Please mesh XP on and XP off together again

I have it all ss’ed. Was super quick with heirlooms

Gear scales to level. There are 5 or 6 zones full of gear that can proc epic and scale to an ilvl of 32 ish at level 20.

As i said i have done it dozens of times and since you threw in losses the math just doesn’t work. But i will concede i am wrong IF you show me your 12 games of SS’d progression (wins and lossses) that got you from your first game at 20 to your last game becoming level 30.

Even if you said you won every game, I am fairly positive that bracket would take more than 12 games. Either way it is fast with heirlooms.

Unless you did it in the last few weeks since they changed XP again, which i have not leveled a toon through the 10’s since before i did my LF Draenei and Void Elf last year. So i suppose the new XP could be a factor.

I mean, I was off by a bit:

Personally the only quests i ever mixed with leveling in BG’s is the daily cooking and fishing dailies. Just curious why do you have all these SS’s?

Was just a fun experiment because of a couple people in hysterics over twinks. I got into the debate, then decided to do my own leveling of a non twink and figured I’d SS them along the way, and that’s when I laughed at all these threads even harder.

Probably to counter the anti twink circle jerk that has plagued these forums for the past six months.

Providing proof that almost every BG is the same as before with SS kills the argument.

One of the dogs claimed she photoshopped them. No Mauden, not you.

:joy::joy: I’m still laughing so hard about that.

I must have missed that one. You were accused of photo shopping?

No we laughed when you, and your twink mates were adamant the separation would not happen. When history of WOW clearly shows it was going to. I can understand all the arguments, but it was laughable for us too. So we all laughed together.

Yep. Who is going to photoshop a ss of the ending of a bg?

Your gear is better than most others. XP off was nerfed not your gear.

That was probably the best part of the separation, it was a great feeling of schadenfreude.

I can indeed confirm that 20 twinks most certainly have an advantage to levelers, even 29 levelers would likely be a decent amount weaker than a correctly set up 20 twink with epic upgrades. I have long denoted how much more the lower brackets were less balanced in terms of twinks, even when it was easy to gear for BiS. I can guarantee with epics now they certainly have an advantage even more so now . But it doesn’t mean its not simple to get gear, its just they have an advantage like normal twinks would at this level(nothing like ramstein) and its more chance based with the epic random upgrades. Class is certainly a big factor as usual, with certain ones definitely having much more potential.

Yes they are. Let’s wait for the excuses to appear about that.

Doesn’t mean that it’s extremely unbalanced because of the gear though, only premades as per usual would make it unbalanced in my opinion.

Well had the OP healy shaman level 20 jumping all over AB like a teletubby on a dozen energy drinks. 5-6 noobs on him, and still could not kill him lol. Hey it’s ok, does not do their twink case any good IMO.

Yes and the twinks do group up more for sure, funny how they can grp up for the leveling bgs.

Yeah Restoration Shaman is an S+ tier class it seems generally considered number one or two for twinks and maybe generally OP in the 20s bracket with all the utility it has access two. I was meaning to check, was it a 29 or 20? Cause both has significant difference sometimes to access to tool-kits.

Only the 20 twinks have access through no sub to xpon queues allowing them to group I believe, unless they leave before exp or something,
