Same faction battlegrounds -- e.g. Horde vs Horde - like RBGs

The honor rate is very low for pugs. Lot more effort than horde and only minimal upgrade in honor per hour. I know grass looks greener on other side. Come and try it.

I took my boost with a friend.

Why is world pvp important to you? You do realise that the majority of PVP players play BGS/Arenas, NOT open world pvp.

So yes, I rather have world pvp die out all together if it means we can play bgs at a normal rate.

And you don’t have any data to backup your claim that EVERY pvp server will be ruined with merc mode lol.

I’m just gonna quote this and save it so there is no question about what this movement is about.

i just dont like the idea of charging money to fix a problem the individual is not the cause of.

if you rolled horde but would prefer to play alliance for lore/visual reason sure its your fault.

if you rolled horde but all your friends play alliance, your fault.

but if you rolled horde, want to play horde, all friends are horde but you cant play it because of 1½ hour queues to an ingame feature. IMO not your fault.

Faction change is a garbage idea that doesn’t solve anything but allow you to constantly hop faction once another gets imbalanced, all whilst paying an absurd amount of money to do so.

The large majority of players won’t even purchase this, so It’s not a solution to them at all.

And I already know the Alliance honor rates are higher, you don’t have to spend 1.5hr queue after-all.

Good, because you wanting the MAJORITY of PVP players to have 1,5hours queues or quit the game is even worse. Not that you are important or anything lol

No, I want the majority to make a better choice or deal with their choice.

The bottom line is I want to play the faction and race I chose, I don’t want to pay 30 euro to change faction just so I can avoid having a 1.5 hr queue time, that isn’t a solution, and I don’t want to queue merc mode to become the other faction, if I wanted to be alliance I would…

another issue with faction change is that in tbc you cant have horde and alliance chars on the same realm so it has to include a server transfer aswell :slight_smile:

You have to eventually deal with being the underpopulated faction in PVP. If you think Blizzard will leave it as it is now, I am sorry to disappoint you lol. We have another 2 years of TBC, not a chance they leave it this broken.

Yeah it’s higher, but not as much you would think. I farmed 75k honor on nyt tauren in prepatch. It’s gonna take weeks to get that back even with alliance queues because allies lose almost every pug bg and I haven’t found a premade because there isn’t much pvp players on my realm.

Faction change is a solution, but yeah it requires horde to do sacrifice also, if you find bgs important the leap ain’t that bad.

mimimi, no on wanna play with me if horde get’s stuff to lower the que, mimimi.

Still, same story.

And then there’s nothing left for those that enjoy wPvP, what should they do?

Yeah that’s true probably realm transfer could come on the same time or it needs to if that’s the solution for PvP faction imbalance.

First of all, most servers are already heavily unbalanced in horde/alliance ration. And the amount of people who does world pvp is WAAY smaller than those who do BGs/Arenas.

World pvp is a gank fest, and not enjoyable 1 bit.

I am dealing with it? I am not the one here complaining and demanding changes. I am playing the underdog faction in TBC and that was my choice. I am dealing with my choice. No problems at all.

No, I am sorry to disappoint you.

The second we start to substitute our modern judgement to solve problems from 12 years ago we are deviating from our goal of a historical recreation of the game as it was, and making something different, and that is something we want to avoid.

What does it solve xd? A minority a players paying real money to move to a faction they don’t want to be just to have lower queues? If they wanted to be alliance they already would be

World PvP is already a joke on most Server, because its PvP Server. Its horde dominated anyways.

And guess what, Sherlock: What do you think people do if they hang out in a que for 2 hours?

Right. Releasing their anger in wPvP. End of the story.

This is why I took my boost to a Normal pve realm. World pvp is just numbers game, it wasn’t as fun as I thought before classic.
