    Community impact of casual vs. competitive play

    This is a complicated topic. It's much easier to maintain house rules in a small community - particularly one that is insulated and private (like a wargame community) versus one that is open (battlegrounds). When the player base is very small (20 wargame arenas), it's easier for people to...

    Arena Ranked / New Website Arena Skirmish Ladder for Twinks

    Ty for your work, Eren. Sad it didn't pan out financially, but I think many of us will remember it as a highlight to what was vet twinking.

    Free gametime gift for vets

    A lot of bets when it comes to stat prio are off this xpac - but for protadins, I presume mastery is still the best stat.

    Viable classes

    No, they have the lowest damage of any class in the bracket. Rogue looks scary in dps terms compared to them. But both Rogue and DK do have amazing utility. So many slows, CCs, interrupts, etc.

    Viable classes

    They just see zero issue with Stormbringer? I get that it might not be making waves at endgame, but for literally any other part of the game they think that is okay?

    Viable classes

    Gotcha - for the three specs you mentioned (tests on pvp dummy and in duels): Balance: damage will be middle of the pack. I didn't test Starfall in BGs because frankly you will get destroyed, but that might add up over a close game to be substantial. Your offheals are absolutely godlike...

    Viable classes

    It's a tough question to answer because you're asking for a meta check. Nothing is viable in the sense that every class gets one shot by a decked out level 29 character. There isn't any meta. All of the cards in your hand have "You lose" written on them. Are you asking from a hypothetical 20...

    WTB pendulum of doom also have some items to sell

    For your 2nd and 3rd paragraphs, I don't really have anything to add. Your first paragraph's argument would be precisely the same argument that a price gouger of tangible commodities would use in real life. The value of a dollar is not the same person to person, state to state, country to...

    WTB pendulum of doom also have some items to sell

    The simplest way of addressing this question, cutting out the economic theory of low population ecosystems, is to ask the seller if he would buy a PoD for 124k. You're not going to get a sincere answer, but that's essentially what it boils down to in low supply, low demand economies. You don't...

    Let's save level 20 twinking... Squeaky wheel gets the grease

    Right, but literally only to other F2Ps. I don't think that's disruptive enough to the average WoW player for Blizzard to be bothered by it. I imagine logic something like this from Blizzard: "Don't want to be scammed? Pay for the game."

    Let's save level 20 twinking... Squeaky wheel gets the grease

    There really isn't a great reason that F2Ps can't be allowed to trade, invite, send mail, and whisper to one another.

    Class Tuning Incoming -- December 6

    I'm honestly still surprised they haven't gone the Final Fantasy route of raising the F2P level cap to 60. That just makes so much sense.

    Are you DF ready? Last minute advice thread for 29s

    Maybe mindless BG queueing hasn't ever been a balanced pvp experience? Maybe do what apparently 90-95% of this bracket has already done and move on to better things.
