Okay so, this may upset some of the hardcore wannabes on the server, but being fresh on Blackrock, as, I didn't play after Arena Tournament merged with you guys, I am experiencing the grind. Now I've started up again, and I've realised the drain, and the bore of trying to gear. The main issue that stands out for me, is the offsets, and the fact you can't purchase ANYTHING with honour except transmog. Before I go any further, I know for a fact I'll get flamed by some people saying "Omg just get higher rating then on flush you'll get more points", right, and how are you supposed to get higher rating when past 1.7/1.8 all you run into is FW players? It's literally impossible to beat and it's so frustrating to go up against when you know you played better, but they won purely due to gear.
Gear should not be an issue in 2017, the game is old, who wants to be spending time gearing when almost everyone has experienced the tediousness a hundred times over. So, what I'm suggesting is perhaps make honour actually useful? Right now, what can you do with honour? Purchase over-priced Arena Cases for 25,000 each for the chance of getting a transmog? At least make a few pieces require around 60,000 honour, perhaps Belt and Bracers?
The fact the flush is only twice a week is a big issue as well, as I stated earlier, it's very difficult getting to a decent rating as the gear is a big factor, and when a fresh player gets to around 1.8 then queuing is absolutely pointless, to run into Full Wrathful players. Currently, after 3 flushes, I have only 1000 Arena Points. This is just a suggestion btw, what do other people think?
