It's even worse when you see that none of the alliance guilds are US(excluding OCE) or EU based.
No-one plays alliance cause well thier racials are crap compared to horde also lets not forget they most of the times get the world firsts and oh yea lets not forget they work alot better at random battlegrounds and work pre made groups better.
The current progress section of the article is missing Crucible of Storms, which the Alliance was at 12 when Horde finished, Alliance is currently at 42 guilds completed for that raid...
Now that hall is closed, raid needs across the board nerfs because it's way overtuned.
People talk about faction imbalance, but a much larger problem is the terrible day raiding guilds. The ones who take a HoF spot because they pull the boss triple or quadruple the amount of times. HoF should be based on execution and shouldn't reward awful players that brute force ranks.
RIP AllianceI wish that plotwriters will let us lose to Thanos, I mean, the Jailer, and the amount of survivors will become equal to population of Draenei (lorewise ofc) which would make us actually join forces and forget about that Alliance vs. Horde crap. Faction division is rudimentary at this point and it only brings harm.
GOD PLEASE NO CROSSFACTION.I like trading with them through the Auction House,I don't mind being able to chose whether I wanna fight them or not whenever I want thanks to warmode (war is on a voluntary basis right ?),I don't care being able to do world bosses or rares with them,It's really nice to go mercenary for way faster random BG queues,I can play both Horde and Alliance at the same time on the same account and just switch in less than a second,It's funny to be able to /wave or /kiss them,I spent at most 95% of my play time out of instanced content in lobby Orgrimmar/Oribos where I either don't see them or can't fight them,I think it's nice teaming up with their NPC in most content,I do just fine walking past them while questing and doing dailies,I'm fine talking to their leaders with whom my race is (supposedly) at war with,But fighting alongside them to prevent villains obliterating all life in the universe ? That, NEVER.
Release cross-realm as soon as horde fills HoF. Blizzard fix this useless system, the game is dead, the community is dead, people that rely on cross realm raiding are slowly quitting the game. Being on one of the most populated EU horde servers, and not being able to fill a raid group for mythic in 4 hours just shows the current state of the game. People say BFA was bad, however in BFA when you started a mythic group in LFG, in 30 minutes you pulled the first boss.
Honestly lore shouldn't even be a consideration of whether Horde and Alliance players can play together in raids and PvP anymore. Blizzards completely destroyed the Horde vs Alliance narrative too many times with the "We must come together to fight this greater evil". Allot of people would actually like to go back to the Alliance side if they could still enjoy the same quality of raiding that Horde side offers. Same for PvP. They could just make the next expacs narrative that the Jailer wins in SL and we the champions go back home to find the Horde and Alliance had joined forces in order to survive as petty hatreds mean nothing compared to extinction. It would be the perfect time to reset WoW as a game franchise and open up races to both factions. In fact just get rid of factions completely and just make it WoW! Everyone plays with everyone. PvP and PvE. Get rid of all the crap that's bogging this game down, and honestly adding to the player exodus. Especially from the Alliance side. Lets be real here, Alliance servers are struggling big time right now. And people are like hey there's the Horde and they are filling raids and downing bosses. Why am I still here on Alliance side scraping for crumbs?
It is funny because I try to find a raiding guild in the alliance and nobody wants to invite me... So I dont understand those people who cry out that there are no people in the alliance. They are just ignorant.
someone mentions cross-faction instanced content and people lose their minds thinking what's being said is for embassies to be setup in goldshire for horde or something. not even talkign about 100% crossfaction, just need instanced cross-faction, /not/ across the board Everything xfaction. not everyone is a horde fanboi or a fortnite kid who wants to be a cartoon monster because it's edgy. ah to be punished for how you happened to choose your character years ago. unless you want to pay more for faction swap, you're stuck crippled no thanks. other than xfac, there's little to nothing blizzard can directly do to affect the imbalance (the one that ion always claims is actually pretty close to being about almost 50/50 or so" every time it's addressed. apparently regions that cant actually interact with eachother, if imbalanced in opposite ways, that means equal....please) have to actually admit that the region's are faction imbalanced, not worldwide. maybe if they just ignore it for few more years the problem goes away huh. i guess eventually zero on both sides could also be seen as balance though :P
