10-19 leveling BGs are becoming a 80 PVP bracket

[shanker]

i have been making disposable players to get some honor to exchange for marks of honor. i was in a BG last night we had two 80s and other team had three (game ended a draw) out of 18 total players. some low level twink TBC/gem/etc. extreme farmed disposable farmed low level can survive and do well, but in the end the 80s overall rule

the scaling for 80s is off, plus they come in with full spells, abilities, etc, i have seen them wipe 5-8 players in a second or two. last night a 80 SP launched a entropic rift and 5 on our team dead instantly, another BG a pal on horse mount able to attack, damage as he plowed thru players was the one who dropped 8 on our team including me. their abilities set up 2-3 instant chain abilities. classes that normally suck at 10-19 like rogues, enh sham, can with ease 1-2 shot near any 10-19

i remember this was a issue years back, where max level players were using socket gear and ench from higher expacs, blizz made it where the enchants and gems did not work for high level party syncs, that is still the case. the issue now is the scaling and full toolkits with 10-19s have no counter, survival, etc.

it's funny to see players rage and/or AFK about 80s who have farmed TBC/WOTLK socket gear, supporting gems, doublets, even doing 7 sockets on neck/rings on their disposable

Blizz will obviously see the problem here as TBC gear

the chat in the leveling BGs can become down right toxic, some players are using alts to enter on other side to berate, name call, harass the 80's.
ironically this is back firing, one of the 80s has SS/reported them and got some banned, he warns them first when they start if they want to keep going.

some of the new to WOW players are getting ripe at times too, but their negative and colorful comments are directed at blizzard, then the liars answer them with comments that PVP is more equal and fair at 80.

something new i saw, not sure if this is a thing. i was seeing some evokers doing insane damage. had one on same team, i inspected, player was level 18 in full ilvl 208 gear except trinkets and i think necklace. of course i asked, the player laughed and said every hunter would like to know

That was a bug when Dracthyrs became playable with one created pre-TWW was level 58 (or maybe 60 I don't remember) and had gear with according ilvl.
The thing is that they then were scaled down to 10 but not their gear.

Good for those who have it I guess but bringing that to PvP battles is downright scummy.
