Will the expansion create a more even playing field for all?
MMORPG.com have posted an editorial which takes a look at the issue of balance in WoW. It outlines the viewpoint that the game as it stands now is unbalanced and unfair to the average player, and poses the question as to whether the expansion will help restore balance to the game.
This expansion brings a chance to correct the imbalance that items have caused. Right now you can have a level 60 Warrior in average gear with 4000 armor, 4100 Hit points, dealing 400 damage, and he is supposed to exist in a game where another Warrior of the same level that has 7000 HP, 7300 armor and deals 1100 damage? With new weapons and items coming out there is a chance that this can be corrected. A new hope can be brought to all! Will people who PvP and the people who just toil in the game with a solid small group of 5-10 friends now be able to compete on the same level?
