The Warcraft Formula

Before the Wrath of the Lich King release, World PvP was really just a small part of World of Warcraft. Outland had a few basic objectives available, where you could do basic stuff like capturing Haala or the towers and beacons in Hellfire, Terrokar Forest, and Zangarmarsh. The objectives were easy but few people attempted them because the rewards were small and was often zone-wide so everyone got it. There was no reason to join in if a dozen other players did it for you once every hour or two.

But that all changed when WotLK hit and the game started emphasizing more advanced, real time battles in World PvP with their first real time PvP battle zone in Lake Wintergrasp. The new zone has players going at it in epic battles on the live server and getting rewarded with points that allow them to buy rare and valuable items, including the new Heirloom items that any character in their account regardless of that character’s level can take advantage of.

In the end, while there are new PvP objectives and World PvP options in Grizzly Hills as well, you are only going to hear about Lake Wintergrasp, where Blizzard has put into place more options than ever before to get players involved, ensures that the content remains fresh and relevant and to build up a means by which they can grow their PvP options to compete with other MMOs built entirely on PvP, like Warhammer Online.

It’s clear that World PvP is immensely popular. All you have to do is check out how much people are talking about Lake Wintergrasp and how much time their characters are spending there to see it’s true. And that means we’re likely to see many more new World PvP options in future expansions and patches. Building up your skills now will pay huge dividends in the future, especially if you want to start getting the top rewards and achievements.
