[PvP] Non-elite guards Goblins & no guards Chapel of Hope

Hi everyone, it's my first post in this forum,

I've been playing for years in retail (until wotlk), even during several beta-testing before the release, and I saw how the world-pvp became less & less active and energetic.

So I'd like to make 2 good pvp suggestion to dynamise it ;
- As you may know, before the 1.12.1, in goblin's towns (Everlook, Booty Bay,...) the guards were non-elite, just 57 with the net skill. Like that killing someone in these towns was possible and even escape too (for rogues & mages).

- Furthermore, near the chapel of Hope in EPL they were no guards at all, it was a strong pvp spot for his proximity to Tyr's Hand, dungeons,...

Put guards there or making them elite is setting down barriers to a dynamic world PvP, it's like putting guards in the bloody Blackrock Moutain...

So I propose to remove the guards in Chapel of Hope (EPL) & demote the elite guards in goblin's towns.

Sorry for my english I'm not fluent, and best wishes for the new year fellows.

I don't know where to find the source for this but im pretty sure this is blizzlike. Goblin guards should not be hitting insanely hard (like on feenix) so maybe that means they were not elites back in vanilla or if they were they werent hitting that hard. I know this to be true because how else could you grind out bloodsail bucaneer rep if the guards were impossible to kill?

As for LHC i am sure there are videos around that show some pvp there without guards.

Anyways, good suggestion.

Unlike your other two suggestions which are absolutely retarded, this one is actually great. LHC guards should be removed, their addition was a mistake that even Blizzard has realised and tried to fix it with adding WPvP "objectives" (towers) to EPL that ended up being entirely useless and completely unpopular. Guards were added in Naxx patch anyways, so wouldn't make sense adding them until it happens.

As for goblin city guards, well, it's a given that they shouldn't be able to instagib anything, but there's more to them. Like, for example, one can find videos like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ7KyFiceUs , where you can see that in earlier vanilla guards in BB could be asleep and unrestricted ganking could happen.

nice
i like
cant wait to oneshot low levlel noobs
lmao fucking low level scrubs xDDD

"this was a summary of world pvp brought to you by the AORTATBFPvP (Association Of Rogues That Are Too Bad For Proper PvP)"

no guards to enable pvp is great, too bad its mostly only used by shitters who get farmed in 60s battlegrounds to gank lowies as most people have no interest camping a spot to pvp against like 1 lvl 60 guy in 20 minutes

Sure, Bruisers shouldn't be elite.
Still they should hit hard, cast nets and knockback you around 15yards.

There's a problem tho with this.
If this really happens, then BootyBay/Rachet/Everlook/Gadgetzan will be FULL of safe-spot killers and gankers.

Do you really like the idea?
Shouldn't that be limited?

Imho it should...at least avoid the safe-spots (or make them punishable).
Really a lvl60 mage/lock/caster in a safe-spot could kill lowbie 24/7 without any repercussion (and effortlessly).

killing afk people dismounting from the flying mount without being killed by the guards.. the best pvp ever..
Also, you would get re-killed many times, making your stratholme runs longer..
