Seriously, I get 35 honour for every win in the Battleground - and I win very few, because I'm a knight so lose a lot because of being the weakest class. Then I lose and it's anything up to 300 honour for one loss, even against players the same level as me. It's just ridiculous.

Something needs to be done to balance Battleground honour loss against gain

Originally posted by 0xykotton View PostTired of people saying knights are the weakest class. Look at your build and look at other knights build and see what you are doing wrong. Stay away from mages you can't beat as well. Only go after archers and knights that are around your BR and you be fine. I hate the honor loss too but now that you don't have to show your rank anymore it provides a bit more strategy. Stop blaming the knight class based on your faults.
Secondly, how am I supposed to 'stay away from mages' I can't beat, when I am at 50% movement speed whilst transporting? Do try thinking before you reply.
Thirdly, not having to show rank doesn't help. A level 60+ mage will just run round the Battleground attacking everyone, regardless of what rank they are or are not showing. Besides, if I don't show my rank (or show a lower rank) I'll just look like an even easier target for them, won't I?

And, as far as Knights being the weakest class - I play a knight and I'll admit the class has many draw-backs. Never being in the top 10 of WB unless you spend massive balins, seldom being in the top 10 in GBs because it simply takes us longer to kill something (so less kills, less points), and so on. Still, being able to stand there and take massive damage has its appeal! And, with a bit of work, you can actually end up having a blow with some decent damage.

My point is one of balance: it would take me roughly nine wins at 35 points each to offset one loss of 300 points (roughly, I said, the maths isn't neat and tidy). I do not win at a ratio of nine to one. If anything I lose at a ratio of nine to one, because of those 'unstoppable', 'close to a god' players.

I said 60+, not 60, but that was an error as I'm level 58 should have said 50+ anyway - sorry for the typo. The mages in my Battlegrounds do just run around attacking everyone, and usually winning (they're the ones who come up as 'unstoppable' and 'close to a god' all the time in the info panel).

I think the high honour loss is good.
It discourages people from ranking up beyond their defendable means.Originally posted by CreamySaucepanYou are just a freakozoid... Monster of Frankenstein meets Jabba the Hutt...

And please read the thread: this is not a 'knight's are underpowered' point, it is a point about the imbalance between the high penalty for losing a fight in the Battleground and the small gain for winning - which affects all classes (although it does affect weaker classes / lower level players more).
