadmill i guess

Reminds me of the Ranker discord. “You will be in bracket one starting 4 months from now” or “You are a natural Bracket 1, this other person is a bought bracket 1”
Will you sign my server first Puissant Cape that we got when Azzy first spawned.
also, real question. Are you the same dude who was asking redditors if they had ever used nair on their butts?

What? World Bosses being controlled by a select few guilds coordinating over the internets? No way. That never happens.
This is a simple fix. Entire server kill try to help wipe them all when doing WB. But no one really cares.
