Im 68 atm and I want to grind honour so I can get S1 items. Now Im wandering fun-wise and timewise what would be the easiest way to get honour.

At this point im planning to grind honour @69 in WSG, AB and EoSV. When I have capped honour (or sick of those BG) I will level to 70 and start on AV.

Im not experienced at all with BG so im wandering if this is a good way to do it.

i'd say : doe het als lev 69 :D

Seeing as you're potentially one of the most powerfull chars in the X9 BG's it should be a lot more fun (and easier) then being a lowly green/blue lev 70 in the 70 Eye or AV. You could even think about twinking here. Especially so if you have more than one 70.

If this is your first 70 i'd say level to 70 asap because that also opens the daily quests for you for both the BG's and the cooking/heroics.

Here is what i have done so far and also what i plan to do before I hit lv 70.

Right now i am lv 56 very close to 57, at lv 49 i did 2 days a few hours each day doing ab/wsg i done enough to get me 30 tokens of each and also just enough honor to get the trinket cant remember the name but the one that stops your char from losing control i.e stuns etc.

at 59 i plan to get me av tokens so at lv 60 i can get a pvp mount, am a bloodelf and i hate the racial mount lol.

And depending on how muc fun i have at 59 BG's i will stay that lvl for a little while longer and get all the tokens i need for the set. then once i have the tokens i will grind out the honor at 69 so as soon as i hit 70 i can get the set and also do EOTS so i can also get the weapons, altho i'm still torn between the daggers or swords as right now im mutilate build and love it but im not sure how well mutilate works with raids/5mans

I am speculating about something I have a hunch about but don't know for sure:

You get more honor per game in the 70 bgs than the 60-69's.

Is that true?

You get around 400 honor from daily's at level 70 and around 12g aswell.
Maybe getting the marks wont be a bad idea at 69, but you'll want to go to AV to get all your honor once you hit 70. I get about 600-800 per match at AV if we win and its the weekend.

A suggestion for those lurkers not quite to their 60s:

Grind a bit of honor whenever your level ends with a 9. Even just a few sessions will help you a ton later. Once you get to Outland and start lusting after the honor gear (s1 swords anyone?) you won't be faced with spending endless hours catching up (which is where I'm at now, doh!). Not to mention the skills and knowledge you'll need at 70 for pvp'ing.

Happy hunting,

Grinding Honor before 70, so far I have the Cloak (+12agil) and Off Hand with the Mainhand coming in sometime over the weekend so I can slam Mongoose on it :P

I find battle grounds easy to play and most of all win at level 60-69, as the lack of resiliance make a crit heavy class (rogues) really come into their game.

They way you are planing to do it may get quite boring after a while. I play to get 2-3 Parts of the honour kit each level and then grind to the next level. Repeating this, I should get 10-13 of the S1/level 70 pieces of honour by the Time I reach 70.

I'd say get to 70 and hop on some arena teams so you're getting arena points AND honor every week.
