Split the WSG brackets in half!

Post#1 » Mon Oct 26, 2026 4:01 pm

It is amazing that you added the opportunity to participate in WSG on the HC server. However, a 10-level difference between players is just too big. Please split the brackets in half, so that instead of having levels 10–19 on the same battleground, players of levels 10–14 queue separately from levels 15–19.
Right now, as soon as you hit a new bracket level, you might as well forget about WSG for at least the next 6 levels. If the brackets were split in half, queuing for WSG would be viable at almost any level, since the level gap between players wouldn't be so dramatic. Thank you!

ha-ha they start crying again. PvP players can never be satisfied with anything, ever. Even if it’s PvP in Hardcore :D

What do you mean 'never satisfied'? It literally says right there that adding BGs is a great idea! Compared to vanilla, they even added a 1-9 bracket. Are you against that? Doubt it. So what was the point of your comment? I'm just suggesting another improvement over Classic: making BG brackets 5 levels instead of 10. It would make BGs way more interesting and playable.

In addition, on our HC server, there is a restriction that prohibits joining groups and trading items if the level difference between players is more than 5. Right now, this concept is broken on BGs. Therefore, narrowing the WSG bracket ranges from 10 levels down to 5 levels will not only make BGs more interesting and playable for characters in the lower half of the bracket, but will also enforce the rule that prohibits grouping with characters 5 levels higher or lower.

That's literally what I mean. They give you BG. Almost real BG, but you still want more. More easy, more comfortable. More... retail. Well, even there is still 10 lvl bracket.

You've drawn some weird conclusions, considering I have absolutely zero experience with retail. What exactly do you disagree with in these statements/proposals and why? Point by point:
