Just to get a rough idea where people are at. I have 22k Honor on 751 kills so not to shabby. I am hoping the blobs thin out some once people realize blobbing is garbage for honor.
I suspect there will be more horde than alliance pushing ranks.

I’ve been concentrating on farming for my robe, cape, and epic mount, rather than PvP. I’m tired of getting chased down by groups on epic mounts looking to 5v1.
What is blobbing
PvPing with massive raids, getting 1-2 honor per kill.
Racked up 22k in 2 days.
Running with smaller groups is the way to go for more honor and wayyy more satisfying when you wipe a bigger squad. Hope to see you Crimson Dawn boys out in there. Much love.
Planning on going for the DK high score. Eventually.
I’m not even gonna attempt to grind ranks until Phase 3. Grinding honor outside of BGs sounds miserable.
There’s pro’s and cons to every style
The best honour per hour is probably being a ranged DPS class, sticking with the Hillsbrad zerg, and then sniping honour with burst and AoEs (you’re not splitting honour with a bunch of healers/tanks/utiliy classes that do no damage that way). I’m resto and tab spamming moonfire gets me about 15-60 honour a kill that way. The downsides are that it’s boring, it’s self-serving, and it’s barely even something I would consider pvp.
Solo’ing is probably the second best honour per hour. It can be fun, but only certain specs can do it. You need to be able to burst AND get away, because full groups and zergs are always only a few seconds away. Also, trinkets will change things, because every skillless scrub rogue on the server won’t be able to automatically kill a decent amount of people in one stunlock, restealth combo.
3 to 5-man groups are the most fun, imo, and probably the best honour-per hour for most spec/classes. But you corpse run a lot to zergs.
Zergs are the least amount of fun, imo (some people obviously love it, and that’s completely valid) and trash honour per hour. The counter is that you don’t have to die constantly to 20-man raids.
8 to 10-man raids are a middle ground. But even then you are dying to zergs a decent amount and with 8+ people you are mostly steamrolling smaller groups, so it’s not a huge amount of fun.
3 to 5-man is what I like the best. But I have no MS warrior or SL warlock friends. If you’re an MS warrior or SL warlock and like to pvp in smaller groups, look me up! Me and my friends are only healers, for some reason.
Loving the destro life. I have a chance against everything but decent undead rogues
I’m at 33k I just want the rank ten paladin set more than anything. This patch has completely removed my ego, I will do anything for a kill esp those solo kills.
I’ve seen you a lot out there. You are doing a really good job, specially for running small group.
On first week you can get up to rank 1, 2 and 3. After that, you can only get eligible for one ranking up per week.
33K honor is a lot for 4 days. I bet that you have good chances to get rank 2 or 3 (if you didnt get any DK, otherwise you are screwed). Let us know this tuesday.
Well. im at 30k honor on 1k(exactly) HKs
Not shabby at all. Small groups>large groups
Yes it. is. I got 8.1K honor from 201 HKs yesterday. If you make the math, its an average of 40~ honor per kill. Not bad.
~38k so far. Small groups are where it’s at. Just gotta deal with the fact that you’ll sometimes die to mindless zerg groups.
Farming people coming off of flight points or AFK in unguarded towns seems to be the meta. I’m completely unimpressed, to be honest. But, that is vanilla. Hopefully phase 3 will distract some of these groups foaming at the mouth for that easy honor.
Yeah, it’s a bad look for PvP.
atleast you don’t have to deal with WoTF
That seems to fail vs DC. Fluke, or true?
Deathcoil is a horrify not a fear. Its the only outlier that WoTF can’t get around. Even then against a rogue if the Rogue plays right the warlock has no chance.
Also people get their trinkets on Tuesday so that’ll help classes that can’t deal with the strong CC some classes.
That’s what I thought. I tried pre-empting the spasm DC, but no go. Human perception and dwarf stoneform are my issues. So I feel your pain when having my stealth, bleeds, and poisons nullified…
