Triple Boxers CAN make a difference!

Personally, I looooove TB. If I'm online and it's 30 minutes until a TB pops, I'll extend my playtime in order to queue for it. I hope Blizzard implements a system like TB into a standard BG. It's a ton of **actual PvP** in a 40v40 environment - and you're forced to PvP in order to do just about anything (except destroy the towers).

Aye, I was disappointed that there will be no "TB/WntrG" in MoP. But they claim there will be better open world PvP.. well see 8)

Yea, I dont buy it. AV is widely regarded as the bg to gear up in and to a lesser degree the other 40 man. Most of the time youre fighting against newbie 85s in greens and people gearing up. The majority of the people could care less who wins and just want the honor so they can get the fuck out of those bgs. Listen people pay their money and they can play anyway they want, but I find it sad that people pay all this money for extra accounts just to win AV and Ualaa I am talking about the large amount of AV screenshots and the like around here and other places. You could give 5 accounts to anyone and they could do well in AV, killing 85s in greens with zero resil is hard and that is all muti boxing AV shows. Deploying some strategy like holding a pvp choke point is laughable when most players are running around like chickens with their heads cut off or standing frozen like a deer in headlights because the enemy is blocking their path and in general AV is where most people start when they are learning how to pvp beacause it is the most forgiving. Its comparable to a bully, you do it because its easy and the advantages of boxing shine through in AV with focus firing against low resilience newbs and without having to deal with vehicles or more evenly matched skirmishes in smaller bgs,rbgs and arenas. Pve races only emphasize my point about people wanting to get honor by the quickest means possible for gearing up purposes and could care less about any kind of pvp. Arguing about the imbalances and tactics in AV I find meaningless and boxers boasting about how great they were in AV is hilarious when any simpleton can do it.

Would have been a lot easier to read, if it was less of a big block of text...



Anyone who pursues PvE or PvP gearing, even only somewhat seriously, is going to out-gear the opposition most of the time.
If I take my toons into the other faction's cities... sure there are some with decent resilience, but I outgear 95% of the players I encounter.

Five is going to consistently win against one or two... whether in AV, STV, or behind a bar downtown.
Boxing in general, is a very significant advantage wherever you PvP because of the focused fire; sure it has its disadvantages as well...
I'm sure many boxers started, because they wanted that advantage...

You can look at boxing as a bully, if you want.
It doesn't really prevent anyone from having fun when they box.
War isn't fair, and each side will do whatever they can to secure an advantage to win; even in a raid, boxing gets you multiple rolls, for the one piece to your final guy.

Maybe we should add to the appeal of AV with:
- It's forgiving because many are learning and most are under-geared here.

And also add:
- At maximum level, with some level of PvP gearing... you can go into farm mode on inexperienced and under-geared opposition, whether for achievements or epeen.
