You can get almost 2 ranks in 1 week, though. I went from very low rank 5 to very high rank 6 in 1 week.

Only for the lower ranks.
Weekly 20% RP decay enters chat.
Its not a bug though. Its how the honor system works. At r9 on my server if you want to move upwards youâre looking at around 200k honor at bare minimum. Any less and youâll stall or lose rank.
I heard horde bracket 14 caps are in the millions, can anyone confirm? Alliance comments on a horde rank outputs means nothing. They have around 4 times as many accounts in their brackets. But if you expect to get r10 or above you better get in some premades AB/WSG and get out of AV.
Depends on the server, but I think most top end servers Horde caps are 700k-900k. With our queues its very difficult to hit 1m
Itâs all relative matters even more in vanilla pvp rankings.
they were right though. it is know HonorSpy bug. you honor didnât go anywhere.

I am working as declared essential and I have limited time these days, so I got screwed twice⌠More work and more competition, I guess I will pickup after all this is over and hope not to loose too much rank, i dropped to 8 this week, from rank 9 50% to 8 95%âŚ
Itâs bigger than the whole country, friend 
Much, much biggerâŚ
Hence why you want to collude participation levels on smaller, tight knit servers and then transfer back to high popâŚdoh!!!
Someone was telling the forums how Blizzard doesnât know their own game??
Lol. Heck y they do.
I feel you, itâs a badly designed system run by poorly managed people that are the most ignorant in the gaming market. It was bad then, it is bad now, and it will be bad in the future.
I just waited for an AV on horde forever only to join a battle that was 1 min from completing. Why does this even happen, oh yeah right, Blizzard. I truly believe Blizzard are employed by overseas governments to cause mental illness.

How do people still not understand how ranking works? Lul
Ok, genius, explain it to me here, go.
The amount of RP (ranking points) you acquire in a week is determined where you fall in the percentile for all players of your faction that have gotten at least 15 honor kills that week.
In other words, itâs possible to be the Standing 1 player in a week by grinding 100k honor on one server, and be Standing 100 on another with the same amount of honor.
How much you rank (or derank) is determined by
- How much honor you grind
- How much honor other people grind
- Total population of players of your faction that have gotten at least 15 HKs that week.
In order to hit rank 10, your character needs to have 40,000 RP. Depending on the percentile of where your character falls that week, you earn a certain amount of RP. For example, Bracket 14 (the top bracket) is only obtained by 0.3% of active PvPers that week of your faction. Those players will earn anywhere between 12,000-13,000 RP that week. Bracket 13 (0.8%) earn 11,000-12,000. Etc. etc. A major hurdle of the Honor System is the 20% decay all players get at the start of a new honor week to their total RP. Itâs because of this decay that players that hit Rank 14 are required to get bracket 14 for 3 straight weeks just to go from 13->14
Great formula, now where can I find all the stats from my particular server so i know how much I have to earn min. to keep my rank? There is none, and I donât have time to solve their mathematical maze, they should have added a module to give you stats = Whatever you explained does not solve my or anyone else problem.
The best thing you can use to my knowledge is Honor Spy. it should give you a projected rank for the next week depending on your honor and other playersâ honor. It gets more accurate as the week progresses, but nothing is 100% accurate.
