    Can anyone explain how the BG queue works?

    All the BGs I’ve played in for the past two years have been XP-unlocked. Both Horde and Alliance queued separately and individually, meaning they were not grouped. (I mainly played Alliance, but for testing purposes, I also opened my Horde accounts.) In some cases, the characters I queued were...

    Can anyone explain how the BG queue works?

    As all of you must already know, BG queues are especially long (excluding the 10s and 20s BGs), taking on average more than an hour to pop. I tested the following: I opened several accounts and set one level 35 to queue for a BG. When the BG popped and I entered, there were only 3 to 5 players...

    Is this really bannable??

    why would you want to risk it ? why not just go do few extra steps ? i run my own 5 man dungeons .. carrying my own alts, the only thing i do is put them on "follow", stop "follow", or whole team stay far away from boss, main kill boss and everyone come forward to loot .. gotta manually click...

    Is this really bannable??

    i have at least 4 wow screens on at the same time on each monitor .. while watching movies, listening to music, or scrolling dating sites at the same time for the past 20 years .. nothing happens to me

    Farming Twink Gear

    if you run solo, every boss drops something for you .. if you run in 2s or 3s or more, each boss only drop 1 (sometimes randomly they drop twice, or even 3 times, very rarely, but the standard is once) .. so if you want to run in group, run in 5s, but you will need 5 accounts to do that

    WOD Timewalking

    :) yes this is a good trinket .. it drops only for healers (loot set to healing spec) .. most of my hunters are equiped with it (trade in dungeon).. good for any class with weak healing .. i been using this for a long time .. in bg, its about 2 times stronger than 3rd wind potion, and best part...

    Hellscream's Warbow vs Item Level 96 GS Ranged Weapon

    look at Rapid Fire and Aimed Shot, they will both likely have a higher dmg when you use BOA bow .. the range of Rapid Fire and Aimed Shot will also be longer due to the mastery stats .. when you need to do a rough calculation of hunter dmg, you can use 2 mastery = 1 agil (just rough estimate)

    Calling All 39s

    the best gears still comes from SoO (lvl35, it has most of the secondary stats mix needed, and it procs terts too), with max sockets and Queen's Garnet gem.. neck from DF with 3 sockets and trinkets from WOD.. i make lot of 35-39 for bg purposes

    Take it up with Blizzard, not me.

    It's not so much that they enjoy the experience, but rather that 99% of players in random dungeons are primarily there for fast leveling. Anything that speeds up their progress is usually welcomed. So, most of the time, the grouping benefits everyone: one player there farming gear, the other...

    60 twink Gear

    AH gears are good mainly for class that needs mastery which cannot be found in BC socketed gears .. and all dungeon drops are random, which takes a long time to farm mastery gears. i did a small test at lvl41 where plate wearer has a unique 12str/12stam gems .. in full BC gears with 12str/12stam...

    60 twink Gear

    if you twink 61, then all gears can be bought from AH, ilvl357, this is good for class that relies heavily on secondary stats as AH gears come in the exact combinations your character needs (you can choose, for me its max mastery and min versa), and also some of them proc sockets.. this method...
