Alterac Valley
Alterac Valley is by its size the most extensive battlefield available and functional in our country. Battleground is located in the Alterac Mountains.
Basic information
- Battleground is available for levels 51-80 (specifically 51-60, 61-70 and 71-80)
- the minimum number of players for one faction to start BG is 20
- the maximum number of players in BG for one faction is 40
The winner is a team that is 1. kills the general of the second faction or reduces the enemy reinforcements to 0
Tactics
After teleporting to the battleground, both factions are found in the tunnels (the Alliance at Stormpike Dwarf Base in Dun Baldar and the Horde at the Orc Tribe in Frostowolf Keep). The upper half of the battleground belongs to the Alliance, the lower half to the Horde. There are buildings and cemeteries throughout the battleground. Half of the alliance and the hordes are divided by Snowfall Graveyard, which is one of the most important places in the game.
The basis for winning is the agreement of the whole team. It is possible to win by the style that the whole group of players goes directly to the general of the second faction, but it also has a certain risk. Even a small defense of the opponent can throw the second faction, and so the whole attack can be thwarted. Therefore, it is worth leaving the defense in the form of a smaller number of players who would alert the rest of the team in case of danger. In the meantime, other players can occupy cemeteries that are not under their control or destroy the towers of the second faction (you destroy the tower by coloring the flag on its top).
Both teams start with 600 reinforcements. For 1 player killed by the opposition faction, the faction killed by 1 reinf. point. For the destruction of one faction tower, this faction will lose 70 reinf. points, for killing the captain by 100 points.
If you get enemy reinforcements to the freezing point, you become the winner. The faster way to win is to kill the enemy general, which is located in the main base of the faction, but often the general is defending both NPCs and players.
