The Honor Grind.
Ok so we’ve been talking TONS about PVE for a while now, a couple of hints at PVP here and there but I thought I’d drop a little something, something on the topic of honor grinding.
3.2 made grinding for honor as easy as grinding for sand in the desert. AND YET, some people still aren’t reading the patch notes well enough to capitalize on some of these things.
THE BIGGEST increase to honor that you’ll find IMHO is the defense of flags. I was doing some BG’s yesterday and I noticed that on some bg’s I was getting like 700-800 honor and then in other I was getting 1900-2200 honor.
Yeah quite a difference right? I also noticed that the 1900-2200 honor was coming from AB. (Which is good because I LOVE AB) and WSG, which is also good because if you go prot it’s cake work.
Yeah oddly enough if you DEFEND THE FLAG you make honor hand over fist, the cool thing is that it also helps you win AB...so it’s like killing two birds with one axe. I’m all for the quick kill in AB too, but I found that by not fighting it out a little that I was hurting my honor per hour count.
So I would suggest adding the following macro to your arsenal.
/BG get and DEFEND 3 zones, you get more honor for defending on flag, so get and keep three. BS, LM, Farm.
IF you’re already all honor geared out then let me help you make a few hundred gold an hour. Take your 10k honor that you can get after 4-5 AB and go trade your honor for a Epic gem (10k honor) have it cut and post on AH for 200g (which should be an undercut)
Congrats you are now making money from PVP, and helping to drive down the cost of titanium ore again.

Blizz needs to do something with 80 honor. I have 75K and nothing to spend it on. I mean if you are 216 or higher in weps/armor what do you use honor for? Selling gems? lame. useless, boring.
On another subject strand of the ancients a cool BG you another honor badge with nothing to gain.
wait till the next patch there will be hateful weapons unless u have furious or deadlys. but they will require no arena team rating. But also save as many as u can seeing as the arena season is coming to a end that most likely means new gear! :)
I’ll tell you what. With the amount of “new gear” I’m getting in my PVE setting I welcome all the extra honor I can lay my hands on as everything needs gemming.
I’m doing battlegrounds for regular honor right now and saving the badges for when “honor” weapons come out...in case they are better than what I have, what I really want is an pvp gun, bow, or thrown weapon to replace what I have on now.
If you find you’re all “honored” out I would strongly suggest selling the gems on the AH. 10k honor for 250g...not to shabby considering you can farm that easily in like 45 mins or so...give or take.
