Hi, first of all my english sucks but I hope u can understand that I'm trying to say.
I just wanna share my opinion about pvp I've seen here. I never played vanilla before only since nostalrius release, I started with retail tbc so is my first time playing classic and I fell in love with this server. I´m lisening all your advices if I´m wrong.
Now, my little guide to get PVP GEAR on vanilla, only my personal experience.
1- Do some bgs each week and get rank 8 or similar, it's easy, u can reach it with about 50-100k weekly honor.
1.5- You can try to get rank 9-10 by yourself if you have lucky with your partners but if you want more..
2- Look for premade, play with your premade 24/7, 95% of times u gonna play vs afk's pugs or ppl tired to play vs your premade, so you gonna play 10vs4 6minutes warsongs, 15vs7 1500-0 5min AB, ofc don't qeue av if you wanna rank, waste of time with decrease honor when someone die. (nice job for staff allowing only pugs on av, longs av well playeds can be fantastic here).
3- If you faced other premade just switch bg, dodge it, is more easy play vs pug and win in 3minutes, is more fast honor.
4- Repeat, repeat, honor, honor.
6- If you don't have family, girlfriend and dog and you have telepizza number you also can try get rk14 with this method.
I´m wrong guys?
After this, where is the fun part here? I´m a little tired of seeing 80% of ranks 11/12/13 premades are autistic backpedals, clickers and other shits playing 24 hours farming others shits, yes, you can get epic gear despite being bad but, this is funny? you enjoy play vs afk's and other autistic's tards?
I have also seen good people and is the same history, playing vs afk's, if you qeue as pug 70% of times you play vs premades and your mates don't wanna play lmao.
This IS NOT A CRY about vanilla pvp "mechanics", I know vanilla have +10years and ofc mechanics are differents and some things are broken, despite this I find vanilla pvp funny and with engineering stuffs is so fun.
This IS NOT A CRY because I´m bad and no one wanna play with me xD, I was glad on retail (on wotlk), rival on AT blablabla who cares, and fortunately I did not have trouble finding mates here, I´m only played premades till rk11 for mount and all "blue" pvp gear and I don't want a higher rank, don't have time to play 24hours now like before and my harcore times ended a long time ago.
This IS A CRY about all retardeds who prefer do boring this pvp, can be fun but you, players, make it boring as fuck, for pugs, for other premades and for yourselves.
solutions?
Allowing only premade vs premade and pug vs pug? I do not like at all, playing with friends is funny too
Changing the mindset of rat kid that 90%ppl have and playing to prove to be the best, for COMPETITIVNESS and not to prove who has more free time to play empty bgs? I like this more.
Waiting +tbc for arenas with same standing heros... I hear any tips, I find all vanilla things great except bgs.
see you!
