Old WoW Armory

Anyone else remember wow armory in BC/Wrath where you could look up players, look at who they played arena matches against and whether they won/lost and how many points?

They need to bring that back. I mean the framework is already there, the website does that for M+ already. Wouldn’t be hard to make a similar thing for PVP.

The armory used to be a robust feature for wow players.
I remember that you could see your character use emotes, right in the armory!

Check out https://www.arenamate.net/ and the more resources tab from https://pvp.subcreation.net/

Not exactly what you are looking for but you can find some of the info that you are seeking.

Nah, not that information.

I feel like the information of who played with who, against who, and who won should be information that is readily available.

Why’d they do away with it, anyways?

Were people using it to snipe/wintrade or something?

I don’t think it would update in real time so couldn’t have been used to snipe, but people were able to use it to expose wintraders.

The difference probably is 1. You used to have to have a team, with a name, so same server players you teamed up with. Also battlegroups were different as well which is probably why they can’t track like they used to. I mean one LFG loss and people log out nowadays :joy:

I remember when they did the armory “update” and just made it worse by taking away lots of additional information from players.

Probably this exact reason. And it’ll probably never come back now with the wow token economy getting people carried

I miss Arena Junkies when WoW PvP was still super hype. Infinitely better than this forum sadly discontinued after PvP has become an afterthought and the game has slowly lost traction in today’s society.

I miss it so much…

The only good thing about AJ was needing 2200+ to post

I miss the rage comic thread.
