BGs are a part of WoW no matter the server type. It might also be possible to do cross-server BGs IF that is technically possible (same patch level, available as a feature in the server code).

World PvP is just ganking lowbies who are questing or occasional griefing between competing raids trying to zone at the same instance. The truth is the only time there is world pvp on a pvp server is when people are levelling and its usually higher level players trying to feel superior for 1 shotting those lowbies. After players hit level cap its all BG's or random ganking.

Arenas offer the best pvp on the server, even if you're on a pve server.


LOL You don't know what real WPvP is.



LoL, enlighten me. That's what world pvp actually is for most people. It's a level 60 hunter camping level 20s in redridge for the tears and lulz.

The vast majority of world pvp is fighting someone within 5 levels of you in contested leveling zones. The reason you think it's only skulls ganking you is because those are super unfair and you remember them very clearly. The other factor is that most of you complaining are the ones that just don't like world pvp period.

You don't see the enjoyment of getting ganked then stalking the ganker and getting them back with emotes.
You don't see the enjoyment of panning the camera around while you kill your 12,000th mob for the 300th quest to look for gankers
You don't see the enjoyment of ganking the other faction (that is close to your level) and duking it out.
You don't see the enjoyment on grouping up to fight off the other faction from a contested spawn (looking at you STV elites and regular tigers)
You don't see the enjoyment of killing mobs in smart locations to avoid the eyes of gankers

All you guys want is to level in complete peace and pick flowers and skip down the road holding each others hands. That's fine, just admit you want to play a FACTION BASED game while having zippo to do with fighting the other faction unless you feel like it.

I've only encountered *1* player throughout my entire adventure to 60 that was even remotely close to my level in world pvp, and I was juggling 3 mobs and still managed to killed him. Then the guy got pissed off and waited to res until I had no mana and was in combat to get his revenge. Cheap ass shit. One time it has been "fair" or what you would consider "world pvp". Even thats dubious since he clearly had no interest in a fair fight whatsoever and then got mad when he had to run to his corpse after getting served.

All the other ganks have been guys at least 5+ levels higher than me or level 60s.

I've been on a pvp server since day 1 and I've never seen the kind of douchebaggery that exists on this server and the guys who defend their actions as "world pvp". It's straight up ganking and griefing. In BG's, you are there for PvP. Arenas provided the best PVP.

Face it. Most ganking is done by level 60 against level 55 and below. They just run by and attack and few times and boom. dead. They dont sit on your corpse, but they will come back in about 5 mins and kill you again. This is the majority of "pvp". The rest of "pvp" happens when you're already engaged with a mob. A rogue (or any class really, but rogue is definitely the most annoying) comes up when you're at about half health and just kills you. I don't think I've had an actual fight while leveling to 45 as a warrior. This isn't really pvp. This is you hitting a guy when he's down. If you feel good about this or think it's really fun then you are probably really bad at the game and should focus on getting better rather then just kicking a guy when he's down.

Suure. And when someone gives you your own medicine, you come here and whine 'I am ganked I want a PVE server ASAP!" :mrgreen:
