Please mesh XP on and XP off together again

I honestly thought that part was sarcastic.

10 minutes is pretty good tbh.

You know what was better? Less than 10 min queues.

That promised communication by Blizzard is a close second.

I’ll take 10 minute queues for vastly better quality BGs than less minute queues for :poop: quality BGs that we had before the split. But that’s just me :man_shrugging:

Yep people seem to love long qs 120 is now 22min too enjoy bfa

44 minutes in a queue at level 85 and counting for a BG horde side. I don’t even think twinks could save low level BGs at this point.

Merc mode at low levels or a level squish is the only thing that would save BGs.
Also bringing twinks back :wink:

It’s real bad in the 80’s. Wasn’t that much better with the twinks either.

No leg armor, no weapon enchant, no shoulder enchant. You’re nothing close to a twink, you’re not even close to the person who cares about maximizing their character while leveling.

Thats what I’m saying. 80-89 did have 3 viable twink brackets in it though, 80s, 85s, and 89s, which would definitely help the queue times. Not nearly enough to stop 54 minute (this is when i finally got my BG) queue times.

?? I have a scope on, that’s what MM hunters use. This is a crazy degree of gatekeeping and an extremely weird flex, but ok bro, guess my 5 agil I am missing puts me “not even close to the person who cares about maximizing their character while leveling”… lol good lawd

You have a scope on that wasn’t even good in classic. And 5agi? Guy, you got some learnin’ to do.

I don’t like agreeing with Eilane, but they’re right.

You’re missing quite a lot of stats compared to someone fully enchanted, and the scope you’re using isn’t even what a regular leveler who enchants heirlooms would use. (Incendiary ammo seems to be the popular one currently.)

Your current gear is 3 brackets behind.

Can’t use incend anymore, it’s locked behind both ilevel and BOP’s when enchanted. Only people that can have it were grandfathered in. Otherwise the only scope upgrade would be +3 when you hit 30, but they are $4k for the 1 extra damage.

For giggles, here’s what’s missing:

Deadly Scope (+1 Dmg) - 4,000g
Tiger Claw / Shoulder (4 Agil) - 500g - would love this, don’t have an alt in the 80s
Superior Agil / Gloves (5 Agil) - 9,000g
Major Agil / Boots (4 Agil) - 1,000g
BOUGHT! - Agility / Bracer (6 Agil) - 8,000g
BOUGHT! - Seal of Crit / Ring (2crit aka dogfarts) - 200g

I’ll give you that the shoulders could be enchanted as they are heirloomed and ride with me, but no way I am dropping 20k on disposable gear slots for 19 agil (more than 5, this is true!), just not worth it if you’re leveling through. (Not sure what whidow is saying, I have the gear of someone in the 19s? shrug that guy is vaping gas)

EDIT: Oh hot pockets, I got a guy to do the wrist enchant, +6 on the roster

Since you seem to be clueless, here you go. I don’t know exactly how you came to just 19 agi but those ilevel 25, 30, and 35 gear that you’re rocking could use some lovin.

Your gloves, belts and boots are outdated.

Take 30 seconds and a few marks and grab the low level AB vendor gear.

They just pointed out the gear portion. But I will add on that the trinkets could easily be replaced through the bgs you wish to do as well. Much better than most heirloom trinkets for many levels. The gear is not difficult to get. Enchants never cost that much, and for the rare occurrence that they do you can just enchant your own for a fraction of the cost usually and now you have enchanter than you can always add on to for whatever enchanting purpose you need, as enchanting is never going away. You are certainly missing enchants, and while you wouldn’t get rolled over in a bg a throwaway twink would still have a decent advantage over you.

This is all due to to the devs being either too lazy or inept to properly balance low lvl pvp. The problem is that instead of tuning and balancing the outliers, whether that is procs/enchants/trinkets or busted specs they just choose to go the easy route and segregate the brackets.

Sets a bad precedent. For example they could decide to exclude disc priests and balance druids from low level battlegrounds due to how overpowered they are. Could also institute a no queuing as a group rule. After all the “new people” cited so much will not have friends to do BGs with.
