I am not going to make any statements regarding my opinion on what's below, but I will include some facts so you can form your own opinion.1. All of these were solo que'd1. I played the same class/spec2. There is no pattern in the time of day that I played. Basically, when I had the opportunity to play, I did.

problem is gear matters but there is no easy quick way to achieve a minimal gear set to competealso no easy way to get a competitive BIS pvp set, the conquest system gives tons of useless gear and doesn't allow us to focus the slots we really need, AND is substantially lower power level than mythic plus gear and raid gear.I'd argue that gear mattered less when EVERYONE could get BIS pvp gear from conquest. Now BIS is available to only a few and everyone else has to endure a handicap.The original wow team already had a nice system figured out with vendors and honor/conquest currencies. Template…

hell noone of my favorite things to do is level via bg's instead of the incredibly tedious quest system or repetitive dungeon systemlets increase our play options, not restrict them

activision/bliz wants a casino, players want a fun gameI miss the original WoW designers who also wanted a fun game, they've been bailing since late MoP

timewalking needs to be scaled down a bit in difficulty, more forgivingjust another time sink that doesn't need to be so tedious

its a horrifically boring time sink for almost no rewardreally bad design

twinks chase out all the normal people from low level bg'sIt was best back in the very old days where people could get better gear, but not godlike twink gear.Godlike twink gear just destroys participation and ruins the game for too many players. It was also balanced when twinks had to 'xp off' into a separate bracket, to avoid losing all the gold they invested into their twink.Mixing twinks and casual players is just bad design.

Cept I see wins almost every time against undergeared teams. Think the max delta in the current scaling goes to 20% or more, plus azurite traits. Extremely unintuitive this new system.Anyways, my point is that maybe the scaling needs a higher floor or there needs to be a set of honor gear that is much faster to acquire, to achieve a minimum competitive gearing floor.

Entire UI and movement system is not setup for it, along with the artificial sluggish movement.Yeah I know sometimes we get a buff to make underwater the same as normal but frequently we have to swim around at swim speeds.Why does bliz consider this fun? How many other people like the sluggish underwater encounters? Bliz is now talking about raid fights underwater with the slowed movement. Looking forward to that?

The reason I feel like this is happening is because I can reliably count on a win every single time we substantially outgear the other team. Works in arena as well.New players have no way to get caught up very quickly, it's quite a slog for a few weeks unless they are doing some pretty repetitive grinding in pve.If anything, I'd rather we were motivating MORE participation in pvp.
