Blizzard we are not NA we require our own warmode balance

Blizzard, we are not NA stop give the call to arms buff to the Alliance they have more people active in warmode in Oce because of it. People on the Horde have no reason to have warmode because having 30 Alliance kill you over and over just for trying to get one world quest is not worth it. Why do you not understand. you have killed world pvp for OCE no Horde have warmode on and all of the Alliance do. The horde have lost every Battle for nazjatar without geting over 200 points. Blizzard i beg you to just turn off the call for arms buff untill you get around to helping Oce. I like world pvp but i don’t like playing when every time i go to newhome its getting raided by 25+ Alliance.

Note: after realm hoping for a bit i found a server with horde at 1k when alliance won instead of the normal 200>

Definitely needed, but I don’t think they have the technology to do it, the quest has to be active for the entire region or people could CRZ to oceanic realms to grab the quest on Horde.

I turned off Warmode for the first time since expansion just because how often I got stomped into the ground. Even got a group of 4 together and just got pummelled by the 30+ roaming around. It was just ridiculous. Will re-enable when the balance gets sorted out.

Same here. Since the patch ive had it switch ofd and it feels really weird.
But the constant killing. I cant even 1v1 people before more Ally show up.
Im still salty they nerfed the Mana Shield spell. Was my life saver.

I came on here to post about this sane issue. I have won one battle or nasjatar because I was up super late and sharded with all the Americans.

Every other one of the 5 plus that I have been involved in have been horribly one sided with the alliance winning.

I only have anecdotal evidence since I obviously don’t have hard numbers bit it is obvious to me that alliance out number horde greatly with the alliance population of frostmorne out numbering the horde on barthilas while the alliance get a greater reward for having pvp on because they have less players on alliance In America.

That doesn’t help me though since most of the time I don’t play with Americans because they are asleep when I’m playing.

I know that world wide we are only a small percentage of your player base. But we are still paying customers who deserve better than what we are receiving at the moment.

I’ve constantly seen 4-5 alliance assassins on the map and have had to bail on Newhome so many times due to the Alliance overrunning it.

I think the only way I’ll be able to finish that damn damn “Kill 25 enemies” Nazjatar quest is by joining some kind of NA party/raid. I’ve literally gone multiple days now without seeing a single horde in Nazjatar.

I don’t blame horde at all for turning off warmode because it’s a self-perpetuating problem that makes itself worse.

Meanwhile on NA the situation is completely reversed.

Yeah, I tend to only have Warmode on for the incursions and only if I’m in a party with 1-2 other people. Everything else it’s turned off for. There’s usually on average 3 assassins regardless of the map I’m on so the benefit of it does not outweigh the time lost being dropped by 5-7 players constantly. Also somehow alliance have managed to get the Overwhelming Odds quest weekly and the full 20% buff.

I think we need to keep making noise about this until at the least they change the overwhelming odds quest.

Easy to ignore or not be aware of the problem if we are quiet.

I do agree with this, it’s a shame the Alliance get rewarded for outnumbering us on the Oceanic realms just because on NA realms they are outnumbered.

Sadly we are linked to NA so the system they made we are just a byproduct in, over all the system is working fine it just screws Oceanic realm players.

Hopefully one day they change the system to look after us as well as I love warmode but till then I guess it’s time for me to retire from warmode.

WHY THE Quckers DO THE ALLY OCE PPL GET THE WARMODE BUFF WHEN THEY ARE MORE THEN 80% OF THE OCE PLAYER BASE !!! WHY ARE WE COUNTED AS NA ? WTF DOESNT AUS EXIST ?

Yes blues read the Oceanic forums.

The problem is the system was built to go off the realm pool of all of The Americas, not off individual realms/battlegroups. Oceania is part of The Americas region and hence we are part of that system.

I agree it’s stupid that the system doesn’t go off realms or at least battlegroups but that’s how the devs made it for some reason, all we can do is hope they change it eventually.

I agree 100% that oceanic should be separate from NA servers when it comes to balancing the warmode participation rewards. the current state of the buff/quest causes the horde to just turn off war mode when the few that do participate just get hunted down for a piece of gear.

there is no reason why blizzard cannot track and assign the buff correctly on our region, we already automatically get placed on oceanic shards, at this stage it does seem we are being ignored.

World pvp is one of my favorite activities and it is increasingly hard to participate now.

“over all the system is working fine it just screws Oceanic realm players.”

Mate, how can you say the system is working fine, it just screws oceanic players? Do we not matter? If the system isn’t serving all players who are contributing equal dollars to blizzard how is it working at all? I don’t think working is a word that can be associated with this system at all right now.

If the system is working for X portion, but completely ruins the experience for Y portion - it’s not working at all really is it?

This should be a top priority and Blizzard just brush it aside, this takes me all the way back to BC/WoTLK when “Working as intended” became a meme.

You chose to ignore the words ‘over all’ at the start of your quote, if something is working for 95% of people then it is working ‘over all’, ie the vast majority of people.

Hell I even said I disagree with it and don’t like the system as is. But you’re a perfect example of why some people don’t reply as cherry picking words and ignoring context to argue your point is all you’re doing.

“ie the vast majority of people”

You realise you’re on an oceanic forum right? where it’s not working for the entirety. And you’re an MVP here?

You’re speaking in a forum, where nearly every last poster / reader is oceanic, thus the system isn’t working for them at all.

Once again, it’s not like we have an MVP going “Yeah you’re right, this is a joke, let’s really campaign to get this fixed” - instead we get “Classic blizzard brush aside, insert X unacceptable excuse”.

We may as well start threads demanding MVP’s that actually campaign for the good of oceanic WoW instead of making excuses for blizzard.

P.s. - you cherry pick just as much as anyone else I see post here. You’ve just done it. Be careful where you point your little green finger.
