One of the core tenets of the Warcraft universe is the
raging conflict between the Horde and the Alliance. Old
hatreds die hard, as they say, and the hate shared
between these two ancient foes is deep and primal.
That's why the player-versus-player gameplay has always
been a staple of the design for World of Warcraft; the
war between the Horde and the Alliance simply isn't
over.
In the battle for Azeroth, certain territories have
become focal points for conflict between the Horde and
Alliance. Battlegrounds represent key locations where
this struggle has escalated into all-out war. Each
battleground presents a different challenge and
environment, and victory here must be achieved not
through sheer numbers, but through strategy, skill, and
grit.
Battleground Holidays
olidays occur during most weekends, starting on Thursday
night at midnight and continuing until Tuesday morning.
During a holiday, emmissaries from one Battleground can
be found in the major cities, and honor/faction rewards
for performing objectives in that battleground are
increased. To find out when the next Holiday is
happening, check out the Events Calendar. Cross-Realm
Battlegrounds
atch 1.12: The Drums of War introduced cross-realm PvP
Battlegrounds, linking Alterac Valley, Warsong Gulch,
and Arathi Basin so that players from several realms
will be combined into one huge matchmaking pool. You can
check out the full battlegroup list to find out which
battlegroup you're in and which realms you'll be
competing against.
