Editing the main post since people don’t seem to understand what we’re after here.
We want the requirements for the AV mount to be changed to encourage actual PvP and winning the BG rather than camping boxes in the mine, taming wolves before other people can and trying to snipe corpses from other players using the swap blaster to get the badges.
As it is the current grind encourages a hostile attitude towards your fellow team mates and discourages people from actually trying to capture objectives and win. It’s badly designed and needs changing.

It’s not that bad, to be honest. I did three AV’s yesterday and I’m at 60%. Just be quick with looting the bodies of the opposing faction, make use of your Recall, and you’ll be done in no time.

At least make it award a good chunk of badges for winning.
Almost an hour stuck on the Alliance bridge for nothing.

I got mine after two AVs. Granted one of them lasted over 3 hours and still hadn’t ended. I had great fun!
I say don’t nerf it. The event lasts until January. You don’t need everything right away on day one.

Because farming supplies from the mines for three hours is SO much fun.

I did the mines once and it sucked. If you want the mount, why are you doing the absolute worst way to get it?

What other ways are there? Desperately trying to click corpses before they despawn for armor scraps? Or spamming flag capture points? It’s faster to do the mines.

The wolves! Tame one wolf, get 5 badges. It’s super easy and fast. Also, corpse clean up after a big fight.

Don’t do the wolf/ram pelts. Farmed up 30 of em and awarded nothing. Waste of friggin time. Taming gets 5 each turn in.

I’d like the achievement ‘Alterac Valley of Olde’'s timewarp badges be account wide though, but alas.

I will say wins should be counted and the badges for winning upped. I mean, if you stick it out for 5 hours and win you really should be rewarded. Lol

Sadly that’s only for the first 25 people who do it. Once 25 wolves are tamed the quest disappears.

Last night that happened to me in my second game. I pretty much spent the game killing Alliance and looting corpses. It was easier if you skirt the edges of the battle and do corpse clean up. I love pvp, so that might be why I had so much fun.

They need to give us 10% per win at least… Each game lasts for 30min … It’s like waste of time…

That’s all hoot and dandy someone figured out the best way is to farm wolves/rams.
Like someone else said there’s only a certain amount of turn ins then it disappears.
Everyone has figured it out now, good luck getting it done. Almost all my queues have put me inside in progress games with no npc
This is why the mount requirement needs nerfing. This isn’t even PvP. This is just plain torture. The best ways to get badges involve avoiding other players.

Good for you. You got ahead of the rush before people realised the best way to farm it. I’m on my third game now and at 25%.

you still have armour scraps. Its pretty easy to collect if you just go to the mess of ally and horde killing eachother and loot the corpses. Most of my progress went towards handing in scrap
