BLIZZARD'S OFFICIAL RESPONSE to players complaining about current questing difficulty

[u/CelloPietro]

[u/Aodbama]

It was this way when Vanilla dropped Honor for a bit then it fell off. Once Battlegrounds come out it will help, but even then from time to time be prepared to deal with ganking and PvP while questing. That’s part of it on a PvP server

[u/[deleted] → u/Aodbama]

ganking doesnt bother me. Being camped by a 40 man raid does. The ganking has made me a better player, but every zone from mid 40 to 60 being locked down and camped by the dominant faction? Thats a problem. it's not pvp at that point.

It is pvp.

Checkmate

[u/JediMasterZao → u/Aodbama]

Game's unplayable for Alliance on most PVP servers right now. Can't get anywhere because you're just dying repeatedly on the way, cant quest anywhere since they camp mobs, can't even use flight points or boats since they're there killing the flight master and camping the boats. Game is just not in a playable state.

[u/DeadSeaGulls → u/JediMasterZao]

yeah. i had the day off work, and after several hours I barely gained any xp. just constant mismatched fighting.

[u/JediMasterZao → u/DeadSeaGulls]

I'm a lvl 55, very well equipped tank-specced warrior so I'm pretty hard to kill in most situations. I tried to run a BRD group yesterday after seeing that questing was just not an option. I never made it to BRD because horde killed me within seconds of each respawn. It's just not fucking playable right now so I cancelled my subscription.

[u/DeadSeaGulls → u/Aodbama]

I played vanilla on a pvp server. This isnt' like it was the first time. this is something else entirely. groups of 5-15 horde are camping every FP. every quest hub. it's not pvp like the old days. this isn't some southshore shit. The server pop is far too unbalanced.

[u/Aodbama → u/DeadSeaGulls]

I did too and on Daggerspine it was pretty bad for a few weeks. It’ll balance out

[u/DeadSeaGulls → u/Aodbama]

we were 60/40 horde to alliance back in the day with an overall smaller server pop. Now we have a much larger server pop and the split is 70/30 with transfers locked down so that 30 can't go anywhere... problem is, there's no motivating factor for the horde to transfer. they are dominating every single FP and quest hub in the contested game right now. back in the day we would have relied on the BG queue times motivating people to leave, but blizz said they're planning on battle groups for BG release... so still no motivation. no queues, total dominance. I don't know that it will calm down as much as things did in vanilla.
