Why does AV marks still give 398 honor per turn in. Buff it to at minimum 2500 honor!

I absolutely cannot wait for AB matches where >10 Alliance pinkmonkeys are Rank 12+ … AND THEY STILL INTENTIONALLY LOSE

I’ve given up on AB because of that. Mid match group was doing well and had held a 3 cap for a while. Then people went afk and we got 5 capped. Most just sat there and continued to afk. Reporting does nothing. Aggsauce does nothing.
Just doing AV and hopefully getting a sizeable jump to the next rank before waiting until the next AV weekend.
Well if you are like me and are R11 after 420k honor last week. We need 500k this week and then the next week (or AV weekend) we need 338k honor for R13.
Im 70% into R9. I had just came back about a month prior to Phase 5 releasing so I got some ground to cover.
I think they should reduce it to 100 so alliance play to win.

Out of the shadows he comes 
AV turn in gives 398 because they wanted to incentivize players to play the other battlegrounds.
But because they reverted the 2 token thing and players always going to go for whatever is the best honor per hour with least amount of effort AV is always going to be the go to method for 99% of pug players.
It’s more honor for ally than losing ab’s and less honor for horde win win.
Meh, I haven’t been in an intentional loss AB since Tuesday. In fact, yesterday my win-rate for AB was 50%, which for Alliance is shockingly good.
The biggest problem with AV is matches either last 5min or 1 hour with comparable rewards for both, so if one side doesn’t immediately win usually the smart thing to do is /afk out and wait 15min to try again.
It has incentivized people to double down on getting rolled.

Alliance have always lost ab’s and it’s never been the go to method for farming honor over AV not sure why this is some kind of shock to you.
So, rather than losing because people are bad it is somehow better to lose on purpose because they are bad to get quick tokens.
I can’t…
This isn’t a new concept rankers play for honor per hour whatever yields the most honor per hour is what will be done ?
You can’t force people to play a certain way then threaten them with bans best you can do is change how the battleground works to incentivize people wanting to play it.
I agree, but Aggsauce literally threatened people with bans to stop them from OBVIOUSLY throwing games. Now people cap a few nodes and then afk. You can report but if you’re the minority reporting then there’s nothing that can be done. Especially since Blizzard operates on auto-modding.
The evidence in that is that this behavior persists. The veiled threat during AB honor weekend garnered a response, but the actions that persist in each BG don’t garner any kind of response. It’s stuff like that that makes Activision Blizzard such a laughing stock when it comes to Quality Assurance.
You can’t get banned for running around and killing people in a battleground what will get you banned is typing things or falsely reporting people who are playing the game.
Because there’s always that 1 special person who wants to “play properly” so sitting at that 1 flag is still decent honor per hour.
Good the only people who deserve any kind of report or bans are people who are literally full blown afk and not doing anything or people botting.
If you threaten bans on people for wanting to lose even when tokens are reduced to 1 instead of 2 all that will happen is people will queue for AV because its better to play a 5-8 min av than sit in a AB for 30 mins “playing properly”.
You ain’t gonna win trying to force rankers to play how you want them to threats or bans or anything else only way to solve this is if you re-design how the battlegrounds function.
Until then people will do whatever yields the higher honor per hour simple as that.
