Pre-Patch Honor (2.0.1 vs 2.3.0)

[Arondelor-zuluhed]

It is extremely disingenuous to sit here and say that the values for the honorable kills are correct when there are hundreds of hours of video available for the content we are currently playing. Attached are some screenshots from the beginning of TBC and pre-patch TBC, that I found in the time it took to get a battleground to start.

As you can see they are still getting what would be considered 1.8+ honor calculations for the honorable kills. Which is how everyone sitting around remembering being gated by marks isn’t crazy.

To be clear the bonus honor was incorrect.

But the honorable kills being cut by the same rate as the bonus honor is nowhere near the pre-patch experience. You’ve taken something that would be casual weekend play, and turned it into 24 hour marathons of queuing BGs to get a single piece of gear.

Please fix this.

Here’s a thread I made. If you care about the facts regarding this situation, please take a look:

Tremendous amounts of information regarding pre-patch honor

Disclaimer: I don’t care if they increase the honor further. They could increase it 100x for all I care. That said, facts are inside. Adrianne Rich — “Every journey into the past is complicated by delusions, false memories, false namings of real events.” [image] This also explains why the video that Zinqf linked showed a solo Grand Marshal kill giving 40 honor. It was likely a display issue. Bonus image of someone complaining about only getting 8,000 hon…

Nobody cares about your thread. TBC authenticty is out the window.

There were no lv 58 boosts in vanilla TBC.
Your argument is invalid.
Prepatch was 42 days in 2006, its only 13 Today.

[Arondelor-zuluhed]

This just proves my point, you are using videos from the 2.3.0 patch which are in december of 2006 to illustrate these really low numbers.

[Delimicus-heartseeker]

Uhhh, December 2006 is when the original TBC pre-patch launched.

[Shuguen-dalaran]

TBC authenticty is out the window.

Considering authenticity of subject matter and authenticity of experience are to completely difference things.

There were no lv 58 boosts in vanilla TBC.

You played classic with the wrong talent progression through patches, wrong dungeon progression through patches, the wrong itemization, the models were updated, the mounts were updated. You didn’t even remotely get the same experience from Vanilla to TBC.

So it’s perfectly ok to be unfaithful to Classic as long if you get the stuff you want?

The only thing invalid here is your terribly constructed argument.

Retail is for you. Classic is not retail. 2006 prepatch was 42 days, this is 13 days. Again your argument loses.

[Arondelor-zuluhed]

The second week of the patch, everyone had a week of play time on week one of the patch. None of this close the door behind us while we play at 4am and take all the loot home with us.

[Dreamsphere-westfall]

Those numbers are not accurate, neither is this thread.

[Shuguen-dalaran]

O I see, you’re just slow. That explains it.

@Shawtyqt-faerlina

Retail is for you. Classic is not retail.

That’s correct, Classic is not retail. If you actually played Classic instead of boosting a character and demanding a full set of epic PvP gear to be deposited into your bags, you’d realize that getting gear in Classic takes time.

You think this is my main? Ah you must take the short bus to school
