#1 - Jan. 28, 2014, 11:39 p.m.

Alright then, am i the only one tired of Qing up for a BG and getting stuck with 3-5 players still in greens low PVP gear? Stay with me now... How would everyone like a BG you could Q up for with a ITEM LVL requirement? I mean PVEers have those restrictions(HEROIC) to help keep the frustrations of getting wiped from a under geard toon. and it gives you a little challenge. wheres the love for the PVPers? -that is all

We talk about stuff like this from time to time, but it's not quite so simple. For example, queue times are a big issue. Separating players out by item level certainly wouldn't help, and in fact, could make things far worse. Having more equally-matched opponents in your random BG would be nice, but having to wait an hour or longer... not so much :(

That said, we're hoping to make a lot of improvements to Random BG's in Warlords. If we get the opportunity to do something like this, we can look into it.

Side note since I brought it up: we're also looking into queue times. We have a few ideas for changes we might make, but nothing for certain to share just yet.
