I am unbelieavbly excited about this change. I don't quad box much anymore, but I have been slowly 2 boxing all my alts to 80 recently. I have half the classes to 80 already, and the other half sitting at 70. When I originally solo leveled my preist I went into BGs at 51 and leveled to 60 purely from BG token turn-ins. Had full rank 10 gear and exalted gear from all 3 factions the minute I dinged 60. Then they basically got rid of the ability to level purely from BGs in TBC. I am SOOO happy that they are bringing it back.
My predictions:
1) Old school BG grinding teams steamrolling PUGs in all brackets. (I am actually excited for this, I am one of the insane few who wants the old lvl 60 pvp system back, and I know my friends and I are going to be slam-dunking hundreds of WSG flags :thumbsup: )
2) AFKing making a comeback. With the reporting system I hope it wont be too much of a problem, but giving bigger rewards for BGs is going to cause more people to want to scam the system.
3) Better BG preformance on both sides. Most people kill on the roads or in midfield because they are just in the BG to have fun. They don't really care about tokens or honor. This new system will hopefully attract people who want to win for the rewards, and will therefore play more intelligently (which in my opinion makes it even more fun).
4) Specifically multi-boxing will become more viable. From what I understand people have been having success in BGs with lots of differnent class combinations. Anything that takes the focus away from arenas and puts it into BGs is good for us.
I think I said excited like 5 times. It is going to be awesome.
