Do pvp'ers just not care about losing?

Or is it apathy. Losing a bg blitz by alot, and not a single sentence typed in chat. At least the people who rage in chat you know they care

Some people queue blitz for the easy conquest. I think the higher rated you are the less likely you’re to have people like this in your group.

Nothing is going to be said in that scenario that isn’t going to get someone reported in todays WoW.

Also, it is just a game… who really cares?

I wish people would realize blitz/shuffle are TERRIBLE honor/conquest unless you do well. People show up in greens and go 0-6 and get what, 200 honor and 0 conquest?

Its god awful. You get paired with literal bots and you waste your time.

Why do that when you can crate farm and have actual fun doing it. Blizz has wrecked structured pvp. This is the first season ive never done any rated content in 16 years.

And you know what… Ive had more fun. A lot more.

Agree OP, I think pvp is hitting a level of apathy to where players just do not care anymore…

Some of us like to PvP. Crate farming isn’t PvP. You might kill 1 or 2 people who didn’t realize you had a raid there but that sounds really, really boring to me.

The thing that absolutely boggles me is people not picking up the orbs in ToK. Like… do people not know that’s how you score points?

Nobody does and it’s super frustrating to see people literally be right by the orb and away from it instead of picking it up.
I don’t like that map because of that.

so apathy then

More like indifference. Losing on a video game should mean very little to you since it’s just a game… even if you enjoy the game, which I do.

Depends on the content, I’m either raging or learning.

It’s just being emotionally mature enough to not let a game nor its inhabitants get under your skin.

dispassionate players suck the life out of the room.

Multiple company reps visited Blizzard campus in person to talk about buying Starcraft, was leaked to gaming news. Companies bidding are NC, Nexon, Netbarble, and Krafton.

Anyway, if all is well at Blizz land why is there a for sale sign on the lawn lol?

Best thing to do is communicate @ the start of the game to grab orbs and try to stack them mid in range of heals. Comms def help; ToK is pretty 1-sided usually so ppl give up quickly.

I have to say, I was annoyed at first (not at the people, but at how frustrating the design felt), but now I even have a macro that instantly kicks me out of arena/blitz at the slightest feeling of wasting my time. Who cares about WoW PvP? If the developers don’t care, why should I?

maybe they just have you muted

Sometimes I’ve even said before the gate opens, “Pick up orbs and I’ll heal you.” It doesn’t feel like that makes much difference.
