It has to be said...

Grinding honor is probably three times as fast for me Alliance side as it is Horde. It's ridiculously easy. And somehow they're going to make this game rated and give arena points?

[Ualaa]

It seems horde wins 80% of AB's, 90% of WSG and 30% of AV's in the battles I've participated in. Alliance side, it feels like the horde win far more then they lose.

But it depends on queue times too. AB/WSG are very quick queues and AV is usually 8-10 mins a match, but from an alliance point of view, AV is the battleground to be in.

Eventually, I'll be gearing 1x Disc/4x Affliction Warlocks (horde) and 5x Balance Druids (alliance), both on Cenarius, which is Whirlwind; will get to see the server/battlegroup from both sides.

I'm on Gorefiend/Vindication and Alliance wins probably 80% of its AV games. Even on the losses though Alliance always has at least equal honor. The map and the flow of the game is just so slanted towards Alliance it's ridiculous.

I was playing in some Horde premades earlier and even with the premade we were barely squeaking ahead of Alliance on honor each game. Basically, in my experience, premade Horde = normal Alliance game

The grass is always greener on the other side, doesn't matter how many times you switch sides.

Actually I've played my Pally team on both sides on this server/Battlegroup and I can say that the honor is three times faster. It's not a question

Fortunately, AV isn't the only way to gain honor :-)

[Mosg2]

Losing AV is still fater honor than winning any of the others consistently :/ Minus premades.

It's not?

It's not?

Obviously there's the weekly WG quests which are an easy 20k. On top of that you can do ToC normal for shards + crystals when your faction controls WG - that's 3500 honor per hour (approximately - that is calculated with 12 minutes per run (you can do it in 10 mins or so). The drawback is that it's only doable when your side controls WG and it assumes you have a PvE capable team.

If you don't have a need more arena points this season you can but the honor tokens for those also - that's a quick 7k per week (or more, depending on your rating).
