As the topic title suggests, what’s the current best way to farm honor as Horde? And if it is still AV then what are the tips and tricks for sucking the most honour out of the BG. Want to Push to Rank 10 then chill. Edit for new readers: As the topic has progressed it has become apparent that the top brackets are using underhanded queue manipulation tactics to overtake solo BG players.
takes 2 brain cells to know AV = max honor + rep for horde
unless you face a premade then you most likely lose
Yes but current person at top of Standings on my server achieved 160,000 honor in a single day, I’ve played AV all day on a day off and struggled to hit 80,000 So how the hell is that possible?
You need to be out in the world killing people while in queue as horde to get max honor
Warsong gulch premade abusing the exploit to skip queues maybe?
I guess it’s possible but that would mean WSG would have to give more honor than waiting on AV to pop!? only someone from the top brackets can answer this. It can’t be world pvp that makes up the 80k difference in honor from a solo AV spammer and somone in top brackets, only other option is that they sleep for 4 hours and spend every other waking minute spamming AV which I find hard to believe.
On ally side: winning wsg fast with a good premade and farming the enemy at graveyard can yield 17k hph. With hordes having queues i guess it is a bit less but with queue dodging they should be able to reach similar numbers.
Since there currently is an exploit that allows you to queue while in wsg i reckon this can be something they are using. Or they are just really good at farming inbetween queues in the open world, maybe they have prepared logistics where they have warlock alta everywhere rdy to summon while queing.
Yes do that. Spend all your queue time in 40-50 leveling zones killing everything that moves. Camp those FP’s, camp that boat. Every 48+ must die, repeatedly.
Because you learned nothing from the P2 debacle, nothing from the Flamelash debacle.
Kill the game!
Don’t roll on pvp servers if you’re not prepared for what that means

True, I wasn’t prepared for that absolute horror show, my bad, paid for it and quit the game. So all’s good now.
Just keep in mind never to whine about queue times and premades. Because… you know: “Don’t roll horde if you’re not prepard for what that means”.
Then why are you still on the forums
I’m alliance, but alright

He is just on more than you. All “day” yes. Not all day and night 
Got a few on my server horde side that pulls 160-190k per day aswell.
To make it they play araund ~19hs. But at times and if competition is high they can go upto 21h/day or do multiple consequtive allnighters.
And they do this every single day of the week.
A coupple might be account sharing to accomplish this, esspecially some of the newcommers can look abit suspect; rank 2-6 ppl (eg didnt really put in any effort to wpvp) suddenly jump into the grind with bg realease and start to pull 900k+ while being online 24/7.
But not the dedicated ranking nolifers, they are actually genuinely doing this ~140hs+ per week solo.
Its certainly not neccecary ( much easier would be to lowball it; then only push high ranks when needed; rather than gunning for bracket 1 every week.
Its mostly for the challange/ competition the first generation rankers do this. Push to get the ranks/ gear befoure anyone else, sort of like a “first” race to 60 or wboss kill or w/e.
Either premade spammer for 16 hours a day, account sharing or botting etc.
A lot of servers top brackets out there are like 1.2 million honor per week
1.2m probably isn’t enough for bracket 2 on a lot of servers
With current increased queue times 1.4m+ honor usually lands you in Bracket 1 on horde. I’ve just had a really good hour of PVP, two AVs which lasted 18 minutes and a horde win capping most bonuses in the BG and myself being in the right place at the right time to soak up a lot of the honor kills and I got 10k honour in that hour. So by that logic this guy would have to have had 16 hours of perfect scenario AVs to get to 160k in a day. No way did that happen, if you lose an AV badly to one or two premade alliance teams you are lucky to come out with 5-6k Honor in that hour. SO THESE TOP HORDE BRACKETS ARE UP TO SOMETHING ELSE! Probably the WSG exploit as stated earlier!
Note that the top dude yesterday hit 167762, 2nd place was 166459 and 3rd was 163030, that was Bracket 14 on Mograine as of this morning’s reset. Suspicious how their honor earnings are so close to each other too!!! You would think such massive numbers would result in a larger deviation at the top unless they are conspiring together.

Because I’m bored and the only thing keeping me from succumbing to my weakness and buying more game time, is to remind myself of the poor state of the game by creeping the forums.
Maybe you’re an ally, maybe you’re not. Fact remains that if you take part in turning the open world into a 24/7 corpserun simulator for the opposite faction you will kill your server and eventually the game.
