Quick edit - the title originally said PvP titles, not toys. Sorry for reading too quickly :)

I find it interesting how frequently these "unable to use x item bugs" occur on Alliance.

This, the Dazar'Alor Windreaver mount not even being usable.
It makes me think the devs do the majority of their playtesting on Horde.

I demand a refund!

Most of the devs play Horde, so I honestly wouldn't be surprised if all testing which isn't strictly faction based is tested on Horde.

I would be very surprised.

Also, that Brawler’s Guild bug just happened to me, glad I can rank up!

I guess I never really payed attention during the fight, but I assumed immunities always cleared stacks sinmce they can break the iceblock stun.

Was not expect that, so killing Jaina will be easier on hc now thats great, can someone provide information about which classes have immunity as in the example?

Actually those are kinda all of the immunities that should be doing that. Things like Turtle from hunter do not remove Debuffs to the best of my knowledge,it does however stop them from applying.

Will you still be able to lvl up your HoA after the new system is implemented if it hasn't reached lvl 50 yet?

Comment by Dhrall

Amazing how alliance players find something to whine about in any situation. 100% MDI players and more or less 90% AWC players chosing alliance races in tournaments. There's still Horde bias. 400 ilvl loot for free at det start of BoD, and nothing for Horde. Still Horde bias. Quality of life changes to Dazar'alor came very late, while none of those issues were happening in Boralus. Still Horde bias. And the list goes on.

Now because a toy doesn't work on a female human, this is proof that testing is all done on Horde? Do you honestly think they test every toy/item/mount in every situation for every race/class/gender combination? Give me a break!

No matter how favourable it gets to be alliance, people whining about it in threas like this is going to put me off ever maining alliance ^^ GL in your chests today, EU folks!:-)

i can second this, last patch, the boat of sw to northend broke. XD (fixed now btw)

I think you could reset the being frozen on Jaina with iceblock, just not the chilling touch debuffs itself. Now you can just reset stacks at 19 without the need of being frozen.

Major update to Azerite system, eh? I really hope it is, beyond just power upgrades, much as I enjoy those.

Also, pity there's no fix to Horde players not having a port to Blasted Lands.

Comment by Moorningwood

What about when the Horde got the warfront week on the same week that Uldir opened? Where they pretty much ran around in full 340 gear and a 370 and had an easier time in Uldir because of it.
Or the fact that they could literally gear any newly levelled alt in few hours from the warfronts since they had no level requirement when it was up for them?

Or what about when horde had warmode domination for months untill 8.1? There were literally posts on wow forums telling ppl on horde side who didn't have warmode on that they're missing a free 10% bonus.

Or what about mounts? You got unique mounts from all factions in Zandalar including a mount from quest only obtainable as horde, while Alliance got horses and more horses.

Or what about the Allied races? You got what you asked for, you got brown orcs, you got Nightborne and Zandalari trolls and even customizations for Orcs and Blood elves (Straight back and golden eyes). While Alliance got holier Draenei and asspulled elves and fat humans.

Or what about racials? Where almost every single end mythic guild and top pvpers switched to Horde side which led to more ppl switching to Horde side.

But yes as you can see there's clearly no bias going and only Alliance crying for no reason as always am i right?

Horde players still have teleport, just talk to the npc near shat portal.

Comment by zequill

I remember last time someone brought up the MDI to talk about faction imbalance. After double checking, it's was 50/50, mostly depending on the instance. The dungeon mostly run by Alliance group were some weird gimmick group like 5 monk while the dungeon mostly run by horde group had normal balanced group. So Alliance group are only good in some gimmick group for specific dungeon, how great!
