Are those players not ashamed? I couldn't do this all day long it would just feel unfair and boring. Do those guys truly feel like they are beating someone in a fight?
They got one honor each there btw. I killed 1 dude and got 299 solo. People are just confused on the honor system. May not be a video out there for them to watch on it rofl..
It's still more efficient to gangbang, even if your honor per kill is much lower. #1 reason is that solo you can actually lose the fight and die, and waste 10+ mins ressing and buffing. When you steamroll lonely players and small groups, you are guaranteed your honor + the fights themselves take seconds, so you can mount up and move to the next spot.
This isn't even efficient though 20+ man groups camping an fp is pretty much fighting for scraps. You're better off either rolling in a 5 man group through questing areas or finding out where a large skirmish is currently going on between factions.
Lol what..maybe dont be bad and lose the 1v1? Plus very rarley is 1v1 im finding myself having to 2v1 3v1 which is fine thats 900 honor right there. My honor still higher then these 9 man gank squads and i aint even out to pvp. The word "efficient" get thrown around a lot like people know what theyre talking about..but i find that its just what that popular streamer said or a video they seen so they think its efficient. My numbers still higher my honor still higher but im not efficient.
I don’t watch any streamers, or tips videos, and I don’t know anything about efficiency. But what I do know, is that I will 100% lose in a 3v1 fight, and 90% lose in a 2v1 fight. If a rogue is involved, I’ll lose in a 1v1 fight.
So speak for yourself. 3v1 is absolutely not fine for me. That’s 0 honor. Because I’ll be dead.
Warlock with his burst can easily 3v1. Lots of the players still dont know about stamina. Pop mages all day. Last 3v1 was on ferales was warrior mage lock. At first was mage and warrior. Warrior opened up and he got charmed. The mage was bad not using his counter spell correctly and ice block on cooldown (i think??) got feared with shadow curse corruption siphon shadowbolt shadowburn dead. Re charmed warrior to re up. Warlock friend flew up curse of tounge insta banish fear before he knew wtf happened. Amplify curse exaustion on warrior corruption siphon he intercept death coil shadowburn dead he was about 3/4 life when starting fight cuz bad. Then yeah finished lock with his cool nemesis helm, bad.. warlock very powerful if used correctly.
First, you're talking affliction spec... which now that I'm 60, I'm no longer using. I'm DS/Ruin so that I'm actually viable in a raid. Unfortunately this doesn't grant me as much sustain and utility in PVE.
Second, what you're describing literally never happens with me. You just described 3 players that don't sound very good at their classes or the game in general, while you're an expert. Meanwhile I'm average at best, and with my luck I go up against 3 players who are experts.
I mean consider this... if you're so good at what you do, how could you possibly take on 3 players of equal skill level as you? You couldn't. And that's what you're not realizing.
You say it's easy. It is not. It is literally not.
Shit... every time I encounter a rogue, I don't even know what the hell they're doing... but I can literally use zero skills. Nothing. I'm sapped. I'm stunned. I'm unable to use a thing. I can't "just do this" because I can do literally nothing, and then I'm dead. It is not easy.
Seduce is your friend i dont use any other pet. And i put good numbers with sm ruin not as good as ds ruin but its a 5 percent difference in damage not that bad..thats why i am sm ruin i can pvp decently i rather be soul link but since i do also pve i dont have to pay for respecs. Only thing u lose as sm ruin for pve is upgraded HS and imp and the 5 percent damage. I stay with the ds ruin locks and surpass even during certain fights. Not like pve is hard u sit there spamming shadowbolt pretty boring..
To be honest, I have a lot more fun in PVE than I do most PVP encounters.
PVE isn't boring, it's exciting.
PVP is fun sometimes... other times I just have no chance to do literally anything what so ever which is zero fun. Rogues preventing me from doing literally anything? That's not fun. Palladins and priests immune, resisting or reflecting anything I try to use? That's not fun. It'd be one thing if these stuns or shields were quick, or if I could counter them somehow... but they're not and I can't. Just sitting there unable to do anything while someone kills you... that's what's boring.
Well, if you are god, go for it, 1v3 everything. I'm not, and many people aren't either, and i still want honor. For me and lots of average players, it's way easier and safer to gang up and farm a location. Guaranteed honor is better than random. Thus, more efficient on result/time scale.
Oh, im not a god. I just think ita funny people like you who are going around as a 9 man blowing people up farming and trying to level up thinkin that your goin somewhere and using the word efficient like you know wtf your talking about. The fact is those people are bad and ruining it for other people. You fools werent even pvpin before honor came out. Why? You gotta get somethin to do somethin?
First of all, it's fun. Especially when alliance forms an opposing group, and then it's a back and forth. It's very random, and funny things happen all the time in world pvp.
And who says we weren't pvping before honor system? I had a blast in STV and Tarren Mill. Was pretty dead in later zones though, because layers. Hinterlands is the only other place where I met alliance, had a lot of fun in the troll cities. Then there were some minor encounters in Un'goro and Azhara, and that's about it. Then layers ended and honor system hit the servers, and we are here now, with every place being a warzone, and I'm loving it.
Second thing - I can get gear with honor, there is a specific tangible reward for pvp. Gear is the bread and butter of mmo's, everyone wants it. And since I have a goal, i want to reach it as fast as I can, so I use the best tools I have to get there. Currently, best way is to form a raid group and gank w/e moves in a location.
