Warriors/Rogues and AV rep?

[Concillian]

I dropped in on a Terenas AV a couple of weeks ago, just to see how things are working now and was a little confused. There was no PvP, it was just a straight out PvE race to the generals. While I certainly haven't missed the six hour games of old, it was a little sad to see the complete lack of player on player encounters.

Mind you, that's easy for me to say when I already have exalted (on Stormscale). I know I would've hated having to grind through any more of those horrendous games that there used to be on Terenas.

There is PvP action, but it's away from the 2 zergs. AV has become a place where it's good for alliance to gain honor. You can often find some of the top alliance PvP honor grinders outside the horde cave plucking off the unsuspectiong people coming out one at a time. They can get full kill credit on a large number of people this way. That can be an interesting place to hang around for small scale group PvP. Defending GYs will also generally bring some of the better PvPers out. The zerg is just that. Each side is mostly rolling over the other in the zerg.

I was still in a couple LOONG games, they are just pretty rare now compared to when AV was first starting. I remember one particular game I went into, looked at the time it was up and it read over 20 hours. People were coming into the game saying "wait, this is the same game I was in yesterday" Those games are fun for a bit, but horrible for rep, and with very few exceptions, horde are only in there for rep, since horde honor grinders have much greener pastures in the AFK Gulch.
