you cant perfectly balance the game n i dont expect it. are twink brackets ever really balanced? nope...so obviously if i cared for balance i wouldnt pvp at all at any level
but 85 is just too much of a lame grind. if you start pvping now in bloodthirsty gear youre at a pretty big advantage vs someone whos been doing it since day 1 of cata and now has s10 gear. you'll have to farm ton of honor n jp n shit go get s9 or 10 then finally join an arena team or rbg team and grind that out, unless you get lucky and get carried for a while. and it only gets worse as the xpac goes on until the next one and that gear reset
and i didnt find bot or bwd fun. just didnt make me excited to go raid like all the previous raids, which must have been a sentiment shared by others since people canceled subs in droves. havent tried fl yet other than the trash farms but idk, nothing has made me want to go do it..just not that appealing
