Yeah, on second thought don't choose burning legion... it gets on my nerves...

The horde are constantly attacking southshore and astranaar, and occasionally other places... They bring level 50s, 60s, and a bunch of lower levels as well...

To attack areas traversed mainly by 20-30 alliance players... Which is lame in the first place, however:

The alliance never wants to fight back... We have high level players, but they're never anywhere to be found... If someone's under attack, usually the highest people who show up to defend are in the 40s, and not only that but we're still always outnumbered...

And I can't find a single person who has ever heard of an ALliance raid, and I don't believe they actually even exist...

Me and 3 people from my guild (levels 22, 24, 35, and me 42) went to the crossroads just to screw around with the horde... Attacking guards, dancing, etc... And within like... 10 minutes there are multiple 50s, 60s, and just an overall ****load of horde players there fighting back... AGAINST 4 PEOPLE...

It's so ****ing unbalanced it's not even funny... If only the level 50-60 alliance players would grow some balls and help us mid-lower players defend against the horde for a change...

And most of all, if only there was a point to PvPing in the first place...

After hearing how PvP is done in WoW, I really really hope when City of Villains comes out (expansion or new game, depends) and they have full fledged PvP, its done in a really well manner.

I just switched to Eoner, so I guess everyone can wait with baited breath for when my Dwarf Hunter arrives on Tuesday.

Jonbo, what's wrong with the PvP?? They haven't implemented the Honor system, that rewards PvPing.

Anyway, my girlfriend's here and she won't let me play.

Well, all I ever hear for WoW PvP is people being ganked, high lvl people attacking lowbies, exploits where you get forced into PvP mode. Sounds like a real big mess that Blizzard seems to be having a hard time fixing.

And that is why you don't go on a PVP server. There are normal servers you know, they make up nearly 85% of the total amount of servers. I've had no problems what so ever on Eonar with PVP. If you want to fight, turn on PVP, if not, get on with your business. PVP is actually done quite well in this game, especially compared to the crap that is EQ, or the pathetically boring and stupid FFXI set up.

I do find that generally the horde are more active in raids than alliance on most servers. I think most people that would rather just raid and terrorize instead of questing and stuff would usually join the horde the begin with, as they are basically an evil and menacing type of group. On Eonar there is a lot of alliance raiding activity however, in fact it's pretty well equal on that front. Mainly its just horde attacks astranaar, alliance retaliates on crossroads, etc. Although some of the major raids have been insane.

And now there's the new battlegrounds specifically for PVP, which looks awesome. I think I heard something like you can command tanks and gryphons and such to reak havoc, and the whole thing is like one big large scale war. Looks fun.

I do know about the non-pvp servers. But isnt there some bug/exploit where on a non-pvp server, you can still enter pvp mode? Or am I confusing it a bit?

But eh, I won't ever be playing WoW after hating the beta so I'll leave this thread in peace
