Allow shadow meld to be used in raids like it is in keys. Lol factions would flip in a week.
I think they would ultimately want to go where majority of the playerbase is. I could be wrong on this, but it makes sense. Why would anyone care about a faction that they feel is a butt of a joke? If itâs not obvious why for several reasons I stated then I donât know what to tell you.
Even I got disappointed with mechagnomes and came to the forums to express my discontent. In a calm manner. Now itâs there forever and I have no clue what they were thinking. They have the ability to fix a lot of things but will they? We do not know.
Incorrect. For over a dozen years, most high-end raiders were Horde even while most of the playerbase was Alliance. It wasnât until this expansion that there were more Horde players than Alliance players overall, in fact.
Well thatâs why I said I could be wrong. I donât know what to tell you. Maybe they would need to express that themselves.
I know it canât be for the allied race racials tho. âMake campâ etc.
remove faction wall and make you pick racial like a talent. if you are horde and want to play a dawrf with human racial that should be a thing. or a vulpera on ally side with troll racial. make race choice pure cosmetic

Hi. As was said in this thread, high end mythic raiders arenât staying off alliance due to lack of appealing allied races. Likewise, high end mythic raiders arenât choosing Horde due to more interesting lore.
Oh I read it, I just think that would be interesting. This would appeal to me, personally, but it also wasnât so serious. Thanks for the input, was wonderful talking to you!
You can be a defector - any race to both factions. Some kind of quest or achievement needed.
Itâs not a faction imbalance, itâs a
Blizzard canât fix an issue with content that one side chooses to do and another side chooses not to do. The only way to fix a perceived faction imbalance will never happen: 1. Remove any faction transfers 2. Remove Heroic/Mythic raids, Mythic+, and World 1st anything and stop trying to turn this game into an Esport. 3. Make all content queable so that both sides have equal chances at the same content.
As soon as Blizzard stops catering to the race to the finish line/Epeen, and focus on content that is fun and all inclusive more players on both sides will try max content on both factions.

I would immediately fire myself because I know I wouldnât be able to come up with a solution that everyone would be happy with.

No its not, when respeccing does no good but give you laughable ability in a spec. In paladins sake, you had no real choice but healing. Prot was a joke outside of 1 raid and a dungeon, and ret was lolret for a reason
Threaten your subordinates to provide a solution or youâre taking them down with you. The power of leadership.

Banshee loyalist faction. 
I wish this would fix it, but it wonât.
Hordes currently have the best racials right now. Its called âhuge solid communityâ.
And its even growing, since more and more guilds on alliance are switching to horde.
People wonât faction change to alliance even if it was for free.
Thats how bad the situation is right now.
I personally think faction merge is the only way.
You canât fix it from a competitive PVE community standpoint. Almost all of the good players have already switched to Horde with more leaving every expansion. Even Method said they werenât going to faction change when mechangnome racials appeared to be extremely op. There is nothing thatâs going lure serious players back. Itâs just too far gone at this point.
What makes this worse is that almost every large server is stacked for one faction. No one is going to take faction changes unless they come with a server transfer and even then I doubt it. No one on Area 52 or Illidan is going to go Alliance and be outnumbered 10,000 to 1.
Shadowlands launch, all BFA & Legion allied races become unlocked. Void Elves have cosmetic options to look like Alleria/normal elves with a racial that activates a void form when using certain racials. Allow free transfers from horde to alliance for 2 months. Large scale server linking medium pops and low pops to create super servers. All core races have access to new class options to assist with the new leveling system. New bounty system now Azeroth/Draenor/Outland wide to flag players ganking of any level. The longer the bounty stays active, the more currency, conquest, honor, trade mats can drop. Also low chance at dropping crossfaction mounts.
Iâd see how this works for the 2 months and adjust accordingly.
Iâm late, but that âtoyâ has been in the game since MoP. We had the Censor of Eternal Agony.
It is entirely possible they could - in an expansion launch - recode the faction system so everybody can play together outside Warmode, but that is a much larger endeavor than the sliver/censor.
How are reputations going to work?
How do faction only toys/transmog work?
How are old raids like Battle of Daz goin to work?
How are the capital cities going to work?
I like to PvP. Am I not going to be able to do battlegrounds with half my raiding guild?
Itâs a huge undergoing. And while itâs the most basic one that can be done in thought to fix the issue, itâs probably the most complicated overall.
Itâd be easier to just offer free transfers and gear/racial incentives to net some of the top guilds in particular regions over than recode a large chunk of the game.
They have to try something before taking drastic measures that take more manpower than weâd realize. The Auction House alone was absolutely hell for them to redo; I donât want to know how hard itâd be for them to recode every single race and both factions to somehow work on a system this old.
