Greetings everyone.
I have a friend of mine that wants to join the current Anniversary servers which is progressing through Vanilla and then going to TBC but he wants to play Alliance, I’m playing on the Horde side but he can do whatever he wants, he said that he likes some of the races in the Alliance and doesn’t like Horde races, I told him that’s fair, I prefer that he goes to enjoy the game the way he wants than to join a faction just because I’m playing there.
He’s curious about some stuff that he found out when searching around a bit and he noticed that many people say that Horde seems to be better at PvP or that many of us prefer to play Horde especially when doing PvP, that Horde has some advantage in Alterac Valley, I just told him that in terms of the PvP aspect the Horde racials are better than the ones that the Alliance has but it’s not a huge advantage, I have said to him that player knowledge about the class, abilities etc is more important than the percentage that some racial trait can give to a player.
I mean I personally don’t know how things are on that Alterac Valley map, maybe Horde has indeed some advantage based on the geography of that map but I don’t know for sure.
At the end he’s worried that playing as Alliance he will not see a big success in PvP, I told him that I doubt that’s the case, I have seen players with the rank of Commander and probably there’s player above that rank on Alliance so I doubt that Alliance is bad at PvP right?
