hey all pretty bored with wow at the moment and have most of my current characters where I want them and was thinking about trying to level 10-120 through just bgs/Skyrim’s, couple of questions:

1) will heirlooms with proper enchants and throwing enchants in random gear from bgs be at all competitive in the lower brackets or will I just get one shot all day?
2) are the xp gains doable or completely trash?
3) horde or alliance (que times?)
4) what class would you recommend?

Thanks!
 
heirlooms are fine until 110.they will actualy scale up in a bg even if you only have the 1/3 version. youll have to rely on bg drops or do some pve for AZ gear at 110 and above. dont save your bg reward boxes until 110 to open them hoping the rewards inside scale. they dont. youll get bags full of grey items.

pvp leveling is slow since you have to rely on how fast games pop and can be won.
 
dont forget the 50% extra xp from the trinkets returning champion/ defending champion ;)

Heirlooms with enchants are more than enough to be competent - even against twink players.

2) are the xp gains doable or completely trash?

The experience gains are doable. I've done 30-80 in 2 days of Battlegrounds/Arenas with only 1/2 of the 50%+ experience trinkets, earlier this expansion.

3) horde or alliance (que times?)

I dont think it really matters TBH.

4) what class would you recommend?

I'd recommend a druid. Druids are in my opinion*, the best class for carrying battlegrounds. And if you aren't winning the majority of your games, the leveling process will be much, much slower.

Thanks for the info! appreciate it, what spec for druids do you think would be best for the carry? Also are the que times super long at the low levels?

Either Balance or Restoration.

I personally, play restoration, but I think balance would be much, much better for single handedly carrying battlegrounds as a leveler.

Also are the que times super long at the low levels?

There are 2 variables that determine that: Time of day & the bracket you're in.

For obvious reasons, early mornings on weekdays may have longer queue times, as people are either at work or school.
Queue times differ by bracket mainly because of the twink population. With 10-19 being quite active, their queue times will be much better than say, 40-49.
