Suggestions for improvement
Hello, i would love to share some suggestions about blackrock.
1. Delete [Graccu's Mince Meat Fruitcake], there is no reason to have this food for blackrock players that play against icecrown or lordareon players in battlegrounds, blackrock player can top out in few seconds, players from other realm are eating for 10-15sec, it makes no sense.
2. Add some battleground quests for blackrock players, i have seen no changes in quest for years, its kind of boring. Battlegrounds are not something i would like to play for fun, its just disaster. Or add something like BG marks like on TBC that we can purchase something with it. (honor marks, arena points marks, gear, mounts, scrolls for transmog, new transmog sets that are not currently in game etc...)
3. Rework price of consumables on blackrock to kind of agrees with price on other realms, like [Drums of Forgotten Kings] are 500g on icecrown and 200 honor points on blackrock. [Free Action Potion] is 40g on icecrown and 5000 Honor Points on blackrock, makes no sense.
4. Add wintergrasp for blackrock realm, we just need world PVP area where we can just spend time, hunt people, makes groups and play wintergrasp fights every 2 hours. Cross faction when making groups will be needed as on blackrock is not enough horde players. Current world PVP area is just sad, you port there and get wiped by 2 groups of friends, cannot even move from 1 side to the other without getting ganked. Area is too small and there is not safe spots like respawns on wintergrasp.
5. Rework SOLOQ, after all these years majority of people have full accounts of BIS geared characters, for new players or somebody that wants to make new character its impossible to get to even 1720 to buy rings, even for me as 2,4k casual player its hard, especially on characters that cannot really do something alone in SoloQ. Like full start geared DKs, Mages, priests etc. I see no good system in MMR vs RATING gains and loses. I can be 1750 MMR with 1550 rating and get stucks there. This kind of makes me rather leave than tryhard to get gear up in soloq as start gear. I have no time to have 2v2 partner as i play very randomly. Also the matchups are very strange to me, its usually not a balanced setups. I can get 5,4k pve players from icecrown, then me as start gear DK for example and third is rele priest. Against us Shadowmourne DK and Warrior with full bis holy paladin. Just an example, but its very often kinda like this. I already saw a ton of posts about SOLOQ MMR matchups that are so wrong, but no answer from any GM.
6. Rework DUOQ, i am fine with half the rating gain and double the lose of rating, but why would it affect the third player that have nothing in commond with those 2 players that decided to go play DUOQ. I can meet two bad players that do DUOQ and thanks to them get double the rating loss, makes no sense to me.
7. Rating needed to buy PVE SET or OFFSET that copy WF gear is just nonsense. Why would i need 2k rating to buy PVE shouldlers that are bis for almost nobody and 1600 rating for PVE Legs that are. If somebody want to have fun in full PVE gear let them. Its not BIS for almost nobody as we wear PVE jewelry and offparts with best trinkets in the game and SETs are needed wrathfull to gain some ressilience. Do not delete rating requirement, but make it more affordable.
8. Add 1v1, i know there is possibility for challenge somebody, but who is going to look for somebody in global chat to play 1v1 in arena. MMR or RATING system it doesnt matter, just make it so it doesnt count as rating you can buy gear with or get arena flushes. But give people the possibility to play something more, its just boring here after all these years.
9. New zones? My eyes are crying to look at Dalaran, Ruby Sanctum or Tanaris for that long. Please.
10. Sound of that Transporter NPC gave me multiple times reason to just dont play on blackrock at all. Why would you do that to us. When in VIP zone at the Arena battlemasters you hear that, when you are wherever close to NPCs in Dalaran you hear that, when you are at Nagrand que places you hear that, when you are in Duel zone at Arena battlemasters you hear that, just why this NPC, please change it for something quiet.
11. Get rid of team rating and make it personal rating per character. Therefore people will not be needed to have team to que 2v2 with whoever they want. Their MMR will be combined for matchup making and their personal MMR and RATING would be counted separately per player. This change will make everything 100 times better. Now people are just not able to find stable 2v2 partner and if they got a team they dont want to leave it to play arenas. This system is just too old and not fuctioning on this realm. Spam of people looking for 2v2 partner with "MY TEAM" information is just too many and nobody wants to play with them.
12. Get rid of 0 rating team starts. 0 rating and 1500 MMR. Thats something that was wrong already 15 years ago.
13. There is shadowmourne on blackrock but there is no Valanyr, why? For BGS its great. For arena its bad, make it more easily affordable than shadowmourne is.
Thanks for consideration or any more suggestion from other players.
