As the title states , it’s actually hard to find anyone to pvp against. So what’s the point of war mode if no one pvp’s ? Why do you have warmode on permanently and yet never kill a single ally or horde or participate in any world pvp at all.
Are the bonuses your incentive ? If it’s just the bonuses then blizz needs to switch them off or bring back old school pvp servers because it’s ridiculous.
I See no allies at all , when I do they just fly off as quick possible. I’m not even amazingly geared. Tbh i’m kinda nerfed compared to most players.
Go on Alliance , I see no hordies at all. When I do it’s 3vs 1 or 5 vs 1.
Warmode is a joke , if blizz announced it was switching back to how it was 2 years ago ? Would you approve or disapprove of this choice ?
I have been saying since the start there should be no bonuses that benefit PvE players. PvP servers didn’t have them. It was a choice to be on that kind of server, although many ended up very unbalanced.
It’s a very nice boost to levelling on Alliance as well as they get more than the base 10% that the Horde always get.
Agreed the choice should be simple , don’t like to be killed in the world or face off other players in the world. Turn warmode off.
You like the idea of confronting members of the opposite faction , turn it on.
Not let’s have it on because xp bonus , currency bonus , gold bonus and other crap it’s wrong way of dealing with it. Because you end up with tons of horde with WM on who never face an Alliance player. Alliance players see the numbers of horde with WM on and think oh errr bit out numbered here I think i’m going to turn it off.
I use WM primarily for the bonus, I do my CTA during the week but I seek out a specific group in the finder for that, the rest of my weekly conquest cap I can fill with doing the assaults/invasions or the odd BG.
The problem with that in turn is everyone who has WM On. Then have the audacity to complain that they are getting killed doing WQ’s because they are " raiders only". Well why the heck have you got it turned on in the first place if you’re " raider only".
Like, if you are going to complain about getting killed in a PvP mode that is purely consentual, then you are just stupid. I love the salty tears, and watching people having a psychosis over getting ganked
Good… That allows PvPers to gank you if they are strong enough. Entire idea of PvP realm is to have no escape when you are not willing to participate. Take it away and entire ecosystem will crumble.
WPvP can be fun, so I have it on for both pvp and for the bonuses. If some horde is stealing all the objectives, well hey, now I get to teach them a lesson. The only time when warmode is not that fun is when a premade group ganks you 5vs1 with you obviously not having a chance at winning, but then it’s about knowing to retreat and not challenging them, or making your own group in retaliation.
That’s actually what I did sometime ago. There was this group of noobies hunting me for whatever reason, I even killed one of them in a 4v1 situation, but obviously it’s a little too much for anyone to just kill all of them, so instead I got a couple of dudes from pvp group finder and then in turn ganked them. Was pretty fun.
I do like the occasional world pvp but mainly my warmode is on because without wm on some of the classes feel horrible and boring to play without pvp talents.
Its the main reason why i hate all the instanced content i bfa.
As someone who HATES PvPing I can tell you why I use warmode.
I never PvP and I don’t want to PvP. The only reason why I use warmode is because of 25% extra rewards. Why would I not want to get 25% extra coalesing visions, azerite, gold etc? As a strict PvE player there is no reason for me to not have warmode active.
I hate Blizzard for this. PvP and PvE should be two COMPLETE separate things.
The current state of PvE vs PvP is trash. PvEers have to do PvP to get the weekly cache and azerite essences and vice versa, and they also have to use warmode.
I still think that PvPers have it worse though because they can’t get geared properly from PvP. All the high ranked PvP players use almost exclusively gear that they’ve got from m+ or raids.
It’s ridiculous in my opinion.
Feels necessary to level efficiently with it on, especially if you’re a SP for the instant Void Eruption cast [which should be base lined tbh, along with Legacy of Void needing to be Tier 1, why it’s last tier God knows…].
I personally am currently in the process of being bribed by Blizzard into activating warmode. It gives me extra resources, currency and artifact power. Also more exp during leveling.
I used to play on PvP servers my whole world of warcraft life.
Ever since warmode happened, I stopped caring about PvPing in the open world.
People aren’t there, for the PvP experience, they aren’t there because they enjoy beating up other players or having a real fight for Quest NPCs, they just want to do their stuff and receive the bonus that comes with it. That’s what I’ve quickly realised and ever since, I’ve stopped provoking or attacking others, because honestly, what’s the point of simply being a nuisance to other players? That’s pretty far away from my idea of “fun”.
I’d be down. I’d also be down if warmode didn’t give any boni whatsoever, because quite frankly, if you have to bribe people into activating a specific mode, it’s simply proof of a failed concept. If you don’t even attempt to bribe people into activating it, only people who ware interested in it will actually activate it.
