PvP Battlegrounds are Broken

Tanks and Healers are broken. pvp battlegrounds are broken.

1 tank or healer can sit on a flag preventing 3 dps from capping. so 1 tank or healer can take 3 people out of the game.

Tanks self healing is so strong that i regularly see Brewmaster monks (tanks) topping healing meters in pvp battlegrounds while still in the top 3rd of dps meters.

Healers define whether you win or loose the game. 2 people define the whole team. Healers are practically immortal, able to go from 10%hp to 100 over and over again. It often requires 4 dps just to kill 1 healer.

Oh and op classes like balance druids top the dps meters with 60% of their damage coming from just 3 aoe dots moonfire / sunfire / starfire

Overall it feels like a really, really, really bad gaming experience.

How can you (Blizzard) be happy with this ?

TLDR:

  • Tank role is op can tank 3 people
  • Heal role is op too much impact
  • DPS role is op does too much damage with just dots

Battle of gineas
Blood DK was sitting at flagg and 5 guys from us where pumping him

We got stun locks disarm and i can say for myself and hopefully sound not too arogant as 2.150 player with full gear this season i know how to pump damage and was unloading in him 5 min, nothing better to do anyway in this BG we where controlling the other 2 flags, i cant say if the other player on my team dont got gear but all other player where melting in team fight and we dominate

He not once drop in critical health, eaven me vs a healer in a BG i can make him at last suver a bit and drop a view times very low

Healers do need a serious nerf, especially disc priest. They are immortal in bg’s.

This season greatly benefits healers with the significant increase in life pool in proportion to the damage done.

Seriously, I want fast PvP again. Is this slow pvp what will await us in the next expansion???

I wouldn’t thought so, merely because we will eventually go into the pre patch and scaling will likely be scuffed until release.
Eventually with the hero talents every spec will have their true potential and burst to the point that PvP will become fast paced once more.

In regards with enhancement at this very moment doesn’t feel strong enough right now, and the fact you don’t have MS doesn’t help much, have you consider trying elemental to snipe down any healers?

Food for thoughts anyways, merely speculating about the current situation and could be misinformed, but as a devastation I haven’t have any issue with handling healers, that I kill one, cool, that I don’t kill them? I just put them to sleep for 5 sec or coordinate a chain cc with other dps.

Blizzard hasnt “balance team”, u know guys?

I’m fine with the fast thing. What I’m not okay with is Blizzard taking that as an excuse to add more worthless CC into the game…

CC is a plague on this game. It’s all about CC nowadays. Who can time their CC the best. Who has the most CC.

Fun idea… spend half of the fight not being able to do anything because you get looped into a cc chain. It’s just crappy gameplay.

Blizzard doesn’t have a PvP team, period.

Only broken thing in this game are ppl, sorry to say. I agree, that premades in EBG are pain in the butt, but again…it’s allowed by Blizz, at least it seems so. What makes me angry? People not listening in BG, doing stupid thing. I have a feeling, that a lot of ppl who didnt care about the tactic, rules etc. moved from random BG to Blittz. Every EOTS I see ppl trying to cap blocked/yellow marked towers. Every Blitzz I see ppl ignoring CC on healers, focusing on mindless zug zug. They ignore simple objectives, dont care about RW, dont read chat. They prefer to whine, just like I right now on forum :slight_smile:

Add bad performance because of missing gear, bad talents, no enchants, etc.

No wonder why good players who “do their part” prefer to play in premades :wink:

Even you don’t believe what you said, right?

What exactly is their ‘‘part’’? Let me tell you, graveyard farming. Let’s not fool ourselves.

Because people who have healthy mind don’t attribute a meaning to random games.

Contributing to win the battleground.
Damage, Heal, progress towards Map objectives.
If Victory is safe or map obj is secured (only 1 player can carry the flag home…), poster the sh1t out of them enemies :crazy_face: (yeah, also GY farming).

There will be no healers if are not powerful. None likes to be a piece of meat and ganged by dps

Of course, because you don’t take the opportunity to farm in the GY in those bgs where the queue is bugged and doesn’t allow more than 8 alliances to enter (8 vs 10) while a group of mercenaries carry you. By the way, the only BG you didn’t quit before it started.

You complain but do the same as soon as you get a chance. The height of hypocrisy.

What did i tell you? Don’t speak to me until decide to be a man and que a single bg alone at least once a year. And you told me that i want to be a man, i am just too fragile to play alone so just give me some time. So keep your promise until this time.

I don’t get carried. I only carry.

You are the only one who need carry with max 1.6k SS and 1.2k Blitz exp. It is no surprise you avoid playing alone any form of PvP, even one in a million.

You only carry? :rofl:

You are a really bad joke every time i find you.

Apart from your terrible skills as a hunter (It’s not that playing MM requires too much skill either), not even when Endofstory carry you are able to get a victory (where by the way, my group was 3/5).

Not to mention that the only Bgs in which you don’t quit is when there happens to be a premade on your team. I am not going to stop to discuss the possibility that you belong to such groups and it was not a mere coincidence, but it is well known that you have been and are in Bgs communities at the same time that you come to the forum to criticize those who do the same.

You yourself published not long ago a BG where I beat you queuing alone, because you thought I was in premade. :rofl:

The best thing you could do is disappear from the forum until you have a minimum of consistency with what you write and what you really do.

Blitz exp? There is no such thing yet until the next expansion.

I have played 57 Blitz and I already have the achievement of winning 50, Which means I have a similar win-ratio to what I have in normal Bgs:

Meanswhile you completed the achievement of playing 100 Blitzs (15/11/23) and 7 days later you achieve the one of 50 victories (22/11/23), which means you have lose more than the 50% of your blitz:

I can see how well you carry in Bgs.

What possibility? It is confirmed that Drivenscope plays in groups himself.
around 6 weeks ago my group and Drivenscope’s group played against a Russian 5 stack premade in a random bg, next bg I saw the same people along with Drivenscope. I asked the shaman who was their group leader if Drivenscope was part of their group and he said yes.

I find it weird that some people say that playing in groups is problematic but then proceed to do it themselves. I find syncing problematic and abstain from it and I consider regular groups OK so I play in them. But to say one thing and then act the other way is inconsistent and hypocritical. If you think groups are a problem, don’t play in groups.
