Realms Wrathful shoulders and T2 weapons from SoloQ on Lordaeron

[apexbeast2]

Hey, Staff members!
Would you consider allowing Lordaeron players to buy Wrathful shoulders and possibly T2 weapons from SoloQ? Blackrock players can, Icecrown can straight up donate for gear and Lordaeron people are in kind of a limbo, because there barely are any people playing rated 3vs3, especially at earlier ST's. The 3vs3 situation pretty much makes it impossible for guys who play at similar times as I do, or have busy schedules to gather up a proper team and progress and SoloQ could be and answer for that problem.
I hope you're doing well in this trying times... eat your damn vegetables!

No. SoloQ differs so much from 3v3 and 5v5 since you still have only 1 teammate to coordinate with and only 2 enemies to pay attention to. Sort of how heroic raids are more difficult, that's how 3v3 and 5v5 are more difficult.
Yes, it's an ongoing issue, but I guess since there's a lot of people who want those shoulders and weapons, shouldn't there be some activity? Try spamming global a bit, maybe some other people also want those items.

As I said, barely anyone capable, so most 99% of them disband quickly. Plus, having an organised group for regular gaming isn't exactly a possibility for people with busy schedules... as I said. As for the difficulty, solo can be considered harder than rated if you get matched with badly fitting teammates on a regular basis, which is the case for most melee hybrid classes and otherwise easy match ups are lost due to bad RNG in the queuing up, or are a complete struggle at best.

"Solo queuing" is a casual, no-strings-attached, quick & dirty way to get matches fast. It skips all the dedication needed to scout for good people, create a group dynamic to work together and everything else required in the non-casual tiers. It shouldn't be a way to avoid all that "hassle" while still receiving the rewards. As dolcokidol says, with the amount of people who come talk about this, it's hard to understand why there aren't more than plenty 3v3 and 5v5 teams formed out there competing, yet all want the rewards given in alternate ways.

Solo may be a casual environment, but it is a legit way to obtain full BiS gear on Blackrock. And since you can buy 4/5 on Lordaeron with Solo rating, I don't see a reason why the shoulders should be unobtainable, considering that 3vs3 is pretty much dead and people play solo instead. Clearly that won't bring the bracket to life, so why not let us get a "badge of honor" so to say, it won't impact the other realms in a negative way, because Lord is the most inactive pvp-wise.
