Subject: Question - Honor Changes in 1.12 (Blue) |
| |
I remember reading a blue post somewhere about honor decay being made "more forgiving" in 1.12. While I have no idea which forum I read this on, if someone can link to the post that'd be great--i'll edit it in. However, for now I figured I'd ask if the honor system decay changes are still being slated to be implemented in 1.12, and if they are, to what number are they being changed to instead of the current 20% loss of a players total contribution per week?
Thanks!

The honor curve is being adjusted to make ranks available to more players. The exact details of how many per rank, we aren't saying.
Honor kills will no longer have such a steep decay. They will be reduced to 10% decay per kill which basically means you can kill someone more times before you start getting no honor at all for them.
These are not meant to be permanent fixes. There are significant Honor system changes in the works to be released around the same time as the expansion, The Burning Crusade. Please note that when we say 'at the time of the expansion' it means that since these changes are a part of the core game, they will be applied to everyone whether they buy the expansion or not. It is only the additional content that will not be accessible without the expansion.
I hope that helps.

Q u o t e:
Nethaera,
First of all, will you marry me?
Second of all, can you guys PLEASE... PLEASE... PLEASE... get some information on the honor changes in the expansion out to us!
PvP is the only reason I play this game, the only reason I ever did any PvE was to own people harder. Check my gear, check my spec if you want... it's true! Please for the love of all that is Holy (i.e. WoW... oh and beer) ask the guys in grey suits if you can let us get some info!!!
Edit - that is... my gear and spec on my NE Druid of course ;)
We should be having more information come out about it 'later' (patent pending). We have a schedule of information that is being released and of course the community team is respectful of the schedule as well as doing what we can to keep information flowing where we can.

Q u o t e:
Did you just patent the word 'later'? I like it...
I'm trying to branch out beyond 'soon'. Expand my horizons so to speak.

Q u o t e:
Can you confirm one way or the other whether or not the weekly Rating Points decay will be altered? It's currently 20% of your total, capped at 2,500 maximum actual loss, per week. Are there any plans to alter this, or is the change to the number of people per rank the only relief as far as advancing goes?
I don't have any information on changes to that at this time.
