Battlegrounds are obviously great, but what about the World in World of Warcraft..
Everyone loves World PvP. I'm sure even you AP f2pers who are on a Normal realm (rather than PvP) have experienced the fabled World PvP. So where can you find it? More specifically, where can go to have the best chance of finding fun, random, competitive World PvP? By competitive, I mean fighting people who have a chance to kill you, but not the ability to 1-shot you.
***Geared Aerie Peak people should make a town such as Ratchet in Northern Barrens their home town for both Horde and Alliance, that will allow people to easily find others for duels, groups and an overall more active community.***
This is what I have found for World PvP:
For :Horde: The Horde :Horde:
-The most active area for Alliance players to be for the levels of 20-29 (that I've found) is around the town Darkshire, in Duskwood. So being cautious of the high level guards close to town, you can actually come across a fair number Alliance who stray too far. They will be perfect to sate your bloodlust. There is another small quest hub for the Alliance in Western Duskwood too. Also, just North East of Darkshire is a nice tucked away area that spawns a rare 'Unknown Soldier' NPC which usually drops green items, which is always helpful for enchanters!
-The Alliance do also have quests that take them all over Ashenvale, so keep a look out for them if you are roaming that forest.
For :Alliance: The Alliance :Alliance:
-South Eastern Ashenvale, just North of the Mor'shan Rampart of Northern Barrens. The entire area around there has a whole series of quests that Horde of levels 20-29 often attempt to complete. You can also hunt Horde by skirting around Silverwind Refuge, in the middle of Ashenvale. Especially checking the Furbolg area just East of the refuge. Don't get too close to the high level guards though!
-Hillsbrad Foothills, there are a couple of horde quest hubs here of suitable level. Check around Tarren Mill and also Ruins of Southshore.
And of course, you can always go to the Arena in the Cape of Stranglethorn every 3 hours. Higher population realms definitely benefit the World PvP frequency, but it is still possible to find it on low population (and even Normal) realms. If you are a geared f2p character, don't be afraid of fighting characters up to level 29, I've killed a few who were in the red or even ?? to me. This might not be as useful for AP people, but like me, I'm sure there are quite a few people who created characters before knowing about Aerie Peak (Or about twink info at all). Aerie Peak people need to get on that combined faction hometown bandwagon please.
If anyone knows of any other specific areas that have lots of activity (levels 20-29), please let us know where!
