Seems pretty simple to see that what is done in AV is this ^

Right, and I specifically noted that if you read the whole thing for your benefit.
But, you are not someone who can ideally say itâs unfair or cheating because itâs about the opposite faction.
If I got trounced day in and day out Iâd say thatâs unfair and demand that the opponent is cheating.
This is why a players perspective is only taken with a grain of salt rather than the absolute definition some claim it to be.
AV intent is clearly for the towers to be taken down before engaging the boss.
This is clearly an exploit. A very nice one too.
However, unless they fix all the other similar exploits, on both factions, usage of this exploit should not be grounds for banning anyone.
If anything, since the exploit is out there and completely known, AND players can do something about it in a very simple way (just defend FFS), the complaints here are totally unnecessary.
Iâd say the Horde should enjoy their condoned overall unfair advantage everywhere else in the game, Classic and Retail.

Mhmm and as we progress though the content, things will change, when people past BWL and cleared part of AQ⊠people will not bother to kite⊠alliance will just face tank it head on⊠its just how 1.12 is get over it
Imagine knowing that if you roll horde you will have long battleground ques and wont be able to premade AVâŠâŠ but you still do it and still complain about long battleground ques and not being able to premade AV
Youâre taking this only from your point of view because you get instant queues regardless of winning or losing, giving you instant access to gratifying pvp content. Horde on the other hand wait 25+ minutes for a queue to be snubbed out 75% of the time by a pre-made group that exploits the final boss. I wouldnât care if I lost a lot of AV games if they lasted half as long as the queue did.

Also, rolling this or that faction is not an excuse to have such an imbalance of queue times. Players should be able to play the characters they want with reasonable game play expectations.

Correct. Which is why I have been advocating the need for more CM/Dev responses.
You wonât agree or understand my point because you feel itâs an automatic opposition because I play Alliance.
Others wonât agree with you or understand your point because they feel itâs an automatic opposition because you player Horde.
If you want to be heard, we should all be continuing to push the CMâs/Devs to give some feedback on issues.
This is one of them.
I made my own separate post directed at Blizzard, doubt it gets heard and is lost in the shuffle of posts.
I could have sworn Blizzard said recently that the point of the BG was to kill the boss at the end. Everything else is extra. But the game ends when the boss is killed. So thatâs it. Complete the objective as best you can. Most need to take down towers to be able to do it, or defend their towers to delay the other side. But not everyone.

Keep making them and keep persisting. Weâre seeing an uptick in their interaction so hopefully itâll trend to more productive responses.
First of all the ques is something alot of us told and warned people about, and its not like we as player have gotten less META oriented as the years passed, hell we are so meta driven, it was a given that horde get longer quesâŠ
And their still short, most pve people are only in the ques to get exalted then their out, i know alot of players on alliance that curse them self that they dident do it the first week⊠its likely going to be hour(s)
And 1.11(1.12) was allways like this, it was a race from one side to the other, as the gear gets better, its just going to go faster, at AQ, alliance wont bother to kite, theyll just ride right in and face tank it allâŠ
Nice try buddy. (see what I did there?)
Actually no, but I just thought Iâd mention a post I saw not too long ago about the instance from them.
Imagine being in a car race and you just cut through the middle and hit the finish line.

is AV 1.11(1.12) a crappy version, yes it is⊠but thats what we got, and people are going to play it as they like, and blizz aint going to change it, they dident 12 years agoâŠ
What i hope is that they actually add a early variant of AV, the ones that only ran weekends and only a few at a time⊠those were fun, and lasted at time for days
Well the rules for a car race actually state doing X amount of laps to have considered finishing it. AV is kill the boss at the end. It doesnât say you have to cap all towers and GY, and kill all elites along the way or you wonât win.

There are âscripted mechanicsâ that get exploited by the class you play in AV. Not going to argue with someone who doesnât understand that they are breaking gameplay for others.
Not trying to argue. I just wanted to point out that post by them where they stated the point was to kill the boss at the end and that was it. How you do it is up to your raid group.
No
Iâve done the same thing with an eye of Kilrogg. No bubble required
