The old pvp ranking system needs tweaks

Opinions!!

Okay, Iā€™ll take the full PvP set vs. you somehow fully gearing yourself out through raids over the course of several months. ā€œEasierā€?? Completely debatableā€¦ the gear is good and thatā€™s an undeniable fact.

Sure, it is good, but it will take you several months to get to 14 anyway. If you ever get there. It is definitely easier to show up and do some dps rotations and roll for gear a few times a week than getting to 13 or 14.

Iā€™m not talking about the rank 14 gearā€¦ the blue set is good, rank 14 is a pipe dream that would require welfare and a poopsock.

Blue gear is alright. I am pretty sure it is easily surpassed by BWL gear though, even the updated versions. It is better than nothing if you donā€™t want to raid, I suppose.

Competing with 8+ mages and 6+ warlocks for BWL gear is going to take a LONG time to fully gear your toon out. Three Molten Cores in and my guild has seen almost no gear, no mage blades, no staff of dominanceā€¦ two brutality blades and a binding though.

For a hunter it might be easier to gear out though.

Hence, why I am not playing a mage.

You also have the benefit of having one of the best tier 1 sets in the game

Hunter gets weaker the more geared everyone else gets (as raids go on), sadly.

Yes but you will be able to compete, and your role is necessary.

There is nothing wrong with the pvp system, except all the casual pvpers who feel entitled to the highest ranks. Rank 10+ is supposed to be hard because only a small percentage are supposed to attain it. Just like high end raiding you must eat, sleep, and breath pvp, with no life outside the game to reach the top.

You are wrong.

You forgot the part where you give a bunch of your friends your account info to no life the game harder than the other people trying to no life the game.

If blizzard wants to the stop acct sharing they can, their ability and experience of dealing with botters also has 15 yrs of experience. I hope one of their top priorities for classic pvp will be to stop botters and acct sharing.

There is nothing wrong with the PvP system in classic.

Donā€™t worry about it, problem solved.

Yeah Iā€™m sure. Just like theyā€™ve stopped the gold sellers. Give me a break. How about not using game mechanics that have already been established to actively reward account sharing and other ToS abuse, to the immense detriment of other players, due to their curved performance?

Dunno if this is your main or if you have not updated your character modelā€¦but if you are only lvl 31 right nowā€“I donā€™t see you having the time nor drive to get Rank 14.

Do a quick /who for the level 60ā€™s on your serverā€¦THOSE people are the ones who will be getting it.

And you arenā€™t just obtaining the rank thru HKā€™s and honor, if I am not mistakenā€“you are competing with OTHERS and trying to outrank them. And if that premise is right, than itā€™s really based on how much OTHERS are willing to dump into the systemā€¦

You are not 60 eitherā€¦

The point is the system is entirely flawed.
