Had 6 characters in WoD with full PvP sets and 2100-2600k rating. Played arenas/battlegrounds 2-3 hours per day like any other moba, fps multiplayer out there. Blizz just do not understand what quick easy non time consuming pvp plays entails. Legit the most stupid decision ever to remove the perfect system they had in WoD.
With easy to access pvp gear that scaled for pvp and had unique pvp stats making it bis for pvp. Super easy to balance around as well since it was more less required for high end pvp you could give classes that scale well with certain stats less of in on their set, even if they whine and moaned, ez nerf. Everyone having the same baseline HP as well with equal ilvl across the board. Man did they screw themselves with legion and onwards coz their egos could not handle teams A:s efforts far surpassing their own.
When people play pvp games they just wanna get in to the action. Imagine if CSGO, CoD, Apex legends, Dota, valorant, LoL had a bunch of daily chores you had to do before you played⊠GL WITH THAT! âBut its an MMOâ, yea and there were a plenty of MMO elements in there, thou blizz made the big distinction or again team A did the brilliant move in TBC and continued on that track until team C current team for WoW wrecked it all in legion.
WoW was always a casual game quick to give you action. Dunno how blizzard could forget that with their now chore of warcraft.
I donât know I had lots to do in wod and the way pvp gearing worked made doing pvp fun because you were not forced to do the boring slow gear grind we have now if blizzard desided in their infinite wisdom to nerf your class to 6ft under.
Also I enjoyed leveling in wod a lot more than I did in SL.
and the biggest benefit for having many alts was the garrison and the gold gain.
When you get to max level you choose what you want to do, PVE or PVP or something else.
Why is it a side game? PVP has been in WoW since it started, the whole concept of WoW is Alliance vs Horde, which was BGS in Classic and then they added Arenas in TBC.
but you do need to do boring pve content to be competitive
It takes literally forever to gear up an alt just by doing Bgs because of this bs system. You donât get gear from winning random battlegrounds or arena skirmishes like you use to.
Not to mention youâre facing off against 200ilvl people who have mythic+ gear.
Have you even seen how awful pvp is right now? People are getting deleted in 3 seconds.
You need to do pve to just for your legendary otherwise youâre in a huge disadvantage.
Classes out here getting carried by covenant abilities
Donât mind him.
He is one of those brain washed morons that copy paste whatever they see or read on the Internet.
Wow was mainly based pvp game with pvp gear since the get go of vanilla, whole concept of horde vs alliance was pure pvp thing.
