Horde weapon cache, please

HI Blizzard,

Would it be possible to have a Horde emissary that is a weapons cache, please? Since the release of 8.3 there has been one for the Alliance (Proudmoore emissary) but there has not been one for the Horde. It would be greatly appreciated by those of use that do not raid or do mythics.

Don’t worry, next time Alliance gets a weapon emissary they’ll make sure you get 3000 AP.

And here we go - today, the new Alliance Order of Embers emissary rewards a Kul Tiran weapon. Horde side? Voldunai - Azerite armor cache.

That is TWO weapon emissaries for the Alliance since 8.3 launched - and NOT ONE weapon emissary for the Horde.

we just got a new one today for order of embers! ally side

Yea I don’t get why they’re not equal rewards.

Reminds me beginning of bfa when horde got 2 weapon caches in first two weeks and we got nothing.

Its a business tactic. Blizzard wants you to buy a race change to get the weapon, then another to change back.

Exactly.

Sometimes the emissary for the Unshackled will pop for both sides at the same time and usually the difference is 35 pearls on one side and 200 WR/3000 AP/2k Gold on the other. Really not that big a deal as the next time they pop it usually gets reversed.

If you want 2 emissary weapon caches

the alliance is waiting for you.

I want to say it is not true, but I am well aware this game has a lot of dumb people.

Alliance is actually up to their 3rd or 4th Weapon Emissary if I recall. Horde hasn’t even had many weapon WQ’s since the patch either. Have been checking daily on my shaman trying to replace her 385 blue, of the four weapon WQ’s that have been up since 8.3, two were intelligence axes and the other two were shields. lol

But don’t worry, it’s still totally Horde bias that we haven’t had a weapon Emissary. :stuck_out_tongue:

I’d rather fight with my fists.

If you want to enjoy your time playing the game

the Horde is waiting for you.

jokes on you my demon hunter is horde

Alliance has another one today and yet zero for Horde since the patch. Seems balanced.

Has Blizzard ever balanced anything in game?

Heck with the weapon cache. My Hordies need 200 war resources.

These kinds of situations make me happy. Looking back at how horde had a week to farm up free 340 gear at the start of the expansion. That was mythic 0 level gear back then. Just farm it up with no entry ilvl required. When alliance got their bite at the apple you had to be 320 ilvl to enter. So fresh alts? Nah man go run your dungeons before you get access to this gear.

I’ve been bitter about that for a while now.

The Horde could use folding chairs and toys as weapons and still win every heroic Battleground…

It isn’t really about “favoritism”, or “balance”, rather it is admitting that something is wrong with their “streaky RNG.”

It has always been like this for Horde, in BFA. That should not be happening; If it was true RNG, they’d be getting about an equal amount of Weapon Caches as Alliance.

As the OP said, I received a 440 or so about a week ago or something. Now I replaced that with a 445 today :wink:

Oh yeah, I forgot that :wink: But AFTER that it seemed to really go the other way.

Blizzard said they would NOT do “pushing” to RNG, saying they support their RNG or something. This is bad, since if I recall correctly other companies have admitted this happens (due to “streaky” RNG) and they actually “push” the results. An example of this would be having RNG in the game work where if there WASN’T a weapons cache, in X amount of rewards, the RNG would then automatically be “pushed” and basically say “Well, there SHOULD have been a weapons cache by NOW”, so then the next one would be a weapon’s cache.
