I am not sure how many folks out there play rogues in different WSG brackets . . . I do and my impression is that the 19 bracket is the hardest one to play and make a difference in (i.e. help your team win). Anyone else play multiple rogues in different WSG brackets have thoughts on this?

You need a critical mass of players for the queues to pop. You need games to attract players to BGs. It's circular and reinforcing on the positive side and a death spiral on the negative side. What's surprising is that the 19 bracket survived the Exp On / Off bracket split and I predict it...

Curley - if you are saying that this problem doesn't exist in other brackets - I am going to have to respectfully disagree. I have a rogue in the 70 - 79 bracket and I will occasionally run into 70 resilience twinked pallies and (rarely) disc priests with the level 70 PvP sets. I can solo burn...

If Hitler were a level 10 resilience stacked twink, he'd still be alive. Discuss . . .

This is one of the dumber WoW threads I have ever seen. And that's saying something.

I had a nice long chat with a GM today about another matter. At the end I brought up the level 10 resilience issue. He assured me (as much as a GM can) that Bliz was working balance issues and that he would make sure this got addressed before CATA. You can pooh-pooh how much impact a GM can...

Rogues are supposed to ambush. Rogues should be able to take out a single clothie or leather wearer. And then die if there are other enemies in the area. If geared rogues can burn down a fully twinked pally or warrior with ambush and eviscerate - then their damage needs to be nerfed.

This has the same feel as the Enti sword. I find it hard to believe it won't get 'fixed'. The question is, of course, when.

Well CATA will be enough different than 4.0 that we really can't say for sure what classes will dominate in WSG. On the other hand, Lindenkron has a nice post on this very topic, which I mostly agree with. My 2 cents is that rogues will be key to burning down FCs, but have issues with...

The idea should be based on paper beats rock, rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper. Not sure if we are going to get there or not for our bracket, as Blizz does not care a whole lot about twinks. The problem with the 19 bracket was that for too long Hunters beat everybody...

I passed on waylay also for the same reason, but have not been able to try it out. Did 4.0.1 include the cross-battlegroup BSs? Or will that feature come out when CATA hits on Dec 7?

This is a repeat of my earlier post with essentially no new content other than you caught my mistake - in that I switched Pallys and Shammies. Thank you for catching that. A simple note would have sufficed. Learning not to be a jerk about it will pay off in real life. The part about...

There are alot of 70 twinks that play WSG on Cyclone. The other WSG players in that bracket are levelers in general. Let me try to compare these apples and oranges based on my experience. The 70 twinks on average have a huge advantage in experience and skill in playing WSG as compared to...

Blizz will keep the EXP On and EXP Off brackets separated for reasons already stated. I do think at some point Blizz will solve the issue with players who are capped at level 60 or 70 (and now 80?) because they did not buy game expansions. These players can't get experience past their...

well, rogues in higher brackets can do this right now (shadowstep, ambush, eviscerate, etc). Believe it or not, my experience is that not many use it to burn down FCs. A good number of rogues just farm for easy kills. Also, I try to ambush first and save the shadowstep in case I get...

Asshat. Just camp the enemies GY.

As many posters have pointed out, with Sap and stealthy grabs + sprint, rogues are the best single class for breaking a turtle. If the FC is going to stick with the pack or is holding at home base, alot of other classes are better at carrying. If you have a head start and sprint is up, a...

To answer the OP's question, I think the title is fairly rare for alot of the reasons already stated. One reason I did not see was that most folks that played enough to get the Corporal title were the type that pushed on to get Sergeant or further if they were high enough level. I think the...

I agree that it is situationally dependent and therefore subject to an almost endless debate. In a land of cripples, there are no crutches - just walking aids. or from the other side of the coin In the land of twinks, there are no crutches - just AGMs, jumps, and crusader enchants - oh my.

Leaving the hilarity aside I think in the WoW community, crutch can be defined as an exploit, unusual gimmick, or very difficult to obtain gear / enhancement that allows a player with mediocre or worse gear and/or skills to successfully complete PvE content or successfully compete in PvP -...
