Mercenary contract

I really enjoy playing the Horde. In fact, there are some classes I just cannot stomach playing as any other race but my favorite races on Horde, for instance, there isn’t much point in playing a shadow priest unless you are playing the Undead.

Gonna make this short.

Mercenary contract is ruining pvp. The serious players all que up on the Alliance from Horde, leaving the Horde with either new players who aren’t in the know, or less serious players that are just popping in a bg for a bit.

PLEASE REMOVE THIS! Or maybe just make pvp a mix of Horde and Alliance vs. Horde and Alliance. I have literally been playing in Horde groups of 6-8 vs. full groups of Alliance. This function may have been a solution at one point, but now it is just causing really terrible pvp experiences for those that que Horde.

Perhaps I am wrong, happens from time to time. What do yall think?

I think you’re right. When I used Details Raid Check to get average ilvl on Alliance vs Horde random bgs, Alliance was about 7 ilvls lower. I think it’s because low gear horde just want fast queues to gear up quicker, sticking Alliance with a disproportionately high amount of poorly-gear players. Add to the fact that low gear horde using merc mode also takes away a low ilvl player from the horde side.
