It is frustrating when someone without PvP gear, sub-500k HP queues regular BGs rather than epics.
It’s so trivially easy to honor cap pre-70 and ding into a full honor set, I don’t understand why more don’t (well, I assume they buy a PL or something, which doesn’t engender more sympathy).
Had multiple BGs today where half the team has no HP and just vaporize on contact. Just a waste of everyone’s time. Queue epics where you can get carried harder and earn better honor anyway.
Is the time to grind ~10k honor around the same whether you do it pre-70 or at 70?
Lower level bgs are known to be completely unbalanced, to the point where players aren’t queuing for them anymore. If someone tried queuing lower level bgs, they probably learned pretty quickly that OP toons can basically solo farm entire teams.
If they haven’t done many random bgs from levels 10 to 60, because it’s a terrible experience, why would they suddenly start from 61 to 69?
Are random bgs less unbalanced from 61 to 69? Or are there still broken OP gear/abilities and level 70s party syncing?
I usually have 10k honor by like level 45 of bging+questing.
And low level BGs, while imbalanced, are substantially less imbalanced than throwing someone with 400k into regular BGs at 70. If you need to honor gear at 70, do it in epics, or at least buy the crafted set first.
full set of blues day one just from pvping while leveling and capping honor.
its crazy to me players accept losing while acquiring welfare honor at 70.
its selfish bro.
An ilvl floor. Lets say, for Season 2, would be 411 ilvl.
That’s 13 ilvls below the green AH gear.
Gear below the ilvl would be scaled up.
Grey and missing gear gets a template.
This would not punish players in current purple gear. It would also not force players to complete any tasks that they obviously don’t do anyway. While making them somewhat viable and not dead weight. They would still have to play to farm currency for competitive gear.
It’s either that or slog through the unmitigated mess of low level pvp where hunters and every class can just 1 shot a whole group with a single aoe.
