also Cata realm pvp is actually pretty good in neltharion: tol barad ( a lot of pvp there ) city raids. So I don't know if it should be implemented on cata realms.

In-game account banned. Reason: Denied of Service (a.k.a. not allowed to play here). Next time learn to express yourself politely and don't waste server bandwidth.

Warsong and Blackrock definitely needs something like this, I'm sure that it will make the realms more attractive and maybe increase population.

Seems that u're right, and looking at staff answers to this topic (none towards suggestions posted and players concerns) it will stay in current state.
Like u said guild event in the same one zone, day after day... hype yey

This is a chest that awards coins and its challenge is to fight for it, not to hide it well. Putting it in a random location on the map will take no PvP, neither will it mitigate group advantage as guilds will just spread out over a map and have a much higher chance of finding it than casual players. Instead we added 3 possible spawn locations and a time has been increased to 2 hours. The time coincides with raid hours for many guilds and they are unlikely to reschedule their raids for this.

too many ppl will do this event for the coins

It is regular realms that are encouraged to have world PvP. Blackrock and Warsong are already PvP-only and contributed to reducing PvP on regular realms. That is one of the reasons Wartorn Chest is implemented to regular realms in the first place, to improve their world PvP.

Perhaps you should set a timer, if the Horde guys hold it for -insert time-(like 3 mins or ??) he gets it, and then it respawns again.
Also dont think lvl 80s with thousands of kills will be rushing there for what, few coins that they dont need to get an item they dont need.
Rewards for raiding Stormwind and Ogrimar, some events related to that, that would be something, I've seen only one potato raid on Stormwind by Protean, some Alliance rouges kill unsuspecting duelers outside Ogrimmar and Voljin got killed a few weeks ago and thats it.

It has just occurred to me that although this seems like it COULD be done well it will take time and effort and I am actually totally against anything and everything getting time and effort until the PvP that SHOULD BE ON WOTLK actually works without a ******ed number of bugs. I am even totally against wintergrasp until the total cluster**** of SoTA and IoC are fixed as well as general spawn related (being moved to places you do not have/not being moved from places you no longer have) issues in all BGs.
I got distracted by promises of shiny new **** long enough to forget the past cockups which need to be rectified.
Can I change my vote to a firm "No" instead please :/

after being in the event. i see a major problem. everyone knows where chest is going to respawn. i would make the chest respawn in a random area.

See the updated map and topic, it's will be randomized on 3 locations with approximate coordinates. We didn't expect 200 people to be there kind of, but yes as many other people pointed out the exact location shouldn't be there. There's something else that we haven't tried yet and it's the option #2 which is so far most voted for.

Kaer, u shouldn't be concerned about world pvp, rather, arena activity should concern you more. 7 min queue on 2.3k mmr 2s to fight 1900 team, infinite queue for 3s.

The only thing needed to encourage world pvp is TELEPORTERS! (to world arenas maybe)
Where is the only place you get world pvp now? Gadgetzan while queuing BGs.
Why? 'Cause TELEPORTER and short ride from Dalaran!
People are interested in world pvp but PvPer's hate to waste time on flying and moving in general... just all that riding at the start of AV is agony for me personally xD
I even began to think up some kind of "world arena system" for raid groups, but I quickly realised that the KEY to this system was not all the details and regulation to try and make it "fairer".. no the key to this system was one simple thing: you do not have to fly and ride your *** to wherever it is you are going to fight! That is why people queue BGs and Arenas but avoid World PvP.
This chest thing IS an option if "custom teleporters" are a complete no-no (teleporters could maybe require certain play time to be used to force new people to move normally... but really... why keep the time waste blizzlike when warmane is not pay monthly? (I bought a lvl80 on wotlk. 95% of all of wow is an unbearable mind-numbingly ******ed time-vampire.)
P.S. If you do insist of making this game a blizzlike timewaste then how about you guys (somehow) stop people teleport and speed hacking :) (maybe required and checked client side custom program?)
P.P.S. Yes i know any systems will also be broken by those knowing what they are doing but people who worked to hack something will not want their hack fixed fast so new hacks would be less wide spread (and equally reportable with videos). Note: any system should be updated without warning to catch the most hackers.

All people are going to do is fly hack under the map and wait for it to spawn lol and all they to do is be invisible. GG no re. Meanwhile the PvP guilds will just make it so the G-Leader/Officers can loot it only or you get G-kicked. Anyone else gets executed immediately.

Are you thinking about make this event for Deathwing also?
