Twinks still a HUGE problem

If it is theoretically happening in large numbers, that just demonstrates severe product malfunction IMO.
Avatars have been created through the provided means, and they are now in an unusable state.

This is a perfect opportunity for a compromise which would undoubtedly correct several issues.

Eh, I don’t blame people for not wanting to play max level. I am off and on with wanting to which is why sometimes I level an alt and sometimes play 120. Same thing happened in wod for me. Legion, I played max level BGs every single night (minus a day here or there) Plus, who’s to say they don’t play both?

If most of them would spend half the time working on their mains as they do a character a fraction of it’s level, they probably could really succeed.

I’m sure some legit do not like max level however, it’s the ones that use that reason but only just reached that milestone and POSSIBLY had a small taste of it and threw in the towel that have questionable motives.

Some people like helping their fellow faction members level through battlegrounds as well. I get 2-3 whispers a game typically in the 110 bracket thanking me, or telling me how well I did, or asking for advice, or asking how what I’m doing is possible. It brings out a lot of interesting people to talk to. People learning how to Merc Mode, finding out about Saltwaters and how to purchase them, gearing strategies, ect.

It also brings the hate messages, which if you don’t take too seriously can be fun to get as well.

Hope you are still in the 110 group when I get there on my Rouge . It’s gonna be awesome being on the other side of a beat down for once :joy:

This is a good point to it that is overlooked as well.

I really hate when people say this like it isn’t like this in every facet of the game. Generally speaking, skill is less necessary when you outgear anything - PvP or PvE. Kind of one of those things about MMOs.

I think he was more referring to that (prior to separation) most of your competition were casual levelers who were casually geared. Even horrible players can succeed engaging in the playstyle. About 3 years ago, a guy who was in our guild played twinks. He admitted that he was absolutely horrible at PVP but could kill people on his twink while watching netflix at the same time.

If I misread Erelir, I apologize.

Yeah, really have to disagree with that. I’ve completely shut down so many bad twinks ( as a leveler with enchanted BoAs ). Outside of the atrocity that was 111-119 twinking I really haven’t seen an awful twink do well.

I made sure to say “can” succeed, not “will.” There are few guarantees in this game. Even vague rules that say “you can be banned” but that does not mean you will.

It’s quite fun too. Extra points if they’re the same class. Extra, extra points if I’m healing while jacking them up.

Difference being, twinks were generally beset on all sides by players with worse gear. Geared players at end game have much more competition.

Right, thank you.

Going by the non-stop threads by ‘the gang’ you’d figure 90% of teams were all twinks pummeling on the two levelers on each team. Regardless, the ‘your competition’ isn’t a thing, I’ve said several times I haven’t twinked since MoP launched.

I did run into my first pair of twinks since the separation today, SPriest with 325ilvl and some Prot Paladin ( that I didn’t armory ) running around with 130k HP. Managed to kill the Paladin solo ( and knock him into the abyss once :smiley: ) but I spent a lot of time dispelling/running from the SPriest.

With the warrior, he is only unstoppable on a flag map, cause he can literally take 6 ppl on his own since his damage and healing are ridiculous. Ive noticed some classes are really strong though at each bracket. There is a difference between that and exploiting to get ur twink into a game.

It sounds like the teams that Warrior is facing is bad, objectivity speaking. One player will die if focused fired.

Maybe…:open_mouth: he plays at both levels.

I know, it goes against the mafic every twink is bad. But that’s unpossible, right?

Did I say he was bad ?..perhaps you should read the thread before getting your shots in.

You must be complimenting him. :roll_eyes:

I could take that as a compliment
