Horde 90+% win ration is unacceptable. Fix this Blizzard.
To fix AV would require changes beyond the scope of what we experienced in vanilla.
So no. Leave it as is, and just let it die.
Besides, a big part of the issue is the effect que times have on each faction and how they handle the “meta” of farming either honor or rep.
Last night I queued with my guild as a 5 man. We lead the bg to victory for 3/4 games. It was so fun. We were constantly communicating and calling orders rather than half brain standing around defending storm pike gy.
Had two healers, two tanks and a dps though lol
I havent Q’d for an av in over 2 weeks, is it the same ish every game? have we adapted a new strategy yet?
Take sf gy, then run back to defend sp gy.
Then push from sf gy to ib gy and get all lts. If you do that you’ll push to a win in around 40 minutes.
I see, hopefully the pugs can learn to perfect or build on that strat then. I probably wont be seeing av for a long time as I’m working on Silverwing rep now. Ill probably dip in for av weekends though.
From what I can see on the forums, the strat the Alliance are perfecting is how to get the most rep the fastest before AFK’ing out and doing it again.
5 days until AV fix
They could try to implement a former version AV. Many people would like that and it will respect the #nochange.
That’s essentially the mirrored strat the horde use.
Minus the ability to abuse the cave mass spawn mechanic.
GL to you!
How to fix AV
Open gates early for alliance and only respawn 10 at a time for horde cave.
literally fixed without any map changes or anything.
Many people consider pvp the “endgame” be it bg or world and both are a mess.
If this isnt fixed then I sincerely hope that the pvp scene gets worse until it’s only one faction playing
Worst idea ever.
I won 2/4 last night. The real issue are the leechers and afk’rs… if you have less of them, you have a chance.
What has been working is NEVER giving up SHGY and slowly pushing forward. You have to understand the horde defend with 30+ people the whole game. And be prepared to recall with at least 10 people because the horde will only push with 5/10 people. So, you can prevent their 5/10 man kill of Van. Which I have a hard time understanding how is that possible.
why? your post has no value without actually having a counterpoint
They glitch him so he doesn’t reset, even if they wipe. Then, the handful of them die, rez, and keep running back in until he’s dead.
lol
No.
I’ve never seen this since AV dropped. Does anyone have a link to a vid or bug report about it?
I have seen Bean do the jump up on the wall and down to make Van path up and down on stream. But I’m not sure if that is what is being down to kill him with only 5/10 people. Just seems weird.
Alliance won a lot in vanilla and the first two weeks of AV had the alliance winning 4 out of 5 games (not even doing the bubble pull exploit just regular pvp)
The only thing that needs to change is alliance mentality and less afk
