Mixed realms RVR

[pvprangergod]

Have each of the 6 armies divided in two factions, no longer Order or Destruction.

For example, Greenskins + High Elves + Empire Vs. Dwarfs + Dark Elves + Chaos.

And with a rotation that changes the faction makeup e.g. every 2 weeks.

I don't want to group with feathered punks.

The road North to IC is paved with dead zealots, and lined with the spiked heads of squig herders and shamans!!!!

Nope Nope Nope ... I like things as they are.

But in all seriousness, can we at least keep the theme of the game as the one we who have been playing for over 10 years fell in love with? RvR changed, LoTD changed ... WAR is an Order vs Destruction story. Can we keep that?

[Rydiak]

Could be good for normal SCs.

Just add skaven as a playable faction.. They can fight for or against either side.

balance issue
no good tool for equal fights in instances
no good balance between spells for each realm
no fixes of domination destro
in close future - no order to kill and nothing to play with

this sounds great tbh as a game mode.

I suggest as well like an "outcast mode", you have a 6man and you are enemy of both realms and you can break havoc ganking both sides, prob getting zerged a lot lol but maybe u get more xp and rr?

This wouldn't work lore-wise as-is.

Ranked SC was kind of a small exception - however, you could add Vampire Counts/Tomb Kings/Skaven as a playable SC faction and it might make sense - would need something like a raven/rat/scarab instead of lion/squig, change some of the appearances (ie; magus doesn't need its disc and uses sorc anims), and you could pass off the players as vampire counts / tomb kings for the duration of the SC.

This would only work with automatically matchmade parties.

What is out of balance? Power between mirrors? This game was not designed with mirrors. This game was designed with Destro having more damage, and Order being better at healing/def stats. Devs are trying their best and real hard to balance everything, but, as I said, the game was designed like this.
WAR went out of the box and was made to be challenging, and hard.

No equal fights in what instances?

Already mentioned it above. WAR was not made to to be mirrored/balanced in traditional means.

Where were your complaints 2 months ago when Order had been dominating RvR for almost a year if not longer? This game cycles. Always has, all the way back to live. One realm dominates for a time period, then the other as players get bored playing the same realm night after night and switch over. THAT is a very healthy thing. It keeps things balanced, if you are patient enough to wait through the other realms domination. Or be really smart and roll a toon on other realm, and play the entire game not just 50%.

I have to admit. Some of players who only play one realm are the type to run and play something else if they are not winning everything 24/7 365 a year. If you want to go play something else, do it. Enough of us will keep playing order to make it fun. There is a sizable group of players who chase aao. We know that being outnumbered means high rewards for those good enough to take advantage.

Two realms is the best model for this game. Anything else will make it unplayable.
