WOW CLASSIC HIGH WARLORD AND GRAND MARSHAL from buzai232's blog

If you ever ask a Vanilla WoW player what was the hardest, the most painful, and unrewarding grind, you will have one answer - a run for High Warlord and Grand Marshal. If there was an in-game definition of grind, it would be definitely the struggle for the highest faction rank. Every player would rather go collect Splinters of Atiesh in Naxxramas, than go for the rank 14.To get more news about WoW Gold Classic, you can visit lootwowgold news official website.

Long story short, it is the title given to the best of the best players in both World of Warcraft factions in PvP. In practice, the number oscillated around 0,1 %.
Just after the original release of World of Warcraft, the PvP segment was not finished, thus it was not organized at all. The only reason to go and kill people was… to kill people. And yes, there were more than enough volunteers willing to clap another faction players (isn’t it the meaning of the whole war in Azeroth?).Later on, with patch 1.4 and the release of content Phase 2, the Honor System was introduced. How did it work?
It was arguably the most broken, unfair, punishing, and hated World of Warcraft feature of all time. Throughout the given week a player could register Honorable Kills by slaying the opposing faction players. HK’s were then converted to Honor Contribution Points. Each week during the reset player’s CP’s were then recalculated into Ranking Points. Each week every player was losing 20% of RP’s accumulated. This means, that if you had 50,000 Ranking Points by the end of the week, you’d lose 10,000. However, by the time of weekly maintenance, top players, who farmed the most Honor in each bracket, were awarded with RP’s. The main condition was to play more, than others. It’s really hard to measure how much your rivals play, so you had to push it to the limit. And if you fumbled, you could have said: “Farewell” to the progress.
There wasn’t any simple or built-in ways that would provide players with the information about the placement in your current bracket, but this day there should be more than enough add-ons serving this purpose. You can see the Classic WoW honor settings tab down below:
