World PvP life as a Rogue

They definitely dont because I wouldve been killed like 20 times over haha

Iā€™m doubting.

Your more than welcome to try it yourself

Once they went to cross realm on pvp servers I gave up trying to help. I couldnā€™t find people who were being camped when I came back on my higher level. It was super frustrating.

Iā€™ve leveled on pvp servers, unless they changed it lowbies always showed up who were stealthed for higher levels.

Well it was definitely changed at some point because I could even do this in Legion and BFA and high levels never saw me and same goes I never saw lower levels in stealth, Hell I want to say this even worked in WoD

wowā€¦That would have been nice years ago. dam

I bet haha

Welcome to retail. Many donā€™t want actual wpvp. they want crap no skill ganks.

See wrath grobb. this happens, but most want more than taking an 80 to shank a level 20. Grobb at times has players have some standards and ethics.

This weekend I saw alliance form up on my grobb layer for a silvermoon raid run. they were killing nearby npcā€™s (that is jsut how that goes, not a rant, its a pvp server lol)ā€¦but not the few lowbies around.

they came for lorā€™themarā€¦not us. 25+ 80ā€™s versus a few level 11 levelers was not their thing.

Grobb with full pvp, and a 50/50 ish balanceā€¦has many players we have some code of ethics.

Like in TBCC. That cenarion circle village quest hub at zanga entry point. its not a coded sanctuary but most followed the agreement we donā€™t shank people there. Once you leave it then, yes, its open season.

In the town? man we all jsut want to turn in quests. No need to be a butthat about it.

I assume you speak from a classic server and thats nice having a server that works together and someone earlier opened my eyes a bit to realize that WPVP used to actually be alot worseā€¦ See I didnt start playing wow until WoD so I never experienced the stuff some people are talking about I had no idea it used to be so bad

Not much to change without total reform of player behavior. Players jumping shards or pulling people from LFG to win or avoid losing a fight will likely never go away, let alone those who get so upset over PvP to engage in post-combat Whisper PvP regardless of the outcome.

Then again, goes both ways because I have encountered some very nasty players from the opposing faction making insults, threats and the like after beating them in WPvP, and also players from the same faction claiming people should be banned for not attacking the opposing faction in WPvP.

Attitudes get pretty bad once competition is involved and it isnā€™t even the fault of the game at that point.

Max level players gank low levels so they get to read threads like this one.

Right, which is why theyre not gonna do anything. I donā€™t think thereā€™s necessarily a problem itā€™s just itā€™s not popular

Did you think I was complaining about being ganked? Iā€™m guessing you didnt read my thread at all lol I was actually trolling the max level players that were ganking, if they were reading this they would be mad asf at me right now lmao they would be like ā€œThats that stupid rogue that kept sapping me!ā€

You know you can do that as a druid too right ?

Yeah I did it as a feral in Shadowlands but surprisingly I didnā€™t witness as much ganking as I have in the past few days xD

Its nothing new, i played on a pvp server for over 10 years

I know its nothing new but I just thought having a discussion with other players on how they think about this mechanic and if it needs to somehow change would be good for me I just wanted to have a discussion and find out how a majority of players feel about low level ganking

I know most people say ā€œJust turn warmode offā€ Like yes that obviously solves the issue but should it solve the issue?

You didnā€™t even read the post, they never got camped.

But sadly OP, Blizzard contradicts themselves a lot. They say disrupting others gameplay and being toxic isnā€™t OK, but it is allowed in PvP and on the forums in some ways. Thereā€™s no penalty, even outside of Warmode for people camping people because they ā€˜willinglyā€™ signed up for it just by being flagged, despite their incentives for warmode, certain materials and WQs that only pop up in Warmode that benefit levelers and fresh max level characters a lot.

You know people used to run WM for the extra xp to lvl up, but now its so fast you dont even need WM , so if they turn it on , on low lvls they deserver to get ganked
