WoW: Forever’s PvP Episode Leaves Realm and Terrain Questions

The fourth WoW: Forever Podcast episode focused on PvP ahead of the $100,000 Forever Open dueling tournament. It featured the usual hosts, Senior Game Designer Josh “Aggrend” Greenfield, Lead Classic Designer Tim Jones, and creators Tips Out and Savix.[3]

Some listeners reacted to the apparent absence of an RP-PvP realm. One called that choice surprising; another said they planned to refund their collection and urged other RP-PvP players to do the same. Their comments show why realm type matters to players seeking a combined roleplay and PvP experience.[4][5]

Players also asked whether the PvP realm would enforce faction balance, and what the episode meant by “terrain exploiting.” These questions point to practical uncertainties beyond the argument over specific jumps.[1][2]

The jump debate turns on what counts as an exploit. One commenter said out-of-bounds jumps would be fixed but argued that fence and tunnel jumps are learnable tactics, comparable to using arena pillars. Another condemned terrain exploiting as cheating and said it can stall games. The disagreement is over whether these moves are legitimate terrain play or unfair exploits.[6][7]
