AV Weekend Honor not doubled/bugged?

WoW Classic Cataclysm Classic Discussion
1

So i pvped all week, and wrote down something, monday - thursday these are the honor points per destruction i was getting:

Tower/bunker destroyed: 84 Honor each
Balinda/Galv: 84 Honor each
Vann/Drek: 84 Honor each.

I just did another AV which should now be double right since its AV weekend now? or does double honor only apply to kills/HK’s?

Either way the above numbers were the same so that hasnt doubled, nor was the amount of honor i got from a win: yesterday i got about 500 honor for a win, today i got 550 honor.

is this a bug or is this working as intended?

EDIT: found this on WoW wiki: During a holiday, emissaries from the featured battleground are found in the major cities, and honor & faction rewards for performing objectives in that battleground are increased.

So this should mean the tower and nps kills should be 168 honor right?

Yup, the numbers arent correct - but blizzard literally dont care.

Your quote says nothing about double honor from towers/hks… bonus honor from av is calculated when the game ends.

Was the same problem with AB weekend.
That new 100% honor buff probably overwrites the weekend bonus.
Blizz doesnt care about such things, no $$$ gain from something like that.

Right, ok so maybe not double then but its still wrong since it state: honor & faction rewards for performing objectives in that battleground are increased.

But at the moment its still the same as yesterday for a tower or npc kill.

7

They are increased, you just get the bonus when the game ends based upon how many objectives that are taken down during the game. You dont get it right away.

8

It’s still incorrect.

Yeah idk, havent checked that thorough. But I did notice an increase in honor atleast.

from my av games yesterday on horde side i got 3,6k honor over a 3 HOUR duration (including 1 missed que)
average que time was 20 minutes instead of the usual 30+ for horde (assuming the weekendbonus should have already been active sind the npcs were standing around everywhere?)
winrate was about close to 50/50 maybe 60/40
with most games being played properly with bunkers/balinda and some defense for extra honor from kills and wins giving roughly 500honor, sometimes 900 honor on longer games with a lot of kills

very efficient honorfarming indeed, makes the que button feel like a device to drain your soul

I’ll link this source again :

It is important to note the following: one kill= 20.9 honor at level 70 (it should be 14 at level 60)

Normal / Holiday
Tower Destruction 3 Kill(s) / 3 Kill(s)
Enemy NPC Kill 0 Kill(s) / 0 Kill(s)
Captain Kill 3 Kill(s) / 3 Kill(s)
General Kill 4 Kill(s) / 4 Kill(s)
Map Complete 0 Kill(s) / 4 Kill(s)
Per owned Graveyard 0 Kill(s) / 0 Kill(s)
Live Captain 2 Kill(s) / 2 Kill(s)
Per Undestroyed Tower 2 Kill(s) / 2 Kill(s)
Per Owned Mine 0 Kill(s) / 0 Kill(s)

The only bonus you get from AV weekend is the “Map complete” honor bonus which is 20x4=80 then x2 = 160.
It’s actually working as intented. At least in my case.

You forgot second part:

Bonus objective Normal Holiday
Tower Destruction 12 Honor point 18 Honor point
Enemy NPC Kill 5 Honor point 5 Honor point
Captain Kill 125 Honor point 185 Honor point
General Kill 350 Honor point 525 Honor point
Map complete 0 Honor point 0 Honor point
Per owned Graveyard 12 Honor point 18 Honor point
Live Captain 125 Honor point 175 Honor point
Per undestroyed Tower 12 Honor point 18 Honor point
Per Owned Mine 24 Honor point 36 Honor point

While it is for lvl 70 but to put it simply it should be extra 50% across the board.

This part is about reputation gain. Not honor.
