Albeit, honor grinding was not ENTIRELY skill based but good God it required more skill than whoever can AFK in AV the longest for honor… I think we were all expecting and HOPING that the most efficient way to get honor was to have a coordinated team in WSG.
This AV zerg fest is completely killing the spirit of competition and undoing everyone who spent a lot of time working hard and trying to farm honor in the most effective/efficient way possible in the past 4 weeks.
Blizzard please read see that the community is unhappy with this! Look at all these posts and streamers QQing!!! Please FIX IT!
It has already gone on too long. There is no fixing it without taking away the honor already grinded. It’s over dude. The war for Classic WoW was lost. Just write posts to laugh at what the winners won. Listen, only those who have already exploited 1.12 AV for its rep now want AV honor gain radically reduced. It advantages them. You get it? You just become part of the problem crowd with this post. Just make fun of 'em dude. They grinded something they hated 100 times to stay ahead. Just laugh at 'em.
As a former rank 14, it was never fully “skill based”, obviously there was also a heavy time commitment too that you simply can’t avoid… but it did at least involve some amount skill, teamwork, actually playing the game and actual PvPing. Getting rank14 in Classic will require none of that, and whatever ‘prestige’ the title had in Vanilla will never exist in Classic unless AV is changed.
It’s not over. 2 days of honor is nothing in the grand scheme of the honor grind. It WILL be over if AV honor is never nerfed though.
Honor gains are all relative so as long as they change it on Tuesday it doesn’t matter how much people got the previous week. Everyone will be adjusted to the new normal.
I also think they will definitely change it somehow, because if they don’t then no one is ever going to queue up for anything other than AV all the time. Kinda boring.
You can fix this by playing defense in AV. This then requires the Alliance to actually PVP, which then turns into a good game until the alliance just quit and let you win. LOL!
It’s also incredibly boring to watch. I used to enjoy watching some streams while eating lunch or having a slow work day but damn I cannot watch people zerg PvE their way to AV wins and the sad, bored looks on their faces as they do it is bad as well. And some of these people are doing it for R14 so it’s not like this behavior is going away once people reach Exalted.
Guys! He fixed it! Forget the fact that what you do in your games has no effect on what everyone else in your server does, just grief yourself and the problem magically goes away! Genius!
I was given insufficient RP week one. They never fixed. It resets on Tuesday, though, right? np
I was given insufficient RP week three. They never fixed. I am down almost two full ranks at this point. it resets on Tuesday. It’s all relative right? np
I am not participating in a slavish grind for honor with a triumphant PvE mount race in this evil incarnation of AV. Now I will lose RP by not playing along. It resets on Tuesday. It is all relative. (Inconsistent with the standard inference btw). I guess, because you said it, this should be noooo problem. k
