That target on minimap thing is going to suck for stealth classes; when people are magically still targeting you even after vanishing and running 40 yards away.

SOLUTION TO WORLD PVP....
if u made it that every kill of another player gained u like 100-200honour, if done alone, and shared if done with a group it would be ALOT popular. atm u kill somone and get pretty much no reward so there is no point. but with high honour available it would be more then worth it.

yeah and there you have 1000 exploiters hiding somewhere in ashevale killing them 10000 times after the pvp bonus is gone

not thx



like the new dungeon system so the last day of raids i can see how many points are missing for cap and go for it .

The problem with that is that once someone is honor capped there's no real point. Offer achievements, temporary titles, stuff like that, and imo it will be more successful than just currency.

Question about this Random Dungeon Finder -system...

Did I understand correctly? Now you can gain whole weeks points in one day or?

Just wondering the Queue timers... It's a good thing that I play an Tank. O_o

[Mundayz]

Loving the daily/week cap idea. <3

Soooooo, has Blizzard just completely forgotten about world PvP in Outlands?

Hey, here's a PvP objective in the middle of the zone. If you take it, you get stuff. Instead of worthless Honor Hold tokens, make a world PvP currency that you can use to buy real gear. Put in a few more towns that can be held by either the Alliance or Horde. Southern Barrens would be a great place for one. Hell, most contested zones should have one.

I agree! The Outlands concept of World PvP which continued what we saw in Silithus and Eastern Plaguelands should be brought back in Cata. Halaa was simply epic; we need that kind of world PvP in Cataclysm, which is supposed to be all about a war between Horde and Alliance.

I'd anticipate it wouldn't display you on the minimap as soon as you go invisible.

And here is the problem with that. Servers are not balanced. Horde on let's say Illidan probably outnumber alliance 20 to 1. That is why Blizzard has steered away from those type of PVP situations. It's also why they make Tol barad an even number of people on each team so that lesser population on a faction have a chance equal to the others.

Nice with the weekly dungeon, but I hope they also change the reward to match what you otherwise are able to earn in a week if you did dailies vs weekly. I don't think they will give us 7x70 valor points, but just give us maybe 210 or 280 or something like that. A bit like when they change Wintergrasp dailies into weeklies.

Pretty sure when you Vanish or stealth in anyway people loose their target.

Minimap targeting, been wanting that feature a looong time. finally!

Do you even realize how overpowered that would be in terms of honor farming? Honor would be a joke then. 200 per kill lol?
Please, surely you jest.

I started in BC and I've almost never seen world pvp. The only thing I've seen is world ganking and in general, on pvp servers, people are actually NOT looking for challenge, they jump on you if the overgear you by 3000 miles or outlevel you by 2000. This or they play a lolclass (see mage atm or DK). The only real world pvp I did was back then at lvl59 DK against other DKs at the start of WotLK in Hellfire Penninsula.

But, if HL world pvp is dead, it's still possible to have fun at low level. For exemple, I created a lvl1 hunter haste twink (78% haste) and around 400 life buffed with 15 resilience (48% reduction damage @ lvl1) and spend my week ends pvp flaged (pve server) in Azshara as alliance, killing quest npc and stuff. In general goblin fotm rerollers (mage) decked in BoA just attack me as they overlevel me by miles and expect me to be a quick kill and flag themselves. I then proceed and have fun killing them.

World pvp is still around but you need to trigger it.

it just shows where your current target is on the minimap, you can't target from the minimap.

[Deleted]

OH GOD! Finally!

Been waiting for a change like this, something like the Warhammer Online thing where you get an arrow underneath your character that points to the thing you targetted. This, showing it on the minimap, is even better. Wish I had that when I was camping the TLPD and the other Northrend rares.

Just to get this right.

I have to complete 7 random dungens in one week to earn 70 Valor Points ?
7 ? Nice job Blizzard. I have to play and play and play
It is possible that you enter the same rnd dungeon an Monday and on Tuesday. Will that be changed then ? Hope so...
After one week of let´s say playiny 6 rnd dungeons will that vanish on day 7 without getting any valor points ?

When you have a life and can only play in the evenings 3 days a week you will never be get Valor Points from rnd dungeons.
Perfect for all who can play and play and play. Bullshit for all others. This is not an improvement.

Blizzard please remove this point crap completly from this game. This was and will always be crap.
To get high level epics from doing daily hero kindergarten is a slap in the face for raiders.

Do you realise that the feature is for NPC targeting only? How will this have any affect on honor farming?

[Jaelian]

I hope we are being rewarded more VP for those 7 dungeons we do rather than the current 70 per day.

And we get horde Attacking goldshire regularly on Thunderhorn, although they always complain when they get overbeared when SW is close and we have a major PvP guild alliance side.

What is this I don't even.....? I really hope you are a troll. I just.... Really....

I think he was referring to the guy who wanted to bring world PvP back by giving 200 honor points when you kill an opposite faction player somewhere in the world.

This Guy:

And yes, that would be overpowered. Like Uselessrogue stated above, there would be a huge amount of exploiters who would just farm the honor with friends or such. You could easily cap the honor points in less than 5minutes if done near a GY. And now that we are available to buy stuff like Elementium ore and Savage leather for honor points, I really don't want to even think what would happen to those >_>

7 randoms for 7 times 70 valor points
Its really nothing more than "7 Per Week Instead of 1 Per Day".
ITS A GOOD CHANGE FOR PEOPLE WITH A LIFE. It means you can get the same rewards for playing 3 days a week and doing 7 dungeons, or playing 7 days a week and doing 7 dungeons.

dungeon change is amazing. GL finding a tank any day that isn't a tuesday.
