Not a single horde team in top 50 2v2.

Is there no problem to be seen?


Suggestion: consider upgrading the pvp trinket to 284 ilevel.

Horde could use some love.

I don't think that's the problem.
However, which server are you referring to?

its obvious, every single team on top 50 arena consists human. its has been and will aways be like that cz majority pvp min-maxers will aways pick human which allows them to wear 2 hc trinkets that provides stats which cannot easily covered/compared by simple gemming or enchants. whereas horde can only use medalion which on a par with some gems/enchants.

Upgrade the pvp trinket to 284? By doing what, giving it a bit more resilience? I don't think that would do anything.

Unless by upgrading the insignia trinket to have a lesser CD than the human's racial ability, having a bit more resilience won't do much.
Frankly, it seems like an interesting thought to reduce the CD of the PvP trinket, however I think that it would be hard to balance between being too OP and the trinket CD reduction simply not being enough.

This particular issue only arises in endgame WOTLK, the exact version of the game that survived the longest on this very server. That being said, to make the best use of it, you would need to be an excellent PvPer and have the endgame items you need, otherwise that advantage for the most part is negligible. The way I see it, it only increases the uppermost threshold of PvP performance. Clearly it is good enough for people to pick human over other races for this reason.

Endgame WOTLK PvP (PvE too) is the exact type of fun people are drawn to and keep coming back for.

I think the best solution would be a racial shift feature like other private servers have implemented.
On a aging server where everyone is minmaxing that feature would give players the option to choose their favorite faction and character model while keeping the best racial.
