Follow In Battlegrounds Broken After 5.2

However, 90% of your customer demographic seems to be heavily against boxing

You mean 90 percent of the customer demographic that posts on the forum in which boxers threads are read by 5000 at the very most.

I am sure we are hated by 5 percent and 95 percent could care less eaither way.

I did read that they are looking at putting /follow back into arena and did admit there was not a botting problem there

And I don't see where /follow has been removed from rated battle grounds.

Again I dont see why any of you are quitting.

1) If you are not on a pvp server then how do you complain about lack of pvp; clearly you were not so interested in pvp from the start.

2) If you are on a pvp server there are all kinds of places you can go for pvp; the new thunder isl quests, the world bosses, the enemy capitals.

3) If you want gear then do rated battle grounds and take the cheap win when your oppenets dosnt show up, its fast and totaly legal. Its not your fault that your oppenets are so frightened of your prowess they leave before the battle starts. (actually they might hate the map, one of them had a bad connection, they argued amoust themselves aboutt stratagy and someone left so they all left, or they saw you names all the same and thought they might lose).

Tell me exactly what you cannot do to replace whatever you did AV for.


There are SO MANY ways to get gear in this game; trade skills, quests, raids, world pvp. You can get raid gear and use pvp gems if you want pvp gear, its just goes on and on. And your boxer you dont NEED 522 in each slot to faceroll people.



I did try AV a couple of times, first time I said nothing and they reported me for being a bot; second time I said I was a boxer and would hearth to the boss and play defensive. I did but what kind of a game is that 30 ally attack me when I zone in, I do a bunch of aoe and die, and hearth in again and delay them a bit and die again and hearth in again and delay them and bit and die again. Thats just stupid so Iam doing the thunder isl quests as I dont have much else to do. And the world bosses but already did Galeaon and Sha this week.

IWT is poision if your target dies you run all over the place. the mammonth works somewhat but .... all these work arounds are not practical for casters, maybe mellee is ok not sure.

While everything you're saying is true, some of us just enjoyed boxing in BGs. In world PvP you can't really do it much, they call more people and in a matter of minutes the PvP is over with you dead. In BGs at least it's a controlled environment where sometimes you pwn and sometimes you get pwned. Winning all the time or losing all the time is not fun either way.

Sam - I LOVE bg's and I am an ach whore so I am still farming my warsong and Arathi Basin reps also, I am on a pvp server and as much as world pvp is fun in a lot of ways - how am I meant to gear up for arena and RBG's - BG's are the easiest way to get gear in order to explore the game and have more fun, raiding died for me after wrath (don't even do LFR) and I am not interested in any type of raiding gear what so ever. I am not going to be going into RBG's to lose and get points I play to win and win in every way I possibly can. I have cancelled all my accounts and after playing since Vanila I am pissed and will not be coming back till something is resolved with this.

The mammoth isn't a solution as they are starting to do account suspensions for it and the GMs are offering no help in getting them overturned.

One person getting suspended for it doesn't mean much.

I used it all weekend to gear my dks and no suspensions or bans

Well, they can only suspend you if you're reported. But if other people learns this method is bannable, more will start report in the future.

After this I wouldn't be surprised at all if future patches removes follow in both raids and dungeons as well. Blizzard have clearly shown they don't care about people using follow. It already started giving us problems in phased zones in Cataclysm and then crossing CRZ zones made us drop follow as well.

Fixed it for you.
