I really don’t get the whole “phase 2 is coming too early!” thing. Like at all. Elysium was fine with honor system on launch, still hit 60 in a fashionable time.
But really if you aren’t 60 by now you really didn’t care about hitting rank 14 or any rank for that matter. I hit 60 in /played of 8 days 14 hours playing about 3-4 hours a day (besides first 2 days where I played for 8-12 hours) and a lot of that is afking on Flight paths, afking waiting for groups for dungeons, afking to make food/eat food. Selling stuff in trade or leveling a profession.
I’m almost certain when I hit 60 the census was that majority of players were in their 40s so I did level in an above average time frame. Would’ve leveled faster with a class that can do leveling more efficiently too. It’s 15 year old content that has multiple guides on what to do and when to do it, no excuse to take so long to hit 60 unless you only can play 1 hour on saturdays because mom said video games are bad.
Not sure if links are permitted on the forums, but in case they are not - below is the post.
Thursday, November 14 – PVP Honor System and World Bosses
At 11:00 a.m. PST on Thursday, the update will occur for all realms in this region. The PvP Honor system will come online, and it will become possible for Azuregos and Kazzak to spawn.”
how about rlease battlegrounds now… lets be honest there are tons of people who just want to pvp. imo they are releasing phases to slow, once i can play all the battlegrounds i could care less about the release timeframe… until then this pve garbage is boring
phase 2 is just the honor system just wait in a month and a half the streamers will start to whine once again and we will get phase 3 stuff early.
for some reason they think that rank 10 pvp gear and exalted rewards will ruin the game or some garbage. forced slow progression for the 90% of people who came back to classic in order to finish naxx at 60 or relive level 60 pvp to appease the 10% of people who have already quit classic and gone back to retail.

I’m level 36. Sadly it’s taking me 4-5 hours a level at this level.

The fact of the matter is Blizzard could have been raking in the subscriptions until Christmas then they could have released PVP.
Now Blizzard are likely to see people give up the game because lower level players won’t be able to get anything done anymore without being ganked at every corner.
The honor system did not hurt players leveling 15 years ago, why would it now? I played the lesser faction when all this stuff was released and it’s honestly not that big of a deal. I think a bunch of retailers have raised a stink for no reason and it’s easy to tell who hasn’t been here from the start.
If it were my way we would be sitting on honor system with no dhk’s for months before BGs get launched.

Phase 3 shouldn’t take more than 2 months anyways.
Phase 2 is not coming too quick. most players are sitting at level 60 and login to do their raids then logout for the rest of the week. MC/Ony is done within 3 hours for alot of guilds. The main killer of players currently is the lack of reason to do anything. honor being added gives incentive for max level players to go kill each other giving reason for the PvP that is already there. It adds world bosses that can be fought over and camped so the other faction has troubles. This gives reason to not only login for their weekly raids then logout for the rest of the week.

You just opened the gate to Hades. All the Chads from the gym are coming, sweat towel in hand to tell you that if you play the game more than 30 minutes a day, you’re a no-life loser and you should be out there swooning dozens of women everyday while working 80 hour weeks.
Sheesh… we are in a patch 1.12 balancing and itemization environment, it makes no sense to artificially hold back content and keep us stuck with stuff that was trivialized by talent tree updates and gear reworks.
They chose 1.12 as the starting point because the game was most complete then, and then stuck us in the incompleted world, invalidating their original reasoning for 1.12.
It wouldn’t hurt anyone to just launch all of the content, and let players go through it at their own pace, rather than getting road blocked by an arbitrary release schedule.

Im of the view that if players are already bored with this version of wow it wont last long at all.
It hasnt even been 3 solid months.
I’m still not 60, and I would actually like to skip straight to Phase 3. Methinks your assessment is anecdotal.

No content outside of a 2 hour raid lol no reason to do dungeons unless you are in need of 1 prebis item or maybe plans/mats
What about all the quests? Did anyone who is level 60 complete them all yet?
I doubt it. Personally Im planning on doing quests in the end game in addition to AV without reinforcements. Since this version is considered as a museum piece (from what I’ve read on these forums) might as well enjoy it in detail. It wont ever change and no new content will be added.
