With today’s honor nerf to EOTS flag caps, the meta must find a new way. And that way goes way back to Phase 2 during the AV ranking meta. Due to high queues, horde players were forced to world pvp for additional honor.
Now since TBC Classic is still in beta phase, and neutral city guards don’t attack when engaging in PvP (Cenarion Refuge, Area 52), endlessly ganking alliance in these cities between queues has become the meta.
Enjoy!
Nah dog the new horde meta is to complain on the forums
reposting this here since all the spam is drowning out actual problems that still exist:
just played a game of EotS with the hotfix:
alliance got 48 bonus honor with 9 flag captures and 2000 points (win).
horde got 63 bonus honor with 3 flag captures and 962 points (lose).
blizzard deployed a hotfix that wasn’t properly tested and should be reverted.
Area 52 already has bodies/skeletons everywhere. 70s ganking in Hellfire for easy pickings honor.
Imagine rolling on a PvP server that isn’t 99:1 in your faction’s favor.
That being said, I did get ganked by a Horde rogue when I was low health the other day.
I was so surprised to see him I logged onto one of my Horde toons and thanked him for his bravery.
Guards dont attack?? Wtf you on about they beat my squishy as.s to a pulp when i pvp near them??
Im bout to reroll im on skeram 99:1.Where should I go for endless wpvp?
PvE realm. /shrug
Good bait thread, should use more horde crying in your post though since they are well known to cry when anything goes wrong
Ganking alliance is fun now, tons of honor too instead of BGs
Next Hotfix the guards will attack to stop griefing so if you are enjoying it then it won’t last.
I heard that if you actually PvP in BGs, you get honor.

I got a feeling mid to late phase one things will change. Horde will have full arena gear and have no need for bgs except to cure boredom and off spec gear. While waiting in ques they will gank and run rampant.
Got a feeling we will see a mixture of “ques still too long” from horde. While on alliance “I can’t move without being ganked”
I’m a carebear so I’m not worried. I get to still go Into the open world.
LOL, do you even have alliance on Herod? xD You all went to play Horde knowing that there will be more of you and there will be huge queues for the horde. Is it Blizzard’s fault?
There are bigger fish to fry
I know times have changed, but a paladin saying that after the pally pull meta is hilarious, especially male human paladin.
They’re already long, ganking alliance noobs is the best honor per hour atm, get used to it.
OP at least put in some effort with the trolling, this is just pure laziness and low effort bro.
I never took part in that nonsense. In fact, I was pretty vocal here on the forums calling that cheating, which it was.
