I made a calculation for honor farming, here we go!

I need 30 win in a Eye Of The Storm to get 1 piece of gear, as average.

Suppose I won all my Battlegrounds.

Same faction BG :

Queue time : 1mn
Game time average : 15mn
Result time : 30 * (1mn + 15mn) = 480mn per piece of gear = 8 hours of /played

Non-Same faction BG :

Queue time : 30mn
Game time average : 15mn
Result time : 30 * (30mn + 15mn) = 1350mn per piece of gear = 22.5 hours of /played

This is insanity with 10 to 17 pieces of gear to farm (depends on your class/spec).

How can human are supposed to do that with post pandemic COVID-19 lockdown ? Can you tell us Blizzard ? I need to spend 2 weeks of /played to get full PvP gear Season 1 on 1 character ? L m a o. Look at theses numbers how ridiculous is it.

And I don’t take account the fact that you don’t win all Battleground.

2x or 2.5x the amount of honor at least, because at this point I seriously think of never doing any single PvP in this game again and I doubt I’m alone.

Do you know lot of PvP’ers want to play multiple-class ? How are we supposed to do with your scuffed systems ? I can reroll Alliance for instant queue to, but they suffer from same issue and I don’t think they auto-win all Battleground lol, they suffer like us with this stupid amount of honor to farm.

Not worth it at all.

Do your heroics, level up professions with strong items, raid Karazhan, and aim for the trinket and epic bg items only.

I can give you a real world example.

I work 2 days 2 nights 12 hour shifts.

I get 3 and a half days to really grind heavily on WoW (if im not doing any RL stuff)

My game time so far as 70 is 6 days 20 hours 22 minutes

I have obtained (I got Helm and shoulders during the test period)

Helm
Shoulders
Cloak
Chest
Bracers
PVP Trinket (Cheap)

I’m currently sitting on 5357 Honor
with the following tokens
Wsg: 8
AV: 31
EotS: 17
AB: 0

I can honestly say I have not been out of org since hitting 70 and have been queuing non stop when online, I had around 2-3 hours worth of arena just to get cap for some points weekly till I’m better geared and can compete a little.

I should mention the only reason I do BG is because I enjoy it, I could however be more productive between games and try gank in open world, however this will just feed the fire of alliance being upset about that (thinking about it I had level 70 alliance corpse camping me for hours while leveling).

Yeah I know, not all items are good, of course. But you know the point, as healer for example, you aim for 95% of them. We aren’t all playing Warrior / Rogue / Hunter BM :slight_smile: .

you think you do
