How do you find an RBG team?

[Owltoid]

Since I get my weapons next week I feel I'm ready for RBGs. The problem is I'm on a PvE server (Dalaran) and I lack history (knight champion in vanilla and duelist on warrior in BC isn't very impressive). I've been on the lookout for solo healers to join me in random BGs and it has worked out well, but I would like to try rated for the challenge and increased conquest. Any suggestions on where to start looking?

You could try the oQueue addon.
www.solidice.com/oqueue

It was designed to network players who want to pvp.
Blizzard doesn't necessarily want people to use it for non-rated BGs, but you can queue with a raid for rated bgs.

You can join any BGs that you qualify for; the leader chooses what the requirements are for their bg.
If you're looking for rated ones, then only go for those.
You can alternatively start a group/raid, set whatever minimum resilience you want etc.

When you start with the addon, press the Find Mesh frequently until it doesn't let you push it any longer.
That is submitting your Real ID to the 'Mesh' of others who PvP with oQueue.

DUDE YOU'RE ON DALARAN?????? I was on that server too. Alliance but it became super dead so i transfered to KJ. You horde or ally? Anyways, getting off point, Yeah addon, or go to other realms and ask around. I think you can do cross realm rbg's?

Ya, I'm on Dalaran (Alliance). Have been for a long time, though I did jump on Mag (Horde) for a bit. Most of my toons were on Dalaran so I switched back and continued leveling my guild. If they had free server transfers for all my toons I'd take it, but with BattleTag IDs and the ability to group over servers I don't think there is a need.

Are you alliance?

Yeah im in LoB. I boxed on that sever for like a month and everyone was like "Woah, never seen that before." but conflicts with the guild i was in and no world pvp really rook a toll so i transferred. Hows the server nowadays? I dont know how succesful a boxer would be in RBG's. Never seen or heard of one doing RBG's. Id assume you would still run 5's tho?

He doesn't post much, but after stalking Nox it looks like him and Voot are 2400 RBGs. If everything is legit then they are proving RBGs are possible. I believe they're running DKs and enhancement teams (EU).

Id love to world PvP, but I rolled on this server because my RL friends wanted PvE. They quit long ago and it would be too costly to transfer everyone. I mostly just BG anyway, and with upgraded weapons I may farm heroics when bored. However, I've found that honor is decent for gold (buying those daggers for 105 honor that sell for 16g) and since I can't use it anyway I've been making some money to support enchants.

I just ran into Aelli this morning in AV. Hopefully do some RBGs together once he is geared. If anyone from LOB wants to give it a shot then let me know! Could be a fun experiment.

Doh, they're win trading? That's disappointing. Man, Blizz really needs to get control of this shit.

Didnt know I was linking anything....

Yes rbgs are filled with wintrades, lots of boxers too.

Back in Vanilla I bought gold so I could buy enough cloth to have my gnome gain Darnassus rep and be able to ride a tiger. It actually ruined the game for me because I knew I didn't accomplish it. Maybe it's the way I'm built, but win trading to gain gear/titles just ruins the fun for both those doing it and those suffering from the unearned gear advantage. Oh well, I'll keep trying to do it the legit way

Yeah, the dude's name was a linked to a site that we shouldn't be linking to.

My Bad.

Very noble - I personally view accomplishments in a video game differently. Noxx and Voot probably feel the same, sure we all know they cheated but they probably dont care.
