AV - Leveling in Harpy Cave and Wolves

Would like a clear answer on this if blizzard didnt want people leveling in av why give xp and why put quests in the cave ?

Why give 1500-1800 rested xp per mob if they didnt want people doing this ?

Non participation should be for players who literally afk and dont do anything except move or jump

Not players who are actively playing the game the way it was designed to then be hit with 30 day bans

This needs to stop and either remove the xp from the mobs or quest in cave or confirm its okay to do so no grey areas no word games

A clear yes or no to the above

There is no logic formula behind it.

They dont have the man power
they dont want to have the man power

they live on automation

If people are racing to the end and fighting the last boss and you are sitting in a cave… they are click reporting you.

Thats how their system work

x reports come in they wave banned.

There are no rules until the automated system is removed. They can’t enforce rules because they don’t have enough support employees anymore.

According to the big thread on bans, most of the 30 days bans have been or are being removed. You may not get an email telling you this - and can only check by trying to logon.

I’m not banned however would like to be able to level my characters in AV without the fear of receiving a 30 day ban for playing the game as intended with the risk of not being unbanned if there systems fail

Anything involving quests and objectives in AV should be fair game. I’m leveling my DK in AV and haven’t had any issues with being reported despite being sub 70.

You shouldn’t be in the harpy caves if you don’t have the quest objective to be in there, participate in the battleground by defending/capping towers and killing the opposite leader. You’ll get a No answer from blizz if they actually reply.

So if i keep the cave quest and level from 60 to 70 then complete it then we all good right ?

Your logic is flawed if they didnt want people there dont put quests there and dont give good xp simple fix remove the xp no reason to be there other than quest its that easy

Funnily enough the wolves give good xp like the harpies but i think the rams give bad xp havent tested

Are you looking for loop holes or just trolling?

You wouldn’t get reported if you were participating in the battelground. Doing a quest all by yourself in a cave, while ignoring the objective that 39 of your team mates are on is not participating in the battleground. Your logic is flawed in stating that the harpy quest exists, therefore it should be acceptable to ignore the purpose of the battleground, and in doing so, drag your team down. It’s literally the definition of griefing your own team, which is against TOS.

There are quests for bunkers, graveyards, as well as winning the match. You receive XP for those too, while also helping your team in the battleground. That is clearly what you should be doing but you’re being intentionally obtuse.

To add to this, you’re the exact player that people want to keep out of the battelgrounds in order to ensure a fair competitive match.

You can do your harpy quest and do the BG, if you’re constantly in the harpy cave and get reported you can get banned. Idk, you asked for an answer and people are giving you one.

Why do mobs give xp if there not meant to be used to level ?

Could say the same about your posts. Next.

Why ask a question when you intend to ignore the answers?

Because the exp is a small bonus on the chance you pull a harpy into the cross-fire. It is obviously not meant to be a primary source for leveling or they would be the primary objective of the battleground

I don’t think 1700 xp is a small bonus and when they die in like 1-2 secs and there’s a cave full of them its actually an incredibly effective way to level combined with the bg xp bonus

Pulling a harpy into the cross-fire of other players results in like 30-40xp given which serves no real purpose

Let’s be real here and not play silly games the mobs give good xp because the design was for players to kill them the bg gives xp because the design was for players to level in them

If you didn’t want players to level with the mobs then remove the xp or reduce it significantly if you didn’t want players leveling in AV then don’t allow them to queue for it until 70

Stop trying to defend non logical decisions by blizzard

The orcs outside Honor Hold give more than that on rested exp

Uh huh…you are genuinely trolling right now

Yeah bro designers add in xp and allow lower levels to queue into the bg then ban them for doing what it was designed and intended to do great design

Then people like you come along white knighting them like there’s no issue that’s why half the player base just got banned from AV all mostly leveling wake up to yourself
