-10% rewards if you don’t want to PvP.
There are no more PvE servers. Every server was changed to a PvP server, but you can opt out for -10% of your quest rewards.
This is how it is and this is how you should see it.
Despite the fact that I’ve actually been enjoying (more or less) warmode, this is simply the way it is.
Did they nerf pve for warmode? if not then its not -10% for pve since it was not changed
I rather go back to the old system than have warmode.
But whatever…
+10% (bonus) or -10% (penalty) are just 2 sides of the same coin.
“If I choose to play my way and not the harder way that offers more rewards for being harder, I am being punished!”
Oh come on. Warmode is worlds better than the PVP / PVE choice we had before.
It is, but there should still be PvE servers.
I’d rather just play something else then be punished for playing the way I want to just because I don’t like playing in a constant PvP environment.
Oh so we’re going to be forced to PVP? All right - in that case:
+50% to all things for Gnomes
-25% for Blood Elves.
(giggles)
Yeah…but you didn’t tell us that is simply how it is, so how am I to believe you? Heh
There are, you turn off warmode.
I wouldn’t call it a constant pvp environment. I leave Warmode on because I like the occasional times where I meet someone in the wilderness and we basically have an epic duel. I also like repelling enemy raids from my cities and participating in other world pvp clashes. But when they gank squads come, I just turn it off and then point and laugh at them as they fly in circles, all frustrated, because they don’t get to ruin someone else’s gaming experience. Warmode, to me, is actually a pretty great solution to how pvp servers used to work. It lets you avoid ganking pretty effectively while still getting the fun bits, and you can risk maybe being attacked for a little bit of bonus war resources and, what, gold or something?
lol, yep. This is definitely a situation of “stop hitting yourself.”
I think this one is better but it requires improvement
I don’t pvp, I don’t ever world PvP.
But I seriously dont understand why people are so frustrated with War Mode.
I’m looking at 25% bonus. Reroll Alliance.
That’s playing on a PvP server, with an enabled penalty to avoid PvP.
I’m not getting ganked. (Except on Makura day, good lord you Allies camp that area overtime.)
I’m not salty.
I just see it as pretty unfair to penalise people for not PvPing.
I have an Ally, a druid as it so happens.
I find the faction difficult to play because I hate the cities so much, particularly Stormwind, Ironforge, and Boralus. Sylvannas burned your only good city. Now my poor Worgen is homeless.
But I have given it a shot. Take a look at my mount journal - you’ll see that the Ankoan Waveray is there. (And I can ride it on my main, too!)
Warmode should have like an 8 hr (12 hr? 24 hr? 48 hr?) cooldown to inconvenience people that just want to turn it on for quick gains or rewards.
Funny how I haven’t been exploiting the system like this. I’ve been solid warmode since I think February.
If I just wanted the rewards, I would quickly go grab any WQ that grants Pearls, do them, hearth or Org, and turn it right back off again.
But I don’t, because 1) that absolutely is scummy and 2) I am kind of having fun. The warmode community might suck on Alliance but I’ve only come across one awful day-ruiner berating everybody on Horde.
It’s still unfair that there aren’t PvE servers anymore.
Playing Horde with War Mode on is literally identical to playing on a PVE server but keep telling yourself you’re actually PVPing.
How will i live without that bonus 12 gold and 5 resources and one manapearl!
