Blizz you gotta separate out XP-Off Twinking

right, gotcha.

It most certainly is all landing within < 1s of eachother.

Did you just not read the second half of that post at all?

Seriously. Come on dude.

It’s not possible to cast Lunar Strike, Wrath, and Starsurge within a second. Even with Incarnation, Heroism, and Crest of Pa’ku proccing Wrath still has around a 0.6s cast time.

For the record I also wouldn’t consider the aimed/arcane shot to be a technical one-shot, but I think we all know what he means and this is just a semantic argument.

Your discussions only end with twinks in a separate queue.

Not all but even if they did, what’s your point? Standing your ground for what you believe in is a bad thing?

It has nothing to do with casting them within a second, it has to do with when they “hit his” character. I did mis-type and edited though. Celestial Alignment > Solar Wrath > Lunar Strike > Starsurge will all land within ~1s of eachother.

Nor would one consider pulling out that damage from being farmed in the gy yet comparing it to a 1v1 situation.

I’m going to give the benefit of the doubt and say you’re arriving late, but separating the queues wasn’t the first solution I was bringing up. I first brought up a solution to offer all players – twinks and otherwise – an option to choose from two different queues. One in which stats and such are “equalized” in some sense and gear is either of no consequence or negligible, and another in which nothing at all is equalized or touched so one can freely build their character and face others as such.

But in the current atmosphere, there’s just really no way to justify the gear disparity between a twink and leveler. So if a solution like that isn’t present, then there should be separation (again) until so. In my opinion. And many seem to agree.

Alignment included? They are not. But if just those actions are enough to utterly delete someone’s health, I’d still say that’s a bit gross.

Ah, my misunderstanding then. You’re right, they all would hit around the same time.

Alignment is just a damage CD, it itself does no damage.

It was a bad thing before when it happened and it would be a bad thing again.

Option to choose from two different queues = separating queues

Not exactly. Before, as a twink, you’d only have the option to queue against twinks. I know, I used to play one. But under a system like this, you could be in two queues.

Not according to levelers and most people on xpoff website. The only people I see claiming it’s bad are the same couple people here.

Queue times are the only legit reason I’ve seen in opposition and I’ve seen twinks claim it was exaggerated a lot. They did go up but they loved the closer community.

And the queue that gear matters in would become void. I would queue in the normalized battleground too simply because the queue will be 5x shorter. Not enough people play this game anymore for anything like that. If you can’t beat them, join them. I’d be more than happy to peel for you and make your bg experience a lot more fun :]

actually with the realm phasing the ques would probably not be that bad, its a much bigger pool to draw from.

Alliance had a few Priest twinks and a MW twink, still put 'em down.

Good point, didn’t think of that
