People are so mad that an AV might last 30m instead of 6m

It was pretty even at first. Leveling zones were fairly even. Even during the ‘P2 alliance nightmare’ alliance held LHC/TP in massive raid teams killing anything that moved. Ungoro was a constant warzone. BRM meat grinder held true but it swung back and forth between both factions - those holding until the next same faction turned up.

Now its dead. We know alliance are still on the server because of the raid logs. We dont see them - ever.

Yeah, the AV queues are still favoring Alliance. The Battle Masters in IF and SW are usually buried by players. Many folks have already farmed up all they need from dungeons and raids. I suspect they’re only logging in to do PvP, or not logging in much at all. Things should pick back up in a couple weeks!

I understand that - hence my replies to ‘did blizz take wpvp away from you’.

Yes they did, by introducing bg’s 2 months early.

Which server are you on? And what time do the Alliance folks raid? We’re Alliance-heavy, and the horde do just fine making our raids/dungeon runs harder to start.

We even had priests and engineers MC’ing us away from the ledge in BRM, which made it harder for us to rez and jump away from them.

Hurtful. ;(

I guess you’ll be doing WSG this week.

Yep.

Well, we’ll see if that’s how the change works.

You even, inadvertently, admit you don’t really know:

Read the next part, bud.

Bonus objectives that give honor but don’t despawn warmasters: Lieutenants, Captains, Commanders. They also don’t take several minutes to get, thus not really delaying the game to the point of being inefficient.

Dude, I’ve been saying Blizzard shouldn’t be changing things, and you’re saying I’m salty that Blizzard is changing things.

Pick a side already.

Then you didn’t want Classic.

Says the harpy cave farmer.

But that’s kinda skewed, because that’s entirely dependent on player resistance. If the other side is determined to stop you from killing LTs and Capping Towers, that’s going to add a variable amount of time to the equation. Hence, the path of least resistance is preferred for HpH.

With that said, I happened to solo q into a Marshall’s premade who couldn’t complete their 6-9min Drek rush, got into 15min into the game and they decided to just AFK in cave and wait for horde, as they claim it’s better for overall HpH.

I questioned this idea because this is completely dependent on when Horde decide to end the game. As it turns out, Horde didn’t end the game till 27min in. So that extra 12min we sat in the cave, we could’ve probably capped a couple of towers for extra Honor.

Sure enough, when I Q’d into another premade that did the Triangle method, we still ended the game in roughly 26ish minutes and got almost twice the honor than the Marshall’s (afk) game. Go figure…

I will never understand this mindset when playing an MMO.

Play the game you love the least amount of time as possible, since people are so busy now and days? That’s sorta what i gathered from it.

Yes… But you get pissed about sub-60’s, 60% mounts, harpy farming, AFKs… along with the number of other things you complain about here in the forums.

So, you’re basically saying that you’re only cool with #NoChanges when it’s going to benefit you.

There are only 24 hours in a day. I don’t want to waste half an hour suffering through a BG I don’t really enjoy to get honor equal to what I could be getting in 6 minutes.

I’m ALWAYS #nochanges, regardless of how the lack of changes affects me.

Just because that does, in fact, sometimes benefit me does not mean I ONLY want #nochanges when it benefits me.

Stop being disingenuous.

Dude…

Yeah… If Blizzard wanted it to be a 6 minute BG, they would not have created AV.

It’s called honor. It only makes sense if cheaters don’t get any when cheating.

I had a 1 hour AV yesterday and it was the best AV I’ve done so far in Classic.

Yeah, bit his hot pockets get cold if the BG lasts more than 6 minutes.

And yet the BG they created can be won in 6 minutes. ???

I’m not sure who you think is cheating, exactly, but wanting to get the most honor per hour by winning quickly and not delaying the game is NOT cheating.

Get a grip.

As if I wouldn’t just eat them as I auto run across the Field of Strife. Typical noob inefficiency.

Small advantage ?? Lol u can premade av. Thats not a “small” advantage. Id say 99% of my games i play are over in 8 mins.

My wife was playing Candy Crush last night. She won and the game continued to playing itself. I asked her if there’s any benefit when that happens and she says “you can get higher ranks.”

Perhaps that game will suit your play style a bit more?
