Yes or no, and why?

Yes, it was much easier to find people to play with. I remember doing yolo LFG 3s up to 2.1k just for fun. All my pvp friends quit this season months ago.

Yes. Vers corruption and C&S Major made CC way more tolerable, and didn’t restrict me to one play style.
Truthfully, I havent had fun in this game since MOP Season 1 second wind was removed from arms warrior. No idea why it was removed either.

Definitely not so far. Then again, I just started. Maybe it will be different when I am better geared, idk.
As bad as corruptions were last year, I could still play undergeared characters in the lower brackets and get enough wins to progress. It was still faster to do mythic+, but it wasn’t absolutely necessary until 1500 or so. Not so much this season. I’m very disappointed with the honor gear progression. I will now be going into mythic+ for gear and probably will only use conquest gear for trinket bonus and to optimize my stats/fill out odds and ends. The vendors have turned out to be a big disappointment.
The versatility bonus just doesn’t even things out like resil, or whatever mysterious gear fixing they did last year. WoD was fine, Legion was my favorite. I don’t know how or why they manage to break something that seems so simple.
TLDR- I need PvE gear to get top end PvP gear. So what was the point?
This. I can’t remember a worse meta. None of the comps my friends and I played for a long time are viable. I wanted to play Lock so badly, capped at 2200 even though I’ve been 2500+ 8+ seasons but it’s so toxic to play and unrewarding. Ended up getting 2400 on my Shaman as Ele and Enhance by abusing broken mechanics, pop all CDs then run like puspus. Retail is going to be miserable the rest of the expansion. Anything that is good is just toxic. World of System Craft that rewards toxic playstyle.
Myself and 7 friends quit. We’re playing TBC now, it feels so much better.
arms war still has second wind 4head

All I remember from BC was rogue mace stuns…
honestly yeah. dont get me wrong, i hated BFA just as much as every1 else.
but man… i think essences r better than covenants. i could change up my essences and switch up my playstyle anytime i wanted. with covenants it gets kind of repetitive and it sucks you get punished for wanting to customize your characters playstyle
i liked the world pvp quests. those were always super fun to do. i had a boat load of fun with my homies doing those call to arms quests while we would wait for our BG Q to pop.
gearing alts was still a pain but u could spam +10 mythics as soon as u ding, because they were so easy. yeah it was boring but u could have a really geared toon in a week. it sure beats getting stomped out for weeks in current gearing system.
that being said, i think azerite gear was one of the dumbest things of all frikken time. god i hated azerite gear so much.
Yeah I was having way more fun a year ago. I wasn’t subbed to WoW back then. And I sure as hell wasn’t wasting my time on video game forums.

Unless you came in late, played resto sham which could only really play with cc but you couldn’t get it because nobody did the old raid anymore.
I assure you essences were not better. Both are bad. I definitely wasn’t having more fun a year ago because tbc wasn’t out yet lol.
well i mean… thats ur opinion dawg.
i liked essences more than covenants.
i liked being able to change playstyles and excperiment without being punished
its fine if u dont share the same opinion tho.

Yes, I put up with a lot of BS designs/system over the years but BFA push me over the edge forciing me to be a classic Andy. I didn’t like classic that much initially but bfa made me appreciate it more.
No. 8.3 was my least favorite patch of all time until it was somehow followed up by an even bigger nightmare lol.
You would often hear me say “how is this game so bad”. Now Im just used to it
No, BFA S4 was horrendous. I still have nightmares of back peddling DH’s cleaving me with Gushing Wound by simply using mobility skills, and Sherman-Tank Destro locks lobbing snot at me in the middle of the map being un-killable until 60-70% damp.
SL sucks balls, but least I lose quickly for the most part rather than a death by one-thousand cuts deep damp playstyle. Also, I’m ecstatic that I don’t have to do M+ for gear.

Some of the trinkets in bfa s4 I think were pretty good (not spite), The void portal one was pretty good, post nerf maley was pretty good, even having trinket options from pve to switch out was at least a little better with things like voodo totem and claw, mechagon red card, sucks ya had to pve for them but at least you could swap out trinkets more than SL as a healer, that part of bfa was a little fun.
Right now as a healer its pretty much BM and Trinket every game.
