I have been getting extremely frustrated with the small number of honor points I am getting in random battlegrounds in comparison to other people in the group.
For example, in one warsong gulch match (NOTE: these numbers are not exact - what i am trying to point out is the way they compare):
Me (Alliance)
Killing blows - 3
Deaths - 4
Honourable kills - 35
Damage done - 50,000
Healing done - 1,096,000
Flag captures - 2
Flag returns - 0
Honor gained - 46
A holy paladin (Alliance)
Killing blows - 3
Deaths - 3
Honourable kills - 37
Damage done - 35,000
Healing done - 965,000
Flag captures - 0
Flag returns - 1
Honour gained - 203
This is how my stats compare in most battlegrounds I do...
Can anyone explain why I get only 25% as much honour as other people? From what I can see there isn't any massive difference between my stats and those of the other player. We were both on the same team and our team won the battleground. Do you get extra honor for having high reputation with a particular faction or having high level pvp gear? Do you need to have an arena rating?
This obviously isn't the result of guild perks giving +10% honor points or whatever (which, btw, my guild has anyway) - the difference is too huge.
At 200 honor points per run, it will take ~10 runs to get a piece of gear...at 40 honor points per run, it will take ~50 runs!!!
I have asked a lot of people about this and nobody has been able to explain it.
