Ashran pve quest

The 50 artifact fragments quest is such awful quest design it’s hilarious - you join ashran to see 75% of your teammates running to the npcs to farm fragments while the enemy team rush our base and farm us 40vs10.

Blizzard you need to seriously hire some proper brains to figure these things out before years of annoyance, how are you so smart I don’t understand.

Should be something like ‘you obtain artifact by killing enemy players instantly without having to loot them’ so you can “speed up” by summoning the big boss.

While Brawl Classic Ashran should have PvE elements.

The mentality (at least on Alliance side) is: we’re not going to win anyways, I might as well do something else for honor farm.

I’m not sure why though, most alliance players I encounter in Ashran don’t have any conquest gear (or at least upgraded conquest gear) so not sure why you need to farm so much honor…

The benefit of gaining 1000 honor for the time spend after entering an ashran is pretty good. You’ll simply queue ashran to only do that quest and those people that queue random epic bgs will have to suffer the pvers that think just as you say “We’re not gonna win anyways so we might aswell give up and not try to win anyways” haha.

It’s a really bad quest there’s like a billion added “extra honor” quests people can do in Shadowlands so this quest stands out even more as bad game design that doesn’t get fixed for 1 billion iterations because Blizzard won’t fix it.

You realise the quest is available to both factions, right? It happens on both sides so it kinda just equals out.

Like, I get it’s annoying that there’s a PvE aspect of a BG (albeit a beneficial one for gearing purposes), but I doubt it affects the outcome of the game that much because both sides have people doing PvE.

it really does affect the outcome, if you have 10 players doing the quest whilst the other team only has 3 you will get pushed all the way back to your base and probably lose your mage before the people doing the quest have finished. that kind of momentum doesn’t get turned around

It’s not about some statistical equilibrium over billions of games played resulting in some perfect convergence of winratios, it’s not about taht u don’t play the game like a statistical person man u play it game by game and it’s like annoying when 30 of your teammate go into the pve pasture no matter what faction u are with, it’s like who said anything about the alliance being more into qing ashran to do PVE quests? I didn’t but I think they do.
