    Just grinded like 50 eots wins (about 5 losses) on the eots weekend and even with 3 base 10-15 min wins and instant queues the honour rate was not that great. Might be better at 85, I sure hope so.

    (Was bg lvling because I was getting sick of collection quests).

    I'm 26-3 for EotS, and the honor is pretty good, about 150 per win.

    Oh sweet, that's 3x better than pre-85. For me at 84, a 3 base win in 10-20 mins was averaged around 50 honour. Including around 30-50 hks. Just to give you an idea of the honour rate.

    Tol Barad is pretty good, all but 3-4 of the dailies are easily boxable.

    I've been playing horde and the BG queue times have just been horrendous for me. Fifteen minutes has been a *short* wait. Am I the only one having trouble with this, or has everyone already transferred to Alliance already?

    So in classic + burning crusade, alliance won the vast majority of games in most battlegrounds; their queue time was long. The horde had short queues but lost most of the games.

    In wrath + cataclysm, the horde seem to be winning the vast majority of the games, and have long queue times. As an alliance, my queue time is 2 mins for non-BG specific weekend games and 5-30 seconds for the BG that is featured that weekend.

    They really need to go with Red team vs Blue team, horde and alliance on both sides... random starting positions. The next person to join, goes to whichever side has fewer players. A BG starts when there are a minimum of x players who are distributed as evenly as possible across the two sides.

    Ive always wished they would have at least one bg with mixed factions. They already have neutral cities where factions can align with the same rep group (scryers,aldor). And now people can have both factions on the same pvp server on one account.

    I just finished gearing from Honor today. Nothing left to buy with honor, they really need to offer gems for purchase.

    I will always suggest the 40 man BGs. AV or IoC is a place where a boxer won't be able to be focussed on by an entire team.

    Not that it isn't fun to have 3 enemy rogues sitting your GY in WSG waiting for you to spawn just to gank you again. Just gets tiresome.

    I also find 40 mans are where a boxer can have maximum impact without drawing too much attention to themselves. I can normally hold down IBT or TP by myself with my Protadin and 4 elesham team and that can significantly change up a game, when those towers go down. Also in IoC, if you can bottle up the horde inside their GY in their keep and let your team run bombs, it's pretty much win every time.

    If you're running WSG with say, a protadin and 4 resto druids, you can of course significantly alter that game by being flag runner but you will get a LOT more attention from the enemy if things go right and a LOT more abuse from your team if things go wrong. People don't tend to care about someone boxing in a 40 man as they do in a 10 man, for obvious reasons.

    For ferals, I'd still suggest AV. You're trying to take objectives and flags at that. 5 stealthies are mighty handy when holding FW RH or SP AS.

    If not that, I'd suggest AB for maximum wins
