I sure hope so bro, otherwise we need to aim for TBC.
That’s what I figured when I started this guys grind.
When I was doign the solo AV grind when BGs first came out it seemed like I needed 200k+ a week just to get rank 8+. I was surprised how much I jumped this last week after only playing on the weekend. We’ll see how much I jump after a few more days of it.
not on my server… it was freaking 1.2m 2 weeks ago, last week 950k.

I havent seen our caps yet. Horde are always lower, but at the same time we don’t have to deal with the instant Q crowd that ally does.
No one is throwing games purposely to farm PUGs, and there is only so much honor you can get per hour with the Q times.
I’m doing this too, but I adhere to work more so I only get about 2 matches in a day and I don’t queue over the weekend. 50k or so honor a week, but only rank 6. Not sure how long it’ll last, kind of just hoping I can get rank 8 doing this.

horde is only lower because of queue times, but horde has to play more.
I mean at the end of the day the grind is pretty big for pretty much anyone on a server with a decent same-faction population. Either you’re sitting in queues longer and grinding less honor, or you’re in BGs all the time and grinding more honor.
It’s pretty much the epitome of being stoned or clubbed to death.

Partially true.
We have to play less games though also because of the Q time. I cant imagine its any fun have to farm PUG after PUG to stay in your bracket because of the people taking advantage of a broken system.
Edit:
lol this.
no, alliance have it easy, they can cap in 2 days.
If you are playing 18+ hours for those 2 days sure.
I’m not debating it can be achieved earlier I’m just saying I doubt its really a better experience.
Right now top is 334k… lol
oh it def is… would you rather play 20 hours for 2 days of the week, or 16 hours for 7 days?
It hasn’t been against the terms of the EULA in years.
I mean you queing for AV is the same as the premades you hate and think is unfair. You think AV is fair for Alliance?
So it’s not ok that premades fight and graveyard camp, but it’s ok to que into a BG where you know you won’t lose?

Listen. PvP is broken. It ALL needs to be fixed. Think I like any of this? No. I think we’re all coping with it. It needs to be fixed / tweaked across the board, so we can all enjoy it.
Did I say I enjoyed this? Don’t put any words in my mouth. I actually HATE what is happening, and I’m on the sides of all people who are trying to get PvP cleaned up, and make it playable. I absolutely despise having to log in in the A.M, and log off in the A.M. Get it? I have to sit in queue for about 13 hours a day to get 5-6 games. Like 11am to 3am. I dare anyone to try this and ‘enjoy’ this.
I’m advocating for all of us to enjoy PvP, and to enjoy a fair match. This topic is about Solo Q’s not AV. If it was about AV, I’d be defending the Alliance’s stance.
Please be more careful when insinuating someone’s position.
I mean you dont “have” to do any of that, nor is the gear even worth doing it for. Classic pvp is a joke, it literally means nothing as far as actual “skill” goes, even the titles are jokes and really dont mean much aside from time in your chair.
So why do you think you have to do it?
I enjoy PvP. It’s actually why I sub to WoW. I know realistically I’d be more happy in TBC. I was there in original TBC, and it was seriously lots of fun. I’m so far in to ranking that turning back now is a bad idea. Literally Rank 8 90%. I only need 1 rank 10% to wrap this up.
My account has been inactive since 2010. I resubbed for PvP. I just want some fun matches ya know?
I can’t wait to read all the horde players being upset on the crazy pvp que times for battle grounds come TBC since it’s almost a certainty that the faction ratio is going to go completely lopsided once horde get paladins.

I’m sure the discussion will continue. We can honestly blame this meta style of game play for this serious problem. At least, it seems like that’s the logical thing to point at. People are playing this game a lot different than we used to.
I shared I am connected with The Undead since they are the wild ones, but honestly, if the min/max crowd continues to mess up the ratio, I will see about faction changing my Horde. I’d do that to help with the issue and help bring balance to this place. Afterall, I’m more interested in the health of the game and the community.
Lol on what server can you cap in 2 days lmao, my last two weeks in bracket 1 were 18 hour days 7 days a week.
