DISCUSSION: The new Honor System

[Selaya]

Yes, exactly.
And the term you`re looking for is a character`s GUID (Globally Unique IDentifier).

Just dont give good transmogs to bads and all is good

[Ihopeyoucry]

I don't farm honor for a transmog, where's your motivation now? We now have s8 gear for free to just relax and play with friends. Who really needs this new transmog system?

Hello, Malaco.
I am sorry for the off top - never used the forums before :)
I have one little question for you, but I would really prefer to write it down in a kind of a private message or email.
I understand that you are currently extremely busy, and it may take time to get a response from you, however, it is very-very important for me.
Could you please let me know if there is a way to ask you a question in private and how can I do it.
Looking forward to your reply, and thanks in advance! Have a good one, cheers!

There is something that I don't understand. This realm lives because of the players not the staff, I think here we can all agree.
So why is the staff not listening what the customers have to say.

I just ask you something, make a poll that will last one week too ask people if they are ok with this new system (don't do a yes or no poll, make something a little more elaborate). I think you don't realise the proportion of players that are disappointed by this new system.

I hope we can find a solution before it's too late.

Have a good day

Pretty much what he said.

I was gonna farm some 2400 mogs this season on alts, but nvm since I won't even be able to use them anyways.
Also 6k+ BG wins to mog all my chars.

It should be noted that the honor farming system as it stands makes people care less about transmog.

transmog was always a bonus to arena. "oh ive reached 1750 2s, yay new transmog" type stuff happend alot. and in all honesty it was the goal of the cool and badass transmog that got people wanting to go higher rate. But now you can do it by ID aslong as you have the token (atleast thats how the system appears to work) so if they (the player) want to farm honor they can presumably farm it in bgs and be able to lazily sit there and maybe even afk it instead of trying to climb a ladder but still end up with a 'MLGPROTRANSMOG' without having stepped foot into arena.

Which in the end only hurts the realms arena activity.


this is why some time ago (after 3v3 had died out and the only viable way to do any sort of 3s on AT/blackrock was yoloq) i started to play only on ragnaros (because while the 3s on ragnaros should still be fairly dead. atleast you dont have to deal with all psuedo-pro's who rage every 2 seconds). i did for a while still log onto blackrock to do a few yoloq fights (but always got teamed up with full rele rets and priests on my aff lock but w/e). I dont think the system will stay as it is for long, eventually they'll prolly tweak it a lil more to make it faster for arena players or something. Its just that as it stands it is a fairly useless system. Id rather just not transmog then spend hours a day grinding honor for a statless thing on a realm thats supposed to focus on skilled game play and being competitive. and if transmog is effectively out of the picture (as well as some of the competitive nature of the realm sad to say). then thats 1 of the biggest bonus's to the realm being nullified. So it makes me think more ppl from blackrock will reroll to the other realms fairly soon :/

sidenote, id love to see a similar system added to the "normal" realms. imagine 70k honor per transmog token (based on current honor rates). would seem legit too me as people already bg spam on there. hell they could even make it work with arena points (which is how i figured they would of done this system. IE 30k or so honor per token but say only 1k arena points per token) but its just a random thought i had while writing this.

The price is high indeed. But that was also intended.
And i can gladly tell you that people that donated in the past on AT and warmane premium users will get T7 unlocked for free. Without any tokens req.

Nice, when will this be happening? :)
