PVP Rank/Progress not updating/calculating Classic Era

WoW Classic WoW Classic Bug Report
1

I have an issue, my account does not update on any character after reset.

This has happened the 2 last times honor was actually reset and calculated for everyone else. (NOT on the reset where the new system was being implemented and did not count).

On Tuesday, August the 15th:

Ganklust - 60 - Horde - Faerlina - Rank 10.5 pre-reset (about 42,500 rating in old system that was still in effect)
I was standing 6 on the server which was bracket 3, shouldve been gaining 10,000 rating.
Even with decay I should hit rank 12 (50,000 rating points), 11 at the bare minimum (45,000 rating points.
Ganklust should have been sitting pretty with 50,000 rating (Rank 12) after the reset on August 15.

Gankshawk- 60 - Horde - Faerlina - Rank 9.33 pre-reset (about 36,300 rating in old system that was still in effect)
I was standing 10 which was bracket 4, gaining 9,000 rating.
Even with decay I should hit rank 10 at the bare minimum (40,000 rating).
Gankshawk shouldve been sitting pretty with 42,800 rating or so (Rank 10) after the reset on August 15.

Rank was not updated during the August 22nd reset, everyone knows and read this long in advance. I didnt even pvp this week because it would count for nothing. DISCLOSURE: I transferred immidietly once servers came back up on tuesday the 22nd, before pvping at all, from faerlina to whitemane, on Ganklust. Then I earned 110k honor before the next reset on the 29th.

On Tuesday, August the 29th:

Ganklust - 60 - Horde - Whitemane - Rank 10.0 pre-reset (I lost all progress due to transfer policy going from 10.5 to 10.0)
I earned 110k honor per blizz ui. Did not move a millimeter into rank 10. Still Rank 10.0.

Gankshawk- 60 - Horde - Faerlina - Rank 9
I earned 10k honor per blizz ui. Did not move a millimeter into rank 9. Still Rank 9.0.

I have spoken to multiple users in game who had anywhere from 50k up to the max counted for ranking 500k. Their ranks were anywhere from 9.5 up to 11.5 before the reset on August 29th. Every single one of them increased in rank or progressed towards the next rank within their rank. None stayed the same exact rank progress wise. IE if someone was rank 10.5 they were not 10.5 after reset, they increased, even with 50k honor.

I have am thoroughly frustrated at all those hours wasted and counting for nothing. I have reported a bug, made ingame tickets. This is the last attempt of mine before /deleting WoW.

Thank you for your time if given.

I have not transferred, my Rank 9 character did 130k ish… made zero progress.
my Rank 7 character did 73k and also zero progress.

Possibilities:

  1. We just need to pump more honor…
  2. System is broken for some.

My shaman did not transfer and both before and after my rogue transferred, the shaman received no progress. I have spoken with people the same rank as both of my characters.

A rank 10.2 gained 200k honor, went to 10.8 last update.
A rank 10.7 gained 50k honor, became rank 11.05
My rogue is rank 10.0 gained 110k honor and is still rank 10.0.

A rank 9.4 gained 35k honor and became rank 10.1.
My rank 9.0 shaman gained 10k honor, still 9.0.

This week im not even trying as there is no point to logging in, already have bis gear on main. Ill bump this after reset with new numbers. I suggest you do the same.

Did ~130K on my R9 gained Zero.
Did ~73K on my R7 gained Zero.

if what you said is true then something is 100% broken

Perhaps ranks are not being applied correctly at all?

Just logged in today. only did 50k honor last week before todays reset, cause why try at all. was rank 10.0 before reset still rank 10.0 after reset

my sub is up in 8 days, probably not gonna renew at this point. have had a truly sad customer experience regarding this matter. makes sense from the worldview that this company has, the individual doesnt seem to matter whatsoever.

I suspected this would be the reaction to the system as it exists now… If blizzard were wise, they would correct this design flaw.

What are your character names and servers? are they still the same ranks as you posted before? did you farm any honor for todays reset?

Same, on WM cluster… I used the honor calc to figure out the idiotic break evens to minimal the gains… I went from 0% R9 to 0% R10 on 258K

Here is the calculator…

Note if the “Rating” part = Zero then you gain literally nothing for your work… its STUPID AF.

Note if you are 99% R8 instead of 0% R9 with the same honor you gain more rank, basically 50% more.

This can be achieved by getting a Dishonorable kill, each DK is minus 5%, so you can go to like 95% Rank 8 from formerly Rank9 0%.

I did not do this but I have some friends who did.

What about the red bar indicator on the characters honor tab? Does it move at all? I did extensive pvp this week and the bar did not move in the slightest.

Neither did mine. Something is seriously wrong.

Thanks for your response. I tried sending a ticket but I got an automated response that was of no use. I responded that “I still need help” but I’m not optimistic.
