Is it better honor for horde to turtle?

This. I’m trying to figure out how someone gets 10-20 fresh Solo kills in 30 minutes when everyone is packed in tight like sardines and most gank squads are 2-3 players.

AND helps their team turtle because of you’re getting that kind of honor I can guarantee the 30 people actually holding RHGY aren’t

like people keep saying, your maths are off. The 7-9min games often have the horde closer to 3k bonus honor than 2K and the average horde player is not getting nearly as much honor from killing things as you claim. DR is much to high for what your claiming, unless all the horde are in isolated small groups which would result in quick horde loss no matter who they are up against.

ya once bal and the lts are dead there isnt much honor other then the bunkers but there are alot of fresh alliance to farm for honor in a full turtle.

it will become the norm.

ITT: Alliance players telling horde players to throw games because its better for alliance.

Yes its better … Ally no matter if they are premade or not auto zerg to end to pull drek out and kill within 5-7 mins avg… they are all used to it … Now get a game where horde are all waiting for them at relief … they spiral out of control and don’t know what to do … by the end its the horde killing them over and over and over and over to van … yah it takes a hour but its worth it …everyone gets to suffer

35mins 6 to 10k honor that is lying, normally 1 hour + game max 5k honor even with win.

The people that “play” this game to farm points are the worst.

honor per hour at this point is purely an alliance Metric

because All Horde are getting 1.5 AVs at best per hour regardless of if there a fast loss to a premade or a turtle win vs a PuG.

HPH only has meaning for Alliance as you have to make the active choice “Premade or Solo AV” “Premade or Solo WSG” reason being Pugging AV or Premading WSG is virtually the same honor for the Horde (well less in WSG regardless).

It might be a bit better for honor, but a quick 7min game where we let alliance win, is TERRIBLE for rep

“turtle”
The overuse and wrong use of the term has stripped any meaning it may have had.

From my direct experience and honor by week, I’ve been getting far more during turtles.

I also play Heartseeker and farm kills in between matches, typically 10+ or so unique players, who I farm until DRs no long provide any honor. It’s actually a really good laugh ganking people in Chillwind after they land for all the honor they are worth as they try to run back to the FP to fly back out again lol

Turtles and WPvP have been working really well for me.

The alliance refuses to pvp. Their plan is to rush to Drek in the beginning, fail at it, then we slowly lose without a single tower. Everyone refuses to defend towers or attack them. Same thing every game.

I love how all you horde say you get more honor by turtling… and you go on to spout rep payouts that would indicate you captured all the objectives in that hour,and went on to kill Van.

I’m not saying that doesn’t ever happen… but normally the horde either win or lose by about the 3k honor mark, which is around 20 minutes.

If the horde continue for another half hour they end up at just over 4k total. I have never, ever seen a match where the horde turtle and walk out with anything close to 6k honor.

Thanks for making our premades easier with your turtle strat… because you are lucky to get 300 honor doing that against a premade.

Yesterday in AV 50, every single member of the horde turtled, and they didn’t capture a single objective in a 45 minute match.

If you think that this is the best way to make honor, more power to ya. It doesn’t make any difference to the alliance pvper’s, but the puggers and dad gamers aren’t going to queue for it.

I love how all of you alliance abuse your instant queues to queue dodge into your premades, exploit the unintended ability to solo pull a general, and keep arguing that nothing should be changed because you can’t win without overwhelming unfair advantages. It doesn’t matter that the current AV meta is complete garbage that cannot be fun for anyone. It’s a 5 minute zerg to solo pull a general and then off to the next game. Something needs to be done to fix this terrible meta, whether you like to think so or not.

Since we are just making up numbers why not 50k-1million honor in a 35 minute game?
