    Question War Mode = RP Mode?

    I've never been a big PvPer, but BfA feels like a PvP expansion. How better to RP a world at war? How better to simulate how your character would feel in such a world? Having to watch your back, look closer at strangers before approaching, use judgment on when to engage and when to avoid...

    I know some RP has nothing to do with the story that Blizz is telling atm, but if you work in current events AT ALL, if current lore is part of your RP story, then it seems like WM should be part of that. With all its glory as well as its inconveniences.

    It's a dangerous world! Light be with you.

    RPing getting the shit ganked out of you by saying "OW OW OW good sir"...

    More on point, you would travel in groups for protection or be bold/suicidal and go lone wolf.

    As much as anything, I like feeling that I have to be careful when I am out in the wilds.
    Isn't that how it's supposed to be when adventuring in a fantasy world?

    Planning to use Warmode for leveling my next RP character - if we get another char slot - but the sad part is that even if a dangerous world but people are dicks by nature and wouldn't be able to accept people RP'ing, so using Warmode as a permanent thing just won't be for me.

    There is definitely no better way to make it truly feel like a faction war expansion than to try to do neutral WQs in warmode, that's for sure.

    Going WM is like inviting all the trolls to come. Then again, as soon as they get bounty, then all the RP'ers that can PvP will retaliate.

    We had it for our event and went bad.

    I'm using it as said for my alts, going fine. Some classes people don't seem to go for.

    In a game where you respawn after some time? Nope.
