How would you revive 3v3?

10/10 nice

do you know if there is a req tank slot or what they are doing about that?

If there’s a tank on one team there’s a tank on both teams. It’s either both get one or no tanks

sounds like a lot of fun for hunters, druids, and rogues

Tanks are optional but always paired.

I think they also said you only get flag carry maps if there’s a tank.

The game as a whole has zero appeal to new young players.
Showed it to my nephew and he was like looks neat.
Watched a few youtube vidoes and said nah Im not paying for the game and 15 a month.

Healing sucks in pve and pvp and there is a shortage across the game.
You either have to design the game to be less dependent on healers or find a way to make the role more popular.

Group finder sucks.
Why waste time trying to find a group when I can just queue SS and afk playing something else.

There is no entry point for new players.
Community is brutal on new players why participate if you spend most of your time looking for other new players, fail to find them, and then get roasted by someone when you dont play like you have gotten 20 glad titles and been rank1 a half dozen times.

Just avoid the game mode play SS and ignore the chat

good call, should help keep druids in check

sounds like a smart kid +1

combination of 2 things imo are what are killing off 3v3, at least in dragonflight.

reward structure is bad, season 1 had a cool mount so people played. season 2’s is… not as good, and the forums had a collective meltdown over s3’s being a recolor. combine a bad reward with being unattainable, not shocking the player base quits out.

second factor is the dragonflight wheel of balance is bordering on war crimes at this point. every patch/random hotfix totally flips the meta and its just really lame at this point. theres either the mm hunter complex of ā€˜small buffs for 10 patches, now its ruining the game’ or ā€˜release a new spec/rework midseason that is always oppressive’.

you can just book it at this point, re-roll to the next class getting a rework, its going to be incredibly strong and remain that way until the next spec gets their rework, and the wheel continues to turn.

I want them back though and see no reason for them to stay gone. Just cuz so few people do them… so few people go the garrisons yet we still have those.

Not in America ! :clown_face:

still waiting. crazy 3v3 is the most popular bracket according to these forums and yet no one knows how to revive it? :skull:

No more Warrior/Mage/Druid/Warlock metas. Funny no one noticed that participation tanked when Ret/War became meta again and it was already suffering because Bermuda triangle is also lousy to play into.

All this.

For sure these.

Seems like every time they do this the numbers drop. Its really hard to track properly though. There’s also the sad reality that hitting Rival or better is just flat easier on some classes as opposed to others. Ret v Glass Cannon Fire mage for instance. At some point the devs have to set a clear goal in mind for what level of performance should be available when playing at or near skill floor. When you have classes that do amazing damage while doing lots ā€˜wrong’ its an issue.

TLDR, what and why balance occurs is sometimes more important than always balancing for ā€˜reasons.’ Those reasons being way more often than not just because people can’t handle losing.

time to remove 3v3 and focus on the future – solo rated bgs

yup Solo Battlegrounds

long queue and … AFK bots

seems like winner combo.

( I hope I am wrong)

gonna be fun regardless especially if the queues are under 1 hour its a win

After playing a bit last night…I would revive 3s by gutting Aug and burying in a pit encased in concrete. That should fix like 75% of problems

Remove the restrictions from the item level for pvp gear in pve and then ban all tanks/augs from queueing :joy:

That should get things moving nicely

I said revive it . not kill it off … :dracthyr_nervous_animated:

lol there are no PvP devs

i don’t think you can. arena participation kind of needs momentum. they’ve been bad faith ignoring it for like a decade plus pulling random strings and pushing random buttons now trying to undo systemic damage.

but if i had to try, i woudln’t be a pvp dev. i’d be a class dev. it has to start from the ground up. can’t just band-aid gameplay. classes need to feel good into eachother. if you want to quit when you see half the specs in the game that’s not a good place.

solo rbgs will be fun tho

How would that kill it? I’m curious.

I think you’d get a ton of pvers playing pvp again trying to chase ā€œBISā€ items.

I would keep the trinket bonuses in place to deter any trinket shenanigans.
