Wait…did alliance players actually faction change to horde for Jaina? Did nobody tell them?

Look, it’s another Alliance loser whining again about mechanics he’ll never have to deal with!

No, just more over blown over the top grand fallacious claims of bias as usual.

It is more that Blizzard has repeatedly had horde racials negate boss mechanics yet took their time changing it while alliance racials often get nerfed into the ground or mechanics get changed during beta.

They also had a hugely beneficial passive (Beastslaying) for ToT on Troll, which lead to many Horde guilds swapping their characters to Trolls, as many bosses were considered Beasts and thus benefited greatly from it - on top of already having the OP pre-nerf Berserking.

My sick sense of humor finds it hysterical that an entire guild paid to xfer to Alliance, and then blizzard changes it.

Guilds transfer a lot for incentives. The funny thing is, they did this going to Alliance - and then Blizzard nerfed a racial before the content was even out. I imagine they thought it was a safe bet as it was unprecedented for Blizzard to nerf it this quickly.
Sadly, this is the only Alliance racial benefit I can think of that affected a significant raid mechanic. Maybe the raid-wide stun in BoT? Or did that never work?

It’s not sick. It is hilarious.

I guess the news of the xfer and all the posting about the racial brought into the nerf.
A mass purge for ONE fight and voodoo shuffle for ONE fight and voodoo only gave ever so slightly increase. Nathria has bleed effects on almost every fight, you are negating several mechanics. Maybe if you didn’t have a mental capacity of a potato you would see this.

If the dwarves were Horde … The racial wouldn’t be changed …

Berserking going unchecked for an entire expansion where snapshotting was incredibly powerful, and Beast Slaying which was a flat 5% damage increase in a raid where many bosses were beasts.

Maybe if you didn’t have the mental capacity of a grain of sand, you’ll realize that Blizzard gave these same advantages over expansions to Horde and nerfed them very slowly.

While I like strong racials for Alliance, having a racial negate a core aspect of a raid fight is dumb. It was virtually an exploit.

Blizzard really is pretty f up.
People will never understand because they don’t want to.
They like to believe they belong to this super elite better team of players of the horde because they are insecure.

idk man, I play both factions roughly equally, and I’d find it hard to argue that Horde doesnt get favoritism.

You say this as if the Alliance’s story was any better. Nobody cares about WoW’s story. It’s garbage. You just keep up with it to see how much worse it will get.

I’ve personally always thought that in terms of armor, aesthetics, voice acting, models, and cities, Alliance takes the win. But when it comes to actual gameplay (finding groups, PvP, etc), I think it’s easier on Horde.

I prefer Horde for aesthetics, even as a Blood Elf player / fan questing Horde, in their fortress like hubs or what have you I just like much more.
