Why do people insist on playing pvp when they are undergeared? Should not be in pvp with less than 200k hp. Had someone yesterday with 30k hp. Then these people say “they are just overgeared” “it’s just the alliance” “it’s just the player” NO IT’S YOU!!! Go do some quests. Have someone craft some gear for you. This game basically hands you decent gear.

Because PvP is already a pointless minigame, its not like it matters.

If classic has shown me anything it’s that PVP is a core element to WoW. They sadly just abused it over the last 3 years ;(. It still is a ton of fun, just the gearing process blows and sucks which forces players to do mythic+ and raiding. So in a sense, yes pvp is a mini game at the moment since there is no real reward. HOWEVER I DO WANNA SAY I did push rated arenas 2’s this expansion! And I got the tabard/title
;D but title is gone now >.>

The issue is that people think its a side mini game that doesent matter and there are people like yourself who actually take pvp seiously or atleast want to win.
Ty blizz for creating a dedicated pvp player base and pve players that just mosie on in thinking nothing matters
I don’t know why they got rid of pvp templates and gear just being small improvements. I get that you want gear to matter, but there shouldn’t be such a time gate before you can get into pvp and actually have fun.

It’s 2 different mindsets. I would never que into a bg with with a gimped toon. I’m there to win and trample the enemy.
I remember when there were dedicated pvp/wpvp guilds. I didn’t start raiding until Legion when vendors were removed. I think the removal of vendors is more coincidental then some may think. Now we are forced into pve the preferred game mode.

No, people need 550-600k hp minimum.
Because its clear pvp participation is only high when it has good gear rewards.
This was caused by removing PvP gear

They are most likely doing it to get the 410 weapon and the 415 cache without having to actually do any real gearing (just like forever).
That’s what happens when they remove pvp vendors. (or don’t have templates)
It’s funny when they think gear scaling will save them
Then a warrior executes them for half their health bar in a single blow, auto attack and another execute they’re dead
‘wtf Blizz nerf warrior too op’

Is gearing even still a thing?
Isn’t it scaled and pointless now?

Got toned down heavily after players abusing scaling for the ‘optimal’ stats.
BiS in BFA S1 was to wear blues in every slot, then highest strength Azerite and weapon. Sometimes you even had empty accessories to lower your item level futhur, or wore old expansion items.
I remember having to go back to SoO to farm gear becuase bis for pvp was to get rings, put the gem in them, and collect socket bonus too, so your item level is way lower but at the same time not losing too many stats
I miss having separate pvp gear and pvp stats.

On one hand im happy it’s nearly nonexistent but on the other there still isnt a way to reliably gear through it…
Im glad im reading this because i thought we were still on scaling of S1 since my hiatus. Explains why my 120 dk felt like he was swinging with a pool noodle when i was pvping with my 350 gear, Because i was…

were you in the AV event? because that bg has all levels in there, 30k seems really low for even a brand new 120.
To be fair, any Unholy dk is still scary because necrotic strike scales in max hp%, and frost has the chill honor talent that bounces.
Fire mages that get gpyro off too, don’t really need big gear for big damage, just you’ll be feeling squishy.
My S2 geared dk still smashes meters in arena and bgs, with a 370 weapon.
How else is a fresh toon supposed to fill the conquest bar ?
Weapon drops are not common especially one at 410 when you are a fresh 120
