Yes. It’s effectively a free bonus, hence the extra bonus + pvp quest for outnumbered:
- Designed to increase outnumbered in region.
- Decrease non wpvper outnumberers in region.
- Result = reduced requirement for single faction shards.
Not working well in 8.2, was kinda working pre 8.2. But would prob be much worse without extra bonus for outnumbered, and could improve again as more get initial 8.2 stuff done.
According to our survey, majority of WM forum feel outnumbered half the time or less. That seems reasonable to me.
