Blitz: Conquest Gains Too Low?

Anyone feel like conquest gains are a bit low in Blitz? RBGs give so much more.

I do agree it’s a bit low if they increased it from 58 to 80 I would be perfectly happy with that.

I get more Conquest from WPvP than Blitz. It should be triple. Once I realized I was getting harldy any Conquest I stopped Queing. Then just did the Epic weekly, daily BG etc because it’s more conquest.

  • 30 conquest for a loss and 58 for a win is a huuuuuge yikes. Should be 200 for a win.

I mean don’t get me wrong at least there are a lot of other ways to get conquest capped which is nice. I just don’t think I should get more conquest for looting a WPvP chest than a Rated win lol.

200 is way too high they will never buff it that much. The max it should give is a 100 honestly.

Ok I mean RBGs in Cata Classic give 150 for a loss. Maybe I’m just not used to these little amounts. When you can get 3-4 wins and be capped in Cata.

I hear ya, I mean if everyone was in favor of it, they could buff everything just a bit then bg blitz would stay towards the bottom but not feel like as much of a chore.

Yeah, 58 is way too low, I won’t be healing BGBs unless I’m conquest capped.

At 58 per win, you would need to win 28 to cap for the week, and that’s just winning. Assuming you don’t win 100%, you’re looking at 40+ games to cap. Just not worth it when you need to cap.

Played from 7pm-9:30 pm got about 700rating and 450 conquest. Barely playing 2.5hours after work should have me done for the week in 5 days with 12.5 hours played for the week while losing less than half of the games. If I magically won the rest needed it would be about 5 hours played to go to cap conquest. I’d imagine if someone didnt have work today and played well they could be capped already. Would I like to cap conquest faster? Yup. Is it too slow now? Not really.

It does seem a tad slow to me. Played ~3 (maybe 3.5) hours of rated BGB I’d estimate tonight, went 8-3 and did both PVP quests, and only have 631 conquest. So assuming you don’t get much conquest for losses, it’s probably around 650 conquest per 4.5-5 hours at a 50/50 win rate.

This is not that bad if you only play one character, but as WW is billed to be an alt-friendly expansion, I would have expected it to be faster to gear up multiple characters for PVP for a casual+ player.

yeah considering they took the PVP tier out of the vault, they promised larger conquest gains and so far it seems pretty garbage

The increases are modest, but tangible. Remember that you’re not really meant to keep queuing for the same content over and over. They want you to queue for all the modes at least once.

Honestly, this is a little low, and - I suspect - it is partly to blame for the longer-than-expected queue times. A lot of people, so I’ve heard, are just doing the daily win and moving on to something else. 58 Conquest/win (if you win) after the daily win… kind of feels like you’re wasting a lot of time in queue for a chance at a piddly reward.

How does it make sense to get 88-93 conquest for one arena match win, but only 58 for a BGB win?

Except that on the rated level, you do queue the same content over and over again. Giving up a choice of 3 free conquest pieces a week for an extra 5-10 conquest per win is a bad deal. Especially considering that it was an opportunity to gain secondary stats. I can join rated BGs, sit at spawn for a quick loss, and gain conquest faster than winning solo BG blitz.

SRBG’s should be 250 for the first win, and 100 for each subsequent win. Losses should be 50, close loss should be 75.

I think the biggest problem people are noticing is the conquest cap increase. 1600 conquest is like double the cap we had last expansion it’s a good amount of conquest to obtain.
