They need to add a new 40 person BG in this expansion and 3-4 in the next one

Yes please more epic BGs especially if you do one or two solo queue full brawl-style epic BGs, I loved that game mode so much in the past and want to love it again.

And if they have to lose a raid tier - so be it.

I love Epic BGs too, even if they add a new 40 man, some people will try to cheese it and it will get stale real fast.

Could they make tol barad a thing again? i’d be down with that sickness.

They don’t even have to create a new Epic BG from scratch, just bring back Tol Barad as an Epic BG.
And make old AV permanent (as a separate queue) for those who love endless matches.

Southshore vs Tarren Mill, just copy-paste it into the rotation :ok_hand:

It’s perfect for a 40-man map, nice and simple deathmatch

Southshore vs Tarren Mill is completely maintenance-free too… no worrying about “map balance”, “bugs”, “exploits”, “vehicles”, or “NPCs”… just pure PvP on an open field

Excuse me over here I’m just salivating at the idea of perma-SvTM

Very :ok_hand: and also quite :+1: :+1:

The perfect EBG, 100% pvp, balanced, fun

During the weeks that it’s up, it’s pretty much the only BG I play - so much fun

Never gets old either, the “evergreen” factor is pretty much built into it

Fellyn, you were in my Isle of conquest match once and you kept saying to the team “send 4 to hangar”

you were at hangar by yourself persevering the whole time and I tried to jump in a few times but we just kept getting rolled I couldn’t stop laughing lol

Good times

Why would I take the hanger by myself :open_mouth:

Tol Barad is still there. Fans still duke it out for the dailies, and raid access.

Honestly, te PvE players need to suck it up. They’ve been getting so much damn preferential treatment.

This is the way. It get some of the mid mashers out of the other bg’s that actually have some form of strategy to them.

For the “its pvp!” mashers this could be their home. its literally kill to win. Its deepest strat is to send rogues and druids to kill the easy npc’s. They are points too.

Countered by…having people take the extra seconds on the run from gy to see if the sneaky types are killing npc’s. Its about as simple as it gets for them here.

I want the mid mashers to ahve a home. to get them out of EOTS. where they have failed to grasp take and hold 3 flags from the start wins.

They have also have fialed to grasp winning flag dog pile is really cool. Until one asks the question…where are you taking the flag with no towers. Answer is no where ofc.

why loose a raid tier? just Grab the raid location and poof. you got a new battle ground. they prob have some symmetrical designs that would work fine for balance. just add in an objective. like. take orb to a door, to open it… we fight over the orb. it could be like the Sethrak dungeon orb where you have to either RP walk it or throw it to another player.

surely that will be fine as a quick option.

PVE’ers seem to think all efforts in wow go to raid.

Even graphics artists making a mount sacrifices that.

Not really…most of the raid dev time is the AI in the place. that dude who made the texture for the wall in the raid was done looooong ago. Same for level designers. Maybe they come back in when bosses glitch into a column or some other collision mesh issue.

Its the devs 3 weeks later going why is this boss bugging the hell out AI wise. The artist was done weeks ago and on the mount lol.

BG has no npc AI…or the basic ones are, well basic. See the av elites.

Is my tower alive. I stay here.

Was I sheeped (or other long lasting CC) and tower burned and I am still alive. I guess I go back to boss room. Where the zerg rush came from.

CC tower eliltes
burn towers
kill van/drek before they show up
profit.

I’m for it, but I really wish they gave the option to have a blocklist for random bgs. There are some that I absolutely hate, and don’t want to play.

could just add the one from cata, but rework it a bit.
