Hey everyone! Hope everyone has been enjoying SoD and fresh!
I feel like one of the biggest detractors and barrier to entry from WPvP is Dishonorable Kills. The legendary battles we remember fondly like Southshore vs. Tarren Mill or any attack on Orgrimmar or Stormwind (my favorite part of WoW) doesn’t often happen when there are such drastic stakes like losing rank for someone accidentally killing a civilian.
To let us relive those epic battles guilt free I’m asking you (the community) and Blizzard to repeal the Dishonorable Kill system, or to at least make it no longer reduce honor. I think the world would be significantly better with this change.

Agreed. I miss the days of invading Westfall and Duskwood only to end up facing a dozen lvl 60s who flew on over from Stormwind.

Then people will just do the thing DK’s were meant to discourage.

Here is why your argument doesn’t work: they removed Dishonorable Kills in TBC and the world didn’t end. The only thing that would change is we would have more fun on the PvP server.
people who want to DK just create alts. and its actually better for them because DK griefing is a thing, they will purposefully get people DKS. many horde players trying to get DMF buff when its in elwynn know this.

Exactly this. Today people are using Civilians to grief people in the open world by luring them into battles. That’s not fun or cool or clever. It’s stupid and it punishes fun.
Easy solution is to make all civilians non-attackable.

Instead, it could result in deaths and reduction of XP/levels. So if someone in a raid of level 60s kills a civilian, everyone in the raid would die and lose 1.5 levels of experience.
I think that would be a much better change. QoL sucks. Lack of QoL is what makes Classic fun. If you want to make changes, remove QoL, imo and make Classic actually fun.
This is a problem, please see the other thing I wrote about them being used for griefing.
Wpvp is already a massive degeneracy fest, and DKs are the one thing kind of keeping towns safe
The safety of towns should be the responsibility of the guards and the players.
Dishonorable kill griefing entire raid is dumb.
