I have to admit its tempting to do it to a jerk, but that would make you just the same as them.
I think he brings up a valid point and he's right about your behavior. The potential abuse of the system makes it an easy way to grief people; as is why Blizzard didn't make this an option before. We get enough hate in the BGs as it is - there's no reason to generate any more - especially using a tool that could be easily used against us as you so quickly pointed out.
The moral high horse is so fucking high for some people if you jumped off of it you would kill yourself. Your no more more devout or pious than any other player so please stop acting like it.
Kids!!! Stop bickering! Jeezus
Back on topic... lol
I went into AV last night on my level 70 druid team. Queue took awhile, 20+ minutes, I'd say. Went in, we took out two towers, but got wasted on the bosses, because of lack of a decent tank. We bounced aggro around for awhile on the first one, but ultimately failed.
Needless to say, I think I'll stick with questing only until things get fixed.
I did one this morning, unfortunately I didnt pay attention to the xp. We rolled up to drek and bounced aggro until he died. From that I can conclude he is either A: nerfed or B: we had a bunch of 79s that could hit him. Im thinking A.
Nice to see the community so friendly that they attack people openly now and don't even seek clarification before denouncing someone for something they disagree with. Had you taken the time to ask me why I did it you might have found out that I wanted to see if the rumors were true about people being able to abuse the AFK system because of the booting. I tested this theory ONCE and shared the info about it because I think it has the potential to be abused.
Sad thing is most of you insulted people commenting on my post and not even me. Makes me wonder why I even come here anymore.
Edit: I should have put sarcasm tags around the last line of my post about the afk thing, but I assumed people would get it and not think I was out to grief people.

Lol, I'm trying to avoid this conversation continuing, but as a multiboxer if your true intention was to see if the rumors were true, then luckily enough you have your own team you can test it on!
I'm sorry people are getting upset about being called out for a choice they made. I'm not taking the moral high ground here, I'm just calling an apple an apple. Now that I know you can do this, I'm sure there will be more than a few times I'll consider booting an annoying person, and I may even act on it. Doesn't mean I won't recognize that I was being a jerk.
If you're going to act like a d*ck, then the least you can do is not cry when someone calls you out on it. Just accept that it was a d*ck move, you made the choice, and that's life.
ok... so back to the topic: Anyone run some definitive xp analysis yet? I mean as a percent of level just to see where 2x heirloom will put you (about even? less?)
God I love the internet. Who was getting upset? Certainly not I. I think you give yourself too much credit on who values your opinion. I couldnt care less what other player think , I will continue do it because I enjoy imagining how pissed off they are after they get kicked. Man its insane how great it is to get under another persons skin over a video game. How are dem apples?
Wish I could change my name to Dickhead. Mods make it happen.:cool:
Were you getting 19k before?
Gonna do a game right now. Will record results.
I ran AV last night on my 78 druid group (level 78, not 78 of them...). No heirloom items, got Galv and 3 towers down before we lost. Each objective was worth approx. 13k I believe. 13 and change, I think. I remember thinking it was almost 6k shy for each objective from what it was like last week before the initial nerf and resulting hotfix.
So overall for the 6 objectives in a match, you'll be down 36,000 exp for an all towers down win. Not terrible...
I pulled about 250k/hour for the time I was in there, reset the counter just prior to the gates opening. Not terrible, but not quite the same...and the last half of it was a total clown show with us pushing vainly against a wall of horde at FWGY and no one pushing through.
The upside: I was a friggen wrecking ball with the druids, lol...that was sweet.
What level are you?
LvL 77
I was getting 18-19k for Bal and towers pre patch. Honor for sure is less.
Bal- 12336
14803- both heirlooms
Honor: 89
Towers- 12336 each
14803- Both heirlooms
Towers: 89 each
Wingmaster: 4112
4934 both heirlooms
Win 16450 160 honor
19740- with the 20% I am guessing I didnt have heirlooms on when we won.
Winning with towers still up
each tower 8224
adding 20% 9868 again guessing since I didnt have heirlooms on
All in all still pretty good. honor seems low though, not sure.
What about leveling up in WSG and AB before you hit lvl 60 or 70? I'm wanting to grind these before these level ranges and with my teams that haven't even made it out of their 20s yet. How's the xp gain for these now? Unable to box where I'm at now cause of crappy net connections, so I'll give it a go when I get back home Sunday night.
WSG is no good if you dont cap any flags and lose. You get nothing. At least in AV most, if not all, games you can get one tower down or the miniboss. At least WSG ends in 20 mins, run an xp/hr meter and let us know!
I've had better luck in AB that WSG. Atleast in AB, if my main or slaves die, I don't have that far to run to get them back from the graveyards.
That's certainly a valid point, lol. If AV was back to pre-nerf with 2 heirlooms then I would consider using it again, however I dont think I can stomach anymore AV. It's like barrens chat with a PvP element. Makes you want to gouge your eyes out.
