My experience over the last week horde has only gotten 1. The fact horde has lost so many players yet we have no larger warmode bonus or get more shards where the numbers of players per faction is even is aggravating. The favoritism of blizzard towards the alliance is ridiculous.

Can we stop dumbing it down to āfavoritismā?
It isnāt. Itās just Blizzard sucking at fixing, designing, and balancing their own game.

I made this guy for that reason. Literally knew I could have a free fully geared toons on alliance so I did. Took like three days to cap everything and Iām now 638 ilvl waiting for my last couple pieces. Alliance is absolutely easy mode. We win almost all our bgs too itās odd. Horde is in a really bad spot. Iāve made so much honor from casually playing in only a few gem slots away from being 100% capped and Iāve been playing this guy for like no time at all. They really do need to do something to compensate for the disparity in play. Playing horde is like playing with half a keyboard and one hand. Itās simply unfair at this point.
Alsoā¦when Iām done with gearing next week Iāll make like 5-10k a day from bloodstones alone. This is something I couldnāt ever even dream of doing on horde. Soā¦yea itās just a better and easier game from top to bottom on alliance itās blatantly obvious if you play both factions youāll probably find it hard to argue. Alliance is catered to hard.
if i had to do that to get honor i would just quit the expansion horde is my family. If i canāt be the faction i love might as well not even play.
No, they need to fix some of the issues with War Modeā¦ First and foremost, fix the sharding. It sucks. There will be shards filled with Horde and little to no Alliance and shards filled with Alliance and little to no Horde. I donāt get why they canāt dynamically merge the shards. Iām trying not to get into it too much because Iāve said this many times in different threads, but i.e your server is apart of a group of servers that youāll typically only see out in world (unless invited by someone else of a different āserver groupā)
For this reason weāll often never see players from some of these other servers and Blizzards makes the problem worse by sharding within those server groups to reduce server lag. (but itās too much)
Haha as much as I would love this, I do think it was a bit overpowered. If anything, give them the interrupt back onto Arcane Torrent, not the silence.
On a separate note, the most popular played race in PvP is Night Elf because of their racial abilityā¦ Shadow Meld is OP honestly, with the buffs theyāre doing to other racials maybe weāll see more diversity, but they could stand to nerf Shadow Meld a bit. Not completely gut it, but just a small nerf or rework.

Maybe you should idk, encourage more Horde to flag up.
Itās not the Allianceās fault you guys are too scared to actually leave Dornogal before 4am.

maybe if blizzard did not screw hordes plot over multiple expansions hence we lose every story plot people would of continued to play horde.
Is flying around getting crates more conq then just queuing 2ās? Seems like that canāt be the case
they count for your weekly as well. like 20 shards and some conquest the point is with how unbalance sharding is making it these supplies might as well just be called alliance supplies as they are complete garbage trying to get as horde atm. Alliance out number or 5-1 on a shard.
They need to balance the races. Horde used to have more players, then they nerfed Orc, now Alliance has more players because everyone is Nelf. If they just balanced the races properly, we would have a reasonably even distribution.
Wait this isnāt just an OCE thing? I had no idea the Alliance/Horse imbalance was global.
Surely the better Nelf racials arenāt that big of a draw?
According to the race representation on the drustvar website there are about as many night elves above 1800+ as all the horde races COMBINED. The stat gets even more skewed as ratings go higher.
Nightelves are the best race by a long shot and pvpers know it.

Generally no, but you get 60 conq, 150 honor, and 50 bloody tokens for each. Its very efficient on a new character where all of those currencies are in play. It also has zero gear requirement to participate in, so in that sense, its probably the best way to gear a fresh toon. you can zone hop to increase the number that youāre getting as well.
I enjoy it b/c its super chill. Wouldnt care if horde could also loot the crate just to bring more of them into warmode doing stuff. none of this matters that much anyway. the value of fighting over the crate is zero to me.

The NA servers have alternated back and forth over the years, but now that there are cross faction teams, its a bit different. Nelf racial has been just good as it is right now for quite a while, but it was played a lot less than it is atm since we were horde dom, and you kind of needed to be where the players were at
This sounds like the players are having alliance favoritism, not Blizzardā¦
You will never be able to get a fair split.
Get a group of friends and you can take every crate.
whatās the trick to this? Trying to earn 6k conquest via rated games is rough while being undergeared.
the āargumentā is that blizz is inducing the problem with the night elf racial, even though i wouldnt be surprised if the racial is identical to whatever it was back in WoD. Has it even been changed once since it was reworked from the vanilla version?
There may be a particular way to optimize it with timers / weak auras, but ive never cared to do that. its ~ 20 minutes per zone to respawn though. My approach is to just herb / mine each zone until the thing spawns, and then move to the next. 99.9% of the time, the other zones are more likely to spawn sooner than the zone that just got a crate.
