Speaking of pvp and battlegrounds.. Does anyone else have honor farmers on their servers that are being played by multiple people?
Its a pain for everyone trying to rank when you have 1 or 2 players who are being played 24/7 by different people grinding honor.

many Grand Marshals / High Warlords do that. it's more common to have mulitple people play that char than 1 person doing it themselves. It's a long f'n grind, this patch fixes some of that grind.

cross realy BGs just make it easier to get honor in order to get standing 1, however it makes it easier for everyone

I dont see how faster queues are going to make it 'easier' to get standing 1. Its not like you are the only one getting these fast queues, the entire population will have the same queue times and earn basically the same honor ratio as before.

The only thing that will make it easier to make ranks is if they indeed lowered the % of decay you get on your rating each week.

itll make it asier on a server that has set up honor caps

las week standing 1 got 600K honor, with faster ques you have more games and will be easier to get 600k honor

our server ALi side agreed toa syspem, those going for rank all use it, r11 and below all know not to go over xxx amount of honor per week and then specific standings are given out to the top 10 or so people with standing 1 getting say 600K honor and then each standing below that getting 15K or so less

And its still a joke because its a game that "caters to the casual gamer" and requires you to play 15 hours a day to achieve that goal.

With less wait times you can push it down to a whopping 12 hours a day. Itll still be a luxury afforded only by those people with no jobs.

^ even when I was "on vacation" I had trouble playing for consecutive hours (just BGs, that is). Those who actually do it deserve it. I did see quite a few afk botters though... I don't know how they've gone on this long without getting caught.
