Anyone who rolls in crap gear is just asking for grief…by both the team you are on and the other team as well.
For those who are geared and trying to get their daily CP with a ‘W’, anyone not being geared is just plain rude.
There are quicker and more efficient ways to get semi-geared in days–if not hours elsewhere (WQ’s, world bosses, Nazj/Mecha to name a few). Trying to get it done in PVP tells everyone that such a player is either lazy and/or just not smart: no one wants that person on their team–and will tell you so. People who do this can expect to get called out in both chat and in /tell.
Consider the logical outcome of not being geared:
-Your healers won’t take you seriously and refuse to heal you, just letting you flop time after time.
-You’ll be fresh meat for the other team, until you decide that you have had enough and just chill in the gy and/or abandon the BG.
Fail to see the upside by not investing some time into getting your toon ready.
That there are. A ton of more efficient ways. This is the PvP way though. Random bgs have always been like this. It is the PvP way to get PvP gear. All other modes are boring. I don’t log into a game to be bored.
Instead of giving the player a hard time you guys need to give blizzard a hard time. Tighten scaling and give us vendors back.
A few hours of being bored? Sounds like I’d rather go play something else. Or you k ow spend an extra few hours playing what I like to get semi geared through the content I enjoy.
The point is random bgs are a pvpers way to gear. If you want Uber competitive games where everyone has gear start a yolo rbg group. Yolos can fill quicker than it takes a newbie to get gear.
