Alliance permanent 30% bonus for Warmode

I’m afraid we’ll still see the devs bumbling around with yet even more wilted carrots on a stick well into the next expansion.

I try and all I think of is " ffa world pvp died for this?"

I’m totally fine with Alliance getting a 30% WM buff if they’re underpopulated with WM on.

But it absolutely makes NO SENSE that they get the same buff on OCE servers, where they are the dominant faction

Really? I was reading that same thing on chines web sight. How alliance are getting g it. You think numbers bad here. oh boy it really bad. The alliance are 80 to horde 20 and shrinking fast. The servers all alliance dominance .I honest thought I was miss reading the post.

Just answering how a tree can catch fire. Now slowly backs out

I barely even see horde doing wq’s anymore. It’s all just alliance deathsquads with 2 healers just steam rolling everything. Same story on both the continents. Stop trying to get into social engineering blizzard and focus on making the game less atrocious

Weird. Majority of horde players i’ve seen in warmode are always in a small group. I tend to see more alliance solo playing than horde.

It is region based. OCE are still part of the NA region, even if the servers are localized. (same with LA servers).

Also I see way more horde than alliance and I’m from OCE as well. Who knows, maybe blizzard loves torturing me by putting me on the horde dominate shards.

You first have to have a dev team that is brave enough to do for the Alliance what they did for the horde, but they don’t understand why the 30% bonus isn’t working, because they are safe and warm in their little horde bubbles.
They’re having fun, so it must just be alliance players, they think.
They don’t have a clue.

You can blame all the “pro” players all changing to horde because horde have better racials for pve and pvp atm. Even after the nerfs to some of them. So in a sense, that is true favoritism right there.

Besides, the 30% bonus is given to the least represented faction at the start of the week. Just so happens that the alliance is the least represented (imagine my shock!). Same goes for the enlistment bonus. That goes to the least represented faction for instanced random battlegrounds. Horde does more pvp than alliance, that is a fact. These band-aid fixes are meant to bring in more players into pvp to balance out the numbers. If both factions are around 50/50, no-one gets the bonus. And the bonus decays as the % of players gets closer to 50/50.

Saying that only the alliance gets the buff is factually incorrect and misleading.

Except the legion band aid of 50% more has been there since…LEGION! and horde has NEVER gotten it. It’s literally proof that giving one side an insanely unfair advantage does nothing but make everyone mad.

They even added a merc mode where horde players could play for alliance and that STILL didn’t fix it. Alliance had the buff SINCE legion with no signs of stopping.

Next thing you’re gonna say is alliance shouldn’t have to raid at all anymore and automatically start the expansion with titanforged raiding gear…

Another day, another thread proving War Mode and wPvP are unrevivable dead horses.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again.

I’m ticked off that Blizzard thought that the best way to tackle this problem of “No Meaningful Alliance Victories” (though Undercity wasn’t a win? Darkshore? Arathi?) was to kill off Rastakhan. One of the most interesting characters in the game.

(They pretty much admitted this in a Q&A at Blizzcon)

What makes you think I would ever say that? Sounds like YOU want that to happen just so you can further justify your butthurt.

Again, more horde players tend to do pvp since those that enjoy pvp are on the horde side due to horde having better racials than alliance for both pvp and pve.

Horde pvp population is far larger than the alliances. Again, you are raging about something that isn’t an issue if more people on alliance do pvp, or less people on horde do pvp. It is about population balance, not saying X faction gets Y because reasons.

Next you will complain that tanks and healers get the call to arms bags way more than dps. Same thing in a pve setting.

I’ve gotten a lot of HK’s with all the soft Alliance players it’s brought out. Keep it up!

Undercity was not a win. Sylvanas was always going to blight bomb the city. That was her plan. In the end, both sides lost. For the alliance, it is what we call a pyrrhic victory. (aka, the losses to achieve a win has a greater impact than the victory).

I only have warmode on for an alt for the 30% xp buff plus my 10% xp pot plus my boA gear to make lvling go a bit faster but once alliance loses that 30% xp buff ill be turning off warmode as ill have no other reason to have it on a all:) like I said I only have it on for the XP buff while its up :slight_smile:

And suddenly! The horde lost it’s memories about all the unfair world pvp they did in raid vs 1 or 2 alliance questing in drustvar for many months, and now they say: agg i’m a lonely horde vs too much alliance, when all they mean is: i want that warmode buff without being alliance cause i’m savage, i’m furious, i’m shrek…

I like the way this guy thinks.

My dark iron isn’t 120 yet. So keep it coming.
