Why not give alliance a conquest bonus?

But getting AOO is ok ?

Yeah no deal on this. It’d be like someone ragequit and the spot was never refilled.

I’m ok with 10% or 20% extra conquest or whatever. What’s the honor buff? Something like that is ok.

I’m not a fan of AOO, but I do it when it’s up.

I’d prefer if WarMode had no bonus attached to it, or perfectly symmetrical bonuses like it was at the beginning.

I get their reasoning for adding it, but I wish it wasn’t needed.

A regular random bg win gives 8 conquest lol. So laughable not worth queueing.

Tries his best not to swear on this Christian site.

At no point did we need this welfare gear. “Oh you got a 370 glad piece? Cool! I got a 420 agility on use trinket from a WQ cache!”

I actually did get that 420 trinket on my DH from this exact situation. It’s ridiculous to get such a high end item for playing turtle mini-games. What kind of example does that set? How does that make any sense? Why do Allies or any players for that matter need so much welfare?

EDIT: That trinket titanforged 50 levels higher than what it was normally intended to be.

I think this is a bad idea personally.

I get it, i do. I have been mostly Alliance over all my toons that i have, i have gone through the long long losing streaks and it is and can be very painful and exhausting.

The fact of the matter is that the better TEAM always wins. Alliance unfortunately has lost most of the best PvPer’s it ever had due to ridiculously imbalanced (as a whole individually and as a group) racials that you need look no further than just the last AR’s to come out as well as well the Alliance as a faction is just dying due to lack of anything AT ALL good going for it.

Without going too much into detail i don’t think that giving 20 more conq. points or whatever will fix the problem.

People have to learn how to win as a TEAM in a competitive team based game.

Now if you said well i have marks of honor how about some type of conversion for them to some conquest, yea maybe i could see that since they are fairly worthless (can’t even buy last seasons gear anymore i don’t think with them for transmog purposes for some reason) and just pile up eventually.

But no i don’t think that offering 20-50% more conquest would help anything out.

Unfortunately the Alliance as a faction is dying and this is one consequence of that and Blizzard putting everything into the Horde while the Alliance just withers away, really for many many years now but now it is extremely obvious.

Sir, you are alliance, enjoy your fast queues, and just join regular bgs, or do world pvp, or here’s a thought just find a friend to do rated 2s with, you get capped very fast doing 2s, just a suggestion. Just know that if you were horde, and u lost 15 in a row, it would take over 6 hours, because the queues would be north of 10 minutes to get in.

I don’t think that’s true at all, having more players doesn’t mean better lol. I’ve played horde 90% of my time on this game in the last 11 years. It’s MUCH better on Alliance atm, faster queues, pugs kill more bosses more frequently like it’s nothing, it’s so much more friendlier and players are just overall more of a joy to play with.

Actually by definition having more players does mean having more “better” players, unfortunately along with that there will also be more “worse players” as the population that has moved Horde side has both.

We are talking about BG’s so anything with bosses in it isn’t really something that is a part of that unless you are talking exclusively about epic BG’s and i don’t think that is what we are limited to here.

As far as being “much better” Alliance side, i will say that taking a lot of the lemmings and moving them Horde side, a lot of what is left are the hard core Alliance players and ones that want to improve the faction as a higher percentage of the player base within the faction.

I do notice that PvE is better on alliance. For casual PvE at least. Even islands for example, Horde players are usually lazy as hell. There is a pretty stark difference for those.

Give horde more incentive to merc I guess.

I’m on the fence about Alliance PvP. Either we suck horribly or we do alright. Depends on the time of day
