Twinks are now just leaving BGs early

By doing dungeons, quests, and battlegrounds to gear

28 and still missing almost half your gear

Yes, as no trinkets, shoulders, neckpieces, or helmets have dropped from dungeons, bgs, or been from any completed quests. This is leveling gear.

Do you have professions? Even crafted gear is better than empty slots. An enchant or two, some food, pots… every little bit helps.

Kul’tiran druids are probably the best for that.

might have to do this when I get them unlocked

[Killyyx-barthilas (Killyyx)]

Don’t worry about it they’ll get sick of deserter eventually. Just feel sorry for them, it shows only everyone they only twinked to farm defenseless noobs, like we were all saying.

[Pípíkaula-proudmoore]

Hey Juga, I understand you are probably one of the more reasonable people here.

I think to a certain extent some people are conflating “twinking” with equipping heirloom gear. I do not. Heirloom gear is fine as most people wear some at lower levels, though I truly feel sorry for brand new players who essentially don’t have the means to get them. That said, I don’t believe there are many brand new players at all, which is not good; but I digress. Actual twinks (no quotes) will go out of their way to hunt down and procure the very best item/enchant/boost for the slot.

I’m NOT impressed by the twinks I’m suddenly seeing on the forums displaying exactly why the majority of regular players despise twinks. However, I feel some sympathy for “normal human being” twink players who simply want manageable queues.

Someone made a thread earlier titled “We have only ourselves to blame.” I think the twink community should indeed consider that carefully, as that original poster advised. Everyone wants to have fun in the game. When and why is it - or isn’t it - OK for your fun to come at the expense of others’?

Reading about this mess is tempting me to twink as some unkillable class and flagrun WSGs,

You are 14 years late to the party.
Spec will not make up for skill.

If i were to pass the flag before leaving it would :3c

Professions at my level don’t give those things either, except maybe something like Brilliant neckpiece; but that’s a lot of mining. I’d be out leveling the items I can make by the time I can craft them either which way. Which is why it’s better just to keep leveling and not worry about a twink that thinks anyone lesser geared than them shouldn’t be competing but then also mostly wants to face people in lesser gear in BGs. Hence why twinks are turning xp on to continue doing so instead of facing each other instead.

Reading about this mess is tempting me to twink as some unkillable class and flagrun WSGs, avoiding killing enemies and capping the flags before the other twinks can leave. Kinda like Demon Hunters with demons.

How about just play more epic BGs and WG with us normal people.

[Darelin-darkspear (Darelin)]

Gotta say all this uproar on both sides is pretty comical.

[Fræya-sargeras]

No, it wont. Blizzard listens. They wont cowtow to the twinks that just want to roflstomp levelers. Youll see. Im betting on xp to enter as the fix.

[Tsataga-whisperwind (Tsataga)]

Normal people and Epics dont mesh Pipi.

I’m pretty normal and you’ve seen me in epics being terrible, so…

[Chroesire-bleeding-hollow (Chroesire)]

That might be fine if gear prices weren’t insane. Good BoE items can easily run in excess of 5k gold which piles up fast going through each bracket.

If there is so many why cant you have your own que system to play against other twinks? You dont like competition? So is there so few of you that youre not a community or is it you dont like competition? Which is it?

I’m half-convinced it’s like those resorts rich folk go to and pay to “hunt” half-tranquilized captive animals.

It doesn’t, but you can’t deny that rolling FotM is a huge part of twinking. There’s always some class that’s far more powerful than it has any right to be.

[Erelir-bleeding-hollow (Erelir)]

But theres not enough for a bg pop? what community? Your non competition community?

Exactly. There’s so few of them that they can’t get an xp-off queue to pop but they’re somehow going to lead a revolution by leaving battlegrounds four minutes into them.

If there are so few, why was there such crying to have them removed? I thought they were everywhere, breaking the game, ruining every BG? Which is it?

They weren’t present in every BG instance, they just ruined the instances they were in for the players around them. Keep up with the conversation.

[Kangmurloc-dark-iron]

I had to laugh.

[Radroit-anvilmar]

Say the people who want to be unbeatable, then throw tantrums like no other when that’s taken away

That’s somewhat more direct than I might say it, but I agree.

[Mup-malganis]

Roll a allied race and the BOEs they give you are good up to 29. Greens are way worse this patch than they were pre-8.1.5, and are far behind dungeon gear. Greens were strong last week, you want those dungeon blues now—free btw. Standing by if you drop the excuses

That’s right! I forgot you could do as many dungeons as you want for any bracket without leveling out of that bracket and still being ‘undergeared’ to a twink.

[anon17946669]

Lol it’s just sad tempertantrum behavior by people who only wanted to stomp levelers. I have a twink too and yeah it sucks now I can’t use it but really, if you’re that afraid of playing at max level or against people near your gear level might be a GIT GUD situation.

[Radroit-anvilmar]

Give it a month, they’ll all be gone.

I agree. Unfortunate behavior, but not likely to last long.

[Mup-malganis]

i’m replying to someone who said he was going to twink–meaning he would intend to stop xp for a minute to gear up.
