LF tips on how to make mass honor at 60

by Glasson » Sun Jun 28, 2015 12:05 am

Greetings all, I am a nameless horde warrior who has been level 60 for a few weeks. I am looking for tips for a solo honor grinder to improve his trade. I apparently am not desirable for premades (probably due to my average at best gear), and have never been in one on this server.

I have been doing BGs for a few weeks, and my max for a week so far has been just over 100k honor with what I felt like was a lot of time and effort, yet I see folks with the upside of 300-400k per week. (Not including super high ranks who only run premades).

Im wondering what everyones trick is to getting so much honor. It seems like 50% of the games I play are against a premade, and we gain basically zero honor. Do people with 400k just run nothing but premades? Do people get this much honor from getting 5 capped and turning in marks all day? Am I just not no-lifing hard enough? Is there a certain time to queue for certain bgs? Feel free to be blunt about it, because I'm probably just missing something simple.

Any advice is helpful.

Pretty much, and not joining premades. No irl responsibilities + premade dodging = lots of honour

How does one dodge a premade?

So leader will make a raid group outside bg then the leader ques wsg. one person will enter to scout - if its pug game, rest will join and win fast and easy. If scout sees enemy premade leader will que for AB and scout will join that, then wait a bit before leader ques wsg again. repeat until get pug game.

makes battlegrounds really shitty for anyone not in premade.

I made about 100k honor over the course of today and yesterday doing premade games for few hours each day.

That's why I think disabling multi queue will avoid this dodging system and will be better for PvP in general but 90% of entire population doesn't want it

Unfortunately there's nothing you can do about it. These guys will be playing for 12+ hours a day, so you'll be facing them quite often, at any time of the day.

i guess you missed the part where op told he is from the horde, your dodge tactics only works for alliance with instant queues.

As a horde you can basicly do the same thing, but with expendable scouts.

i would suggest you to try to que at early mornings, or very late nights, server time ofc! and yeah the neets who just literally play 7times a week 12-15 hours each day idd gain tons of honor, but i honestly dont think anyone could enjoy that, so good for them! hopefully the neets will burn out on vanilla very soon, and hopefully leave, giving us some decent pug vs pug games

my personal forecast is that you wont be seeing decent pug v pug games for another 2-3 months until the largest pvp crazy has died out.
