Bg's while leveling never pop

there’s got to be at least 20 people wanting to do some random bg’s below max lvl. i’ve never waited this long ever in the history of wow waiting for bg’s. what did they do? they changed it somehow.

make all realms que for bg’s or something. this is boring.

Party sync probably killed them.

which bracket?

I find this is never an issue in Wrath Classic, because you can lock XP and stay in a bracket forever. Almost every bracket has an active twink population. 30’s 40’s 50’s 60’s and especially 70’s regularly pop.

Its so stupidly easy to spend an hour or 2 grinding blue dungeon gear in retail that you really arent that worse off than a twink. Basically every player nowadays has access to full heirlooms and they are very powerful items.

In my opinion Blizzard should just do what they did in classic and allow locked XP’ers to queue with everyone else. I remember Blizzard made a statement that roughly says “we understand sometimes you will get stomped by twinks, but its better than not playing at all” . And as i said, with the redonkulous ease of gearing while leveling in retail, anyone who just spends even a little bit of time or gold gearing up, will be approaching a similar power level of a dedicated twink.

All of em. Sometimes i get a few games in a row but then its a 30 minute wait. I swear its on purpose to get us to quit pvp.

If blizz wants to attract more players to the game then make pvp a bigger focus than this.

Currently the game is relying on the die hards. Lets attract some customers. Balanced pvp and get the games poppin. Right now pvp is stale.

Max level isn’t great either. The other night I queued for Korrak and Random Epic BG, both said 11 min wait so I went to gather some herbs/leather while I waited. Eventually I forgot I had queued up and checked, only to find I had been in the queue over an hour. =/

If Blizz wanted to attract more players to the pvp aspect of the game, they would have fixed the lower brackets years ago. It’s a crap shoot of hunters now and everything that’s new is killed in a single shot.

Blizzard ignored it until it went away.

To be fair, i cant think of an expansion where low level bgs didnt feel like everyone vs hunters, including vanilla.

For the first 30 levels in vanilla it felt like hunters, shaman, and druids decided wsg. Then it kinda evened out after 30 with everyone getting more diverse kits.
