The Before the Storm content patch for World of Warcraft has been live
for about a week now, and the devs have had a better opportunity to
check out how the fixes and new features included in the patch work.
Now, if you've been busy trying out the new honor system, then this
piece of news might cause you to choke a bit.

According to Blizzard poster Nethaera, "the effort required to obtain
honor rewards is more trivial than we had intended." Consequently, the
devs have decided to apply a hotfix during today's maintenance that
reduced the amount of honor gained by approximately 30 . This change
allows the honor rewards to be obtained at rate that better reflects
the item s in-game value. Yes folks, one week into the new system and
it gets nerfed.

Nethaera says that "the reason that we decided to reduce the rate of
honor gain rather than simply raise the honor cost of each item is to
ensure that everyone s time and effort participating in PvP since the
patch is not diminished as this change will only affect future honor
accumulation."

A lot of PVPers have gotten pretty pissed off about this, but
according to Nethaera, "the information on the reduction of costs in
the future is still correct at this point in time," so that's perhaps
a little point of good news. Problem is, there's still no set date for
when exactly the cost reductions will take effect, so that good news
is practically nerfed as well.
