Thank you for killing another bracket. People just want to play but of course Blizzard logic is to let people turn off xp and go get SL gear and ruin the entire experience for everybody else.
In before : " well turn your xp off and do the same "
Hunters strike again with their OP nonsense.
everyone can do the campain at 48 and players 50+ can partysync down with covenants active.
clicking join bg from level 10 up and doing no other content to build your toon is a you problem.
at 48 in a certain zone it’s possible to get gear over ilvl 100.
No it’s not possible. Unless you turn your XP off, you can not get Shadowlands gear at level 48 and compete in battlegrounds before your turn 50.
The problem is not that XP is turned off. It’s what the scaling does for “Hunters” in this bracket. A level 48 twink rogue or druid or pally or mage…meh. IDk.
It’s these instant cast hunters that are doing 300k or more in every single battleground. That’s why you see 5 or 6 of them. The scaling is off for hunters and that is not a me problem, thats a game design problem.
you sure its sl gear and not gift wrapped exploits?
cant get mad at players for locking xp to gear up. they end up playing more of the game than you since they use pve to gear for pvp. you might think thats silly or a waste of time but whos here crying and whos winning games?
if you don’t like what’s going on in the 40’s you should skip 50 and 51-59.
It is the Shadowlands trademark, entry level vs much higher gear ilvl disparities.
The design team could easily see that entry level players in this bracket would be on a WOD gearing ilvl upon entry.
Once players hit 48 they have access to double+ the item levels as everyone else in the bracket. Plus Covenants.
Thank you.
How many more brackets must players skip before the problem is corrected I wonder ?
50 is a pay to win bracket.
In past eras we would be sent to Hawaii for having gear not intended for the bracket.
Shadowlands, pay for a transfer and they turn a blind eye for the profits made.
See what they did there?
If it smells like Shadowlands there will be disparities.
20s has lots of active Twinks which can be countered by gearing your toons at 20, 25, 27+ which have more talents etc. PVP sets are available from PVP vendors too.
51-59 becomes viable at 55 via Shadowlands crafted pcs, or 56, 57 with cheap and cheerful green BOES.
Everything else is quite nice to gear up and become a viable force fairly early.
all of them if you dont keep your alts ilvl equal or above what BoAs are for your toon. BoA are an average ilvl for your toon and level with you. up to 49 that is. at 50 its a whole new game going from bfa to SL. before sl came out blizzard let players farm elites with ilvl 115 gear. blizz wanted everyone at least 115 going in to the new content. 115 ilvl at level 50.
limping into bgs at 50 in ilvl 68 gear you get from the 50 boost is a joke. blame blizzard for allowing you to be lazy. you cant que for dungeons at 50 with ilvl 68 that should tell you something. instead you jump onto bgs where players actively min/max while leveling.
lol get wrecked.
What’s happening is players are leaving BG’s as soon as they get 2 shot by any hunter . This can not be a good player experience. I’m surprised it has not been looked into for an entire expansion.
Don’t be.
Shadowlands trademark.
it’s not even any diff at 60 marksman hunter 2-3 shot ppl all time even there lol
Double or Triple+ item levels in one single bracket adds to the mayhem.
AFAIK the gift wrap thing was patched months ago
I can’t wait until the new talent trees inevitably buff hunters in leveling BGs for the 6000th time. Imagine not playing a hunter lol. Like why do other classes even exist? They’re just hunter fodder. I guess healers can at least heal the hunters but they should probably just reroll hunter anyway.
Blizz no1 gaming company. PS buff BM hunters again thx <3<3
I’m surprised you haven’t quit by now and found something else to play.
