There are trinkets that I would love to see added to the Lost & Found vendor Rix Xizzix in Booty Bay, specifically Blackhand’s Breath and Devilsaur Eye. Also, the quest reward from An Earnest Proposition which gives you your first piece of T 0.5.
Wait… what vendor? This cant be on ERA no such thing existed on Vanilla so is this SoD?
It’s in Era. Booty Bay. It’s also in SoD.
eewwwwwww… gross.
so basically this is not “era” anymore its some kinda wacky SoM kick down.
May as well address the BG system now even if it does me zero good because then at least I can get games going faster because more people will play.
The vendor has been there for a while, it allows you to re-purchase certain trinkets that were quest rewards that you might not have realized would be useful later in the game.
Hey at least it’s AV weekend!
AV weekend is sadly the only one where players Q up in mass… I want this level of PVP participation every week every day.
1000% agree. They could just ignore faction and load up a BG as soon as enough players are in queue. And eliminate premades.
I both love premades because I like the community but at the same time understand it kills participation; especially when BG populations are low like right now.
Yup its 2 parts… Eliminate “Factions” in terms of BG’s and just fill with anyone, and second when populations are low like now fully disable any format of group Q. BUT when pops are over a certain threshold re-enable Group Q
Couldn’t disagree more. All PvP problems have a PvP solution. Faction identity is a massive part of vanilla. Pre-mades are a big part of community building.
Stop trying to change the game. It has been changed enough already.
No. Do not make vanilla more retail like. Thanks.
Dont care about factions, I mean… for world PVP yea its awesome, but for getting BG Q’s I would rather play with anyone than no one…
because they removed decay.
Maybe you don’t. But I do. And if I do then many others probably do too. Maybe Alliance doesn’t have faction pride. But I guarantee you Horde does.
Lok’tar Ogar!
to be fair its was kinda dead even before that. Been playing on WMC since it opened, not my first character here either.
Back to the original question. Back in the day, a moderator could restore a trinket or important item that was inadvertently or just stupidly sold to a vendor or DE’d. Now the mods won’t do that, and if the important item was lost long ago you can’t restore it using the automated system. That’s why the lost item vendor was placed in Booty Bay. I’m just advocating for a few more items to be added to the vendor’s inventory, like Devilsaur Eye and Blackhand’s breath.
In a perfect world there would be no changes. In that world, a mod could restore my item like they used to back in the day.
I finished ranking a few weeks before the changes were introduced. BG queues weren’t that bad. The issue without decay is now people who don’t normally like PvP don’t ever have to queue WSG or AB if they don’t mind a longer rank. They can just wait to be spoonfed monthly 6 minute AVs. Which means less people filling BGs for those who just like to casually queue up gulch or basin.
The changes they made before the decay nerf was the 500k cap, this was both good and poop at the same time also.
Just bad wholesale. I wasn’t opposed to ranking changes so more people would get interested in vanilla PvP, but these changes did the exact opposite.
Yeah the participation dropped, and when you couple the changed + the way the BG’s reward points for “Fast games = BiS” its no wonder no one plays.
IMO the thing they should have changed was how points are awarded in game, so that long glorious games win or loss are very good gains no matter what. I love long games, they’re BiS for me, but I know that ranking gets in the way of that, and if there was any meta shift needed it was how points are pushed so that players would fight to win rather than just give up for “Ez points”
This is so true - give him Blue robes and we’re set to go
