my last 2 cents on this. This would have been better as a themed BG event, and some sort of daily quests where ever pirates are located in WoW. An event in Freehold would have been fun. Allow the players to choose to instance into Attacking Freehold, or Defending Freehold, or any other major city with a port cough SW This would have given the players a choice. Are you against piracy, or “Yarr Matey”?

You do realize that you’re just the other side of that coin right? Going to bat for something you haven’t even tried, yes?

Sort of hard when they offer transmogs pets and mounts, to actually get credible data if they were playing it for actual Game mechanic wise or

No, I’m saying I’ll try it before I form an opinion.

Actually Crusaders of Light by netease had a similar pvp mode minus the pirate theme where you had to upgrade spells and armor before they shut the game down to make diablo 4
I dunno. I bet it will be fun for the people who like games like Fornite. I wish I did. It always looks fun but PvP just is never for me. So, I might beat my head against this for rewards but I’m not gonna enjoy it much. I’m happy for the people who will like it though!
But maybe I won’t need to beat my head against this? I’m not really clear if the rewards from this carry over to the live game. If all the pets and mogging appearances are only for Plunderstorm then I guess I can ignore this content completely.

WHAT!!! a sane and logical comment! Unacceptable!

I’m not sure how you reached that conclusion…but whatever. Giving some rewards regardless of your ranking makes the event more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

I’ve never played Fortnite but Apex was fun and so was Pubg. Haven’t touched them in years but I’ll give this a shot for sure.
You can tell who didn’t read the article. This isn’t wow PvP. This is a separate game.

Aww cmon people, pvp-ers never get anything. This event isn’t for me, but ha ha, maybe it will draw away enough from the Hearthstone event that my horrible lag will get better!

Because most people will run into the field, die, and sit in spectator mode until the match ends just to get rewards. Have you even been to the Superbloom?

but that’s exactly what it is.
You don’t NEED to collect literally everything the game has, and if you feel that you do, that’s not a Blizzard problem.
Everything is Pirate themed, and you claim you don’t even like Pirates anyway. Soooooo…

To be fair, I would be completely fine if they came out with a revamped BGs or some massive overhaul to PVP mode in wow, (even if I am not a PVPer whatsoever), but that’s not the case at all.

That’s a beauty of this thing, though.
It’s designed particularly for folks like you, who might want to come back.
At the same time, players don’t have to worry about some one coming in with 499 gear and the best trinkets in the, pulverizing everyone. It’s got a luck (finding the abilities) along with skill (just being a better player) component.
In time I’m sure someone will figure out which classes have a 1% better DPS than the other and those will be FotM for this event, for those that actually care.
As a participant, what I don’t look forward to is being kill #2 and having to sit through the rest of the encounter. If it was normal PvP, at least you could rez and get back into in, however ineffectively. But, I get it, that won’t work for this. I just hope the whole thing is over quickly. I hope there’s not someone hiding behind a rock for 20m while the other person gives up trying to find them.
