EU Battlegroups

[RN]

Hiya,

Could anyone recommend an EU battlegroup where the Alliance doesn't suck
big-time? I want to work on PvP achievements for my rogue, she's in Cruelty
now (Nightfall before the merge), and with the way the Allies play there it
seems it's gonna take forever and a day. Other battlegroups I have tried
are Cataclysm (Bloodlust before the merge) and Vindication. In the former
incredible idiocy ruled all over at lower levels (how about lvl80 BG's
there?) and in the latter I played a Hordie at lower level and we were
dominating there a great most of the time, plus people confirm that at
lvl80 PvP'ers mostly switch to Horde out of frustration.

I thought about temporarily changing factions, but then I would lose all my
Argent Tournament achievements, an idea I don't like very much. :)

Any experience anyone?

I am levelling (incredibly slowly) an Alliance rogue on Grim Batol
which is on Misery. I've heard decent things about the Misery
battlegroup for Alliance side.

Do not under any circumstances come to Vindication. Actually, I can
only speak from Horde side, but the battlegroup is dead. It's the
smallest battlegroup, and has the biggest population imbalance,
leading to loooooooong queues on Horde side, and some battlegrounds
just aren't played at all. No jokes, you cannot play IoC or SotA at
any time, and AV and EotS are only playable on holiday weekends but
not otherwise. WSG and AB are possible most days, with about a 5-10
minute wait for a game.

So I'd recommend checking out the Misery battlegroup forums.
Surprisingly few complaints about imbalance, blah blah, which I take
as a good sign.

I think I'll have to try it out at some point.

Hehe, thanks for the warning. :)
