Twinks still around in leveler queues

Community General Discussion
1

I thought that twinks were banned from regular leveler queues (which btw I am happy about as it completely destroyed fun component of leveling through BGs).

Now, that does not seem to be the case entirely and they are still finding a way around this somehow. That one guy - name removed by OP - which is able to destroy me (full heirloom) in 3 seconds literally - is constantly joining and winning BGs in 50-59 bracket. There are more twinks in this bracket which are just not leveling up somehow. How is this possible since twinks removal in 8.1.5? Is it a bug? Do I not know about something?

I’ve met him on three BGs which horde has won in a row - he would have leveled up for sure just from that, not to mention exp for battleground objectives.

These times almost every character is twink in some way, everybody got heirlooms and enchants while leveling that’s why i think it shouldn’t be separated.

this topic is not to discuss this matter. I just wonder if I should not move this topic to bug section. Just trying to get more information how is it possible.

Though belive me - he is just owning the crap out of everyone in 3 seconds, I am not even sure about the set bonus he is wearing, look him up in the armory, obnoxiously powerful.

Sorry for little offtopic there, about your post: You can still stop your xp gains in capital city and land at certain level (59 for example) not getting any xp points while doing quests etc. He may be that strong because some classes learn their most powerful abilities earlier than others.

This guy is twinked but he has alot of green items, i don’t know how he is killing you in 3 seconds as resto though… he is stacking haste and got it at 33% already, maybe it’s the key :slight_smile:

You can but it puts you in seperate queue - at least it should. And that’s what OP wrote in the opening post, so please read it through.

The person in question is 100% twink and no wonder he can obliberate people - as healing specs have higher raw damage over dps specs, where dps specs have better scaling.
Not to mention his gear enchants are insane.

Maybe he just enabled the xp gaina gain? I remember in legion there was a way to spend your XP for some progress… Or was it WoD and Garrison? Don’t remember, maybe that’s a way to twink now?

It is not shame calling someone to be owning you in 3 seconds now is it :D. I actually saw him switching to feral and having separate weapons for melee combat (those purple tankard maces from brewfest). Look at the set bonus on this legacy dungeon set though! Anyway, if name calling not allowed, I can scratch his name. Question is - how is he managing to be in levelers BG queues.

Maybe @Volgrief has a point about spending XP for something. Either way, he can not get his own garrison yet so cant be garrisons if that’s a thing.

It’s not but you still aren’t allowed by the forum rules to name a specific character and a realm, unless said character belongs to you.

Careful with calling people out. It’s against the forum rules.

There are 100 ways to enter lvler bgs and i enjoy it too! ROFL.
way 1) make that macro unlock ur exp pres senter bg and then spam macro to lock exp before u enter. (NOT AN EXPLOIT! Clever use of game mechanics)
Unlock exp q enter normal bg prefearbly in party of premade to pwn , and leave before bg finishes :smiley: eaazy :stuck_out_tongue: :wink:
3???
I personally do way number 2 and i know When to leave on Every bg without getting Any exsp whatsoever. I usually stay almost till the end and i have an impact tbh.

What do you mean macro, care to elaborate?
I thought it is done by going into capital city and speaking with certain NPC (paying 10g in addition).

Three… so… many…

Ehm… this isn’t Dear diary; it’s forum.

My point is - he should have leveled if he had his exp enabled. There was no other point to that statement.

I dont remember when locked xp got added, but before that i had a few twinks as well. but when that got added i remember entering normal bgs and then leaving just before the end just so i would get less xp and last longer before making a new twink to do this over again. i dont twink anymore.

but did this twink stay until the end? if not that might be why he hasnt leveled up. also 3 bgs really dont give that much xp to give a full lvl either i think. especially if the twink does not have heirlooms

17

They can avoid most of the experience and even if they do level up… they’ll just make a new twink. You’ll never get rid of them.

Just accept it =)

I do not mind people creating new characters getting good gear and owning. I just want to find out how this and other people are cheating the system and are able to do it after the queues have been separated.
@Oldmanbarry, that particular twink still has Dungeon 1 druid set which was removed in cataclysm (unfortunately I had to remove his name from here due to forum rules). I am certain that if there was a thin chance his character gets past level 59, he would not risk this and you still get decent exp from completing BG objectives like flag caping etc.

So you’re saying that you don’t hate people with gear that shred others in battlegrounds but you hate twinks with gear that get in to battlegrounds even though twinks are just people with gear?

…what?
