Temporarily.
See, here’s what will happen:
Horde will get the 30% bonus and the WPvP quest for the week.
Totally lacking any incentive, the Alliance will either turn it off, or not turn it on. So you’ll have the quest, but you won’t be able to complete it. …and you’ll QQ about not having any alliance to fight like you were pre 8.1.
The next week, the Alliance will once again have the 30% bonus and the quest, and all those WPvP fans on the horde will…well you’ll either repeat the boycott or give up. And if you repeat, you’ll just not find enough Alliance again and again until you eventually do.
8.2 the devs will pull the bonus because it’s not working, and worse it’s being gamed/abused.
The short version is that the Alliance has a population crisis, and the only way to fix it is to try and encourage people to swap factions.
The problem with this…for horde players like you…is that it means that we get things that you don’t.
…because that’s what an incentive is. The devs give things to people who play alliance to get them to play alliance instead of Horde.
Why is this difficult to understand?

I don’t pvp anymore and don’t turn wm on in any case .
Even attempting to imply that Horde is somehow more honourable or wouldn’t exhibit the exact same behaviour as camping world quests is laughable.
The only thing I care about now is the 75 free conquest from invasions… which take forever. I love wpvp but incentivizing it is killing wpvp

You are right about that . If somebody puts wm on he/she should be forced to keep it on for one week .that will stop these occasional. Banking and greed .atleast in the past due to pvp servers I could find the person who ganked me wnd kill him but now they just kill and go war mode off . That ain’t fair and this system needs to be changed or else I refuse to wm on
They need to make the quest to 100 players kills per week and give it to both factions … then ppl who want to PvP will PvP , the others will turn it off.
100 kills take a long time especially if the other faction is also hunting you .

That won’t solve the problem as they can easily turn it on/off and kill people in batches .It should be for a week .like it should reset on Tuesday and then you have choice whether to off it or keep it

Yes but when both sides have it … every time you go out in a group there will invariably be another opposing group waiting for you. That is what is missing in only 1 faction having this quest .
And if you need a lot of kills , ppl will need to keep it on for much longer .
Yes it would.
But relax, you are soo much overpoping the game on all aspects of it like 1600+pvp rating be 65% horde 92% of all top M raid guilds are horde, over 70% M+ are done by horde most instanced content such as LFG/LFR/RandomBG are also done by horde. I mean it is a huge pop difference, so its no surprise that warmode is also mostly horde which constantly complained that there were no alliances to kill.
Faction imbalance may swamp on next expansion. Or in 4 years.

Nah.
When both sides does it you will be ran over by the most populated faction, constantly, at everytime.
When the underpop side does it the wrost that is going to happen is no pvp hrodes turning off warmode, which is their intent.
Yes I agree with you that both parties should be given the quest
Actually all horde are turning it off… guild mates with 2500 arena rating are also turning it off because they don’t want to feed alliance kills.
This is not a good design
Yes.
This is what the design intent, horde is overcrownded.
I wasn’t turning it on too before since all i could do was feed horde achievments and everywhere there were 4/5 hordes.
i dont warmode, but i feel like rewards should be there for people who participate in warmode, not for those who don’t. better if there weren’t any at all, but i think that ship has sailed.
Warmode is almost a complete failure. It should have never had bonus rewards tied to it. If they keep this system in place, all you will see eventually is a seesaw of people turning war mode on and off depending on the week for the reward. What is organic about that?

no rewards = people who want world pvp using warmode, and people only there for the bonus are gone.
really, that would fix warmode, its world pvp, it has never been balanced or regulated.
yea, it really doesn’t make sense. they are more of allies in WM, they are the ones that are ganking us , and it is them who receive a reward for it. why in a world would horde participate in this?
I agree. I roll with it on all the time. It’s just annoying now. Blizz needs to fix sharding and everyone would be much happier
