PvE is harder than PvP (at least arenas)

is that for SL? cause i would wager that M+ involvement this expansion is a lot lower than in the past because
a) SL is only like 2 months old,
b) gear drops via M+ is so scare people are just not doing them as much.

but while i HATE arena, cause its mostly based on the classes ability to burst nuke at the start (up until you reach the high levels where all players are full time pvpers), arena & BG’s are harder cause all pve is on a timer. thats why DBM can exist to predict “next bad naught in 3, 2, 1”. that doesn’t and cant happen in pvp.

Most people in BfA’s motivation for doing mythics was gear, or saving up for gear from the vendor. It makes sense that participation this expansion will be lower. I had to do mythics to be competitive last expansion, this time I don’t.

1v2 games are for the most part a player who significantly outgears and outskills 2 players.

To take that argument further, look at it from the 2 players perspective, pvp is obviously harder if they can’t win vs a single person surely?

There are always videos of players soloing raids, pretty sure there were videos of players soloing nyalotha encounters in 8.3
It would be extremely stupid to take that as an example that pve is easy if 1 player can solo it.

Then you talk about boosts? Like the entire pve scene is full of boosts, m+, mythic runs, mythic mounts. Selling challenge mode golds and mythic mounts was my main source of gold income in wod even more lucrative than garrisons were. Don’t act like boosts are a pvp only thing

This thread has to be a joke

PvE vs PvP discussions are always boring and childish :sleeping:

Yeah it’s a bit like those nonsensical discussions like ‘‘Who would win in a fight, a silverback gorilla or a grizzly bear?’’

And both have high end players who excel at them. I really don’t see the point of these discussions. It’s as tedious as the Classic vs Retail topics.

Yeah but it’s easier to excel at PvE than it is PvP.
Just like it’s easier to play a MOBA than an RTS for example.

Puny you have to go for the purple mog again, I just can’t get over the fact that you’re not purple.

It’s like… it’s not even you anymore :frowning:

That’s big talk for someone who doesn’t even have curve this late into the expansion.

It may have been too vague but I’m not interested in the whole my Dad is better than your Dad comparison between different aspects of the game.

Some PvP players are rubbish at PvE, some PvE players are rubbish at PvP. Some play both well. They are different ways to play.

There is no x is better than y.

I always feel like people that start these discussions have a need to feel better than others to compensate for something :pinching_hand:

What about decisions about your positioning? :thinking: Those aren’t on the gcd.

You can’t effectively always predict what your enemy will do, you can always predict what a boss will do.

Yeah exactly! PvE you know exactly what’s going to happen.

why does someone who has no notable pvp achievement compare pvp with pve? you got scripted encounters in pve and you play vs bots. I done mythic raiding often enough and have several cutting edge achievements and you can have the most dead weight in your group and still get it done.

this post is just delusional. pvp takes way more time to learn a class or play it to perfection / knowing your enemy and counterpredicting their moves to get to 2.4 and above.

I just completed two 16s in time during tyrannical week on my mm this week. On the arenas I have tried I barely got past 1.5k rating this week. Maybe I am a terrible player. Maybe mm hunter is bad in arenas. Maybe my toaster 20 frame rate computer is not suited for pvp. Whatever the case rated pvp feels MUCH harder than pve content.

Im sorry what? :rofl: :man_facepalming:

Roleplay is actually the hardest.
You need to know lore of the whole game, lore of your race, you need to have good grammar and good writing skills, you need acting skills and improvisation.
Roleplay >>> pvp and pve
