I'm almost up to 100 tokens of every battleground except warsong.

I'm still waiting on enough honor to buy the piece I need, but after that, what the hell am I going to do with all these tokens?

Put some epic flying mount that costs like 100 of all the marks but comes with riding skill or something to that nature.

Maybe have it to where after 100 marks you start getting gold back instead from the BG or something.

Whatever it is, the npcs keep sending me mark after mark that I keep having to ditch.

*shrug* It's the same problem there's always been - with the exception of AV or EotS tokens you're going to end up with way too many tokens and not enough honor for the items you want.

They should just implement a turn-in system for tokens (three tokens = same honor as the 'end tick' for a winning match) and be done with it.

You can get mana and health pots for 2 tokens each (level 61) I find them usefull for 5man dungeons or heroics and save my better pots for raiding.

this is an idea i can get behind.

also, gimme something else to spend my spirit shards and halaani battle tokens on (honor hold/thrallmar too!). ive got nearly enough shards for another epic ring, and i swear im about halfway to the special mount you can get at halaa. too bad i dont want the damn thing :(

The whole honor / token system could use a good tweaking. Like being able to sell back items for honor, even at half cost. Having to go through the long, tedious process of upgrading a piece really makes BGing pre 70 pointless. And of course more items to buy with tokens. Like tabards for every faction. Including the standard sub-factions of the two main ones.

The honor gained for BGs is way too low, esp without by back, to appeal to anyone but the most hardcore players (And even then they better not have jobs or families.).

Blizz got the PVE content for BC right, lots of 5 mans with a few hardcore raid instances to keep those peeps happy too. Now it needs to do the same to BGs. Let Arena be the new "hardcore"of PVP and make BGs a little more casual friendly.

Right now in arena all you need to do is get yourself a base rating that you want to keep it at, once you do that, 10 games a week to keep getting arena points and you got yourself Epics better than the hours upon hours of grinding you need to do to get that 1 epic from BG's.

I'd like to see more consumables that can be bought with tokens. Would be nice to have more pots/bandages/food/scrolls. Even if you can only use them in BG, you might as well with all the marks you get, right?

Does anyone know a link to a site which explains how the Arena stuff works? The whole "get a rating and keep it" thing makes my brain hurt.

Just hit exalted with scryer this weekend and I was very disappointed with the few items a warlock can buy with the honor tokens acquired from turning in Arcane Tomes. After you get the shoulder enchant, whats left? I'm saving them just for another enchant just in case I get a better shoulder item.

Buy all the PvP mounts. 30 of each token. Get yourself a collection and change mounts on a daily basis.


But yeah, some kind of turn-in thing for either a different token (3 WSG = 1 AV, or something) or extra honor would be great.

Will arena get more hardcore as more teams get involved?

I would love to have the same problem as you guys. I really would like the stormpike ram, but am still about 30 marks off it. So with the alliance skill in BG's I am 30 LONG BG's before I get it.

I prefer the gold/honor points turn in for the marks.

I still have a ton of marks for all 4 BGs. Even if I regularly buy battle potions I still have extra marks.

It would be a shame to let these rot or to destroy these marks. But what else can you do?

We should be able to turn marks in for honor.
