Ok Renethal, you have officially bored me to death. Chug a Red Bull next time to help your few brain cells respond within a reasonable time frame.
I have two Death Knights, one on each faction. And all three mage tower appearances for the artifact. The first has been an alt since Wrath day 1. Even if I hadn’t ever played a DK in my life, the joke was still pretty good.
This might be hard for you to believe, but I’ve lost a lot of interest in this and you are showing some real insecurity with your attachment to me posting back. You are counting the actual minutes between my responses which is not only sad, but weird. Between reading other threads and being busy, I really don’t care about you or your creepy reliance on arguing. This would be a different story if you had any kind of notable achievements, or rating, or anything other than “I battlegrounds a lot.”
If I stopped posting altogether, and you “declared victory” it would probably be the first Horde you beat in a while. You responded to your own post because I wouldn’t; You are desperate for attention dude. Forget all of the previous conversation we have had, I am here if you need to talk.
Words of gold!
Smells like bait
Why does the guild faction who gets world first matter to you? If you’re pugging it really doesn’t matter what faction you’re on, especially if you have a guild or group to play with.
At this point the factions are so unbalanced that nothing will ever been done about it just because there aren’t enough Alliance anymore for Blizzard to care about our complaints about it. And there’s infinitely more Horde who just hop in and be like “no it’s fine shut up”.
Also if you’re still playing Alliance at this point you’ve probably just decided you don’t care as much about raiding/M+ because the community is smaller and it’s way easier to find groups for both of those activities if you just switch to Horde. You’ve pretty much accepted it in favor of playing the faction you want.
There is no distinct aspect of the game that gives the Horde a clear advantage. Racials are race specific, not fraction specific. Orcs, as an example, have great racials, but then so do Gnomes, and currently Worgen are popular in the Maw. But there is a different reason that players go horde.
Because of people like the OP. People that swear, whether for good or ill, that Horde is full of awesomesauce, and you instantly rise in power and capability and attraction to the opposite sex when you play horde. And most of the players under the physical/emotional age of 15 latch onto this like a good cheeseburger.
There are just as many bad racials on the horde side as good ones, and it entirely depends on how you play the game, and what content you choose to devour. I can only tell you why I chose to play horde on one of my servers (for reference, My main server is 100% alliance, and has been since vanilla). That is because certain expansions simply had better storylines on the horde side.
This changes depending on the expansion, but that’s it. There is no racial motivation, or some distinct advantage they have. I partially wonder if the OP is purposefully playing the devils advocate to try and convince people to go Horde. Doesn’t matter either way, I have absolutely no desire to play horde outside of a few story motivations.
There are more Horde players that raid and do M+, that’s just a fact. If you play both factions it’s really obvious how much easier it is to find groups for both of those things. Raiding and M+ still exist on Alliance, but there are just more people doing those things in general Horde side.
i dont understand any of yalls problem
i have never had a problem raiding on alliance for the past 16 years.
No theres more Horde at max level, overall population includes level 10 alts. Warmode last expansion was 10-1 Horde to Alliance.
As for devs cant balance it, its as easy as buffing Alliance racials but for whatever reason, bias or being afraid of Horde reaction they have refused to do so for 5+ expansions.
A tiny buff in the form of weekly pvp quest for Alliance is basically throwing them a bone while Hordes eating a Christmas feast, it changes nothing. It doesn’t undo 10 years of Horde advantage.
I’m talking specifically mostly about PUGs. There’s always just more PUGs going on Horde than Alliance. Alliance raiding guilds still exist and it’s not like it’s impossible to raid Alliance side, but if you just wanna PUG a raid or M+ real quick, you’re gonna have an easier time finding a group if you’re Horde.
You are missing the point, its not even about Shadowlands. Horde have had 10+ years of better racials, you dont just fix that by making Ally “even” with Horde, the damage has already been done.
I’d say it’s pretty good so far, I’m actively playing bgs and Alliance wins most of them, so the pvp community is definitely alive and balanced.
As for PvE, horde is probably still superior for recruiting for high end mythic raid content, but if you’re normal/heroic raid level, alliance is just fine.
Blizzard has opted to encourage obscene Zerg tactics to give alliance some glory for reset day, and the day after.
Then horde dominates again because we are frankly better.
belf silence? Bro when was the last time you played this game? Holy crap lmfao
Yep Ion and Blizzard employee’s play hordes.
the only way to balance it and be fair about it is to just merge the factions at this point. the racial rebalancing fix has been out of the window for years now.
i feel like we’re heading to that point anyway.
Frankly not better they have Ion and Blizzard behind them. Yes that makes them stronger with all the advantages. Never used to be like this once. Game has done it’s time and is now at the end of its rope.
What you are saying is that in order to boost PVP participation, they need to make Alliance overpowered in PVE so that the top players like raiding guilds all shift over to “balance it out.” That isn’t going to work out how you think it would.
And it has been stated that Alliance has some good racials. Diplomacy is amazing for new content, Shadowmeld is top tier for M+, Stoneform is going to shine in Castle Nathria and is a good all-around talent. I don’t know much about Mechagnomes but I have read that they have good racials.
What kind of boosts are you calling for, exactly?
If you guys did as much pvping as you did complaining, you’d see that pvp is perfectly balanced.
Alliance stomps bgs last 10 days, with around 60-75% win ratio for me.
Maybe I’m just lucky with good groups, but we sure as hell don’t lose “all bgs” as some complainers keep saying.
