we all know alliance is basically dead which is a shame because alliance zones are more comfy but being horde makes it so much easier to play the game.
so why not let us group cross faction to do dungeons and raids? you already do it for pvp there is no excuse
I am 100% in favor of this, but then you have people that complain about faction imbalance and yet are against the very idea of it alongside those that are against it just because…
Leave that for RP realms, everywhere else for gameplay’s sake. World PvP would still be a thing outside groups.
I think a lot more would get on board if they manage to give people a lore reason why were raiding together…like yano the raid is so hard it requires the best of both factions or some other crap.
I’m all for it. Alliance is extremely dead.
Factions ingame is a outdated idea. It doesnt work for a 15 year old game.
Let us play together - keep the factions in lore. Simple
Why a lore attachment? It can strictly be for gameplay reasons, similar to Mercenary mode where they appear as your faction.
This is just one of those things that blizzard struggles to accept.
They’re extremely stubborn in some cases. But judging by how the game is going, I think it’s only a matter of time before they give in to cross faction play.
But i seriously think shadowlands was the perfect opportunity for it.
They can make option for pvp which will work like pvp war mode but call it alliance/horde loyalist, this option would enable faction mode like it is now.
Additional they can make some cities don’t available for races from other factions cause those cities belong to faction loyalists.
Let me play my alliance characters again… i abandoned them for this season cause lack of alliance players in last bfa season.
Many players like me switched faction but is a lot players who just quit if they can’t play their favourite characters.
Edit: We have to remember, there is a lot of “true” faction loyalist in game. They could quit if Blizz unite factions. Meybe this is a reason why they don’t do this.
every single raid has the lore characters from both sides working together
They’d be the extreme minority…
This is necessary, but many players who don’t care about raiding and M+, ie players that don’t engage in content where faction imbalance is really problematic, would then say : “Factions are core to the game, therefore, should remain”.
RPers are the ones that want the factions gone or at least soft-locked all the more. Are literally all of our characters so racist they must kill every orc on sight? Of course not. Any sane person will be able to talk to people of the opposite faction, even if there’s some apprehension at first.
Alliance babies demanding the Horde to carry them in raids and m+. No.
There should be no lorewise issues with merging the factions and adding a new second faction with a more flexible relation to AlliHorde for the sake of PvE story.
Cross-faction PvE… NO! NO! NO!
There is no time for the devs to do cross-faction PvE now!
They must fix the PvP first. (immediately!!! - SOLO RANKED QUEUE!!!)
It is the inverse
It’s literally a toggled function… private servers have had it way back in 2007 when I was on the private servers scene in TBC’s earlier days.
You mean like nearly every single raid since Ahn’Qirai that had Alliance and Horde fight together?
Sure. Put back in Legion Templates, make it so classes can’t 1-shot everything in sight, and the PvP scene will be infinitely better already.

And I hate Goblins but you don’t see me complain about someone playing as one.
I seriously don’t understand this cartoonish vitriol some people have over someone’s choice of faction.
A bit childish, wouldn’t you say?
