Do you hate Twinks and WHY?

Beitrag von Blanman

Some one needs to define a twink one day, Ive seen ppl in all green, maybe one blue armor piece claim there twinks, and even handle themselves. I personaly work to get the good gear regaudless if its for the BGs, I started on a pvp server so gear was always brought up.

Enchants is another story, but I try to get a few when I can, espeacialy if I know that armor is going to stay on me.

I got a char thats so old he still has the corporal title, and hes only 45. Why I quit here and there due to gold buying spam, and I use the BGs as a fun escape. But on top of that when I played I spent more time working my engy skills, and getting coin for mats out of my league. I always looked for the best gear, lvling came last. And I have killed plenty of twinks, it takes a group, or the use of my toys, but the rush of taking down a guy who can two hit you using tactics, is great. And since then I have made it more of a goal to focus on gear, because pvp with out the right gear is pointles.

I play this game for the BGs now, its the only game I can get this action from. And I do so knowing that just like in real life ppl are going to be asses and keep building twinks to tower of you. Easiest way is to accept it. If you can't accept there going to be there waiting for you in the BGs, you should probaly stick to dueling.

I disagree completely with the people who hate twinks, Half of the "facts" your saying make no sence, and you realise by saying that the elitist twinks who only think for themselves are egomaniacs who have no life, Well your here saying crap about them, well that just makes YOU what your complaining about.

Saying someone has an Egotistical, Self Centered, Bullying and Level Elitist mind set is hardly sinking to their level given I'm sure most people could think of a few more colorful phrases that Twinks have used on them. But wait actually being told by Twinks in BG's either you should kill yourself in RL or that you should stfu and gtfo noob because "bliz didn't make this game so non Twinks could ruin BG's for the Twinks".

Hell not sure what the language allowed on hear is but if you want I'll get my sis to post some of the things that where said to her her first ever BG her first week playing the game. Seriously I doubt I'd sink so low as some of the Twinks I've come across...

OH, heh I did meet my first nice Twink the other day so I guess there are a few remotely decent Twinks out there. She actually seemed pretty nice encuraging the level 10's we had in the BG that they would be best help on D calling where the enemy ran with our flag...but we also had the other 6 Twinks that kept telling people to report the level 10's and me so we could be replaced with more Twinks...

The new players should level up to 70 then join BG's, because let's face it. TBC has been around so long now that any low level BG's are litterally for twinks. Pre-tbc you would see 1 or 2 twinks in a game, now because honor has removed ranks and is hardly awarding, they just make a twink for fun. Really BG's should only be entered at 70 unless your twinking because that's where the honor is. There is actually no firm reason why a 19, 29, 39, 49, or 60 should be in the BG's for more than 5 times that level for maybe potions or gear.

I've BG'd since I hit level 10 with my first character and I love BG's and I'll tell you even with the new honor system it takes more than 5 games in each bracket to get the BG Gear since even 5 WINNING games aren't enough to give you the Tokens to cover it.

Example: for my hunter which I'm currently working to get these items from WSG before heading into Ashenvale to hunt some Ally.
Lorekeeper's Staff = 630 Honor + 40 Marks
Outrunner's Bow= 315 Honor + 30 Marks
Protector's Band= 95 Honor + 20 Marks
Sentinel's Medallion= 95 Honor + 20 Marks

So lets see depending on when I join WSG at lvl 19 (aka do I join just before we win or do I actually get to do something)...
50-100 Honor + 3 Marks for a winning game
25-50 Honor + 1 Mark for a losing game

Even if I won all the games I played I'd need roughly 12-22 Games for the Honor to be covered and a total of 37 Games to make sure Marks where covered.

So tell me again where you got your math of "There is actually no firm reason why a 19, 29, 39, 49, or 60 should be in the BG's for more than 5 times that level for maybe potions or gear."?

I don't mind twinks that much, because, you know, you feel so much better when you brought down a tough opponent then just one-shotting the level 30's. I like when there's a Tauren twinked Warrior, you just know "Man, this is going to get tough!"
Because team-work can bring down the biggest opponents.
I actually see that teamworking teams win, no matter what levels they are.
Especially Pally/Rogues that work together, they can freeze an opponent in one spot and kill them.
I also saw a priest that would heal a warlock, which made it next to impossible to kill the warlock.

I think it's rude when people tell those who are low leveled that it's "unfair" and that they are "destroying the game". >\
I mean, not all of us take the game dead-serious, I play battlegrounds because they are fun and if the other team is all twinked, then it's not my problem. I get my honor, I get my medal. I have fun. I get what I want.
But I only play battlegrounds as 19/29 because then I last longer. ^^

The only twinks I really don't like are Rogues, because I'm a hunter they sneak up on me and kill me in one blow with backstab. >_<
What I do is place a Freezing Trap, then walk so that it is just behind me and LOL when the Rogue turnes into a big block of ice! XD
Dosen't matter how twinked they are. I just love it ^^
