Seeing all this fighting and non constructive discussion, people claiming Alliance is dead, Horde PvP too strong,
What are you going to do in Wrath Classic when Alliance Racials overtake Horde in PvP, I really have a hard time believe the lot of you are actually “rerolling” to chase faction meta’s but if you are I assume you’re rerolling again in Wrath and are going to complain the “Alliance” are overpowered?
EMFH is not that good the first half of the expansion. Especially not during seasons 5 and 6. Anybody who has experience on wrath arena servers will tell you that.
Horde have the superior PVE racials in wrath. Most players play this game for the PVE; they will favor horde over alliance.
Streamers and their desperation to earn the equivalent of 14 dollars an hour may pump propaganda about how “OP” human racials are, and that may lead to more rerolls, but the reality is that even in wrath, Horde remain strong.
wait so by nerfing horde racials into the ground and giving the alliance 1 racial comparable to wotf, alliance “overtake” horde? nah, the statement should be “what are you going to do in wrath when racials don’t give horde an overwhelming advantage and put alliance on an even playing field?”
No, it’s not. That is the 1600 Arena Tournament take.
EMFH depends ENTIRELY on the availability of trinkets. No good PVE trinkets = wasted racial. Naxxramas and Ulduar do NOT have trinkets that outweigh the flat resilience bonus AND the orc/troll/ racial.
Resilience is THE most important stat in wrath pvp, as it is the post buffed version which also offers a flat damage reduction. Losing that insignia is a loss for almost all healers. For DPS, if you can get a Grim Toll or perhaps Embrace of the Spider, it may be worth it, but for 90% of people it is NOT.
EMFH shines when things like Solace, Bauble, DBW, and other ridiculous PVE trinkets surface.
Go on any wrath server during season 5 or season 6 and inspect the top warriors/dks and you’ll see they go FULL resilience. They don’t even get a SINGLE pve piece. Because resilience is THAT good. If you don’t have experience with wrath arena you will NOT understand this.
Alliance overall que way less bgs then horde, but at the same time you use the fact that changing que times will some how have a huge impact on a player base that doesnt que. How will allowing horde easier access to que times cause more world pvp? as it stands most horde have to subsidize their horrendous honor per hour from bg que times with world pvp. im seeing a lot of: you cant have better ques and you also cant world pvp because its too harsh on the minority faction. you need to pick your poison.
I’m assuming 68 boosts are going to exist, so if someone has an interest in EMFH for arena, they’ll boost a level 68 Human. Then they’ll realize that there’s no more Alliance left to run raids to get the super trinkets that make EMFH decent because Horde still have the PvE racial edge and classes that can’t be Human are completely gimped compared to their Horde counterparts,
