Just got attacked and flagged by a pair of these in the Ruins of Ogudei dailies area (the caves), which was beyond annoying. Not only was it a pair of elites that aggro'd me outta nowhere, but on a PVE server... well just not a fan of this surprise.
The horde counterpart: [npc=67821]
The life of these guys seems to be dependant on the realms popularity. If there's a lot of horde and few alliance on the realm, they seem to get more health. However, if it's reverse (More alliance players than horde) they seem to go down in health, while the horde guards goes up. They're equipped with extremly annoying crowd control abilites.
It can be discussed wether or not this is a good thing, since it gives the other faction a chance to compete in game on the unbalanced server.
Last seen with 5.3 million health.
Confirmed: The life on the guards DOES NOT change if the other faction has more points than you. This makes a group of 4-5 alliances able to capture all the points in no time, and keep them for quite a while.
