Pros-Good community, several pro players. Slightly balanced in a way, fun of simple bgs, gearing, holidays and arenas. Its pretty much low level fun without the price. Its also more competitive.



Cons.- Non except 24s.

 

[Zatox]

pros: free

cons: everything else

 

[Bowwow]

AGM.

 

[berlinetta]

its free everywhere not just in community servers, ive seen some really pro players on loner servers and gettin the AGM is just silly on a server with a crapload of f2p

 

[Whyzo]

people who are paying to play the game still play in the 20-24 bracket with f2p gear limitations. That should tell you something about the bracket right there...

 

[berlinetta]

I never asked about the bracket.please read my post again, i was talking about a community like AP

 

[Insects]

Pros: queueing for BGs and dungeons with cool people

if you need any help there's bound to be someone on who will help you



Cons: assholes.

 

[Jeralulz]

- You wont get AGM or only with craploads of work - Con

- You got people to talk to at like every given time (LOLZ whocares) - Pro

 

[Earlwing]

Just like any community....



Pros: cool people.



Cons: cunts.

 

[Rivfader]

Only way to go if you wanna play horde. Pugging as horde is just plain painful, rolling AP ensures that you will have people to play with.

pros: me

cons: everything else

I'm assuming based off your topic title you want the pros and cons of having a community vs not having a community. Since no where does it specifically mention AP.



Having a community



Pros - In general it makes the game more enjoyable especially with such a large active community such as AP.

Friendly people that will help you get shit done (ie Dungeon run, groups formed, and occasionally rep farms)



Cons - If your a very gear dependent player getting the AGM will be tough.



Not having a community



Pros - You don't have to put up with any bullshit.



Cons - Your alone. That's rough when you can't ask for help, have no one to talk to, and must solo que for nearly everything.



Hopefully this answers your question!

I prefer to think of it as "challenging."

Painful is a better way to put it. Theres a difference between having to earn your win and having to completely carry every last retard on your team.

Every time I play my alliance rogue the game ends in a gy camp unless there's a bunch of 24s or an AP 5+ man. Pugging horde I have been the victim of similar violations.

thanks ark thats exactly what i was lookin for. I have a f2p on Ap allie but he is freshhttp://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/aerie-peak/Belakiss/simple, im pretty much geared except AGM which seems like its gonna take forever here. (ofc i have no boas yet)

Does xserver BGs now grab from all battlegroups? Sorry couldn't find any easy answer on google.



If no then the alternatives to AP that are in the same battlegroup are not great. All medium to high pop servers, so chances of an easy AGM run are not great unless you have P2P help.

My original pally was on a server not in APs battlegroup, yet I often got in games with various characters from AP.



That's how earl and shau recruited me <3



It only took me 6 days of no competition looting to get my agm on that toon

Edit - Original server was Frostwolf on bloodlust While Aierie peak is on Nightfall
