players are now just using the xpoff hack in 20-30 bgs and I grow tired of playing the game the way its suppose to be played and getting one shot by hunters and their xpoff nonsense.
Not sure why I’m even posting. Small company with zero cares about player gaming experience.
I’m gonna say a hot take… xpoff should be allowed to join any queue they want. The only problem are xpoff premades. I’m totally fine with one or two xpoff players in a BG (especially since they usually balance each other out). I’m also totally fine with premades. People should be allowed to run with their clan, and the push against organized PvP in some of these forums is really weird to me.
However, there does need to be a line. If someone is trying to run a premade with xpoff players, they should be doing wargames. I’d bet a lot of the xpoff community would agree with this as well… except for MM hunters and other fotm rerollers lol
a minimum ilevel requirement for bgs would guarantee players cant do the least amount of effort if they want some type of reward. it would also create a need for more crafted boes on the AH giving a boost to the local wow economy.
I beefed up a destruction lock a few days ago and have found I’m doing very well.
Got the gear via engineering, cloth recipes and boa gear to fill in the blanks.
Gear is enchanted and gems in the available sockets.
This gear should provide me with some advantage in the bracket I’m in.
It doesnt
Xpoff players are literally one and two shotting my teammates who are leveling and gearing just as I am.
Please explain to me how something you have to be sneaky about ( join xpoff group and enter bg when it pops ) is fair to any other player who is playing by the rules.
If you play xpoff in the leveling bracket, you are basically a bag of dog crap who can’t cut it with skill alone and need the extra advantage to play the game.
Killing an enemy in one second is not skill and I wonder how they find playing enjoyable at all.
Some of the gear you got is literally near BiS from the sounds of it (or at least completely viable in the xpoff community).
Simply sounds like you’re just running into fotm rerollers, which are always infinitely worse anyone playing a mid tier xpoff spec. EDIT: I should add a fotm spec even without xpoff gear, would be doing the same thing if xpoff didn’t exist. You can thank the balancing for that
Now, if you are getting 2 shot by players who aren’t playing fotm specs, then it’s probably a skill issue. Destro lock can be a punishing spec at low levels due to the slow nature of it
Either way, it’s clear you aren’t considering anything past “xpoff bad” lol
Cringe.
Survival hunter going 33-0 with xpoff is a “skill issue”
I’m done for today. Thank Jeff.
Lol, so you’re facing a survival hunter? I guess you chose to ignore the biggest part of my response
" Simply sounds like you’re just running into fotm rerollers, which are always infinitely worse anyone playing a mid tier xpoff spec. EDIT: I should add a fotm spec even without xpoff gear, would be doing the same thing if xpoff didn’t exist. You can thank the balancing for that"
I could pick up a surv hunter put heirlooms with some enchants on em and still go 20-0 in a BG… so thank you for confirming that the bigger problem is the lack of balancing with absurdly OP specs
Must be a you problem. I play xp on in the xp on bracket and one shot people all the time.
Just put minimal effort into gearing for pvp and you’ll be fine.
It can be.
It’s funny.
It’s obvious you lack reading skills so your opinion on this topic is void.
Edit: I looked at your gear. It’s impressive. Don’t tell me me you went through all the effort of getting that really good gear and play with XP on.
Yep got it all with xp on as well. Minimum 4 hour investment over 2 weeks
Theres nothing to address outside of them allowing xpoff players to queue into the xpon bracket again. Idk why blizzard is so insistent on punishing people for getting the best gear for their bracket and playing with it.
Cool. If it’s legit and no problem, I’ll just make a xpoff group and play all night.
Its exactly as the OP stated. Its not open to everyone to use. If Blizzard liked twinks and wanted them in the normal Battlegrounds they wouldn’t have separated the queues.
But most twinks dont want to face other twinks they want to stomp and so they exploit to minimise XP to get into normal BGs, then you get the premade people doing this as a group of XP Xploiting twinks and you think any other team has a remote chance ? Thats the issue.
They are exploiting plain and simple. How much of a small fragile ego do you need to have to resort to all that because your pvp abilities are mediocre at best.
IMO research into every exploit report and check the logs, if found to be exploiting, 21 day ban. That would stop them pretty fast.
It’s the same at max level too with geared vs undergeared. Idk why blizz cares more about the low level experience than the max level experience.
Funny and a bit sad how a company with some of the best Anti-cheat software in it’s games can allow cheating to run rampantly in other forms
I hear what your saying about max level PVP and the gear gap is atrocious and hopefully DF will resolve that.
However with the low level BGs, your having people break TOS and exploiting to avoid XP OFF BGs. Getting the best gear for your level in 10-19 bracket and then naturally levelling out of it there isnt an issue. But exploiting so you can be in the bracket for 500 wins instead of 5 is the issue I believe the OP is talking about.
With the 20 FTP and 29 twink EXP OFF communities combined the Queue times for a game shouldnt be an issue so why do they need to XP Exploit into normal games?
Because they are average at pvp, they need to exploit and if they were to face other twinks their fragile lil egos get shattered like they rightfully should.
I can only assume they haven’t fixed it because these xpoff players spend real money via a token to get themselves geared out the who ha. So they can have an advantage for a very very long time.
Like I said above, if you xpoff into XP on BG’s, you’re scum.
Look man ive seen your multiple threads on the forums complaining about twinks. Have your leveled engineering on your alts for spinal healing injectors? Maybe leveled your own jewelcrafter ?
Bottom line if you spent as much time gearing your alts as you do complaining on the forums about twinks exploting then those twinks wouldnt be much of a problem for you to handle.
Its a game based around gear , try a little more complain a little less
TL;DR - If you just put more effort into the game then you wouldn’t die in 1 shot by the people who are breaking the rules. Instead, you would die in 3 shots, and wouldn’t you rather die in 3 shots op?
XP off is separated, exploiting to get into the xp on bracket is a bannable offense. I don’t know why everyone in the forum is so quick to throw shade at everyone who uses any other kind of exploit but will jump on anyone stating that a twink is doing it. Gearing your toon is one thing, but to tell a player to spend hours and gold grinding a past expansions profession to compete with someone who is breaking the rules is terrible advice.
