Hey all! Just starting out and I've been doing a lot of research since recently getting faced rolled on occasion running an arcane mage 01-46. I realized that this was more than a communicated and coordinated effort via pre-made groups. What I didn't know was that even if you turn XPOFF, you're still entering a BG with others who may not have turned off XP. After I started looking at some of the gear these people were wearing, I thought why would you work so hard for only a couple hours of fun before you level out of the bracket. So I shut off my XP and to my surprise, the queue time was the same and I entered battle with a bunch of regular players! It used to be you only entered with other XPOFF players and queues were ridiculous. So I said, well I'm freakin' doing that!

Sorry to sound naive like I've been under a rock or something, but I took a break for a while from WoW and have only recently returned. Before I took a hiatus, I used to just roll a toon, run 10-19's, hit 20, delete, rinse and repeat. I have always loved the low level BG's and have been interested in twinking, but never wanted to wait on the long queues I heard about. I have a 43 Horde arms warrior and a 46 Horde arcane mage that are very fun to play in this bracket. been thinking about locking them down at 49 and grinding out the gear I need for them. I saw this thread and figured I'd make an introduction, join the discord and get crackin'

Just a few question if I may?

When did Blizzard change the XPOFF queuing?

Realistically how lengthy is the gear grind for Warrior/Mage?

Does Horde run this bracket daily/weekly?

Would this be a fun bracket to run for a first time twinker? I would do 10-19's, but don't want to really run with those on starter accounts, as it does not seem like it would be a good challenge. I've read that 30-39 is also a good time.

Anyway sorry for the lengthy post, but thought you should get a feel of where I'm coming from.

Thanks for reading,

Veeble

I believe the xpoff queing was either removed in WoD or Legion.

Mages are geared differently i'd say depending on which spec you're going to play. I think you'd still be solid gearing for postmasters set which drops from stratholme for any spec you play which isn't very hard. Warriors are also not very difficult to gear, as from what i've seen the only necessity is sulthraze and after that you're free to gear at your own will, whatever stats you prefer etc.

I wouldn't say horde run the bracket, the reasoning for this is simply the numbers on alliance. I'd say horde definitely have more significant players, but alliance just outnumber us often.

I feel like playing 49s as your first twink bracket is good. From my experience, plenty of the players are friendly and willing to help you with any questions you might have. It's a very interesting bracket since bfa differentiated 49s by giving them a pvp talent which makes a huge difference when comparing it to lower level brackets.
 
I've got this Arcane Mage locked down, It's been pretty fun so far. Still working on things like rings, trinkets and weapons.
