PS. By a "joke", do you mean Horde just wtfstomp every game?

I was referring to the strength of the battlegroup.

All of the BGs are relatively even and insta queues for the most part.

Best battlegrounds right now are Stormstrike and Bloodlust, as always.

spronk · 10-15-2009, 10:30 AM

bloodlust Q's can be long (5-10 mins) for some BGs and horde still lose many/most games I think, maybe AV is the exception. The only people really queueing for BGs anymore are (1) bots (2) people with specific goals in mind (i need a gem, daily q, etc) (3) alts (4) retards.

You can play WG and make 15-20k honor in 30 mins. Used to be glorious when you could do it daily, but now its just every 4-5 days. Plus having a full set of PVP gear really doesn't mean much, since its fairly useless for PVE - any decent pug raid group will boot you if you show up in welfare PVP gear.

Although its funny how you can sneak in sometimes, I joined an onyxia25 pug last night in my new 80 warr who is in full season 2, level 70 PVP gear (leveled via AV 70-80) and nobody said a thing until the end when they noticed I was below tanks on damage. If I really care I would run him through heroics/toc5 and he'd be geared up in a few days to do 10/25 mans, but meh too much effort.

How could anybody really know which are the best battlegroups?

Based on how well known the top of the ladder is, how often they are at tournaments, how much of the SK-100 is made up of a BG's players, and so on.

One of the guilds on Blackrock(which is in Bloodlust) has a huge roster of basically the best players in the world.

Scaffa · 10-15-2009, 04:27 PM

Is that ^{?

They even get referanced on my realm, which is a scrub battlegroup European server.}

Brikker · 10-22-2009, 06:27 PM

Sorry for bumping this.

Anyone know of a server in the Bloodlust BG that has a good, healthy population of Horde PUGs?

I play pretty casually now and do about 50/50 pvp/pve; the Alliance on my current server (Cenarius) are okay for PUGs but Horde has about 15 people on the server.

spronk · 10-22-2009, 08:57 PM

over 50 pugs a week clear toc25 on blackrock horde, about 20 clear togc10, and 2-3 have gotten 1-2 bosses down in togc25

(all pugs not guild runs)

malganis is probably similar/better in terms of sheer number of players and pugs, but remember with the good also come a lot of retards, ninjas, etc

If you roll a DK and get him to 60 under the RAF program, do you guys know how many grantable levels they will have? I'm guessing it's at least 2, but 3 would be nice. (formula is that you're supposed to get 1 grantable level for each 2 levels you earn, but the formula stops at 60).

Sutekh · 10-23-2009, 01:08 PM

Cannot create a DK under the RAF program, well you can, but it's illogical, you've got to upgrade the RAF account to a normal account, then to a BC account, then to a WOTLK account.

So it's a gigantic waste of money.

Joavi · 10-24-2009, 11:29 AM

Looks like I've missed out on Sutekh's deal...Anyone else happen to be looking to do this?

Why would you want to do that? I don't get it, but it'd be 2.

The reason I asked is that I had a friend who I recruited with the RAF account and out time was running up. I had alts in the 40-50 range, so their other alts (who were lower) couldn't grant anymore levels. I was curious about the DK because then their DK at 60 would be higher and could grant a couple more levels to my alt.

I ended up trying it and the DK at 60 ends up with 3 grantable levels. Got an alt of mine from 39 up to 42 on that so it worked out well enough.

Anyone know of a decent site to buy the WoW CD keys from? I have WoW installed on my computer and was considering just buying the battlechest for $30 from Amazon and it dawned on me to seek out a place that just sells the keys for a reasonable price. After a bit of googling, the majority seemed a bit "dodgy" so I figured I'd ask here.

Game Code, Game Time, New Account CD Key, World of Warcraft, EVE, WAR, Xbox Live, Nexon, WoW, G1 can be trusted, but they are more expensive than Amazon on WoW codes.
