BFA Warmode is officially now Garbage

Horde camped alliance before alliance started turning wm on. Horde camped alot of lowbies in redridge and westfall. Now tide has turned.

There has never been a single moment of PvP-flagged play in WoW that did not include this.

I am so with you on this. It’s wrong. They need to get rid of it or give it to Horde next week.

Supposedly, having one piece of 400 Ilvl makes them so OP that no Horde is able to do anything now.

I guess they weren’t that good at PvP.

That’s utterly ridiculous. They’re not mad about it because it affects PvP. They’re mad about it because it’s the first week of a new raid, and you can’t get 400ilvl gear lower than heroic. We start out with one piece on every member of our raid, and they have to start with none. Not to mention the fact that we get a free 385 because we have Darkshore this week, as well. Many are proc’ing a 400 from that, as well. So…Alliance has two shots at 400ilvl gear for every single member of our raid groups in the FIRST week of a new progression tier.

It’s wrong. That’s why they’re mad. It has nothing to do with PvP, and insinuating that Horde players aren’t as skilled as the Alliance in PvP is just…well, it’s funny is what it is.

yeah, i’ve said this before in a different post. most of the alliance that are turning wm on for the rewards are the same non-pvping idiots that cried when any horde attacked them on a pvp server or initial period when everyone had it on to level to max. they’re basically free kills until they actually manage to find other decent pvpers and start camping areas.

This is just the new racial advantage for cash tactic.

I only got a cloak if that makes you feel better. I would have much preferred a weapon.

Welcome to what the Alliance experience was like for months before the incentives were added. I would show up at a shared quest area and be outnumbered 5+ to 1 and generally once some “brave” Horde stepped forward to attack the entire pack would pounce.

Oh how times have changed…

there is a reason - it’s the bait to get more alliance to actually participate in a feature that initially horde overwhelmed and grieved so many players that a vast majority of the faction won’t even consider turning on.
all you horde that’s hear crying about the rewards think that every alliance now has wm on just to get this reward; you’re wrong. alliance are mostly pve oriented; a very high percentage won’t even pvp regardless the reward. this is why you cried no one was around to gank and roamed freely with your 10% buff for months…

this is basically what it all boils down to. the horde that are here complaining are just jealous they’re not on the losing end of years long war in battle. years of them grieving players made what wm is today- not some crap that’s been taking place the past 3-4 months.

If it’s that bad just swap to Alliance.

That’s what you told us to do but to Horde when we complained.

this isn’t just a pvp game. most players are actually pve oriented. only a small percentage actively pvp a majority of the time.

Why are some of you surprised by this, this is exactly the type of behavior that Blizzard is famous for.

The make it so people are doing something, even if they hate it, to give them stats to justify their next action.

Watch, next expansion there will be Warmode as part of the story, so all players have to engage in it, and as justification for it they will say ‘since so many people used it in BfA we figured we’d give everybody the chance to see it’.

you still got increased rep and gold from it. don’t act like nothing was gained from being uncontested… the only thing you didn’t get extra were the kills and “honor” for it.

The theory is: Blizz systems flag the majority faction at some point (probably as close to Tuesday reset as possible) and whatever faction has more WM enabled 120s at that time, the system changes the bonus to the minority.

If true, Alliance will never lose the bonus.

Nope, its a whole new game!
We r competing which faction got less players on WM!!
Winner get 400 gear.

exactly why we don’t see it your way. on the US servers, horde rule. i do agree each region should be evaluated, not every single server combined.

I would have thought the system was set up that during the week, the system would recognize how many people had wm on, for any length of time and add it to the overall total.

That way, the whole turning it on for 15 minutes then turning it back off would still cause the overall number to to balance out.

The fact that Alliance still has 30% either means, they are doing it this way or the Alliance wm population is really really that bad.

this actually made me laugh out loud while reading it. just last night, i was trying to complete invasion quests with my add on saying there were up to 26 at a time. stormsong had 59 for hours one day that i can remember… only my lock and rogue were able to manage the invasion completion that day.
