It won’t be chaotic nor unpredictable. The ranker teams from said premades will still top the honor brackets.
P.S. There are plenty of changes already. It’s not going to be Vanilla from 2004-2006.
And we have a winner!
DING DONG
U really lost all credibility here…
Maybe. But very likely not your team. You recommended change is predicated on your assumption that you can out level almost everyone else, get geared in dungeons, and dominate the ladder via WSG premade. You will face competition then of course, but far less than when open world PVP is all you have to work with.
I just don’t see this being a big enough issue though, especially on each server. Maybe on the premades server, but when the server dies who else do they have to blame but themselves?
Also you’re expecting these work at home or college students who can play 16 hours a day to only be on one faction. Both factions are going to have hardcore players.
If it’s phase 2 and some gang of horde or alliance is camping a zone. I’m coming and the hardcore people I bring play just as much.

So what’s your objection again to pushing the honor system to phase 3?
The competition difference between World PvP honor farm and WSG honor farm will be negligible. Why would our premade dominate WSG and not WPvP? We’d be against all the same players.
That’s a ridiculous question. WSG is 10 vs 10. Open world pvp is anyones guess what the odds will be in any particular place at any particular time.
And again u show how much it’s just about your pre made group of Pserver friends… so every server should change because u played on Pservers…
Your group isn’t large enough to assure control or even better than even odds in open world pvp.
All your opinions are flawed… And based on nothing but your own flawed experience… U want the game to revolve around u as it does in your Pserver…
Well, you can blame Blizzard considering they’re the ones forcing rankers to farm honor via only World PvP, when we already have an entire phase dedicated to only WPvP (Phase 1).
Alliance will have the majority of hardcore players, as Alliance has clear advantages over Horde. There will be plenty of servers with ranking teams (probably most), maybe some less hardcore than others. But some servers will have entire guilds of 40-60 people, very dominant guilds. They will, in essence, end up killing their server during Phase 2.
I actually respect your approach here. You guys have really given this some thought. You are trying to maximize the advantage that you think you would gain if you can be one of the first reasonably geared and capable premades. I say, no changes, lets see what happens when the world goes crazy during Phase 2. It is going to be an interesting time.
Half the alliance are there because their toons are pretty. In Phase 3, horde will have the fast bg queues.
I know you clearly believe this, but I’m really not. I know servers are going to die during Phase 2. Definitely not all of them, but quite a few will see their populations decline drastically. I want Classic to succeed, not to push an advantage for myself so I can hit R14 two weeks earlier. It’s not a big deal.
Again… that’s like… your own fault if you kill the server during Phase 2.
You don’t need to kill people every hour of every day. If you’re hardcore you can do it for a few days and pull ahead of people. You don’t need to be doing it constantly.
This is like someone finishing a game super fast and then blaming the company for not making the game long enough. Blizzard has given you the playing field. It’s not their fault if you make everyone else reroll on different servers.

It’s not our fault. People will be honor farming 5-7 days/week. If you want to compete you need to do the same. Blizzard is forcing us into it.
If servers die, they die. People can re-roll or not. If your server dies, you guys are hosed.
World First raiding guilds had to sub people out during the world first race… Limit had to as well… people had to go to work.
You really think that besides your premade there are going to be hundreds of people playing 16 hours a day for 7 days a week?
I think you keep looking at your own situation as the standard. You’re the exception.
No looni, they think they are the exception and they want to milk it early while that remains the case.
