i play bgs heavy since wratch to today around 5K games in warsong and dont even count others bg so yes 8 min quelle for ally bg is inndicative ppl not playing wow as much as before shadowlands …
They always half baked it, even in Legion.
I don’t have numbers but when it used to take 1min to do a Battleground vs 10 or more now, you can tell the population isn’t as big or the mode popular at all.
They need to re unite the player base by ditching PVP/PVE Scaling PVE gear should not be nerfed in PVP except for trinkets of course. Making all gear accessible for PVP will make more people play it. Or alternatively have PVE gear also go up in item level in pvp ok they may have low versa but im sure they will perform better on a level item level playing field pve players should be able to jump straight in too.
raid irrelevant few weeks into release, same dungeons over and over again, wow great xpansion much content

Ah yes after all that is why BFA and Legion, the two expansions with no difference between pvp and pve gear, were so succesful.
So succesful in fact that on r1 title handouts alone they were the least played seasons of all time.
Every single time they try and mingle pve and pvp gear it turns into an unmitigated disaster.
If you want the best gear for pvp, you do pvp.
If you want the best gear for pve, you do pve.
Simple as.

lol I’m female irl always get told , no pics , no proof i’m a g.i.r.l guy in real life lmao
Agreed with shadowlands being good df is miles better tho arguably the best expansion imo
That is correct and i like the fact that they have pvp vendors and PVP gear but what im saying is PVE gear should also get a item level boost when in pvp Except for trinkets why not ? more of a level playing field.
in MMOs there are lots of perks for being “girls”.
carried through content - free stuff such as gold - mounts - loot etc…
so guys are incentivised to pretend to be girls. cash in on those girl perks.

well I can tell you that’s all true until you mention two words " boyfriend" or " husband"
Then nobody wants to talk to you , play with you or interact with you.
Also if you’re not skinny and post a selfie on discord then they also stop talking to you or interacting with you. You become invisible so xD
Yeah men in wow only do that free stuff if you’re single , skinny and attractive.
People think male players are thirsty but they’re not , only if you hit those 3 categories or you’re nobody.

there is the myth that “real girls” play WoW. the meme in the vid exists before WoW.
umm some guys have boyfriends and husbands too. so that don’t mean much.
My point is that guys that pretend to be girls online can cash in on the “girl experience”. Those that go out of their way to declare they are “girls” usually are the Traps.

If you do that, then you run the risk that some PVE items will be omega broken in pvp. BFA, Cataclysm (vial of shadows), and Wotlk (Shadowmourne) come to mind.
In fairness, I do not think pvp gear should be upgradable either. It would be a flat bonus for pvp activity, thats it.

Why not ? Gives you something to look forward to dont you miss being able to obtain a powerful item ? For me it was a 475 gettiku with a socket on death knight. Also as long as the item is obtainable without having to do mythic raiding i dont see why that would be a problem for most players.
Because it means that everyone who does not have that item / does not want to spend time getting the said item because it is locked behind a type of content they despise, will be at a massive disadvantage vs those that do it.

I can understand the point you are making but if that item is in like one dungeon and all you have to do to get it is a couple of keys i would not care personally. Just a couple of runs to get it and thats it where as i would highly agree with you if this item was locked behind mythic raiding that would be a problem for most players. If they make kings rest as a mythic dungeon i would be hoping to get another gettiku and i main PVP. The whole point im making is that we should have an incentive to play both forms of the content it is good to have more people playing the content we play aswell it is healthy for the game.
i don’t doubt that- But enough people cared about having to do content they despise (raiding, m+) in order to do content they like (pvp), that BFA and Legion, the two expansions with the most homogenized gearing in WoW’s history, were complete failures.
Lowest participation numbers ever.
I mean it sucks it doesn’ work the way you want it to, but the game is far healthier this way.

Yes 100% mythic raiding yes but all they have to do with pvp Gear is add more secondary variety to the pieces to avoid forcing players to do too much content they dont want to do . If they make a dungeon that has a weapon like a gettiku just for an example it will encourage PVP players to go and play that content to get that weapon. My whole point is its better to have a united player base and not a divided one. The aim here is to get rid of scaling i love the fact we have PVP gear <3 The more people playing PVP the better faster queues

Why should you, Blizzard, or anybody else get to decide/think on my behalf what content I should enjoy and/or try?
Is it not the best system where eberybody can freely choose to do what they want and excel in the content of their choosing? Is that not best?
If people don’t play or test a system without being forced to and the moment those incentives stop they stop playing it, maybe they never enjoyed it in the first place.
Feel free to check how many m+ i did this expansion vs sl vs bfa, for one.
