For example in those days the chances for a level 20 spellcaster to MISS a lvl 29 were 55% (!), so less than 1 out of every 2 spells would actually be useful. If you add the differences of gear and skills available in the next 9 levels, a level 20 is gimping his team by a lot more than a lvl 51 would gimp an Alterac Valley team in 51-60. As a general rule of thumb, I tried to avoid joining a battleground on any character below level 26 (a flagrunner being a possible exception). This particular game had 7 out of 15 players below that threshold, with 3 being plain fodder at level 20, so the score shouldn't come as a surprise... 2 20440 64477 WoWScrnShot_061014_001453.jpg 171174 600 image/jpeg 800 2 true true 2008-08-03T07:36:12-04:00 113878 4
