Throwaway twinks

When do you cut out and start over?

I made some and just went to 20 in basically enchanted heirlooms and a few off pieces. I kept a couple to dungeon gear and then run through to 29, but most I deleted once they hit 20 (during their last bg). I don’t have a ton of open spots. I haven’t gone any further than 29 so far, because I’ve been leveling other toons (not sure if I’ll continue though. Not impressed by WoD/Legion/Bfa). Some people stop and gear at every bracket and keep going though.

I tried toss twinks for a very short while. It got old quick because no one else was making them. Ended up just being a leveler farm. snore

I like 39/49/59 so reroll would have happened exiting 59.

You writing a book there, Pentanse? lol

Oh no. These guys with all hierloom, AH gear, and enchants are ruining leveling BGs. Better do something about it blizzard!

Maybe instead of trying to restrict people in BGs they could let the game be the mmorpg that it is. If levelers must level through BGs then increase the exp they get from losing so they don’t cry about geared people ruining games. Do what you do at 120 and have the losers sometimes get a loot box reward too.

Make it worth while to finish a losing match. Currently if one side starts winning alot in say WSG it’s common to see 5+ people on the losing team leave cause it’s not worth thier time. They’d rather take deserter and do something worthwhile instead.

I’ve seen other posters suggesting similar changes. Stop making BGs all about winning or losing. If that means that a losing team will give up and wait then so be it. Better than people hinging the entire worth of the Bg on whether they win or lose.

This wasn’t much of an issue before exp was added to BGs but it’s way passed due imo. You don’t get even close to 50% win rate through leveling BGs.

Cause currently people are obsessing over making leveling BGs as fair as possible cause of the precious exp and loot from winning. Leveling BGs will NEVER be fair and blizzard should stop trying to make them fair. The specs are highly imbalanced and they will never be balanced for leveling. Gear does and should matter. Those who invest in gearing for BGs should get the returns. The hand holding blizzard is doing just to encourage levelers to enter BGs is ridiculous. Templates weren’t amazing but it’s better than segregation. I can’t wait for classic just to get away from this mess.

Book is done.

Classic should be fun for twinks. Can’t wait for warriors to be useful again at 19.

That is until that stupid TBC patch comes along and gets rid of hamstring, and adds disengage for hunters.

Warriors at 19? You didn’t get intercept until 30, if I remember correctly, and Charge couldn’t be used in combat. You’ll be a hunter kite, yo.

Yesssss. Do want. :grin:

Edit: Pig charge and stun gogo.

I did well enough. I forget a lot about those times though.

Can’t wait for the old GY. The new one didn’t fix much. Probably made things worse, being cut off from your own flag.

Maybe you can try a twink “throwing spear” spec. :stuck_out_tongue:

Your allies can help by rooting and slowing opponents. Once you get on them it’s really hard to peel you off cause you can just keep enemies slowed. And while warrior will never run out of rage the enemy will run out of mana to either attack or heal with.

So for long fights a twinked warrior is very valuable even though they have no gap closer until 30. Sure if you are trying to 1v1 a hunter you are toast but that’s not what BGs are about.

Yes, hamstring was good, being one class of two being able to wear mail in the beginning is also a boon. I remember Hunters and Rogues being the kings of the 19 bracket. You weren’t 1v1 -a- hunter, it was three hunters vs -you-. lol

Also, sunder armor, I think you got it that early, miss that skill. Sunder a clothy once = they have zero physical damage reduction. :slight_smile:
