100% agree.
PVP could use some small fixes that would just improve the game a ton.
A good new avenue of thought would be to allow craftable decent PvP gear and up the the R12-14ones with new ranks OR bringing the gear + marks of arathi. (Could be diferent marks if you wanted to breathe some life into Warsong and AV).
Starting the ranking process atm feels all the more difficult when you face 4 or 5 R14 and you can’t yet get into a premade.
It’s doable but depending on your class it can quickly feel frustrating.
Make a blue craftable set with lots of stamina, recipes buyable via BG marks too.
And if you feel fancy, let us trade marks for consumables like FAP/ flask or elixirs persisting through death - could be only usable in BG (or not) but make them stack by 20.

The problem with r15 gear is that It would take at least 10+ weeks for a new person to get max rank, (PVP BIS). Just imagine if that was flipped on PVE and it took 10+ weeks to get naxx gear. people would be UP IN ARMS
Im not against UPDATED pvp gear, or even damage/balance tweaks.
But…
when the SOD team was testing the PVP damage reduction aura in p3 they initally nerfed all damage by 50% and it made pvp SOoooo incredibly slow that it turned into one of the most universally laughed at/retail compared things ever. There might be a middle ground but thats NOT as easy as anyone thinks. But i do wish the devs would try more ideas.
also if your a tank ele/resto shaman your a joke. Im a feral …we actually take skill or we die in 1 stun in cat form. and we dont 2 global people unles they are SUPER undergeared or in full PVE gear.
Resi would tone down the burst.
