Why is it "impossible" for them to give us AV 1.5?

[Steiner-pagle]

IIRC, the rationale behind the choice of 1.12 AV was subjective, and it was based on Blizzard’s opinion of the quality of gameplay. I don’t think they suggested that it was impossible, just unpalatable.

It gives us several early improvements to the BG that we’re glad to have in place. Early on in AV, there were too many NPCs and they were too hard to kill. By 1.12, many had been removed and NPC health was brought down to a reasonable level. Turning in armor scraps is an encouraged, supportive activity by this point. Many capture points (mostly graveyards) had been moved away from their initial placements to gain better balance across the map. Korak the Bloodrager was removed, and killing opposing players no longer drops items like Dwarf Spines, Orc Teeth, or Human Bone Chips. Gross.
