Which only works on paper and on a handful of balanced realms. On my main realm alliance has zero chance to buy pvp gear, unless maybe in the middle of the night. Result: even more server transfer away to a heavily alliance populated realm, resulting in even more unbalanced realms.

And exactly the same is true for needing honor points from random bgs to buy pvp gear while they can't control the amount of bots. Resulting in even more players who give up to play legit and starts botting. And then some joker at blizzards decides it's a good idea that you can upgrade honor gear with needing even more honor points.

Are you really doing dailies once you have the required rep for that particular piece of gear? I did the dailies for about 3 weeks, and I have enough points for extra rolls for another 2 months ...

Leaving town is good, but I doubt a never ending list of dailies is the right way to do that in the long run, or for alts.


The 1 portal back and the removal of HGWT make sense imo, I fly way more often in the world than I was in cata.
