Is High Warlord/Grand Marshal easier to get now?

Throwinarrows would be more like it

They tried that already and if you were around when they did I think you’ll remember it didn’t go too well.

I do remember that. I didn’t like it either.

That was with using real names when people reacted that way though. RealID has moved away from that now.

I was half joking but there are a lot of mostly trolls who swap avatars for the forums just to get a rise out of people. That’s not really a good thing.

Just have to run AV for 30 hours a week for 8 weeks BAM Rank 14

Yeah that was Cata as I remember it.,

AB is the best way to get to R14. And this thread was about how best to get to R14 and if it is less grindy now.

WSG is a terrible choice for it. If one or both of the FCs decide to hop behind the map, then you can get a turtle that will not end and you end up getting the same kills over and over again, that gives you DRs and no honour. Yet you say you PvP lvl 60 Classic? You dont.

And in original Vanilla, bgs were cross realm within your battlegroup. Some were so bad that AVs wouldnt even pop.

Unless you can get a premade its AV grinding and its the most boring thing ever 5 hours and 40k honor later i think im just gonna just not even bother past R9

The real big brain was not even finishing leveling, until we hear from Blizzcon about when Fresh (or whatever other ideas blizz has for classic)… Gotta say, if Blizzcon disapoints, I’ll probably be on turtle within a day after it.

I mean if this is the system a plus might get I really hope they don’t allow the purchase of rank 12-14 stuff until after aq40 opening event drops while they might have to work out new content. Because if they do we might have to spend 8 weeks in av, 8 weeks of total degeneracy, so much av that the players will be indistinguishable from bots.

But I am looking forward to it, as there have been some great ideas for plus.

Who cares how it feels. You could lower the cap to a half rank after 10 or 12. You could even make it like an experience or reputation bar. So it will be better for your FEELings. Blizzard showed you how much they care for your game why do defend them so much?

Too late.

The rank change is what it is.

Either rank up if you want to/can or don’t

It’s not too late. Blizzard just said they are listening to us. Now is the time to advocate for change.

Pre-change, on low pop servers with well-managed brackets we were getting rank 14 with only ~200k honor for the week. So technically it was easier to farm rank 14 so long as there was not a bracket breaker.

High pop servers like whitemane were pretty much nothing but bracket breakers and so they routinely had 1mill+ caps.

The current system splits the difference and takes out the variability.

500k is still a very sizable chunk of honor to grind in 1 week, but it is not a moving target, and it’s very attainable if you just play battlegrounds each day.
