Nerf EXP from BGs and/or make a low base ilvl required

Which would be the gear I have on, actually for 20-29, and even less for 10-19.

Then by that logic everyone should unequip all of their gear and fight in the nude and fighting that way. Skill vs skill, nothing is restricting them doing it. and again, personal insults doesn’t help.

If you don’t want to be insulted for misrepresenting peoples’ arguments, don’t do it…not even going to start addressing your logical fallacy.

What we need is a term that is the opposite of twink, to mean someone that is either deliberately at or close to WiS (Worst in Slot). There seems to be an epidemic of Twunks in these BGs, and now they’re on the forum demanding buffs for their alternative playstyle.

It’s not an alternative playstyle, it’s the average. This is literally the gear you get from dungeons and quests in this level range.

Equip average gear, put in average effort, get average results.

Yes, this is average gear. Should be average results, however as a result of twinking; it’s a low result since I cannot kill twinks no matter how I outplay them.

And I assume your level 28 is your only character? That you, unlike the average player, doesn’t have access to heirlooms or upwards of 2000g for enchants? I’m not sure the average player in the 20-30 range is leveling thru for the first time.

As I’ve stated many times before, this is the average gear for the bracket.

I missed your prior post(s); how did you come to your calculation?

By leveling in said brackets through dungeons, and quests and seeing what gear I gained or had access to from doing so.

So why would random gear drops of your own characters be representative of the average for other players? You’ve made the choice not to use heirlooms that are widely available, to include from many non-gold sources, and have been for nearly a decade. Lets not act like this equipment is rare or difficult or uncommon–its quite disingenuous to act like your personal experience, that includes avoiding heirlooms, is representative of some broad average.

Perhaps you meant the newest players. Perhaps you meant the least skilled or invested players. Perhaps you meant the lowest common denominator of the group.

Strange, I disagree having leveled through the brackets ( to 71 ) recently.

Because it’s the average of what the game gives you for leveling, and heirlooms are not widely available. If they were, I would have access to them during the leveling process.

How long have you been leveling that you’ve been unable to reach level cap at some point in the past decade?

I disagree having leveled 1-40 roughly 80 times, and 40-100 around 35.

Oh, this is fun.

I disagree having leveled more than you and actually posting proof of it. On top of all my deleted characters because I’ve maxed my account a few times.

You’re not particularly understanding the argument i’m making in the fact that the leveling bgs should be balanced around what you get on average via leveling and having people going too far into the extremes is bad and one side or the other needs to be fixed. A player in average leveling gear should not be completely unable to kill a twinked player, and especially in the case of the leveling player being a better player.

Considering you get 10’s of thousands of gold leveling so many times, how exactly are heirlooms not available to you? Have you been to Ironforge? I can show you where the vendor is if you need help

I mean if you want to go off of old accounts and deleted stuff the numbers probably go into the thousands here.
