Alterac Valley Adjustments Incoming

The incentive is to PVP on PVP realms.

I’d be happier if they move the Horde cave back to the east of the base. It worked fine during TBC and Wrath. At least we don’t get sharked just past Balinda then.

figures a horde player would consider camping fps with 10 ppl “pvp”

You want ANOTHER one? The next time they just may swing the banhammer at the premade exploiters instead of making a veiled threat.

figures an alliance player would insinuate that only horde camp fps.

most servers are horde dominated. I have never seen a grp of ally on my server sitting at a FP and we are fairly even split.

Riiiiiiight… :roll_eyes:

why the hell would anyone on ally camp a FP? It’s crap honor and we get instant queues. Use your brain, it’s going to be the same next week. This only benefits horde having 10% decay in world.

It is pvp though. “Player vs Player” Not “Fair player Vs Player”

Because it is pvp on a pvp server. If you are going to whine about such a thing, when enjoying an even faction split, why should anyone shed a tear for you?

im not asking for anyone to shed a tear for me are you thick? Just because it’s a fairly even split doesn’t mean ally leave main cities to pvp…we get instant queues. Why is this difficult for you to understand? All I’m saying is keep decay at 25% in world, this only benefits the dominant faction on any server. And even if horde is not the dominant faction in benefits them more since they have longer queues and are already camping fps.

Chinese client already found a way past no AV # the premades will not stop. GG blizzard for another failed attempt at fixing nothing only making things worse.

For all you folks who think that blizzard should do nothing, I challenge you. Roll an alliance on a horde dominated PVP server, Get it to 60, Then tell me blizzard should do nothing to fix the server imbalance, BTW no cheesing it you must level in the world not a dungeon. I challenge anyone to do this. I guarantee you will hate the experience and you will think blizzard needs to implement changes

Nowhere did I ever suggest that blizzard should do nothing about imbalance. In fact I had lobbied for faction ratio queues LONG before P2 even began.

So now we get camped 10x not 5x .

Nice I guess with every change you make for the “streamer crowd”
you piss on the normal player. You wont be happy until you push everyone out.

Same team must be on both version of the crapshow .

Why I didn’t roll on a PvP server in a nutshell.

from the source you were talking about stems from the faction imbalance. Currently all 50+ FP’s are camped by honor starved horde due to long queues. If you wish for server balance I am with you on it and I think it would alleviate most of the current problems we are having as far as PVP goes.

I did that, except I rolled a Horde on a Alliance dominated server. I go spit on, tee bagged, laughed at, ganked by people well above my level and in squads. I did that from Vanilla through Cataclysm and then decided when MoP was coming out to leave. Did I hate it yes, but you know I got talked into playing on a PvP server and that included my responsibility to do what I can to survive and keep those I am grouped with alive. I played from release until December of 2011 and you guys are crying only after a few months. You chose the server deal with it, I did for far longer and I am and am again playing on a PvE server before that little stent. Hell try Albion if your really a PvPer, that is a full loot system, you die you lose all your gear if killed in a Red or Black Zone.

I believe we’re all on board with this decision. Currently, Horde have a hard time even getting into the same AV even with a single friend.

This is being done to help both factions.

Horde pugs will no longer be facing matches against elite 35+ premade groups as frequently.

Alliance solo queuers will benefit as they’ll run a smaller chance of getting into an AV with a failed premade. Solo PVPers will also find it slightly easier to rank up as premade groups won’t be winning matches in 6 minutes as frequently slowing down the honor farm.

If a match starts with as few as 20 players on a team in the middle of the day, it’s usually because a premade group didn’t get as many players into the same match as they wanted so they leave the queue and try again. Unfortunately, this leaves solo queuers in a bad spot.

This change will affect the effectiveness of botting through AVs to rank up. Active battleground participants will gain more honor through kills helping them rank higher than botters getting honor exclusively through objectives.

An unfortunate side effect will be the promotion of corpse camping outside of battlegrounds and make PVEing on a PVP server less enjoyable for players on lopsided servers. The only solution to this would be to allow server transfers or faction changes.

My whole point to this post was to show how unavailable the world is to alliance due to imbalance I like to pvp but I hate the imbalance where no matter where I go no matter what I do I will get zerged down and destroyed just because there are too many horde. I may even get a small victory here and there however horde get the slightest whiff of alliance being around and you get zerged down and camped for honor.
