Anyone else excited for real twinking to come back? Yes, one shotting people is fun when I grind hours for my gear and you didn't. I gave twinking in Bfa a shot and it was enjoyable but definitely not the same. Check me out and come join our 49 bracket on alliance if you play .

I am looking forward to twinking again. Not for the one shots, but to have the best armor and enchants for the level you want. Love the challenge of getting gear at the risk of being able to over level your twink. Takes alot of pre-planning. Would look forward to doing it again.
twink at 60

Agreed, probably the most fun part about it.
I was just thinking of this last night, it would be really fun to do again

I've been debating hitting another bracket, I've got a few at 70 as well
I never understood twinks in bgs tbh. I love pvp, I really do, but when you have that much of an advantage on someone it isn't even fun.
I asssssume then that you get zero experience in pvp battel zones like before. ( with the exception of npc characters - I recall you actually got quest experience for killing in the ice cave in the Altrec valley)
So you can think again without turning experience off? ( currently u can turn experience off by talking to a guy on the capital city of your faction)
Twinkling in the current game with ur experience turned off is lackluster because they put you a special exclusive question with all turned off limp no-exp players who like you are all kitted out with twink best in spot... soooo lame and the question took forever.
The sweetest spot ever for twinkling was years ago when they just came out with overpowered heirlooms ( now heirlooms are often less powerful than good dungeon drops if the dungeon is just at the top of ur cue level).
I got all the guild heirlooms and enchanted everything and was killing players sooooo fast but sadly I gained levels and others later did the same thing so the pvp killing fields equalized with everybody dressed in heirlooms.
Anyway I am proably going to avoid battel grounds until 60 just so I dont get smashed by evil overheated twinks like you.

Umm twinks are literally everywhere. My last two dates were with twinks.
Real twinks players face other twinks, no one good enjoys 1 shotting scrubs.
My alt warrior had dual flurry axes when i went to level him.. He was a boss haha

I don't like PvP, but I don't mind reading the info about twinks at different levels.
Hearing about the stats, strats, and BiS for the different level brackets is fascinating to me.

In Classic. PvP is a choice. What you gave up in PvP was the leveling experience. Retail ruined it by adding experience into Battle Grounds. The whole turn off xp was a bad idea. For one, it makes twinks do other things instead of PvP. I can do dungeons and go explore the world and increase my professions. My Twink was made for the sole purpose for BG's.
Classic got it right. It was for competitive fights. No other reason to do BG's but for that reason. It had its on community. Seeing the same face at a certain level bracket was awesome.
Retail hurt PvP and PvE in many ways. So for those who could level through BG's would get the worst experience because Twinks would be in their game hurting there leveling process, while Twinks are hurt by those who come into BG's to level only. Nothing competitive about that.
I will say though...... there are those who like a good challenge, Twinks and non-twinks. I have seen very few that didn't have the best gear but still gave a good fight, because they know how to play their class our their style of play.
because they know how to play their class or* their style of play.

Twinking is evil and should be banned.
Also they just brought twinking back with BFA for reasons well beyond my ability to understand.

Your opinions are evil and should be banned.
Make a twink instead of complaining about them. Or alternatively play on a pve server and just do pve content if you can't deal with someone in the world having any measurably better gear than you and use that to their advantage.
Im strictly pve but even there i barely comprehend how twinking could be fun.
To me when you remove the challenge, whether by equipping a low level with high level gear, having a high level escort you, or grinding excessively for uber gear, you remove much of the fun.
I prefer to receive at most a medium degree boost in performance from preparation and foresight.
In pvp where i presume much of the joy comes from mutual respect between living humans i would expect even more fun to be removed.

There is still a challenge, considering both sides had twinks. Just because you had the best gear didn't mean you won automatically. Especially if you weren't playing an OP class like hunter or priest.
Im all in on twinks again every bracket every class 15 accounts both ali and horde
