Thing is I believe they used HK's as Rank gain is the fact that there is no real investment as the progression for each expansion is way too fast. Expansion and phases are going by way too fast to invest in anything honestly

Do you believe people should be able to get rank 13/14 3 weeks after server release without actually playing the BGs like they are supposed to? TBC is coming at the earliest in August 2024.... Also, ranking could have still involved Honor points from playing objectives and since there is no rank decay, it would also not be that hard to rank up. It will just require you to play the freaking objectives + kill opponents
While I would agree with you normally that honor is > hk for ranking, its sadly too late. Imagine how ****ty it would be feel for anyone who grinded more than 20k hks for it just be wiped and the system completely changed. And then thered be a handful of ppl who got r14 that will be the only r14s for a very long time. They should fix tthis mercenary mode but honestly keep hks at this point imo
No, it is not too late. You need to read the thread before you post. They could easily just convert the HKs people have earned into a set amount of honor per HK, and set the rank requirements at certain amounts of honor based on that. This is extremely easy to do, and just involves actually making the effort to do it.
Yep way too fast.
im sure the unconfirmed unfixed bug that ruined bgs for everyone for the last 14 hours will further compound the problem faced by all the pvp players on the server. how long before everyone in the pvp community just quits?
Why would they wipe it out? just grandfather people in, give them 1 honor per HK or whatever. It's not complicated.
Edit: As of right now, Merc mode is on and works. No more (obvious) bugs. Queues are <5 mins and it's 40 v 40.
