    Re: World of Warcraft

    I think the Faction Change will balance that out.

    The last census data I heard was 55% Alliance and 45% Horde.

      Hello doublepost.

      Faction Champions 10-man was a joke. We one-shotted it.

      Faction Champions 25 is impossibly hard. We managed to kill one NPC in our best run.

      How is it fair to have a PVP fight where they can CC you endlessly, have 2 million health, subject to diminishing returns, no aggro tables, and trinkets, where you're forced to wear PVE gear, have 20-30k HP, and die as soon as two targets decide to attack you at the same time?

      I honestly believe it is impossible to complete that encounter without a death. Furthermore, I do not think anybody will get the achievement for killing them all in 60 seconds. Ever.

        If only you could AoE the faction champions...

            And clearly your anecdotal evidence is fact for all servers, right?

            You need to learn the difference between your own experience and the worldwide trend.

            The majority of server balance is for the Alliance. The majority of Battlegroup balance is for the Alliance. The majority of all characters in the game are Alliance.

            Does this mean there are no servers where Horde outnumber Alliance? Of course not. There are about two dozen servers where the Horde vastly outnumber the Alliance. But there are nearly twice as many servers with the opposite trend.

            Nearly three million players are night elves or humans. That tells you something right there.

              And something like 14% of all players are death knights, and that tells you something else as well.

                That everyone likes playing new classes, especially ones that don't start at level 1?

                    I don't get that "of all players" stuff. Does that mean of how many people are on at any given time 14% are DKs, that 14% of all characters in wow are DKs or that 14% of all level capped characters are DKs?

                    Because it's kind of a skewed statistic either way. I mean, I have a 79 DK,but I have an 80 priest and 80 warrior.

                    In fact, I know of no one that hasn't at least made a DK yet. But then again, I don't know anyone who hasn't at least tried out all the classes either.

                        Before I transferred, the Horde always won everything. I'm not going to deny it. We were just better, that's all. On my old server, the Alliance outnumbered the Horde very slightly, but never once did they win a single Wintergrasp from what I've seen. In fact, after a week or two, the forum was just filled with threads asking the Horde not to show up at Wintergrasp so that the Alliance could actually do the raids there.

                          I have a variety of character I like to try. My highest is a 61 Tauren DK. Which kinda bored me a little bit. I have a 50 Tauren Druid, 15 Draenei Hunter, 22 Blood Elf Warlock, 25 Troll Mage, and the list goes on. xDD

                            Don't you need to have had at least one character over 55 to make a Dk at all?

                              My main is Alajin, lvl 80 Troll Hunter on Maelstrom (RPPvP) , but i dont play him that much since Blizz decided to neglect hunters recently... which will change!

                              other than that i dont have any other high-lvls... but i have been wanting to start a druid, and when the next expansion comes out i think im gonna switch to Alliance cuz of the Worgen >.>

                              EDIT: Did you guys ever decide on a guild or something? Haha, I just don't want to look through all 97 pages xD

                                Too many people on too many different servers, not willing to pay for transfers or start from level 1 to try and make an ffr-specific guild somewhere.
