Sanit the rules state that jumps are fine, just jumps that only certain class/races can do need to be eliminated otherwise games will go on for 2 hours plus because some people mechanically cannot do the jumps.
Sorry, but I don't think there's a single jump that will cause a game to be extended to 2 hours just because it is used.
I'm allowing as many jumps as possible at the same time theres jumps just some classes/races can and CAN'T do.
How can you justify all jumps are fair when theres mechanic limitations on certain classes/races/genders? You can't you have to be rational about it.
I chose to roll dwarf priest for stoneform & fear ward. I knew that when I chose this race/class combo there would be a number of jumps that are unavailable/more difficult to me. I could have rolled fem human and walked right through half the jumps that give my dwarf trouble. Mind you, this is all at 60 where I have many other activities I could participate in - so PVP isnt my main focus.
Now apply that to twinks, characters who are MADE for pvp. Would I still roll dwarf, knowing that it gimps me for wsg jumps? Yes. 100 times over yes. Is it really so hard to see jumps as an extension of racials especially when competitive PVP is the "end game"?
If you're concerned about gender just use imorph like any other normal human being in 2020.
You have to consider one faction usually has more jumps to their benefit then others. Just got to make sure you balance it out so its fair.
If all classes could do the jumps and it was even on both sides i would not ban one single jump.
More jumps on one side vs the other is a conversation I'd be willing to entertain - but even that is a stretch. I'd have to see what all the complaints were about before making a judgement call.
In the case of different classes not being able to do jumps? The only ones affected are hunter/druid (MAYBE mage??). If I wanted to played a homogenized version of this game I'd go play retail instead. Banning jumps because of a speed requirement is dumb.
^ If this happens to be a case where you replaced the word "race" with "class" then ignore this paragraph.
