No they don’t. Clearly you are a new player if you think that.
You clearly didn’t read ANYTHING I said, sad.
I did. You have zero idea of how honor used to function and you want to restrict rewards to a few transmog sets. Clearly you’re just trying to eliminate bgs altogether by eliminating all reason to participate.
The “casuals should get no rewards whatever and should be playing the game for love of wow and respect for its perfect design only” hasn’t worked yet, Ion. No doubt it will turn around in the next expansion if you do nothing different.

You are about as bright as a 2 watt bulb. I’m going to toss you on mute now, stupid.
I agree and it’s amazing how narrow minded some people are in this… casual players make the most of any player base that a game will have… right now wow has an issue maintaining their player base…. More content that’s pick/up and play brings more players into the spectrum that may eventually make time to start doing rated content and it’s a win for everyone…
Wow can only get better if it has an outlet were there is no progression in it, but has a daily reward attached to it (xp for folks leveling, small bit of conquest and honor) and everyone is on a level playing field and I guarantee you that mode will have full activity.
I would also like to see gear like in wod were there is the blue honor set, the purple elite set that’s not far off in power scaling and the mythic set being cosmetic only for folks who enjoy the comp of arenas.

Oh I see. You are intentionally misrepresenting how it used to work. Let me know when my honor capped 50 can buy cata reagents and gear to sell again. Oh, that’s right. NEVER. You want rewards to be entirely trivialized so casuals will play for no reward, because they deserve none in your eyes.
That stack of 1000 marks of honor is pretty useless.
rip to me.
I can understand and agree with that. I do think the pvp system needs an overhaul in 10.0 as its in need of so much that I don’t see a major patch changing it.

If SL wasn’t the way SL was i’d probably have a better opinion of 3s 
i don’t think we’re realistically going to play a single game on equal gear footing for the rest of this season tbh
Hopefully honor buffs stay in place for next season but part of me doubts it
I mean you’re definitely right. It does remind me of getting to that 2200 hill in Cata. You were at a disadvantage because t2 weps hit harder but at the same time it was never this much of a gap.
One honor set
One conquest set
Unranked weapons at normal raid difficulty
T1 at heroic
T2 at mythic
Elite t3 at final boss mythic level.
Gives progression and better gear for people that push but it’s not at such an extreme difference where it’s every slot being higher.

Good afternoon a friendly reminder that 1400 CR is 13 ilev below BiS (duelist/2100) gear
Reminder that 0 cr conquest gear used to be the same ilvl as 2700 cr conquest gear 
The more I think about it the whole system should just be scrapped and have neither honor gear or conquest gear, just have a blank white item set and as soon as you hit a rating bracket instantly upgrades entire set to that bracket’s ilvl
No more 1/7 213 ilvl blue gear at 1950 rating tier

Yeah, but they got it slower. The forums were also mayhem then over people not liking people without honor/conquest gear being on their team, enemy team being more geared, etc.
Yeah, I’m still not sure what they were thinking with honor gear. It’s just such a grind.
“Fix unrated pvp content”
“Do rated pvp!”
No. Unrated pvp problems need unrated pvp solutions. Some people don’t like arena and dont want to do arena. You should not be completely hamstrung as a player for not grinding out a bunch of content you don’t want to do.
Same goes for unwanted pve grinds to get legendaries / renown / conduits / sockets. People should get the gear to do the content they WANT to do, not slog through unwanted content to get to it.

Somehow I don’t think that the solution to unrated bgs issues is for everyone to quit the game who wants to do unrated bgs but doesn’t like arena. Well, not a good solution, but devs are working hard to make this happen.

its a MMO dude , its not League of Legends where i can start a game when i want and have fun
Would a drastic increase to rewards and an ilvl organizing mechanism fix unrated PvP?
Uh, I think letting people achieve a reasonable power level in a more timely fashion would do the most good. Example being like 5k for a full set of 233 gear.

It was an MMO during wod when it took a day or two to get a full set of honor gear that was almost as good as conquest gear.
lol.
Except for one char who I made a goal to 220 all slots for mog…I get a nice ilevel 210 to 218 ish and call them done. usually 216 them with the jewerlry at 220. and…done.
consider them up to date in the hopes of a better time in 10.0. or to spam prepatch welfare gear we get usually.
Pvp has issues, yes. to me its better than Borethia. at some point I even stopped finding the dude to unlock korthia upgrades really. did it like 8 times…and I said no after. that should have been in the skip really.
Queueing into ranked OR unranked should give you full pvp gear. They need to change the whole reward structure, the current iteration isn’t cutting it. For example, quick idea:
1000 rating: xmog weapon enchant(weak glow color)
1500 rating: xmog weapon enchant(weak glow color) + wrist,belt,cloak elite xmog
1800 rating: xmog weapon enchant(normal glow different color) + chest, legs, boots elite xmog
2000 rating: xmog weapon enchant(bright glow different color) + helm, chest, shoulders elite xmog
2200 rating: xmog weapon enchant(bright glow different color) + mount, title, weapon elite xmog
2400 rating: ability to go outside and touch grass + maybe get a relationship
