On our server we are 99.9% alliance and some people will bring out their horde alts to cap the points in Hellfire so the rest of the server can do the PVP daily, but lately some alliance have been killing the horde alts and capping the points keeping everyone from doing the daily. I know it’s PVP on a PVP server, but isn’t this just toxic behavior?
One of them has a 70 horde rogue and they cap all the points so they get their daily done on their horde character and as soon as they do they take their alliance character and cap getting their daily done, but then keeping them capped and killing other horde that comes close to the point keeping the rest of the server from getting the PVP quest done. Is there something that can be done to combat this toxic and selfish behavior?
What’s the purpose of your post? Trolling? Get a life? Why? Because I’m posting an opinion in the place that’s sole purpose is to post opinions?
If Blizzard won’t do something about faction balance what else can people do, but take it into their own hands?
Yes it absolutely is griefing. They are purposfully making sure no one else can do the quest, but only after they get it done and it’s not like 5 people are trying to do the quest it’s around 30-50 right after the Terrokar PVP daily. It’s against their own faction. It’s like pushing off people’s world buffs in Classic just to be toxic. This is toxic behavior.
And that’s exactly why the server is 99.9% alliance. When it was 40/60 horde/alliance the alliance was camping outside of every dungeon just to grief the horde. Which was exactly why our guild left our previous server that had gone from 40/60 Alliance/Horde to 99% horde. There are so many players that just want to be toxic and ruin the game for others. This is another example of it.
It helps to read through the whole thread and look at the big picture. Connect the dots. Maybe you’ll realize the answer is a bit more complex. If not, i’ll help you out here;
The griefer seems to actively prevent their own faction to complete the quest because “faction balance.” A side effect is that OP is getting ganked.
I’ve always said (and experienced) that your own faction on a pvp server is ur worst enemy, not the opposite faction.
Someone said that own faction ppl rolling the opposite one for grieving on a mostly one sided realm was far fetched, well here you have ur so called “far fetched” fantasy.
If we’re really starting to connect the dots, OP and his crew are actually trying to exploit the game by having an alliance account to “win-trade” honor.
I’m aware ofc of what the “griefer” is doing but no one can ever take action against him for staying at a PVP objective and killing the enemy faction.
There was a way to get Onyxia head world buff earlier in Classic, than intended CD when it disappeared. You needed Horde shadow priest to mind control NPC that accepted turn in and then just kill him as his faction would change upon MC (was fixed later on at the end of Classic or start of TBCC).
However some guys thought it would be funny to kill Horde character making this service. The problem was that all this world buff stuff was coordinated in server discord and if someone griefed this way he got universal hate from everyone. People of the Alliance even allowed other Horde characters to escort SP and kill any griefer wannabe on sight.
Hellfire peninsula PvP quest is just too minor thing, compared to world buffs for such shaming to occur.
You are complaining that PvP happens on a PvP server, at a location made specifically to encourage PvP.
You have to accept the downsides of being on a Single Faction Server as well as all the benefits, can’t have one without the other.
No sympathy from me.
What is it with the after you mentality at the HF PvP quest locations ? Got grief from my own faction for killing the opposite faction, that was stopping me capping the other day, pfft ( I play in the minority faction )
His server is 99,9% Alliance. There’s no point in discussing world PvP as the A/H ratio is out of range for any purposeful conclusion. Grief or no grief.
