PvP with the Blues – June 21

In Development The War Within Beta Test
1

This Friday, June 21, please join members of the World of Warcraft development team in PvP on The War Within Beta Test Realms as we playtest Deephaul Ravine. We came across some issues with queueing the battleground last week that we have since resolved, and want to get the map into players hands for feedback!

We’ll get underway at 3:00 p.m. PDT (5:00 p.m. CDT, 6:00 p.m. EDT) with an hour of playtesting. To playtest this with us, log onto the End Game Realm “These Go To Eleven”, which have max level character templates and access to various vendors. To queue up, open the Group Finder (default hotkey: i), then select Random Battlegrounds and click Join Battle. Deephaul Ravine will be the only battleground available for Random Battlegrounds on beta.

Before we get things rolling, we recommend taking some time to get your character setup properly for PvP combat. Please check out the various gear and profession vendors in Orgrimmar and Stormwind and utilize the latest trinkets, PvP gear, and class sets in The War Within.

We look forward to playtesting with you and reading your feedback afterward, see you there!

Cool, I’ll use this as a chance to test out the new survival hunter.

Wonder what the shaman and druid turnout will be in the pvp with the blues since they’ve all but been ignored all beta, more so shaman then druid. Might be oddly hard to balance around classes with glaring issues but you do you.

Well after two games I can firmly say that hunter feels pretty good…Alliance not so much lol

I liked the bg btw. It was fun.

Though still suffering from a fair few Lua errors, the actual bg was pretty good even though I lost both matches.

Pretty hard to get a grasp of balance with so many new spells flying around. Some guardian druid was running around nigh invincible though. Locks and hunters dominated damage by no small margin.

Seemed like a bit of a zergfest at points. Everyone just kind of attacked the middle. Had fun playing though.

Scoreboard seemed bugged, I had the same result on it each game.

Scoreboard hasn’t worked well for me at all since beta started. I can’t sort and sometime it doesn’t update.

Really liked the map was kind of hard to do much cuz on alliance side kept getting one sided games vs horde {or least the 1s i was in}

i know they will be doing it over the next few months but i do hope the tuning will be alot better then it is now heh pvp feels very slow and not really big on slow paced pvp

Had fun but only got into a match toward the end. Played flameshaper devoker it felt pretty solid.

I was only able to get 1 game in as dps. I wanted to also heal a few and get a feel for my perspective class. Will there be another day you run this bg?
