Just had a taste of 2.4 honor system

Joined up a WSG (my daily Q ) came in when it was 2-1 flags to our favour .... both flags was carried ....

And now to the fun part , 6-8 allies at our GY killing and killing and killing , we dropped their flag , they diddnt even hand in , continue kill and HK farm (for fun i guess).... in 2.4 its gonna be a strategy to gain max honor from a WSG (the only one that has a single GY and no other way to win than handing in flags)....one of my rare moments i got myself a deserter buff was in that game ....

Think Blizz need to rethink either WSG OR the "HK farm friendly change" ... wonder what they was thinking about ... "Hey guys , the HK farmers need a boost so no one ever wins a BG anymore , we start to run out of badges" ... imagine the 80 man battlefield in AV middle ...... imagine the HK farming at EoTS flag .... WSG gy no comment .....and all of the funny corpsecamping in world pvp .... yay|||Patch 2.4: "With this change we�re including a few restrictions as well though: Players that have the resurrection sickness debuff will not be worth any honor, and if a player dies 50 times or more during a battleground they won�t be worth any honor for the remainder of that battle."

10 ppl x 50 = 500 HKs max (WSG)

40 ppl x 50 = 2000 HKs max (AV)


|||my guess is that BG's will die ..... better get that honor for the desierd gear before patch , after its just gonna be "fragfest" and no one wanna win ..... hell the more i think about it i wonder what the HELL Blizz is thinking ....

Corpsecamped 50 times , and the allie GETS GOOD HONOR FROM IT (while i cancel my account )

1 badge/BG game , and all BG's takes helluva time to finish (me tearing my hair and cancel my account)

The one and only thing i can see good from the STUPID idea is that i gonna have helluva fun with the rogue again (thank god he got some of the honor stuff i want and rest arena gear) killing and camping 65-70 allies FIFTY FAUCKING TIMES befoer they cancel their accounts too|||Run away from the spirit healer so that you don't get autoressed!

hehe sounds like a fun BG game ... "ghost loose"|||Edit: Are they getting rid of diminishing returns past 5 kills ?|||Quote:

Yes, it deteriorates after 50 kills in 2.4.

This is the only change I really dislike. BG's are already filled with HK junkies that are there simply to farm honor. Esp in WSG and EOTS. Win or lose I like to be in and out as fast as possible.

If you are in one of the battle groups that is heavily dominated by Horde or Alliance this will make BG's pointless. Even in the Battlegroups that have more even Horde/Alli win ratios, it could make the battle go on for way too long.

I do like the change where honor is updated real time so we don't have to wait a day to see what we got.|||I can see people sticking around for like 15 minutes in a BG, deserting out, going back and doing it again for a LOT of BGs anymore. :(

They really need to get the Looking For Premade in the LFG interface with this patch. Cross-realm LF Premade would ROXXORS! I doubt that will happen though.|||Guess it's time to go back to not queueing without a premade.|||Note that there will be new battleground-related daily quests. Hopefully, they will reward players for completing BG-relevant objectives (like 'Capture three nodes in EotS' or 'Return a flag'), so that people have an extra incentive to do something other than farming HKs.
