Honor Gear Discounts Incoming

I think it was intended to launch with no limit.

Great. Go sit in the corner with your thoughts please.

The only thing you’ve proven is male blood elves with meme names are either egotistical, or brain dead and you somehow have been inflicted with both of those cases.

Truly a specimen

I think it was intended to launch with no limit.

I believe they did not anticipate people winning/losing battles as quickly as possible to maximize gains.

This led to them changing it.

They didn’t anticipate people… exploiting? Go figure.

Winning or losing quickly is not exploiting.

I do believe the amount of honor gained was far too high.

But nothing anyone did was exploiting.

I think the honor gear cost decrease is good for the game to help those who were not 80 and able to do WG catch up.

Wish you just took the cheaters gear away instead of making it easier. It should be a grind at least and not welfare blues.

Good call, and a safe business move. Well done.

I was really hoping this was about all the AV botting happening right now which has made AV unplayable.

Throwing a game is against the EULA. It’s one of the few things that’s actually listed.

This better for you?

You should take your meds before coming on the forums maybe you could think more clearly.

Against Eula… you bet. Exploiting? no.

It’s listed under the section about exploits and cheating.

1. make full use of and derive benefit from (a resource).

i appreciate this, but put it in asap, arena has started

Wanted to chime in and call this out as something we have been discussing and agree with. After talking with some folks involved in original Wrath itemization in 2008, it was an acknowledged issue during Tier 7/Season 5 that there was a dearth of good relics available. As a result, we are working on plans to very soon add the Savage and Hateful Gladiator’s Relics, Wands, Thrown Weapons, and Hunter Offhand one-handed weapons to the Savage and Hateful gear vendors.

These items existed in the data in 2008, but were never available to players in-game. Adding the lower power versions of these items patches a notable gap in itemization this season/tier which we think works out quite nicely. Our thinking right now is that Savage and Hateful items in these slots will require a nominal amount of Arena Points as well as Honor. The Savage items will have no rating requirements, and the Hateful items will have a rating requirement of 1200. The Deadly Gladiator’s versions of these items will see no changes and will still require a rating of 1900.

We’ll update everyone on the final costs of these items very soon once we have the hotfix prepped.

Thanks for the feedback around this! :slight_smile:

I am curious if this honour discount is only for one week or is it permanent?
