Stop backcapping during av weekend

Yes it’s way more balanced than classic was.

The horde cave more specifically it being used as the best graveyard in the game was just too good to really overcome in a pug VS pug.

The way i see it now. The map is relatively balanced. It’s impossible to be perfectly. But not awful. I’m still curious in other people’s opinion, what makes alliance so much better in AV.

Nothing, it’s just better honor/exp per hour for both sides to race and in that scenario horde ends up with high loss rate. With the changes in TBC particularly adding reinforcements the map is indeed relatively balanced.

And yeah given how big the map is it’ll never really be balanced unless they just mirror the sides. Don’t know why blizzard refuses to just randomize the starting locations though, any pretense of maintaining horde vs alliance aesthetic went out the window with same faction BG’s anyways.

The map is close enough to balanced now to not matter; it really comes down to how both sides are playing.

Honestly I would be happy if the npc defenders in the big bases were actually useful. Them just dropping pursuit after you are in the base is dumb. At least give them a good dismount ability. It should require a team effort to assault the enemy strong hold, but really one person can cap the base towers/bunkers by themselves because the npc’s are poorly programmed for a bg
