Ходят упорные слухи о возвращении системы званий в дополнении Катаклизм. По сути, они ничем не обоснованы. За все время игры видел только двоих ордынцев с таким званием. Помню ник одного - Бёрн (Рилм Свежеватель душ). Аналог у Альянса - звание Главнокомандующий.

Комментарий от Pascal88tgn

У моего друга такое звание... в классике он был тру пвп задрот... собственно таким и остался :) получал он его на варсонге, с ником Liox (шам).
У меня есть звание сержант... думал нафармить побольше, но потом понял что просто терпения не хватит :)

Могу обрадовать вас) я сам фан такой системы пвп на катаклизме по многим прозьбам игроков вернут прежнюю систему класика только с модификациями) читайте тут

So let's say I am a High Warlord ( I really am only a Legionnaire as far as Pre TBC ranks go) but I am curious. Will I receive achievement credit for all the previous ranks? I mean I see there is a rank for attaining each of the titles all the way up to HWL. so I am assuming the HWL would only get points for that single achievement, bypassing all the other ranks and achievements that precede it but I am not sure.

Комментарий от Umbra366

The description says "Earned the title", referring to the past. So I am assuming that players who've achieved a higher rank will earn credit for the lower ranks as well. Though we will not know until the time comes.

Комментарий от Redeadx

The only way to get this Achievement, is to have PvP'd a bit before Burning Crusade was released.

High Warlord

Horde only
Rank 14 (of 14)

These ranks are no longer attainable.

Комментарий от saiex

Ha... "a bit". Try at least 8 hours a day, every day.

Комментарий от Mekku

Try 6 months.

Eh, you must not have been invited to the premade parties =D. 6 months is a pretty long time, 13-14 only took me an extra month of being #1 in honor every week.

Комментарий от disasterr

High Warlord is one of the best titles in the game when you have it everyone notices you.

Комментарий от Vehemence

For 10-ahhh what the hell.

Комментарий от fengas

Blizzard has officialy stated in BlizzCon 09 that PvP titles like High Warlord and others are returning in next expansion World Of Warcraft Cataclysm

Комментарий от Slavaa

In BC this would have been more valid, when just having a title was impressive, but it's not so much anymore.

I have 17 titles and haven't even cleared naxx 10, and at least 3 of them are of moderate badassery.

Комментарий от Disturbedchild07

Honestly. The thought of them returning the old honor system makes me happy yet #$%^es me off at the same time. I mean, I don't know about the rest of you. But i did the grind at 60. And although i only got to rank 9. It was difficult. IMO, Noob's shouldnt be given the chance to earn those title's. Since the people that have main's from Pre-TBC worked their asses off for them. :) Thats just my thoughts.

Комментарий от Bloodstriker

Try 10-16 hours a day with no break. Also missing one day means that you've just added another week just to catch up. And during this time, you have to continually win the BG in the fastest time possible (no AV-akers here).

Комментарий от Ruack

I saw that a Screenshot hasnt been added yet so I took that liberty.

Комментарий от genericname

Epic lulz :P

Комментарий от bolverkr

Nah it wasn't about winning AV quickly. Back then "quick AV" was pretty much an oxymoron. It was better to get in AV for lieutenant kills etc. and get out with another bg pop, getting as many solo kills as you could in the process (and that was after they started allowing us to multi-queue). The honor grind was more about kills back then, less about bonus.

AV at the time at best took an hour or two, at worst, days.

Комментарий от Bloodstriker

The problem with what you are saying is that it would be no where near the level of work we did if you are able to acheive this in one day (or even a month). It's sort of like saying instead of jogging 100 miles, I'll sprint 100 yards and call it even. (Actually it's more like logging on a treadmill, since if you stop, you get pulled back. And as you get closer to your goal, the treadmill goes faster and faster.)

The Rank 14 titles aren't about doing something difficult for a day. It was more about endurance and consistency.

What we went through was 6 months of non-stop pvp. This means, you have 5-10 min meal breaks, you can sleep for 8 hours at first, but during the last month, you get to sleep for 4 hours each day (no such thing as weekends). And that's it. You don't have time for anything else. You don't even have enough time to sleep near the end. If you slept in day, you just reset your progress by a week or more.

