Idea to save AV; simple

Concerted Efforts should include 1 of all BG marks, not just 4/5. Meaning, you turn in 1 of AV, AB, EOTS, WSG, SOTA marks. In addition, increase the honor gain to a flat amount of 1000 honor. This way, more people would play AV since its required for the Concerted Effort quest, and extra honor overall.

edit: Also, come out with savage weapons, shield, ring, trinket and relic (if apply to class) that there is more gear to earn with honor, and more incentive to play BGs/AV.

We plan to do this in a future patch.

We'll have to wait and see if we feel it's necessary to increase the amount of honor earned or add these levels of items.

Q u o t e:
I've played many AV's on both Bloodlust and Vengeance.

Bloodlust; Horde rarely lose.
Vengeace; Alliance rarely lose.

It's not the map. And who dominates is always based on whether or not Horde leave people to defend IBGY.


It can vary by battlegroup, yes. Overall we don't have any big balance changes planned for Alterac Valley at this time.
