I personally like the idea of a 50's only PvP section, but I don't think some of the servers were ready for it yet. BW made a blanket change and it severely limited the ability for level 50s to play in PvP at all on low to medium population servers. I was in queue yesterday for 8 hours and not a single PvP instance was available during that time - several other servers all reported the same problem.

 

Now say what you want about easily killing lower level characters (some skilled lower level players are actually darn good at PvP even when less geared), or getting to 50 too quickly, etc., but if one day you could actually PvP in the game and the next day you can't PvP at all, I think any reasonable person would see there's a issue that needs to be addressed.

Actually, 50s vs 50s is a lot of fun. When a warzone pops up and numbers are equal, that is. A hint there on what 50s are actually 'crying' about. That whole beating down on lowbies is something you lowbies came up with to feel better about beeing killed so much.

The reason you're QQ'ing is because you take the time to PVP and post on the forums instead of LEVELING and being 50 yourself.

 

Really, they should ignore everyone under 50.

....by 50's in full Champ gear.

 

You do realize you can actually see the level of the guy anally violating you, right?

It's queue times most people are unhappy about right now not stoping "lowbies". Fear not...one day you too will level 50 wearing level 40 quest items and will have your **** shoved in once again. This time without the benefit of bolster somewhat helping your damage and health pools.

Because ignoring 80% of the customer base is a great idea for a company.

If anything I find WZs easier than before. Yes, I lose more often, but games also end a lot quicker. I think this is because most 50s just want to finish their daily/weekly quest, so when they see they aren't going to win they just afk until the time runs out. Makes for much quicker WZs and, ultimately, more valor/commendations.

I still win every war zone It has actually become easier for our premades to win every game. The only time we would ever ever come close to losing is if we fought 2 premades and got stuck with 4 random low lvl pugs. Now that we always get 4 50s. It has become ever so easy to farm war zones.

I have had no difference in my PvP experience other than my total damage is not as high at the end, I still get the same medals and still stomp out baddies. I'm no PvP pro, but coming from a 2200 arena background did give me a slight edge on people who still don't know about proper CC and timing abilities.

 

To those who are making threads though with the @level 50 PvPers and complaining at us,

You are going to hit 50 too someday, it is not a crime that there are people who hit 50 before you. Maybe it is just me, but I didn't want to play with people under 50, no offense to people who are decent at their class, but I dreaded joining a WZ and seeing half my team was level 10 and knowing there were Battlemasters on the other team.

As i said before they implemented brackets, 50's trouncing on lower levels is not pvp. It was carebear pvp and now that the easy mode is gone they realize their l33t skills.. all in the gear. I dont feel the slightest sadness about it, when i hit 50 i will compete with other 50s myself as it should have been from the start.

Not really any different. A level 50 with 12k health and no expertise dies as quickly as a level 13 bumped up to 12k health from the matchmaking system.

 

The big change is that queues are longer, and anyone not in at least a few pieces of PVP gear gets harassed for not having gamed the system by maximizing merc commendations before hitting 50 to get 5 bags fairly quickly. (I think the first day you hit 50 you can get about 10 loot bags fairly quickly if you do it right).

 

The same core problem: that medals are awarded for the wrong things remains, which means people trying to win a match are usually disadvantaged and frustrated being stuck with hardcore pvpers who are worried about grinding medals, and will get their 3 victories at some point by random chance.

 

On the upside, generally people know what the goal is at 50 (and so aren't wandering around like 5 year olds playing football).

My only real concern was the queue times would suck - and they are significantly longer, but not too long, so I'm not really that upset.

 

I burned through my daily just as easily as I always have, I actually found the matches went smoother and people talked a bit more (tho this varied). I didn't have any problems fighting against 50s, it seemed comparable to any other match I've had pre-patch.

I have not personally noticed a decrease in queue times in the 50s PvP bracket. If there is a difference, it is a small one, but then, I'm on a relatively high-population server.

 

I find the games to be generally more balanced (a lvl 50 in crap gear is still miles ahead of a level 10 in crap gear, Bolster or no Bolster), and have had a lot more close matches in this system.

 

Previously, I'd either be steamrolling or being steamrolled, very often due to the ratio of geared 50s to lowbies. With people at least moderately aware of the ins and outs of their classes mechanics, there seems to be a bit less incompetence in playstyle.

 

 

TL;DR

 

I enjoy the new brackets. I've yet to try the 1-49 bracket yet, but I imagine I'll enjoy it immensely as well.
