Twinks in Dragonflight

Saw that in Wotlk they’re joining exp on and off brackets together so they have more BGs popping. Would love a similar design decision for retail going into Dragonflight!

Not sure that’s a great idea.
XPOff players can literally 1shot/global every person on the enemy team (including a downscaled level 60).

It already ruins the game when one sneaks in by exploiting the queue.

It’d be fun if they lumped exp on/off together as well as merged more brackets so queues are nice and short. Maybe buff experience as well so bg leveling is a more appealing option.

I’d be all for merging queues, even if they slap a 5% damage or stat nerf if you have xp off. I’d love to twink again.

Only way to make it fair is to standardize gearing in PVP brackets and only allow twinking to give you a ~5-10% advantage over a normal player.

Merging them is a terrible idea.

Ques are already popping plenty fast on wrath it would be a twinks dream come true to be able to stomp non twinks again.

And as far as retail goes uh no the 20 bracket is already a complete mess due to them being able to skirt the rules with starter accounts and in the other brackets its still equally as bad cause of party syncing allowing twinks back in would just exacerbate the mess low level pvp is already deeply in

Twinks in Wotlk can play with levelers. That’s why I made the post :smiley:

From what I’ve gathered the level 20 twinks who play with F2P and levelers use Green BoE gear with gem socket procs. I’m not sure why but the Green gear is like 3-4 more item levels above normal dungeon gear at that level.

If they just nerfed it down to where the item level is supposed to be (probably 1 or 2 item levels below dungeon gear) and removed the ability to proc sockets I’m pretty sure the bracket would be fine.

I guess what I’m saying is if they fixed the issues above and merged the bracket it would be really cool :smiley:

Would love a similar design decision for retail going into Dragonflight!

And I would hate it so much! Please no. Separating exp on/off brackets is one of the best things they’ve ever done. You can go play Wotlk if you enjoy one shotting your opponents =)

I don’t have a twink on Wotlk :slight_smile:
I just want to be able to make one on retail

one option is not buying the expansion and playing a geared 60 for the next 2 years in xp on games. same way the 50 bracket works now if you haven’t bought shadowlands.
