    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs The engine supports Merc Mode, they just have to add in the NPC and all of the issues go away <3

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Roll Alliance. No seriously. The player base can fix a lot of problem themselves. Wife and I fist rolled 29 twinks on Horde. Waited up to 45 minutes some days to play. Rolled Alliance, bang 4 minute cues. Stop the Whaabulance and re-roll. Blizzard ain’t fixing ****.

    @Williosx @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Or ask blizz to fix wait times and not care if some kid believes it's a do or die choice over PvP.

    @warcraftdevs @watcherdev You idiots need to stop listening to the bean counters. Delay the M+ season and raid by at least 2-4 weeks. Tune classes. Fix bugs. Fix this ********** mistake YOU made. Stop being retarded. Do you want a mass exodus? You are destroying WoW. Resign.

    @Warcraft Fix the ******* game. How ******** do you think is a good idea to reset your legendaries just because there is a new system? ******* bullshit.

    Literally the only thing holding me to WoW now is the fact that the Heavenly Onyx Cloud Serpent dropped for me after 13yrs of farming...Pls devs...fix your mistakes...#Wow #worldofwarcraft

  • RyanHillGames
    Ryan Hill (@RyanHillGames) reported

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs It's to the point where I just queue TFT while I wait to BG. I can get 1-2 matches in while I wait. And if the solution for me is to play another game while I wait, that's a glaring design issue.

    @Illandria @Spankyhunter @Warcraft Either that or the glitch gods have hit my account again...

  • __xThomas__

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Cross faction bgs would fix that issue easy

    @nate_grey_ @DiscordianKitty If a warcraft account I inactive for a long enough time (like 5 years but I am not sure) the names of the characters get available again for other player. So the problem is not that huge You could just install a rp addon that let's you choose a more "creative" name

    @yumytv This is a huge rip for Warcraft. The games sucked arse for years and years too long now. They had every chance to fix it but they continued to ignore the fan base and use common sense. Cya 👋🏽

  • PerHggstrm
    Per Häggström (@PerHggstrm) reported

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Swtor has same faction bgs and they solve the RP problem by saying it's a practice. If Swtor can have that then WoW can

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Go ally, problem solved

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Mercenary Mode , talk to the human to the right of the PvP quest giver/vendor in Oribos and play as alliance . Problem solved.

  • Art_of_Melissa

    I really wish @Warcraft would group OCE servers on their own LFG channel. Got into so many OCE runs lagging ***** >.>

  • Jonny_Mckinney
    Jonathan McKinney (@Jonny_Mckinney) reported

    @WarcraftDevs a fix for the recrafting legendaries issue… have an item drops from the new raid that allows you to add a ********** socket to the legendary you already have that is in the same slot as a ********** gear piece.

  • JustSonor
    _S_ (@JustSonor) reported

    Why is noone (that I've seen) talking about the most obvious fix to the legendary craft issue? Make it so that when you're upgrading your legendary's ilvl, it can be used to change its slot if that slot is available for the power! #Shadowlands #Warcraft

  • thewizardstome
    The Wizards Tome (@thewizardstome) reported

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Open up temporary one way faction transfers for Horde to Alliance to balance out the population issues for like 2-3 weeks. There are plenty of people who would swap to balance it out. @WarcraftDevs

  • ViseraR
    Visera_The_Rogue (@ViseraR) reported

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Not sure why the devs are tagged in a player created issue. Unless you want them to give you a faction swap so the population gets balanced out and there are more alliance players to even out queue times.

  • TraduNaCl
    Tradu (@TraduNaCl) reported

    @WarcraftDevs fix the "fill a bar" callings to give credit while in a raid group. You already can't complete most objectives for it while in a raid, but it's really lame that the ones you *can* complete in a raid don't count (like the world boss WQ)

  • lukiemullins
    𓆏 ゴゴ Polnareff Stan ゴゴ 𓆏 (@lukiemullins) reported

    @ImmortalHD @Wowhead @Warcraft Tbh I don’t see it as much of an issue as some think. Unless you push mythic raid or m+ 20s and higher, you don’t NEEEEED to min/max by recrafting legendaries into slots the shards don’t need. But like, why not just implement a system to reforge legendaries for discounted SA?

  • seanmiddleditch

    @Cor3ntin This will pose a problem for MMOs. I guess we'll have to convert World of Warcraft to a play-by-post game.

  • really_dontknow

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Only fix i would like to see is free faction change, Merc sucks **** and would just cause further imbalance

  • khrystalz
    Henrik Lervik (@khrystalz) reported

    @Konjunktur1 @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs Mercenary mode would make it so the PvPers get shorter queuetimes. So ppl who want to play BGs actually get to play BGs. Isn't that the ideal scenario? No issues grinding out some gear, but it becomes insane when you have to do 30hours of queueing just to buy the PvP trinket.

  • ViseraR
    Visera_The_Rogue (@ViseraR) reported

    @Warcraft More borrowed power systems and more choreghast with no plans of fixing my class that got nerfed into the ground or any of the other issues that players brought to the attention of Devs that only got ignored. I really hope the devs open their eyes and ears soon

  • Attillee
    Attillee (@Attillee) reported

    @ElliottVenczel @WarcraftDevs This seems like a problem caused by the players. If you wish to select the dominant faction, and cry for the lack of players on the other faction. Then you got the power to change your issues by rerolling.
