WoW Classic 1.13.3 Patch Notes

True- though from the intent of the question it didn’t seem to be ‘will I get xp and level out of a twink bracket’ but more a ‘can I do this as an alternative to questing’. Naturally, a twink just can’t turn in tokens.

And- you can as mentioned gain AV xp, albeit often slow.

Yeah I want to play with my good friend lol. Idc about balance.

Extremely disappointed, tbh.

It’s the lazy way out that destroys any possible attempt at a feeling of community in battlegrounds. You could have at least done battlegroups, but no, I guess you’re going to throw every single WoW Classic player into a single pool because you’re (not you Kaivax, I’m talking to whoever was in charge of this decision) unwilling to commit the resources necessary to move it away from the Retail approach to BGs.

It doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to know what they are referring to.

Can we please know if this means Oceanic realms will stay seperate from the US realms?

I’m almost certain that I speak for everyone that no one enjoys being ported half way around the world to another server to play on Ping that is 10 times higher than their world server is.

As a rogue (and other melee classes for that matter) it causes so much frustration, and completely changes the way the game plays.

fake news, this didn’t happen that much at all especially due to the restrictions.

That’s kind of disappointing. That’s too large of a pool of players and removes battlegroup identity that was there in past. You’re rarely going to run into same players if it’s your entire region. At least with battle groups you got to know your enemies names.

How does one become a rocket surgeon? “OO no it’s not gonna make it, everyone step back. CLEAR!! Don’t you do this to me”

There’s what, 39 servers for classic? Didn’t battlegroups in vanilla have somewhere between 10-20 servers? I suspect they won’t have US East and West in the same battlegroups, for example, so it seems to me it won’t be that much different from vanilla days.

My guess is they will also be adding PVP and PVE servers into the same battlegrounds. Which I was not looking forward to at all. I feel in the long run all PVP servers will slowly become Horde dominant and PVE servers Alliance. Making every server pretty much PVE. I guess their reasoning is faster Queue times for everyone with a dead world.

it is the inescapable destiny of all pvp servers.

This merely accelerates it.

Realms are MUCH higher population now.

I only remember like 7 realms being in my battlegroup, but it probably depended on realm populations too.

Less queue times the better. Thanks Blizz

I just gave it a google and from what I could see almost all battlegroups had 20 servers, but it’s a bit hard to verify. I still think the significantly smaller number of servers will mostly make this a non issue, but I suppose we’ll see.

do u really want win trading and rank 14 mafias? use ur brain now.

It is the master’s degree program after you earn your brain scientist degree.

I guess that is one way to make win trading more difficult. I could live with this.

Classic servers have significantly higher populations than Vanilla servers, and counting just the number of servers will give you an incorrect result.

sooo now way to tell how much rank point youre gonna get with this change? xD
might make it worst for some people

Lol. Wish I could share your optimism but these are the same people who let layering go live after months of being told it would be abused.
Oh and lets not forget about the pages of input on beta for Azeroth.

@OP: Thanks for patch notes and the key ring.
