I believe the weekly quest honor is based on HKs, so it's probably worth it to do it once a week.
I'll still do it. As long as there is a reward for doing it. I'm not sure if Halaa ever had a reward when it was first implemented. I only started playing halfwayish through BC (lolnoob). So meh.

Halaa :-\
...sucked. Really. That zone was dead most of the time, at least on my server.Originally Posted by iwco
Unless they increase the honor cap the week quests will still be appealing
if they increase honor from weekly qs wg will be worth doing,
otherwise ......its a dead end
Not at all, cause you will gaion more honor from kills and winning, look back at when we where still in TBC. We would get 900-1200 honor per BG?Originally Posted by Zet
Today we get 1-2.5k per BG, so I doubt WG will be used.
Tol Barad will have its own daily/weekly quests and a VoA type instance with level 85 gear. I doubt they will keep WG relevant for level 85s, though might be fun for people while leveling 75-78 or WotLK capped accnts.

we can only pray this will be trueOriginally Posted by Nighty
It will be the place to go to level your alt's professions to 450 with the amounts of herbs and veins in the area.
I wish they just turned WG off so I don't have to worry about it
Sure made me lol. ;DOriginally Posted by Mongoose19
They'll do it like:
"The Horde won 99% of the wg-battles during the wotlk expansion on your server, so it'll stay Horde."
Just kidding
It will still be used to level your alt's professions - herbalism and mining at least - to 450.
Others will probably gather materials for level 78-80 alts.
Another reason could be the "Wintergrasp Commendation", because they are bound to your account.
So probably a new Halaa, probably not. Time will show.
Halaa used to be Epic, no stupid loser buffs.
Just one big flashpoint, if your server was not either empty or full of hippies.
With the new points system coming into pvp and pve, then there is not certainty that "honor kills", or honor gain in general will even exist in the same form.
Wintergrasp is likely to become the new halaa, and I can seriously see the wintergrasp commendations getting some nerf or at least non-conversion to the new system.
I feel it is likely that existing emblems/honor etc will not be carried over to the new system, so everyone starts with a blank slate, not those with stockpiles immediately going in with a gear advantage.
The conversion of your bg marks into honor via to tokens was the first sign that blizzard do not intend to support stockpiling, with them being limited to 10 at a time, and with the limited duration of mails in your box to hold excess bg marks, then a stockpile would only be realistic to keep for so long.
The system in cataclysm and the limits to the amount being earned per week is a further indication of that.
