- Tenacity
- Being outnumbered has increased your tenacity, improving your health, healing and health regen by 18% and increasing your damage dealt by 14%
This buff is applied to the side that has the fewest members in Wintergrasp during a wintergrasp PvP battle. It is applied with varying levels of stacking, with an apparent maximum of 20 stacks.
- Characters, per stack
- health (HP) increased by 18%
- health regen increased by 18%
- amount of healing received increased by 18%
- amount of damage dealt increased by 14%
- Tenacity is only granted to characters of level 70 or greater.
- Vehicles, per stack
- health (HP) increased by 18%
Theories on stacking[]
The algorithm for how many stacks to apply is unknown, although a previous hotfix[1] has indicated that only characters level 70 and higher are counted.
There are proponents both for linear stacking (stacks = C * (x-y), for some value C) and exponential stacking (stacks = 10x/y). More research is needed.
Patch 4.0.3 Change[]
- As of November 16, 2010 and the release of Patch 4.0.3, Tenacity no longer applies to players during the battle. This is due to the implementation of a population balancing system that maintains the population at a 1:1 ratio. This was an undocumented change, implemented to test the balancing system before deployment to Tol Barad.
