Testing Same-Faction Battlegrounds in Burning Crusade Classic

its the only metric we have to go by, so you’ll just have to suck it up as fact unless you got a better metric to measure by, which you don’t.

Thanks for doing this Blizzard, finally I can spend time doing what I enjoy in the game.

Well you have open world, you have shat, and finally you can compare queues. Why in classic queue were good and now it’s dead? Because all alliance stoped pvping at once? It’s the most stupid justifying I ever seen

There are many alliance premade discord’s and I don’t see alliance doing bgs less than in classic

well yeah, alliance got tired of losing and stopped queuing. that’s my guess at least. or they managed to farm all their gear already, in which case they have no more reason to queue up.

the queues in classic was terrible by phase 5 and 6 as well btw. the queues were only remotely acceptable and short from phase 2 to 4, which is a few months - enough time for any alliance player to farm all their stuff, due to instant queues and organized rank-gatekeeping or whatever people used to refer to it as… you know, the people who would organize who get their rank 14 on a weekly basis while sending death threats to anyone who would bracket break.

remember, TBC introduced boosts, which caused A LOT of people to reroll horde, which is why queue times have been screwed up from day one in TBC on horde side, and didn’t revert back to their phase 2-4 times.

How? Did they level up faster? No way

Because many alliance started reroling horde for racials that’s obvious

I don’t see alliance premades face any troubles

well one-two months of instant queues should be enough for anyone to farm all the blue stuff if they invest enough time into it ESPECIALLY if they stocked up 100 of each mark during prepatch with the advantage of the old honor gain system to boot, which made it so getting to honor cap only took a couple of days, which now takes weeks.

i’ve only enjoyed 3 days of casual play with instant queues, one of them being kara raid night, and i’ve already got 2 pieces, closing in on the third which i will have by mid-day today.

I just dont care what you do with your cross faction thing, but I do care to KNOW what to do.
Should I reroll alliance for pvp or just afk raid log on horde ?
Just don’t let me reroll alliance to put this patch…

DO WHAT YOU WANT BUT TELL ME ! TELL US SO WE KNOW !

Every pvper deserves a chance to play with the larger community. Faction change available to all now. Or else remove this mockery. Simple as that. Let the zugzugs troll as much as they like.

What are you talking about? Alliance have the best racials by far when it comes to PvP, especially human.

Something tells me different

I’ve played all races, I just rolled orc this time because my friends wanted to play horde this time. What is your point? 5% stun resist vs stealth detection(meaning you will find enemy stealthers in arena 99% of the time) plus the extra sword skill. If we would’ve rolled ally I would’ve instantly picked human for their racials.

I can only imagine perception for dueling rogue. In other scenarios horde racials are obviously stronger

Perception in arena is really one of the best abilities, imagine getting the opener every single time.

When 2 rogues trying to find each other yes, human wins all the time. But another classes with another races are much stronger on horde side. I cannot wof dueling warlock or priest and I must press medalion, I cannot get out of stunlock without hardiness. Arening alliance in bc really harder

I take it you don’t play a lot of arena when you keep comparing rogue against rogue, that is not only what I’m talking about here. WoTF is not so overpowered as it means you will lose every duel against an undead. Killing undead rogues as a warlock is not as hard as you make it seem. You just have to expect them to pop WoTF and have a second fear casting right as they do.

Anyways I don’t know why we go OT and discuss racials instead of the same-faction BGs. I don’t know why alliance are so angry about this when it doesn’t affect them at all, other than perhaps they won’t be alone in having full honor gear now, so they lose that advantage.

The people who are against this, is the people that want their opponent to be vastly undergeared than them, so they stand a chance of winning? This is the only reason I can think of why anyone would be against.

I don’t say that I can’t win undead warlock I just say he has advantage. And it is not about wof if I fight rogue but plenty of stuns. Hardiness would make life against them much easier. I don’t complain, this is kind of a challenge. Hardmode

I don’t know why horde players trying to prove racials is not a deal. Hordies lol, this is the reason of your faction overpopulating. If I cared a lot about racials I would reroll horde just like a half of your faction, but I chose a living pvp instead of race bonuses. And yes, alliance doesn’t care if you stupid and all went horde and suffering then. This is like a kid who dropped his candy and crying then. Why should we care
