Why is Ravencrest a Horde realm?

Community General Discussion

So it says that Ravencrest is supposed to be Alliance dominated here:

Yet sharding makes it so there’s like 10 times more Horde players in world pvp than Alliance players.
Now my question: Why did Blizzard waste time and ressources for such a crap system? Remove sharding from the game, only use it for expansion and patch release, what an absolute fiesta. All my characters are in different shards even despite being on the same realm, what a joke

PvP realms have not been a thing since Legion and warmode is not realm specific so yeah… why would they offer you better rewards for warmode if you were dominating anyway. The only place where you’ll be free of sharding is on RP realms.

I see more alliance players than horde. Korthia is dominated by alliance players when I play.

My shards are like 5 40 man raids of Horde players and 3 Alliance players in total

Okay that should really not happen

if it was atleast close to 50/50 I wouldn’t complain for a second

If you want to be with your realm population more, you need to play in WM off. If you play in WM on you are sharded with just those that play in that mode.

All through BfA I played in WM on because of the power gain from AP and it gave us an extra 10%. As Anima has no power gain I don’t care about the extra. However the difference is noticeable. I see more Draenor players around me in WM off. In WM on it was people from all over the place plus it was russian roulette whether or not you were on a Horde or Alliance dominated shard. Sometimes you’d go to Mechagon and couldn’t move for Alliance. Other times it was all Horde.

Because majority of Ravencrest players do not keep wm on :man_shrugging:
Not really a rocket science.

Alliance is typically playing with WM off. Because otherwise we will be outnumbered due to the imbalance of factions.

Playing with WM off, I see almost only Alliance and only very few Horde :stuck_out_tongue:

Warmode has that effect, loads of Horde have it turned on to remove the alliance.

Same with Argent Dawn, it’s completely RNG what shard you get, sometimes it’s all Alliance or all Horde…

AD is an RP realm it shouldn’t be like that

13

There is only one shard in main capitals, but now it’s merged with other realms.

For example on WM on I see too many Horde from Defias Brotherhood, and barely any from AD.

That explains, why I keep meeting Alliance players In Lesser Visions of N’Zoth - Corrupted Uldum and Vale of Eternal Blossoms, all the time.:smiley:

Cheers.

The Horde players would disagree.

It’s quite funny, it’s weekend worthy.

You dont like being the minority faction - in a specific shard. But you want the system removed so you are the majority faction.

Does someone suffer from (faction) insecurity.
