I'd remove any and all vehicles from BGs

In a similar poll at Arena Junkies, 50% of the voters thought that Strand of the ancients is the worse battleground. I agree with them.

Not a BG, and you (thankfully) don't get thrown into it if you queue for random BGs.

You can kill the boss. Lmfao.

Tank him in the middle room. If he leaves, he enrages.
Tank him close to one of the doors, so that everyone can los him when he does the jump move.

Proceed to win the BG, while the other side is screaming "you can't kill the boss.."


And Ferry, I tanked the boss very well starting at 83, on both my paladin and DK, but you go on thinking it cannot be done.

/facepalm



I know that technically he can be killed as I have seen it done twice out of 18 characters leveling through BG's. The success rate is quite low. Good luck getting the PUG to LOS the boss.


Must be battlegroup related..I both won and lost many many times when leveling up 8 characters due to this boss being killed. It just isn't that hard.

If you leveled THAT many characters in BG's I would assume you would know that battlegroups haven't existed in years.

Years?

You mean grouping them into datacenters(which were just larger battlegroups, esentially), and then regions(which happened in what december?)? Happened YEARs ago?

lmfao


No, the inability to kill that boss isn't battlegroup specific.


It's specific to you

You are the one who said it was battlegroup specific in the first place. You claim to be all knowing in the department of killing the boss and how easy it is and yet didn't even know there were no longer battlegroups. That leads me to believe that you do not even BG very often to know one way or another.

So, because there are no "names" listed anymore, do you honestly believe that you do not get grouped in a specific way?


1.Similar time zone, and or
2.Same datacenter (which were essentially the "new" battlegroups" after the merger)

And only then if the group is not full,

3.A different datacenter?


No wonder you can't figure out how to kill a PVE mob.


And lets not forget, you are the one who stated, "I voted Isle though because in the lower brackets where you can't kill the boss...."


Even Korrigan, who mainly plays PVE killed him more than twice on ONE TOON (his druid). And you couldn't manage it with 18? While leveling through BG's?


So, here we are...it's either you, or you being grouped with morons.

Take the heat if you want, I was actually trying to deflect the blame from you by suggesting it was "battlegroup specific".

Meanwhile, that boss has been killed 5-10 times in the 84 bracket while I was writing this.

I like all the BG's. I wouldn't take any out. Win some, lose some. Twin Peaks is my favorite. I think Strand can be a ton of fun if played right.


But on the other hand I don't like Tol Barad and think it's a pain and the mechanics they put in place to "keep it even" are stupid and ineffective and counter to the whole idea of PvP in the first place.
