Arathi Basin Example - Revert these changes NOW

So, with the pre-patch coming out a lot sooner than anyone had actually imagined, you have also hit us with one of the worst nerfs possible at the worst times possible. People are struggling to get to 60 in that time frame, let alone geared enough to head into TBC.

This nerf needs to be reverted for the remainder of the classic-prepatch until TBC is ready to launch, THAT is what should be happening.

This is an example from an Arathi Basin win.

Honor: 220
Marks: 3
Time Estimated: 5 minutes, as an extremely generous win time-frame.

2 x One Handed Weapon Honor Required: 38250

38250 / 220 = 173.86 wins
Marks = 519

… 173 wins, at a generous 5 minutes per win = 14 hours.

Maths is a very very weak point for me, so correct me if I’m wrong.

They expect you to lose your wife, your job, and your children.

And get oneshot by Full T3 Rogue who embush for 4K damage.

Enjoy your gray screen for 250 hours.

Blizzard must think very little of the community to think someone wouldn’t eventually do the math. Well done.

Why Nerf honors this bad i need to win 100 game to get 1 item (one-hand axe) and i need to have 2 of them and we have 2 weeks to do that .in classic i was a raider enh shaman now i need to get my one hands when we raid rogues or warrs was prio always on one-hand axe or anythink… so i couldnt get them i understant it was like this before but before we had more times to do the honor gain not 2 weeks like now ok nerf it but no %90 u need to give us some room

Just did a AV we won after 20 min i got 225 honor, and need 20k ish for my ranged wep, so thats around 88 BGs and if they last like that one 20 mins, that will be 105 houers of fun BG time, and 266 marks i cant use, and thats with 100% win rate? how can they defend this nerf? im not going to do more PVP its not worth it ill rather wait til 70 and see if its any better.

You don’t need these items, you just want them but almost everyone would want them.

Actually you’re wrong.

To gear up via PVE/Raids will take you longer as it’s not for definite, time gated and requires other people.

PVP gear is a very good gear-catch up mechanism. Giving you what you need specifically without the hassle of losing it to someone else after X amount of hours.

And one more thing, why would they go ahead and remove the restrictions for the r14 gear, and then gate it behind some extremely long process where the majority cant get it anyway? No logic, No sense.

You will replace those items one week into TBC.

i need them agein hit if i use one-hand … and it can be stay like this than they can nerf honor req of the items

And yet people used T3 all the way to BT-Illidan?

Revert this useless change no one asked for Blizzard.

Naxx gear is better than rank14 gear.

“You will replace those items one week into TBC”

Exactly, that’s the thing. Why not let people get their gear quick and easy now, since the gear will be obsolete in 3 weeks? I really don’t get it.

Thats it.

i just want the weapons on my shaman for a smooth start in hellfire.

Nothing else.

Im not Raiding Naxx, and there is no guarantee that any weapons drop in bwl / aq40

So why not giving ppl the possibility to buy those weapons 13 days before tbc ?

And for those ppl who say " we have invest so much time to rank up " yeah sure. But u got the title and thats the important thing.
