Improving the experience for 70-79 twinks
I think the overall experience for the 70-79 community could be improved massively by creating separate ladders for both by separating them in 70-74 and 75-79.
Currently the 70-79 community is quite toxic and it is not a healthy environment for either 70s or 79s.Both parties don’t get along because of the level difference.
- Such change would make both 70s and 79s more than happy.
The amount of 70s who came forward and said they have stopped playing due to sharing a bracket with 79s is massive.
- The inability of 70 casters to participate in battlegrounds, they simply cannot hit 79s - mages, warlocks, balance druids, elemental shamans, shadow priests - those are classes you won’t see in battlegrounds, they are simply created just for pve, which makes most of them quit at some point.
- People are afraid to commit, put time and effort into a character, buy gear from the market or even farm it in arenas or raids, if it means they are just gonna get steamrolled in battlegrounds. Creating such ladders would change that completely.
This is why we think changes should be made and here is how they could be made.
The ladders (70-74 & 75-79) should be applied in small battlegrounds like Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, Eye of the Storm. To keep Alterac Valley popping for everyone it would be better if it’s 70-79. The ladders for Strand of the Ancient and Isle of Conquest should be kept as they are.
This will bring balance to the bracket and make many who have quit over the years ,due to having a disadvantage in battlegrounds, give the bracket another shot. Now having arenas and a 70-74 battleground bracket would revive the 70 community and attract new players. Not to mention that 79s would be more than happy to not see any lower levels in their battlegrounds.
With little time, both 70s and 79s can again create healthy communities and enjoy their time on Warmane.