I can't think of anything in this game (or any other) that has these kind of requirements. Some of the self-proclaimed hardcore raiding guilds (4-5 nights a week), wanted in the action thinking it was easy and decided to form a group against ours. After realizing that they couldn't farm more honor than us, they joined with us. The thing was, these guys that would raid 30-40 hours a week burned out after a month of doing the grind. (They stopped raiding to do this). They couldn't believe the dedication required to do this.

A regular occurence in the pvp team that I lead was that people would fall asleep on the keyboard while in a bg. We even had to exchange phone numbers so we could call the person to wake them up.

Think of it this way - during the last month of my 6 month grind, the honor farmed was something like:

Week 1 - 900K
Week 2 - 940K
Week 3 - 980K
Week 4 - 1.2MM

Given that I was in a premade, and we had instant queues, the rate that we could farm honor was about 10K per hour. So if we break it down to hours played:

Week 1 - 90 Hours
Week 2 - 94 Hours
Week 3 - 98 Hours
Week 4 - 120 Hours

There's a total of 168 hours in a week. So, consider that you need to eat, sleep, go bathroom, shower, etc.

Now the last week is 48 hours of time not pvping. If you spend every minute of the time not pvping to sleep, you would get 6.8 hours of sleep per day. But of course you need to eat, turn on the computer, and do other things, so you wind up with about 4 hours per day to sleep.

Remember, I'm only talking about the last month of 6 months. Although, the each week gets tougher and tougher, so let's say on average, we multiply the effort by 3.

So the equivalent I would be thinking of would be 1206 (or 50 full 24 hour days) hours of effort in 3 months.

Best thing I could think of is that Blizz allows you a 3 month time period to obtain 1206 hours of pvp, and each hour you miss per day, you would lose about 100 hours of progress.

This would still be easier than the old system, since you wouldn't need to compete with your own faction (nothing like pvping 100 hours that week to get top standing and have someone come in above you at 105, meaning you have to redo that week all over again).

But I think this would more accurately relfect the time and effort invovled in getting the HWL title without all the server drama that came with it.

Комментарий от Bloodstriker

On our server, the high pop side (alliance) would have their own premade teams. They had really long queues, and would hop on our vent server to chat with us while they waiting for a bg to pop.

Basically, they would roll the pugs fast, but when they came across our team, they would still play to win. I would say they won around 50% of the time at first.

Then we realized that playing them is a waste of our time, and we would just afk out of the match if we saw them. No point in spending 30 mins on a fun game - we were there to farm honor. Easier to afk out and find a pug to play against for a 4 minute win in AB.

So in effect, while the alliance had horrible queues, they still had the ability to obtain more honor than a single, lone, pvper that played 24 hours a day.

Комментарий от Vikturus

If a Grand Marshal does a faction change to horde, he/she gets the High Warlord title instead. I think there should be something else for faction changers...For ally going horde: Forsaken Grand Marshal. As for hordies going alliance, i don't know.

I would like to see new ranks in Cata, not the old ones again. That way the new players can't recieve our old ranks, yet they can show how strong they are (now!).

Комментарий от Stonsen

I am all for the reintroduction of the old PvP titles, but for those of us who have them from vanilla, there should be some kind of special reward, something to symbolize all of the hard work and dedication.

Комментарий от austin210

This is one of the dumbest things ever said. I'm surprised people just agree with bloodstriKer. So because you spend a majority of your time doing a mindless grind you deserve some epic title, and then complain that no one can comprehend how hard it was. A title measured by how many countless hours means nothing, it means you played alot, it doesn't maKe you a good player. The system was bad when it started and thats why they got rid of it. They may bring it bacK with the next expansion and have the titles based on win/loss ratios and other stats which would only maKe way more sense. If doing repetitive grinds maKes you some hardcore player, then i hope blizzard never caters to any hardcore players.

Комментарий от Combatkim

it means you played alot, it doesn't maKe you a good player..!

