I definitely dislike the so called “new PvP system” not because of itself, but because I need to spend 90% of my time doing PvE and PvE-related activities just so that I can spend 10% of my time doing PvP…
I am forced to complete the WHOLE Shadowlands story line, forced to get a Covenant, Conduits, do all sorts of Daily quests, Weekly quests, World quests, world bosses, Torghasts, then Torghast level 4 is unlocked, then you do 5 after it just to unlock 6, then spend even more time there just to be sent back on a Torghast run after that to save Jaina, then there’s the Maw all the running around between your zone, Oribos and your faction capital…
And if you really, really want to be on top of your PvP game, you must forget all about PvP and go look for Premade Groups and do Mythics, cause you’ll end up with a way better and way stronger gear, with much higher iLvl…
And then you move on to your Renowned PvE quest story line along with all the activities… All but PvP. For PvP. Just not PvP.
I dislike pve too, but I really don’t feel this is the case at all. At least not right now. The pve activities I must do, while I do indeed wish there were none that would improve my pvp potential, are actually fairly low on time consumption. I find myself having time to do arenas even in the first day, despite doing all the weekly chores there were. Those chores won’t be there in the upcoming weekdays, which means more time for me to pvp.
Once when you first level up, oh dear what a massive shame
you’re forced to click three times, once to accept a quest, once to choose the covenent, and once to turn in the quest. Oh dear, what a massive shame.
Why are you? We’re not even forced to do any of this stuff in PVE.
Once a week to get some soul ash. Oh dear, what a massive shame.
Why are you doing maw? It gives nothing beneficial to you, lets be honest here.
You get anima from bg’s and arena, which you turn in for your renown. Oh dear, what another massive shame.
Sounds to me like you’re just one of these that loves to complain and will make up bs in your mind to justify to yourself that blizzard hate you and the pvp scene when that’s not the case in the slightest.
It takes a lot of time. I hate it as someone whose class has no issue with clearing it, but I can’t imagine how annoying it must be for those classes with low sustain who waste an hour only to die on the boss and get nothing at all.
Torghast is boring when you succeed, frustrating if you lose, and it’s the single thing preventing me from having alts this expansion.
I’m fine with conduits, daily and weekly quests, covenant quests, even the boring torghast, but I don’t wanna go and farm dungeons again and again for gears to being competitive in PvP; I find wow dungeons boring and time consuming clownfiestas, but arena is already full with ppl, who geared in PvE and cheesing PvE trinkets.
Meh, 90% feels a bit high. Last week I mostly did battlegrounds. Torghast was capped to the level I did the week before, Covenant questline was minimal and the rest was optional. Now Torghast takes a little more time, but the higher you push now the less you have to do next week.
However…We do not have seperate PvP gear and PvP gear’s ilvl consistently is behind on PvE gear. Thát is the biggest issue imo. Next BG gear upgrade is at Renown 22, which means 5 weeks (?). Conquest gear (excluding weekly chest) takes 21 weeks to get…so uhm yea…we are prob better off getting vers items from PvE content if you aim high.
Would you be totally fine if you had to do weekly 50 mandatory Arenas, 20 Battlegrounds and 10 World PvP quests, so that you’re even allowed to get somewhat close to being able to participate in a raid?
And would you be fine if your best Raid gear came only from PvP activities?
Obviously not.
I would quit the game realising i bought the wrong game. Probably refund.
Right now the best anima drops from PVP and i truely hope it gets changed ASAP that hardly any anima drops from the PVP weekly quests since its insanity it comes from PVP and not PVE
I feel like it doesn’t matter at this point because everyone’s getting one shot left to right regardless. I get global’d through all my defensives. Myself can AOE down a whole BG in 5 seconds. Gear doesn’t matter. Quest geared rogue, PVP geared rogue, mythic+ geared rogue. One shot all the same.
They’re never going to get control on this situation in PVP this whole expansion. It’s only gonna get so much worse when we get to our appropriate soulbinds and higher level conduits. Then they’ll start adding more legendary equips. There’s just no way. I have so little faith that they will manage to balance this.
Those guys choose to make a character on a PvP server knowing the risks… So they should not complain about that… Same as people who turn on WM should not complain about it either.
