Do Horde get any Warcrates? Im guessing no

Do Horde get any Warcrates? Im guessing no. Had one spawn right by my horde. 5 alliance arrived before I could cap it. Killed one lmfao.

Hey devs can you like you know use that sharding tech and balance war mode shards so its not 1 horde and 30 alliance. Haha just kidding I know yall want that faction swap money.

Just had a pretty good fight over one and the Horde got it.
I don’t even think population is the problem, but rather that the Horde don’t actually go for it. I see them flying around almost as much as Alliance but when a crate drops they are nowhere to be seen most of the time.

Reminds me of all of the stuff Horde said in BFA.

The Horde simply isnt the pvp faction. We cant force them to turn WM on. We cant force them to go for warchests.

Blizzard just needs to fix the sharding. They need to balance them more really.

A bit different situation here since the problem is more about fixing the sharding, and less about trying to get Horde to turn WM on.

War Mode bonus for Horde fluctuates between 10-15%, at the moment it’s 10% so we’re relatively even, but the sharding is just horrendous… They need to start consolidating the dead shards so it isn’t a problem.

Woo finally got one on my horde warrior. It was a huge fight at one of the pvp areas. Alliance were probably hurting each other and I invited other horde to a group hehe.

Omg yeah next one not in a pvp ffa area and 10 alliance on it from the start. Not a chance.

School is out now there is 0 chance.

The reason why Horde get crates more often in or near the FFA PvP areas is there’s usually already Horde there, plus like you mentioned Alliance will be hitting each other too.

But I find usually it’s just that the Horde don’t go for crates. They are all over when I’m doing world quests, they are all over the FFA PvP areas, they are all over getting herbs and mining but only 1 or 2 usually show up to crates.

It’s actually kind of funny what I’ve noticed.

I’m on my lowbie leveling while honor farming in BGs (It’s actual pain, thank you for asking, I cry every night), and horde genuinely will get unga bunga brain when they see my lowbie character, gun after me, let the Alliance cap the chest, just so they can put me in the dirt.

I’d say it was an isolated incident, but I’m at 3 in my counter right now. It’s a coincidence I’m sure but I still think it’s kinda funny that the Horde will go “Nah, to hell with this treasure, there’s a lowbie thinking they’re people.” :dracthyr_hehe:

I haven’t been able to loot a single crate as horde in this expansion. 100% of the crates have 10+ alliance and maybe 2 horde. I stopped trying as it’s a waste of time.

The reason why you are being singled out during fights over resources is because at low level you’re easy to kill, which helps even out the fight. If I get into a fight with someone who’s 80 and a lowbie joins the fray I kill them immediately if I get the opening. They may not be able deal any real damage, but the extra CC can tank my odds.

You’re also the only person they can realistically kill before the 10+ Alliance players annihilate them lol

on my realm we put together an in game community that goes out on patrols and helps get crates.

we also spam General chat with “CRATE GO FOR THE CRATE” to let others know there is plenty of horde out and they have a shot.

We usually only go out with 3-5 people, but its enough to turn the odds. Especially if others see we are fighting.

Horde currently has the mentality of, “There’s too many Alliance I cant get it.” So they don’t even try anymore. But there’s enough of them, if they tried, to get it.

Ape together strong.

(at least on my realm group. some realm groups may actually just be at huge disadvantage)

People don’t want to play horde.
You can’t force free will.

If 3-5 horde show up at a crate there’s a very good chance they will get it. Even if they don’t, it’s a fun fight and most welcome.

I’ve been at Isle of Dorn all weekend, and crate drops are getting rather dull without the Horde around. It’s pretty bad when I have to fight off seagulls instead, LOL.

dude i have been playing everyday all times of the day and ive gotten three since launch…ive also only won a handful or less of random bgs, im at a 80% loss rate in rbg solo and i still havent won a brawl or a epic bg on my main character. I have managed to gather a total of 1200 conquest since the start of the season across three different characters…i know other people are doing a lot better but 99% of my experience is solo…honestly if something doesnt change i wont be playing much longer. my experience in tww within is basically just been watching alliance have fun. im kinda over it.

Lol please I landed at a box in a ffa pvp area yesterday and I was about to get the box when a group of horde attacked and killed me than start fighting each which resulted in the ally having time to show up kill the horde and getting the crate. Can’t fix stupid :man_shrugging:

Just got out of a (A)7v1(H).

I keep hearing people complain this but I’ve been getting about 20-30% of the ones that I go for. The only actual problem that I don’t see anyone complain about is that the crate drops extremely quickly. If you’re not right on the plane when it drops already and have to fly over, someone else is going to cap it way before you even get there.

Vast majority of the crates that I’ve lost have just been because of that.

IF you are really motivated, between 2 and 5 am you can usually scoop a crate or two as horde
