Some people have been getting themselves confused about the new Honor rules in Patch 2.4. Here are the parts players are getting mixed up about:
* Diminishing returns on honor for kills is being eliminated.
* If a player dies 50 times or more in a battleground, they will no longer be worth honor for the remainder of that battle.
Does this mean that players will not be worth honor to to anyone after 50 kills? Neth tries to clear this up, then goes on to explain why Blizzard have brought this in:
It’s attached to you and your account. So if you personally kill someone 50 times over, you’re not going to be receiving anymore honor for them…...We’ll see if we can update the patch note a bit to make it a bit more clear. It should be 50 kills with your character against someone else (Bobcleaver kills Billytarget 50 times) before they aren’t worth honor to you. This should also apply to each battleground and reset after each. Should this change or need more clarification, we’ll get that to you...
...We’re removing the diminishing returns on kills completely, but at the same time, there still needs to be some limitation to simply killing the same target/people over and over. This isn’t an extreme limit by any means. Camping someone and killing them repeatedly though, while possible, is going to have a limitation.
If you’re camping and killing someone over 50 times, does that mean you’re actually a good PvPer?







TBH, it could be less in outdoor pvp… Perhaps they are preparing for that pvp zone in Northrend. On the other hand, as they reset kills in battlegrounds, they could have 50 kills in that zone, and 10 o so kills in the rest of the gaming world.
