most active bracket for xp off bgs (wsg, ab)?

[ascoot]

I am thinking of making a new 60, 70, or 80. Either horde or alliance, it doesn't matter. I have toons to run myself through everything up through 80 raids on heroic most likely for both factions. Are there still people that play these brackets regularly, or will I find myself logging on to '??' minute qs for these bgs?

Really just want to make a fun guy that I can collect all the old loot that I would have never gotten unless I joined a raiding guild, but I would also love to pvp with it.

29s is but it's started slowing down, 19s is rapidly gaining momentum and there is a lot more community activity going on for the foreseeable future in 19s. 19s is were you want to be for WoD.

I think the real, OG 29s are getting frustrated, and watered down by the talentless 24s that leveled. I'm planning on going 19s, as far as p2p twinking goes, and continue to play endgame and f2p twink. I considered 29s, but after consideration, I can't take it seriously. I think 29 is a good level to twink at, but I think the future of 29s is wargarmes, actual arenas (not skirmishes), and solo pugging bgs. The whole idea that you could get in a balanced bg with a five man premade of 29s is pretty absurd at this point.

TL; DR: 29 twinking in f2p bracket is, at least, slightly scummy (not that I'm above a little douchebaggery, from time to time).





p.s. Since I have your attention. My main is currently on BH Alliance, so I think my first 19 will be Alliance. Is Alliance lacking any roles, such as healers?

Priests looks like they have most of their toolkit at 19? How to they compare to other healers?'

My second toon will probably be horde; I'll figure that out later. Thanks for any input, y'all.

20-29 is no longer the most active exp off bracket. 90-99 has 3-4 minute random queues during primetime and pops 24/7. Blizzard made a change last week that made exp off 90-99 players pooled together with 90 capped accounts (MOP expansion accounts). Previously 90's were in their own bracket.

90-99 is the new 20-29 for fast pops.

This is the reason I didn't end up in 29s again, i'm completely devoted to 19s at the moment, seeing some old names pop up again is something I think a lot of the older players are enjoying too, so it seems to me they will continue to gravitate to 19s, Wargames, and Premades will always be around at 29s, I believe in a competitive sense.

Alliance needs healers and ranged DPS, Discs or Resto Shams. Hunters, Brewmasters, Guardian Druids, and believe it or not Rogues who know how too coordinate, Boomkins are great. FC's who don't run away from their support and end getting ganked by Rogues continuously would be oh so wonderful, as well.

For low level twinking 19s.
