Tired of people using WG exploits to win..

[Draught]

..while Blizzard doesn't give a shit about it?

I had no idea horde also could do this, but it doesn't really change the fact it has to be fixed.

This happens on my server too. Horde always have 16 siege engines at our walls in 2 mins or less. My understanding is that they aren't actually exploiting and that what actually happens is they get max rank and the ability to make siege engines from just 1 kill..... so they kill 1 alliance and instantly make the siege engines.

I think it's to do with tenacity so whichever team has few players can do it.

Why do people keep complaining about this...

It's NOT an exploit! It's a built-in mechanic included with Tenacity. If you're on the offensive with tenacity, the first kill you get gives you max rank.

That's pretty stupid. I've noticed alliance doing this on my server, seems like a pretty lame balancing mechanism.

Personally I wish they'd fix the lag that always seems to show up at the last few minutes of the game, often giving the alliance an easy win because they can just lag past everyone.

on my server this usually happens when ppl try and defend the work shop closest to the opposing factions landing camp. the team gets 20x tenacity because of bad lag mechanics and defenders being there before attackers. Than 1 kill gives max rank too all and boom 16 siege tanks.

I actually know a guy that has an alliance 80 on our server on a separate account and will park it just so we can rank up and win WG in 4 mins.

I've also noticed that Horde, who are outnumbered on my server, tend to start with 4 workshops capped instead of just the southern two. I think all of these "exploits" are designed to help the disadvantaged side win more often while on offense, since they probably lose on defense 95% of the time.

The problem is it is a stupid mechanic (not referring to tenacity, although that has issues, but the insta max rank).

Think about it. You have tenacity. That means there are far more opposition players than you. That means you are way more buffed than the opposition. It should be EASY for the tenacity team to rack up kills. On the other hand, think how hard it is for the non-tenacity team to get 10 kills. Try killing a paladin or a tree druid with 5 stacks of tenacity on them. Takes half the night. The whole tenacity/rank thing should be either reversed, or better yet, just eliminated.

Sometimes the brains at blizzard just don't seem to grasp the obvious.
