It's time for one sided Faction changes

I’m a casual player that decided to reroll on a pve server at level 55 after getting killed too many times at flight paths and brm.

We’re always going to be bitter. Blizzard didn’t help us when faction imbalance shut down questing and killed Flamelash, so any problems the horde face from here on out we may celebrate out of spite.

Can we just get character services in general?

Salty salty alliance, even when they have the eternal queue advantage they’ll still be crying about the month of wpvp carnage. I get it though, it’s all good. Queues aren’t bad at all right now, I know they’ll get worse and it will still be fine.

No faction changes, don’t reroll, suck it up, at least you’re not alliance, the whiniest faction for the past 15 years.

I have horde and alliance 60’s and this post is so true lol. Chuckled irl.

Sounds like you’re throwing more of a tantrum that everyone isn’t spoon feeding you guys like Blizz does with everything else.

It isn’t gonna change and the next injustice against the Alliance, the Horde will do the same, and so on and so forth.

Rather than Horde players trying to be constructive about imbalance issues, they responded with the trolling and flaming.

Now that the Alliance has the ball on the court, typical Horde are attempting to blame us for our refusal to agree with you. I wonder why.

Ah see, I haven’t figured out how to see what server everyone is on.

Lets see, have to wait a few minutes for a Q or spend an hour corpse hopping to get into an instance??

Which would you prefer?

Queues happened on an 80% horde server.

Most Horde seek instant gratification. Hence their issues now. So they prefer and want daddy Blizz to make sure they have neither.

How about the one-liners you all say to alliance all the time:

REROLL

They should take a lesson from MOBAs and just add bots to even things out.

Adding factions transfers or merc mode to CLASSIC wow can’t be a serious suggestion. I would go as far as to say that if you suggest such a thing, you should be auto banned from classic servers. Of all the possible changes to the game people want, this would probably be the worst.

This sounds like an oceanic problem, not an overall problem. Horde in USA have maybe a 4 to 8 minute queue, which is much less than they deserve considering they all ganged up together and have a pretty large population advantage.

Yeah, I definitely understand and appreciate the time committed.

Also, pre-launch, they had the whole name reservation thing, and obviously so many people were anticipating WoW for such a long time. Some people claimed to have quit their jobs to focus on Classic, or taken vacation or extended vacations. That’s not an every day type of thing.

Having said that though, if people were willing to dedicate so much time for Classic, we also could have looked at the information we had available, both historically, and anticipated, and made reasonable choices, including waiting for greater stability and/or understand of how servers would establish their communities, etc.

While it’s fun (to an extent) to play the Horde vs Alliance game, at the end of the day, we are all WoW fans, who enjoy the world of Azeroth, and spend a lot of time leveling, gearing, collecting items and reputation, etc. and obviously become attached to our characters.

I think the most frustrating thing is that we don’t know what/when the plan is for transfers, and knowing Blizzard, we also can’t say with total confidence that something like faction transfers won’t ever happen in Classic (though, I suspect that they won’t, and I also do not believe imbalance to be the issue some people are hyping it up to be).

Having rerolled myself, I realized that however many days of /played I’d invested into my Horde side characters, it wasn’t nearly as much as I will have if/when I ever stop playing Classic.

I also had initially intended to play Alliance, but after about level 20, I just couldn’t do it. Having always been Horde, it just didn’t feel right. Not for Classic. Not at first. But, when I started reading all about the faction imbalance on the forums, I got interested, and started poking around, and creating characters on some of the more severely imbalanced realms to check out the scene and talk with people. I ended up meeting some great people from an excellent guild, and that’s where I find myself now.

Rerolling is a lot of work, sure. And dropping your characters, or shelfing them for however long is maybe not something to do lightly, but time will continue to pass, and people who have rerolled, like me, are catching up and/or have caught up. It isn’t an insurmountable obstacle blocking your progress. If it’s something you have considered, it is something you can do.

Good luck!
