By implementing a rating-gating to conquest gearing, Blizzard single handedly killed the casual PvP. Whenever I q BGs; i one shot people left and right unless i face another fella fully geared. Is it fun for me? Yes, but i know i am ruining another guy’s day by landing a 40k demonbolt on his face.
I know man… after a days work I just wanna play 2-3 games max. So i queue up wait 15 minutes get in: BOOM! PRemade! everyone including their moms with 60-62k HP. And then there I am with 48k… Yes! Fun times! And since these people want honor, the premades don’t even do the objectives they just farm the GY…
Yay! How to ruin a game in decline? Ask Ion to be the lead designer
the fun quickly dries out the moment you realize that you will need to do it for many hours every day for many days to upgrade your whole gear.
Like look at this char here. I am at rival 2 level, perhaps duellist in near future, do I look ilke someone who is going to grind all of that to upgrade my gear? I am at the level where I am 20 ilevels below than what I should be already.