Define skills? :) cause you can be a good solo player, duel and win.
But mess it all up when it comes to be a good teamplayer in a bg. (because its sooo boring to guard i want to kill kill, oops forgot to call for inc cause im good and think i can kill everyone)
Messi cant win it all by himself, he need the rest of barca to make it happen :P

tbh, i think its sad to read this comment from you, thinking everything is easy and np's. but just a matter of time..
Once it was actually about TEAMPLAY, and not solo performance (and yes you still had to be good, cause theres still other premade opponents and good random teams out there)
but if you wanted to win it ALL, and win it all FAST (arathi basin within 5 min every game ect). it required skills and great teamplay.
in the end of a good teamplay, you almost dosent have to call for inc, cause your teammates already have your back and they dont zerg, but just add the amount of players to the amount of incommings. again because of the good skills and teamplay, you dont need to outnumber the enemy with a big zerg and not be able to defend another spot.
ofc you dont experience that today.. at all.. and its more about solo bg's be lucky to hit a good game. (cause when you make a premade today and you lose, everyone suddently have some other stuff to do :P not thinking, that good teamplay also requires practice, not used to do hard work it seems but getting all the free wins served.)
But try to have 15 ppl work together, that good to win 99% of all the games within 5 min. every day, 18 hours a day for alot of month.

This title has returned with the introduction of rated battlegrounds. You need a minimum 2400 rating to get the achievement and gain the title.

I immediately created a wowhead account when I saw this post so that I could make a comment of my own. In short, it is absolutely ridiculous. Firstly, I think the poster is full of crap... secondly, he makes it sound like he made some type of real sacrifice. There are people out there who work every day of their life, just so they can feed their family. And they sweat and bleed. You sit at home in your air conditioned room, with your pathetic parents waiting hand and foot on your spoiled jobless @#$, pushing buttons on a keyboard and claim that you and your friends were so weary from it that you would often pass out on your keyboard.

Probably because your fat @#$ needed some exercise! You are the kind of person that makes me sick. I can't believe people would even believe what you type. I personally know people who gained the rank of HWL and they were the same kind of people who would win-trade in arena when it was still new.

Of course it was impossible. You say that because you got the rank. If you didn't you would be on here saying how easy it was to cheat it and how it didn't really matter. But since you got the rank you trudge on over to the comments section and make it sound like it was a real challenge.
@ Bloodstriker

I have watched countless videos of HWL's trouncing noob after noob after noob: all while keyboard turning and clicking abilities with their mouse button! I would go as far to say that players were for the most part absolute #$%& back then. WoW has evolved like any other game. Generally players are becoming better and more people understand how the game works. It was not so back then. It may be true that there were things more challenging in Vanilla, but for the most part it was due to a huge lack of understanding and complete ignorance.

Don't brag that you have more time and dedication (to play a game!). It makes you sound pathetic. The modern day arena and even RBGs present more of a challenge than the old PvP ranks ever did. If you think differently, I will bet money you can't obtain the new ranks yourself. On my first month of World of Warcraft I found myself being killed by a level 36 raptor in STV as a mage. Yes, that is when spell pushback was a #$%&* and it would refuse to let you cast if something was wailing on you, but if I went back now and did it all over... the raptor would have never been wailing on me in the first place! The game has evolved, and so have the players.

Bottom line: I'm glad they are giving everyone a shot at the titles. The newly released titles are more challenging than HWL of vanilla. Get off your high horse and quit complaining, NOOB.

It's a different story now, but back in Vanilla, I don't believe anyone gained this or the GM title without the use of bots or account-sharing, both of which are breaches of the EULA.

It simply was NOT POSSIBLE to play the game that much AND eat, drink, sleep, use the bathroom, maintain a reasonable level of personal hygiene, have a social life, have a relationship and hold down a job (or maintain good grades at school) at the same time.

A friend of mine was aiming for the GM title, but he could not keep up the requirements for it, so he settled for rank 11 (for the mount), and was so burned out after he got there he canned his account for 4 months.

Комментарий от erion2

Blizzard ruined the glory of this title by implementing this into RBGS, now every schmuck with a credit card worth of $200~ can get this title by paying the wintraders to boost them to 2400.i know there are legit players who got to 2400 in the right way, and i feel bad for them because of their dedication.

Комментарий от Catastrophic73

Back in the day of actually being a HWL. Best times of this game.

Комментарий от CapnS

I've played WoW off and on for years, and one of the best times was when I spent most of my time playing with the main Horde pvp "HWL" group. Pretty much everyone was a General, except for a few Warlords who took turns going for High Warlord (they even had an agreement with the main Alliance pvp group so they would take turns letting each person get it instead of all-out competing.)

I never went for HWL or even Warlord, but I had so many good times running with that group. There were lots of fun personalities, and I was a shaman and we were soooo op for pvp back then, and all the fun personalities were also really skilled and disciplined pvp'ers so we steamrolled. Good times, tho it sucked seeing half the ppl who got HWL have nervous breakdowns.
