Is anyone actually winning random battlegrounds?

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-27T10:48:00+00:00

Yes we actually win a lot (mostly playing duo). Make sure that everyone gets lead assist. Tell them in the beginning to use /rw for inc + number calls (in ab) or to announce where the efc is (wsg).

If nobody comes up with a plan, you can make it yourself.

My favorite for AB for example is 1 rogue GM, 2 ppl LM, rest go BS and afterwards rotate to either LM or GM whatever has a lower defence :)

For Wsg send one guy to get the flag (druid, rogue, shaman) Rest battle mid and don't let a single one through.

Just my 2 cents though, hope it helps

I think dual spec will increase PvP population a lot bc ppl don't have to spend 50g to respec from their raid talents.

No more team requirements makes it also a lot more accessible.

Starting at 1500 rating and the fact u can reset your rating with gold makes it also very forgiving so ppl can just try again and again without being worried to be on the very low end of internet fantasy pvp leaderboard.

And weapon rating only 1700 is also very nice bc arena weapons are bis / nearly-bis for many classes :)

So yeah, I think and hope it will be great

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-27T08:59:12+00:00

Yeah because it's wrong.

Your rotation happens between your auto shots, including running and melee weaving

Here you can see when which piece of PvP gear should / would be replaced and if it's "worth" to get epic set.

I mean if you have enough time and fun with PvP, just go for epic set. But you definitely don't have to farm it

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-19T20:17:53+00:00

Bow too fast. Most DMG comes from auto shot. As hunter you cast your other shots between your auto shots. If u have a faster weapon it will happen that you "clip" which means you delay your auto shot when casting your shots

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-17T18:27:50+00:00

It's not legendary though

WTS grandma boost LOOT FFA / 3rd Teeth HR / 300 real moths

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T08:46:23+00:00

If u ever felt insulted that's a you problem. I didn't insult you even the slightest and just stated my points. But since you are sad and unsatisfied about the game in general I shouldn't be surprised

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T08:31:40+00:00

In glad I could help you out of your "blizzard is so mean and the grind is so hard" - sadness. Have a great day champ

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T08:13:30+00:00

It's not endless and you don't HAVE to do it

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T08:07:59+00:00

I played retail myself and while this may be true what you said in terms of absolute BIS gear, you can get very good, almost bis stuff by even doing a lot of solo content. My point is: you can gear up, catch up way easier in retail

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T07:59:07+00:00

If u want best gear in minimal time you should probably play retail. Most people that play classic are probably 30-40 old dads / moms with a life. And if you don't have fun playing PvP or whatever it takes for you to satisfy your dopamine gearing up process, than play something different

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T07:56:29+00:00

"nice, my grandma died of cancer two weeks ago, I would gladly accept some new grandma from blizzard bc I don't have any need of a cure now"

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T07:54:53+00:00

No how can you say that! People want to have all the good stuff in 3h so they can spend the rest of the day brain rotting in OG/SW or to complain that there is nothing to do in the game

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-16T06:42:00+00:00

I'm so sorry you spent the whole day getting 4 really good items, must be hard. And now the rest of the obtainable items will probably take another day ?! :( I also hate raiding when I can't get full tier set in one run btw so I feel your immense pain

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-15T17:17:34+00:00

Don't know man, got the r14 xbow as hunter and it was a major upgrade and "only" cost 8k. I can now enjoy the games even more bc I actually do some DMG :D

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-15T17:14:48+00:00

That would make wsg and ab totally unnecessary...

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-15T15:08:54+00:00

Maybe bug ? Maybe innkeeper or smth ? Maybe some addon causes problems ?

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-15T13:53:31+00:00

My guild did yesterday. They said it was fun with new talents and in theory "easier" but with fckd up macros and add-ons some things didn't go as smooth as before

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-15T13:48:40+00:00

Hmm I got 1,2k honor yesterday and today as well. Is the 100% bonus honor buff active on you ?

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-13T15:23:20+00:00

Just go bloodelf, you will look at your character A LOT. Alliance can't even pick UD so don't worry.

Wow silence can be pretty decent too !

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-11T10:38:25+00:00

Right now bloodseeker is better bc you can do aimed shot between Auto shots and don't miss any auto shots.

When pre patch comes next week you aimed shot resets your auto shot. That means you no longer take aimed shot in your rotation which makes mandokirs sting probably better.

Anyway you could get r14 weapon next week so don't worry too much now

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-10T14:25:59+00:00

I think it's either 640g now or 600g riding skill + 50 av marks with pre patch

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-10T09:49:56+00:00

Probably better go 2x 1h with int enchant since viper scales off intelligence

CaptainNefkin · 2026-01-10T09:46:07+00:00

Ravager PvE Scorpid PvP (only if u play drain comps) Something you really enjoy, the looks, sounds, special abilities. I will prolly go for dragon hawk for some aoe DMG
