2.4 might mean tougher Honor grind

[thinus]

im curious... what makes it more likely in 2.4 to get group leader? Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

I think joining as a group gives you preference for raid leader, so if you are the only one that joined as group then your group leader will get raid leader.

I didnt realize the change with lead, but I see that I am often getting leader in BG now on my multibox team. That alone makes this patch a win in my eyes.

Blizzard has stated several times that the gear matching system checks your bags and bank in addition to what you're wearing. Stripping naked or putting on greens does nothing.

So basically, 5 naked Tauren shaman's with all their gear sharded (5% health bonus, woo), should destroy any other naked class with all sharded gear

If you are just starting out with PvP at 70 and are in Greens and Blues, you will be delighted by the ease of melting faces en masse in all the BGs, as you run into mages with only 5khp, warriors with 8khp and warlocks who are still specced 41+ Affliction.

HEY take that back!! X( My main is +41 specced affliction :cursing: and I pretty much top the dmg and kill scores :thumbsup: on a bad day Ill come 2nd or third :whistling: and that's in a mix of PvE/PvP gear - yes - yes I am OP. LOL. I do love being a lock - btw my Lock is named Pheardotdead on Barthilas

I just trawled through three pages of search results at Bluetracker, and couldn't find anything to suggest that they check your bank.

What I have in my bank is totally irrelevant to how I perform in Battlegrounds and shouldn't be considered in any way, shape or form.

Could you post a reference if you get a sec?

Cheers.

Basically when you queue it's going to check all of the gear you own, average out how good the gear you have is, and then assign you a number.

That doesn't explicitly say the bank, but surely implies it. What is in your bank IS relevant, because you can use it. What would be interesting is whether or not it checks gear by spec. Like say my paladin has a full S2 healing set, but I'm ret speced atm and want to go in with my all blue ret set. Which does it use?

This is all I could find for now, I guess they hadn't said it as strongly as I thought. 8)
