The first year it came out, there was timewalking scaling, which meant that stuff from SoO was a max level toon's bis gear in a lot of cases. It also wasn't unusual to see items like Shadowmourn or the leggo staff from cata.
scaling i'm talking about was lower level players. they could at least but up a somewhat weak, but yet a good fight. of course you had FOTM OP classes at max level you had zero chance. 60, 70, etc twinks felt good and somewhat powered. not this year it's all zero chance, 1-2 shot, hit, dot, etc. insta death.
my 20's felt decent the first year. i could solo take a mine (non stealth). in 2021 we are supposed to be scaled to 60, you face 2-3 level 53 mobs, you are pretty much dead.
i was going to use a token, to level some players, first the XP has been severely nerfed, a ingame friend, tried it and said the scaling for his players in the 48-52 range was also bad in terms of power. even his older banked twink gear was not making a difference. he let his account expire few days into the event.
he was saying versatility scaling is off for lower levels, there is a huge chop going into KAV that you do not see in other BGs, yet a 60 goes into the BG with 20-30% versa based on their gear, you go in at any lower level and you are chopped to the 10% range.
Korrack AV i'm having fun, but it is a shit show showing massive problems in WOW, especially in balancing and homognization due to expac systems, like after a BG seeing of the top five healers, only one is a healer and is third. seeing a prot pal, hav DH, BDK as #1 DPS and Healer, blizzard has a Klown show. all they care right now about is MDI and 3's AWC. which are showing severe imbal that no one is talking about
