Really? Why is it so difficult to give the bonus to the faction being outnumbered in each realm or shard. In my shard the horde is heavily outnumbered and we get nothing, no w8, we get constantly ganked (specially when the bonus is over 15%). It would be nice if blizzard stoped listening to alliance tears for once.
You do realise you’re making yourself look like a clown, right thinking that its Blizzard catering to the alliance, the warmode % is automated and goes off of player participation in WM.
Sure the system is garbage since shards have different amounts of players per faction in each shard but never the less, theres nothing stopping you from server hopping.

Better to insult than just admit that the fair thing would be that the bonus should change depending on the realm/shard. That argument of just “hop” between realms could also have been valid when the alliance was crying at the beginning of BFA before receiving the extra bonus.

Aren’t you crying right now, poor thing?

I wonder, during all BFA long that your faction cried about HORDE BIAS in WM did you get in the forums to call your alliance buddies clowns are whiners?
Just wondering 
Of course i am
Nah I call them worse obviously cause said alliance people are often than not either depleting my keys or being fresh max level in bgs and handicapping their team
And face it, horde bias is what caused this noticeable difference between faction and player activity. The horde virtually ruined every wpvp event in BFA infact cause they just server hopped a raids worth of horde over and then the horde to alliance ratio was 3 to 1 then since they were always the majority faction in warmode.
I have to put up with my own faction in game enough as it is and let me tell you, I have a long list of people ill be paying a ganking visit to once the slither of nzoth makes a reappearance
Having played both factions with WM on at max lvl for long time I can say that… both sides are correct.
Especially in BfA start, Alliance was heavily outnumbered in most shards. Simply because Alliance are way outnumbered as a faction overall. And soon after the launch it was almost impossible to do WQs as an Alliance.
After the AOO weekly introduction, the numbers didn’t change much regarding Alliance and Horde but if you were unlucky enough to be a Horde and end up in an Alliance controlled shard especially in Nazjatar, you were dead on loading screen.
Generally speaking from my everyday experience, Alliance are a bit outnumbered and there’s higher chance to get ganged but the few times you end as a Horde in Alliance shard… well you are doomed…
Ofc this goes for normal servers. I have no idea what goes on in RP servers. As far as I know they are sharded separately.
Yep, that was my point.
Never alliance bias, always horde bias.
Ive opened WM like 3-4 times back then, i found myself between at least 5 alliance players grouped chasing 1 guy. You on the other hand: HORDE SHARD BIAS.
the WM system is terribly designed and flawled, as most alliance will turn on the WM, enter the maw, do their thingy, camp alliance for 30 minutes, and turn it off, i have NOT ONCE seen horde do that, you enter the maw as horde, you can either disable the warmode, or pray to not be camped. yesterday there were more than 15 alliance at entrance, and as soon as i managed to kill 1-2 and run back into the safe area using all my defs, they started to literally emote spam me, and as soon as i came out, kidneyshot into solar beam, and without my iceblock (5min cd) im basically dead.
warmode is just a system that promotes zerging above anything else, and creates even more faction imbalance and foul play than neccessary.
Back then we had pvp realms, i was always outnumbered, but not 15 to 1, more like 8 to 2 or 3, now those 2 others turn warmode off because they can, and don’t want to be camped, they jsut want their dailies done, and on the other side, ionstead of 8, you have people sharding and phasing from other realms too, and its a clownfiesta everyday, i could literally, log, gom to the maw right now, and there would be 10-20 alliance camping.
i do agree with what the guy above says, if we are gonna maek this godamn warmode system, at least give a bonus to realms where horde are obviously outnumbered like mine, its not hard, try opening REALMPOP and chekc the numbers, just like you have servers such as TwistingNether, TarrenMill, Ragnaros, where horde players are 10 times the alliance, you also have Ravencrest, Outland, and other alliance populated realms, how are we suppose to just ignore the fact that we get camped daily, and alliance is portraied as the weak faction getting its butt kicked all the time, when there were no bonuses it was more balanced, and logical, people did or didn’t want to pvp, they didn’t need incentive to group up and zerg 20 v 1 like now.
whoever came up with Warmode system clearly does not understand normal human behavious and the consequences of giving player agency to something that directly impacts everyone, and don’t even get me started on “okay so we give bonus to X faction”
terrible system.

Servers mean nothing . its about battlegroups
every battle ground is dominated by 80% horde and 20% alliance
2million players and 80% are on horde… think about that
% comes from how many players from each faction have WM turned on, has nothing to do with favoring one side or the other. Having recently switched H → A on my main on a heavy horde server, what I noticed is:
- Way more PVE’ers are on horde due to racials. Not saying all PVE’ers are bad in PVP but they often don’t like it.
- Since they don’t like it and have a choice to leave it off why would they even bother ?
- PVP’ers are more common on Alliance. Again, racials on alliance provide more utility for PVP and due to this Alliance was simply the best side to be on for pvp…remember human racial from wotlk → wod giving you a free trinket slot? Pretty much any class that could be a human WOULD be played as a human. Step into a MoP arena and only the druids and shamans would be night elves and dwarfs, everything else was a human (most probably female with engineering goggles and that top knot haircut / black hair).
- Now the big one: regardless of faction domination on a server / battlegroup, horde players for the majority of them actually AVOID pvp even with WM on, only interest they have is increased rewards. Which is close to nothing since H to A ratio is already so heavily in favor of horde that they will ALWAYS outnumber the alliance having WM on.
To sum it up, it is quite the fun to be alliance on a horde server. You get your assassin buff pretty quickly and then the clownfiesta begins once you’re getting stalked by those that actually care about using their WM.
wow we really took the silly moaning to the next level.

Forget bonus, there is awesome WPvP happening with Cryptids League community (Alliance), and The Scarlet Scourge guild (Horde) on Ravencrest.
Bonus? Who cares lol! Kiiiiilllll. WPvP is on the rise in EU, you can be a part of it.
