I was not happy about the removal of pvp servers.

Yeah the 40s were tough - had 3 maps in a row with zero heals to the horde’s 3, and one where they had 6 that helped drop it a bit.

Even still I am sitting at 50% win-rate, you really consider that “really bad”? I think that’s pretty darn good (and sounds reasonably balanced!) kind of a weird burn but ok homie, whatever you say :hugs:

Amen to that.

I don’t think anyone who really played pvp servers was happy about it.

It’s just the same argument.

So let me get this straight. Twinkhunta is trying to convince everyone that he’s a twink?

You’re the one with gear I guarantee it. If you were the one getting 1-shot, you’d be singing a different tune.

If I was getting one shot I would do some quests and instances to get gear to not be one shot.

Azerite Armor is the aim for a fresh 110 IMO.
Globaling is very much a thing, obtained best by characters who have applied effort in their gearing paths.

1 AZ piece at 118, 119 is self definitely a self imposed disablement.
3 Pieces are obtainable, much earlier.

Nope it’s pretty good how it is and a majority of players like it this way. Fun to jump into a Bg and not get smoked by someone that can’t play unless they are OP. BG’s were won or lost on who had the most twinks not on who had the most skill. The right class imbalance on the right twink ment someone could sit on a cap all match , go 1v4 and still hold it. If the entire team hit them and they lost the cap its cool they just get it back with another player and camp it again til the end of the match.

Zero skill involved in playing as a twink. Yeah you have to farm gear to do it but… so does everyone else as they are leveling up, they are just getting better while you still suck.

But then you’re in the next bracket, and your gear in inadequate again. Funny thing about doing quests and instances, they level you up quickly.

It’s fine actually. A welcome and refreshing change to the game that should stay in place.

Yeah, this change has been getting tons of praise and very little backlash. I’ve been having a blast leveling a toon exclusively through PVP and I may level another since there is another class I’d like to try. I’ve not had this much fun in leveling BGs since Wrath.

Those who say nothing has changed are lying to themselves in order to feel better and I get it, they’re upset and looking for solace. It’ll pass, it always does.

Not really. I have the same win/losses as I did from before. But then again the amount of twinks were exaggerated.

Your beyond pro twink in every thread so not really a point in arguing with you, because you are always right about everything and your anecdotal evidence means more then the masses that complained about it.

for example leveling my rogue up I was experiencing fast crushing losses on one side or the other with whomever had the most twinks. Finally reaching 120 the win/losses became a lot closer with a significant loss in completely one sided matches (which did still occur now and then.)

This still happens.

The community consensus has been reached regarding the effects of longer Battleground queue times since 8.1.5.
It is perfectly safe to say, the masses do not like waiting extended periods for PVP opportunities. (As recorded)
Faster queues are always welcomed by the majority.

That being said, my recent correspondence is in agreement that there are some possible changes in the works which will bring our queue times back to more reasonable numbers.

Every consumer/client should have the same access to participation, which in turn benefit the big picture.

Yes but you skipped the rest of what was said. You know the part about how it doesn’t happen anywhere near how much is use to.

83

Still happens the same amount. Plenty of SS’s have shown this not just from me.

Think I am going to have to trust Blizzard and a majority of players saying other wise versus a small group of people crying about not being able to play their twinks…

I’m still leveling in BGs as I was before. Was never a twink. You can trust who you want, though Blizzard never came out and said this made BGs any better.
