I think the PvPers on Alliance (they do exist and are few) are better than a lot of the many PvPers on Horde, yes. In fact I know it. Look at the top arena teams.
Does the average zugzug think this far in advance? Sadly, no.
We are like the 300 against the mindless armies of Persia.
Coulda stopped it here for the same result.
ROFL, good point.
Because the majority of players don’t care. They realize they’re playing an mmoRPG and racials are a vital part of the rpg nature of the game.
And then there’s the few who fixate and obsess over every tiny imbalance. Blizz catered to them for 15 years and look what it did to WoW: it’s now a boring, bland game with no depth or heart. This e-sport mentality has been nothing but cancer for WoW.
Because racials are not the issue.
It’s all player perception, In swtor the empire was the predominate choice and that’s considering racials were 100% cosmetic.
So what you’re saying is, because 9% of the population rerolled, the roughly half of the player base who were just minding their own business being horde should be forced to endure 1-2 hour queues or be forced to change factions. That’s not a very good plan. Nope.
They are balanced. Ignore the meta sheep… They’ll only ruin the game for ya.
I’ll be the one laughing in WotLK with my 2nd vanish.
I am hella inebriated right now. I answered your post badly earlier and I am going to try again. You’re right that most rogues just ROFL their perception. But do you know why they do that? Because it works. It can be hard to counter that crap sometimes because the ability is just painfully good. There’s finesse in the countering of it. That rush in with perception strategy is pretty good for a while.
I think Alliance racials are easily comparable to Horde racials at average skill. And I think at a high level the Alliance racials are obviously better.
Well, the way it appears OG Blizz set it up was:
Alliance: PVP (Active), PVE (Passive)
Horde: PVP (Passive), PVE (Active)
Yes, there’s spill over. But when I look at the abilities…the above is what I conclude.
The best option would have been to disable all racials (yes, even Diplomacy) in BGs and Arenas; World PVP is fair game.
This is an MMO, not fortnight
press x to doubt
Where is this Alliance? The sheer volume of times people abandoned me in fights in BRM, Light’s Hope, or on the Zandalari island is staggering. If you’re not in a PvP guild on Alliance, you’re surrounded by cowards.
One thing I have noticed about Alliance is how garbage their healers are, some of them and I mean a very RARE few are very very good, but most arent even worth having around at all; they could not heal their way past a wet paper bag in PVP.
Horde healers are much better in PVP, and I suspect that healing in general is balanced around how garbage the average alliance healer is, also suspect that Casters were redesigned in TBC to be balanced around the 1200 bracket.
Racials are balanced.
Change my mind.
The Alliance have to premade just to win BGs against Horde pugs in most cases, so I’d say you are incorrect.
because nobody besides a few whiny people on the forums want racials to be changed. the racials are part of the design of tbc, if they change something as big as racials, why not balance classes, make dungeons harder, etc. also the racials are fine how they are.
So are Ally vs Horde only bgs lol Blizzard changed that xD
