    Winning 1+1 BGs has absolutely nothing to do with "PVPing", not in the slightest. I´ve done that part of the questchain on 3 chars in pve gear, and on none of them it took me more than 6 BGs, let alone 60. You have to sabotage your own team on purpose to get a streak like that.

    60 BG losses in a row has finally made me not care to get this cloak anymore.
    Sorry, I'm not buying it. You are exagerating or lying your ass off.

    world of WARcraft - the name stands for the conflict between two factions. the game is PVP based. there should be a lot more PVP involved in everything - it would be great for the game. the legendary quest is nice step into the right direction!

    the pvp bg's are the easier of them...

    ohh and the BG's part is a little' easier as well, gear being downscaled if you go in with to high, EVERYONES base resil at 40%...
    basically you can't get so utterly outgeared by a premade it's impossible...

    that high of a losing streak...i call BS on as well...never, ever, have i gone more than 20 or so losing games, and thats exceedingly rare... usually about 4 wins per 5 or 6 losses...

    one thing you could do...seems lots of people bot at night...try during another time of day. less bots on your team = higher chance of winning?
    easier ? the quest was never hard .. its just time consuming and its fucking annoying so late in this xpac.. remove valor quest or let People buy cloaks who already finished the Quest on 1 Char

    no, it's not. it's "here, look at the content and get free epics without any effort". and that's ok. but don't call it "real raiding".

    That is some serious bullshit or some insane bad luck. Ive been pvping since release and ive never even been close to that.

    Im not trying to make you feel bad, but I 1 shot the PvP quests. Won both first time and carried on with my quest. I probably have you to thank for it since because of your bad luck, I got some good luck to balance it out. Thank you.

    I mostly win my BGs. Even when queuing alone. You should find something useful to do in the BG. Let me explain. Back in the end Cataclysm I could kill any class in a short time on my Rogue (no Legendary daggers, I never do PvE). It's not of much use to kill random people in a BG. I decided to kill the enemy FCs in WSG and TP. I decided to kill the enemy Tanks when they tried to kill our Boss in AV or IoC. This made sure that I could make a difference in the outcome of the BG.

    Find something you are good at in PvP with your class, and start making a difference.

    You say that most people don't want to team up for BG because they don't need this part of the quest anymore. Try to queue up with 4 Full Geared PvPers (of which 1 or 2 Healers). PvPers are doing this all the time.

    Also, I don't believe that you have lost that many BGs in a row. It's impossible.

    I don't think SSM was 50/50, especially given that Blizzard hotfixed a change to it on Oct 16 to help the alliance.

    OP: in SSM, to have a chance at winning, the alliance had to charge the lava cart immediately to try to convert it before it went down. They recently hotfixed SSM so that cart spawns after a short delay, which might help. However, so many good alliance PvPers have blacklisted that BG that it still may be hard to win.

    Blizzard should get rid of the blacklisting feature. It's had seriously bad unintended side effects.

    Frankly I was angry at the pvp requirement to. And even though I finished it in 4 bg's it was still the most retarded requirement of all time. Whoever came up with that in bliz's office deserve to be cock slapped by ron jeremy.

    Even if u stand AFK in 60 BGs, the odds of not winning 1 is very slim. Other than that, the only way i believe that u spend 3 months getting the sigils, is if u ran the wrong LFRs for them, as ToT doesnt drop them.

    I agree that the legendary quest takes a bit too long sometimes, if unlucky with RNG, i just got mine 2 days ago, BUT, it is however a legendary item, so it should take long to get.

    This kind of QQ post, i think u just made because it is a desired item, that u couldnt get from charrity as fast as u had hoped.

    In my eyes, you shouldnt even be able to get the legendary Q items from LFR, only real raiders should get it. As it is infact the "best" item in the game atm.
    Amen, the op is really just making some sort of fuss this is quite ridiculous!

    He shouldn't even be complaninig about anything.

    At no point in time did Blizzard say it wouldn't include PvP. Pandaria's storyline is based on the FACTION WAR, it would sort of be stupid if the main legendary questline didn't include the faction war

    If you're having PvP troubles I feel bad for ya son, I got 99 sigils but a strength ain't one. Nerf me!

    But, seriously, if you think trying to get a couple of BG wins is bad, then you're gonna love getting those secrets and runestones...

    Both are harder then raiding in Vanillia and most of TBC and harder then everything up to uld in wrath. So by you saying LFR and Flex is not real raiding you are also saying there was no real raids or raiders in Vanillia/TBC/Part of Wrath and I bet a lot of people would disagree with you on that.

    Well, I agree that LFR/Flex is "real raiding" although I don't really know what that term means anymore, LFR/flex are just tuned down compared to normal mode. Can't say I agree with you on them being harder than raiding in Vanilla most of TBC... classes werent as well equipped in many aspects (think Mana usage/ AoE tanking), the ability was there but it wasn't written down for you clearly to understand, you had to figure this stuff out which created a large divide between seasoned players and newcomers, casuals we're also a minority back then... everyone wanted to raid!

    I'm sorry OP but you're just a liar simple as that. There's no fucking chance sigils took 3 months. And the likelihood of that sort of BG loss rate is literally a million to one, never read such bullshit in 1 post, there's so much bullshit I can actually taste it

    Don't even care if im infracted, hopefully a nice infraction gets the taste of shit off my tonuge

    Let's just ignore the fact that the alleged "faction war" in pandaria was almost as big of a joke as the entire "faction war" that hasn't been really taking place since warcraft 2.

    I mean they go out of their way to make the races work together in every expansion. Let's stop fooling ourselves by thinking the races are at war. They're not. And they haven't been for a long time.
