PVP EXP Discussion?

[Lowcorn]

I wanted to ask what everyone thought about the new EXP gain from PVP and how it would effect the leveling of a multi box team. I cant think of any better way to level 5 shamans or warlocks or something. . . exp honor faction and possibility as justicar and other PVP tittles at 80? i mean. . . i dont see a downside. BUT because i tend to be narrow focused lol i wanted to hear everyone elses thoughts

I've got a big downside for you...queues. I spent 2 separate times in the queue for almost an hour and still haven't got in a game. 61-70 on my battlegroup is almost non-existant at the times I checked. There is sometimes a wsg or a av going but I couldnt get in them and I'm queuing up with 10 characters. I should at least be able to get a wsg going since I have the whole team.

I was looking forward to leveling 10 at once in bgs but it looks like it wont happen. At least not til the next bracket at 71.

are you useing the group cue? or preform?

I tried 2 separate 5 group queues and didn't get anything. So I downloaded enabler but that really only works when there are lots of games going. I would get 1 guy to get in a game every once in awhile but wouldnt take it because that wouldn't be very useful. I haven't seen 1 av going at once yet.

I think the xp amount is higher than they intended. I'm leveling faster at 77 than I was doing quests.

Don't get me wrong, I'm loving it, but I don't think it will last.

I tried this on a single char last night.

Got in 1 AV. We outnumbered the horde.
A quick 10 minute win and about 80-90k XP. This was a level 73 char.
I tried requeueing but logged out after about 8 minutes.

My one concern - I was in AV with level 80's.
I'm wondering if blizzard attempts to balance the teams in any way.
Perhaps filling up with as many 80's as are queued then working down through the levels.
Working on the principle that a lower level is better than no player at all.
Otherwise it would suck a bit if you pulled in a load of low levels and went up against a full complement of 80's.
(I suppose this will happen, but would have been a case of going up against 40 80's with only 25 80's on your team).

I tried this at 68 in AV with my paladins. Well it was one of those turtle AVs and I got shit for xp. So ya, sometimes you get an awesome fast AV and sometimes you get curbstomped and get very little to no xp. I found it was more reliable to actually quest than risk a bad AV.

There is a fair bit of discussion about this in this thread:
