Battleground brackets based in ilvl

Something i saw on Nurfed Forums:
Not that it matters to all of you in full Aq pvp gear;

Quote from tseric on wow forum today
PvP: Gear disparity comes in to play here. This is really what makes the whole issue hot and bothered. This can be dealt with in many ways. One of those ways is having a match-making system with BGs that takes more into account than simply level brackets. This is something we are working on. Will it solve all of our players worldly concerns? I don't know, seeing into the future is tricky business.


Combined with http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/underdev

Cross-realm Battlegrounds
For the first time in the history of World of Warcraft, you will be able to face off against players from other realms in the Battlegrounds. Coming in patch 1.12 are cross-realm PvP Battlegrounds, linking Alterac Valley, Warsong Gulch, and Arathi Basin so that players from several realms will be combined into one huge matchmaking pool. Replenish your mana, sharpen your blades, and get ready for some brand-new challengers!


Now if this is true, it has to be one of the most retardet ideas ever. It means Players who need to farm Honor need to equip horrible blue gear when theyq ueue and switch back to epics once they get a Battleground up, its pretty damn retardet. ;x

You allways consider anything you don't agree with "retarded". Calm down a bit...

I actually think this is a good thing. Not everyone has access to BWL and AQ in the way we do, in fact, I have alts in other servers wich are 60 and also that I wanted to gear up and that for obvious reasons I can't raid with... So all is left is pvp.

But even a warlock against a rank 14 warrior is totaly stepped on and that's with some of the best blues UBRS/strat/scholo/DiM can give you... It's far far from fun :\

At least this will level it a bit.

I could say i don't like it but in the end it would mean the same, i don't agree with it.

Actually know cuz eventually everyone will just queue wíth blue grear to get the easiest fights and so on, if they wanna make "levels" they should rather make the bracket system more depended on your perfomance vs. other groups and so on.

No it's not retarded. The whole idea is to remove the CP farming. Note the CP!!

Besides. From what I heard. they are changing the whole PvP honor system anyway in the next patch so the honor system is not totally and mainly based of CP farming. That it will actually be based more of skill.

Sooo.. Your argument is that ppl will equip blues, greens, grey and whatnot and keep their epix oh so secretly hidden in their backpack and then sneak it on?

I'm just a humble sparetime programmer but I think blizzard know what you have in your backpack. ;)

how about setting your level with the "best" equipment you are carrying around? So easy...

EDIT: Damn, Okvid beat me to it :(
