Legit Tol barad is horrid

[FelPlague]

So i am trying to do the rep and dailies for tol barad to get the tokens so i can get the mount.
however half the tokens are locked behind owning tol barad, now with wintergrasp it is usually horde takes one, alliance takes one ,back and forth so everyone gets a shot.

however with tol Barad i just noticed it is literally impossible to take.
so i enter, and there is a level 86 mage
i am a level 110 warlock
and guess who wins?
the mage
because as the attacker i need to capture all three buildings at once to claim tol barad so i can do my dailies.
but i cant, cause as i capture one, he recapatures another.
meaning i literally have NOTHING I CAN DO but to just say "lol fuck my dailies i guess"
and i cant get in the seige tanks to destroy the towers and extend the match, and at this time of night it is impossible to find someone else.


has blizzard made any statement on this? because this is just horrid that dailies are locked behind this, so literally a single level 86 mage can DOUBLE my farming time for this rep and tokens...

Sorry if this ranty but holy fucking shit blizzard, this is pathetic.

You want to earn the rewards as quickly as possible, got to win the battleground. If you can't, you have to be satisfied with the quests on the peninsula. Working as intended.

[Mustardisbad]

Do you not have any friends to help you cap it?

[Accendor]

he is not doubling your time, he is halving his time.

so a level 110 getting beat in pvp by a single level 86 is good gameplay by your logic?

[Airlick]

Blizzard should probably change Hellfire Peninsula towers while they are at it.

Uhh no he is doubling my time.
i get 7 tokens a day, i need 200 for the mount
now if you control tol barad you get another 7, meaning if i can get tol barad i can half the days i need to reach the mount.
however because a level 86 mage is able to stop a level 110, i can only get 7.

It is 3:20 am for me on a thrusday night, all of my friends are either asleep, or busy. and you only get 10 minutes now i need to wait another hour to try again, so im gunna go see if i can get 2 more level 110's so we can beat THIS LEVEL 86 MAGE

Just get two mates to join you at a more reasonable h our, or are you billy no mates?

But really, im sure blizz don't give a hoot about Tol Barad, especially when it is a "problem" that can easily be solved by grouping with 2 other people.

[XDurionX]

It's almost as if the attacker would have to bring reinforcements to take something over.

Hard to find mates at 3:20am in the morning :P
normally i would be fine but its very early morning so.

its allmost like a level 86 should not be able to beat a level 110 in a 1v1?

[HumbleDuck]

Much salt.
Btw, It works as intended.

[Temp name]

Seems to be working as intended. It's meant to be a 40+ player thing, and you're doing it with 2.

Also, he's just doing it for his own benefit, not for your detriment.

[Aggrophobic]

It's not really intended as solo content. Get a group.

[FelPlague]

And i dont think a level 86 being able to beat a level 110 at anything is something that should be intended.

Except it's not a 1v1, it's a battle ground.

So to counter 1 person i should have to bring 3?

so should we suddenly make cataclysm raids require a group?

It seems wierd when blizzard makes old bosses made for 20 people able to be solod (Spine, green dragon, etc), but now that i am asking for the same for a open world Bg people are like "working as intended, git gud"

[HumbleDuck]

Why not? It's a battle ground, it is supposed to be tactical and the fact that you can't cap just by bruteforce (on your own atleast) is a testament to its good design.

[Dareous]

Make a group in the group finder, get some more night owl friends or do it during the day when more people are online.

Yeah, because it's a BATTLEGROUND. You're not fighting him when you're just running around. He has the same weight for the objectives as you, because he's the same amount of player. If You had 2 friends and he had 2 friends you'd stomp them, but since you're only 1, you have to deal with the fact that he's worth just as much to the system as you.

What would you suggest? Make it so that only 110's can do it? Instead of the 85's it was designed for?
