You should be encouraging faction balance, Blizzard. This will do nothing to help a struggling Alliance faction with PvP.
Edit: Was banned four days for the above, including a denied appeal - in a thread specifically asking for feedback no less. Says everything you will ever need to know about this company and the incompetent temps currently staffing it.
Terrible change to the game with clear long term reprocussions to faction balance. Rebalancing Horde racials ala Wrath (WotF shared cd with trinket) and letting the population dynamics work themselves out would be healthier.
Congrats to the Horde! Now, let’s talk 24/hr playtime for solo alliance queue in losing bg’s. It pretty much equates to same honor/hour horde WERE getting, but now their insta pops means horde will outpace alliance pvp’ers gearing.
Please enter the Battleground queue in-game over the next four days, and then after you’ve experienced it, let us know how it went for you in this thread.
Two of my comments have been deleted and another flagged by the community. The horde warlock posting about premades has reposted at least 3 times because it keeps getting removed, not hidden.
I feel in all of this discussion, the voice of that players that enjoy the lore or the fantasy is getting lost.
I want to fight the battle that the (game-)world around me fights. With that, I exclusively want to fight the other faction in bgs.
Pandora’s box is opened and will be hard to close again, at least give me a checkmark in the options to opt out of the mask silliness and not being in my base. I don’t mind the extra wait.
Let’s give me the possibility to stay true to the rpg in mmorpg.
GG WP blizzard… its like 20/80 ratio for horde on our server. We can’t farm golds, we cant normaly enter dungeons/raids, we cant even summon ppl and now you work for them blizzard? Where have you been while in classic ally lost every AV because horde starting cave was in the middle of BG? You wanted classic experience and we understand that. But i dont understand this move… Well … horde crybabies always get what they want… Bye bye warcraft lore. Classic experience no more.
This is going to lead to abuse. Without diminishing returns on honor, collaborating same-faction matchups can just honor farm one side at the graveyard until they get max honor points, then swap.
