With RUIN and Mi10 raid groups, battle for naz has become pretty much unplayable…I spent 10m casting about 5 spells, and then I spent 5 minutes trying to mount, lagged out, until eventually they kicked everyone off the shard(disconnected us) and ended the battle of naz (no rewards, no completion debuff). This happened simultaneously on at least 2 different shards as someone else I was talking to was doing the battle on a different one and it happened to him also. The server lag has always been an issue with the mass raids but straight up cancelling the battle and mass disconnecting people is a ridiculous waste of time.
Something really needs to be done to address the lag or the amount of people allowed on a shard at a time. We actually are not able to complete the world events because the shards disconnect us and end the battle with no winners due to overpopulation. There should be a cap on the # of alliance and horde able to zone in, kind of like the way GW does it, what good does getting into a shard do if we can’t actually play?
holy HELL the LAG was insane it was IMPRESSIVE to see SO MANY horde on one shard AGAINST ruin raids the server crashed forcing the BATTLE to end.
I have NEVER seen over 150 horde on one single battle, i have SEEN alliance bring THIS many but never EVER horde in battle of nazjatar. I am GLAD to see HORDE are finally making attempts to FIGHT back and NOT getting bullied by Alliance RAIDS.
SERVER crashed, 3 Allied raids, 3 MI10 raids, BOTH were bringing a 4th in IT was an EPIC BATTLE.
I will HAPPILY take server CRASHES than the alliance to win without ANY Resistance. Horde Pride MATTERS…
This horde group Mi10 is so brand new and its AMAZING to see the numbers they can GET over 150 horde!!! ZOMG jeevus GREEVUS.
the FACT a 15 days old Mi10 group can match ruin numbers in BATTLE that are 15 years old is SCARY, the group has POTENTIAL.
This is what wpvp is supposed to be about. Blizzard needs to upgrade the squirrels so the server doesn’t lag so much with you have 3 to 4 raids, plus followers for a battle. Try different nuts or something.
It was pathetic … this is not how a video game is supposed to work.
I was in Naz , I could read the messages about the BFN on general chat but I could not see anyone as I somehow got transported to a shard with no raids in there . Only thing I had was massive lag. Finally hearthed out and went to Mecha
It’s easy to lay blame on bad players who group together in massive zergs to outnumber their opponents over 10 to 1 because they can’t win 1v1s. RUIN are not the first nor will be the last.
This kind of behaviour has existed for decades in other MMOs and other genres of games. It’s on the devs to not be incompetent and lazy and implement mechanics and policies to counteract these people from being able to play so unfairly.
They could start banning these people for zone disruption, or stop them from sharding in past a certain point.
However BFA is an absolute turd of an expansion and is now in maintenance mode. They just want to forget about it and put all their resources into Shadowlands. The chances of them actually fixing battle for naz is close to nil.
LAG was Pathetic, WHAT matters is THE HORDE are trying to FINALLY FIGHT BACK after MONTHS of no efforts, NOT even trying. Its ABOUT time
I hate LAG, but its NOT RIGHT for Alliance to just STEAMROLL horde players, HAVE to fight back.
I have SEEN mi10 in premade group finder in the last 2 weeks, i have been in 3 of THEIR groups yesterday was a lagfest STILL an epic battle that ended in a server CRASH.
Was satisfying to SEE over 150 horde for a battle united to FIGHT.
In a VIDEO game when ONE faction stops FIGHTING while the OTHER faction just brings 4 raids in a BATTLE with no one willing to fight it out, NOT FUN.
It was LAGFEST yesterday, SERVER crashed, NOT fun, but the THRILL that horde are FIGHTING back was FUN, seeing over 150 horde in one BATTLE for the FIRST TIME was GLORIOUS.
If only there were other posts in the forums about this…no, no, let’s start a new thread about the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over…
glad i could join and make these alli idiots cry. must have been a calling from the heavens that me and my bro just happened to randomly look for a raid for once in naz and saw this new horde group. we wrecked em boys. lets keep it up.
To Rdord: Ruin is essentially a pug. They don’t interview people before allowing them to join the community. They advertise in LFG as a custom premade before every Nazjatar event. They don’t bill themselves as an elite collective of highly skilled PvPers. They gather people for events, provide leadership during those events, and it works. There is no reason to throw shade on them.
The real issue, as I think you realize, is that Blizzard has introduced options into the game without provisioning the necessary technical design and resources to support them.
i do not CARE if they are a pug they use trade chat to fill their raids XD they say they bring 12 raid groups, CAN they bring 12 raid groups outside nazjatar?
Answer is NO
I have joined these Mi10 raid groups 3 times this week they on purpose go on ruin shards with multiple raids. YOU KNOW WHAT happens?
Ruin STRUGGLES to handle 3 to 4 raid groups against THEM, server crashes saves THEM every time from WHAT ive experienced.
Its NOT hard to do WHAT ruin DOES we already have SEEN this now only PROBLEM is horde has no LEADERSHIP people are cowards, right NOW mi10 has been doing THAT now everything seems to be NOT so impossible now.
I am NOT throwing shades on THEM, i throw shades on HORDE that do NOTHING until recently because of these mi10 raids which is a BIG relief.
I remember Ion saying lag is a legit problem that is their priority. Thats was in a qna about a year ago. Also said that he will try and get 1 of the engineers to do a dev watercooler blue post on it if possible. Hasnt happened yet. I wuld like to hear something about the lag affecting the game and what their plans are. Its a legit problem. Quite possibly out of their hands in some cases. I havent experienced super bad lag for a long time but ppl are reporting problems regularly on the forum, esp with BfN.
I just got out of a BFN…we met a Ruin group at the chest just when the battle was starting . I landed , everything froze , I spammed the Chain Lightening button like mad . After 5 minutes the chest turned red and I was credited 48 kills .
