Is Honor Kill trading allowed in Classic?

Cross-faction collusion is allowed for Devilsaur farming.

Can we do it for honor kills as well?

I can’t imagine any reason why it would be allowed.

Is it allowed? No. Will it happen? Yes.

Although I would argue Account Sharing is more of a cheese then hk trading, unless you have a large enough group doing it with.

It’s going to happen, especially when BGs come out. Neither faction’s Team Helmet is going to want to play against each other because it’s going to take way too long compared to stomping bads so they’ll trade wins

Thats why they BG jump around. Have one person join BG, “Oh look another Premade, everyone decline the BG.” until “Oh look, a bunch of random people in a PuG, lets murk them.”

That’s how people will cheese the system to get HWL/GM.

I mean… You’re legitimately not wrong.

I would have said the same thing about cross-faction collusion in other areas of the game, but that is allowed.

Keep in mind, allowing it means less work for GMs.

It isn’t allowed BUT honor killing has diminishing returns. Ie each time you kill the same person you get less honor. People tried doing that in Vanilla.

Don’t the GM’s have anything better to do besides catch honor cheaters (funny because they’re not honorable)?

I don’t know, like catching and banning gold sellers? Hackers? Answering tickets? Managing in-game stuff like they’re supposed to?

These things get coordinated with large groups. For example, you get a 40 man raid on each faction. Then they group up and have one mage AoE everyone down. That player gets high warlord this week. Rinse and repeat for different players each week.

no. don’t be a bad coward. traders are pathetic

Wrong forums. These aren’t the retail forums.

Well hopefully the GMs will be on top of that.

Honestly getting 40 people to agree to do that for you in the first place is hard enough. Heck, there’s always a chance one of those 40 people will report you just for the lulz.

I"m sure they’ll allow it. Collusion is strictly against the rules back then for devilsaur farming, but they allow it. With that collusion allowed why would they NOT allow this?

I said at the beginning that Blizz would be banning exploiters colluding xfaction for devilsaur, and bots buying out the RC bag recipe 24/7.

I was wrong, I was wrong. Not going to fall for that again.

There’s no chance they’re going to be banning kill traders, or later on win traders- so remember the Blizzard mantra.

Exploit first, exploit often.

Did they stop the layering exploit when they had the chance before launch? No.
Did they remove any of the items or gold from the layer exploiting or the dungeon boss bug? No.
Have they done anything to the gold sellers advertising gold sales? No.

This will be free reign win trading just like pservers. It’s not the honor farming by killing players that will be traded. It’s the win/loss for the match.

I would think it would be pretty easy to set up a filter to flag any player who kills the same enemy player a disproportionate number of times.

It is already being organised on PVE realms because there is no other way to organise it… if only there was a way PVP could be objective based, instanced and thus balanced and accessed via a queue.

Seriously blizz wtf are you thinking, release WSG already.

BG’s just make the problem worse, not better.
