Lower population would actually make it somewhat easier to get "honor cap" for Max RP each week. Lower people PVPing means the ability of people aren't having to grind millions of honor a week just to keep rank or rank up. This server you might only need 100k honor to keep ranking up with near Max RP

More like 400-500k imo. 100k is pretty casual if you ask me, it might give you ranking 50 or something (alliance side).

The current honor brackets are so small on the pve server, that you're gonna have to pvp pretty hard to reach r14 atm. You're gonna need more than 500k a week. You would probably need standing 1 every week from r12-14, and it will probably take you months.

Earnings on Small ServersEdit
It is possible for a server to have an NR too small to support even a single Rank 14 player in a given week.
If NR < 250, the Rank 14 bracket will contain NR * 0.002 < 0.5, rounded to 0 players. In that case, the top scoring player for the week will earn 12000 RP (top of bracket 13) rather than the usual 13000 RP.
This was observed over multiple weeks, including the week ending 23-May-2006, on Muladin/H. NR for that week was estimated to be 207, and the WS=1 player earned 12000 RP.
Theoretically, if a server has NR < 71, then the Rank 13 bracket will also contain no players. In that case, I expect the top WS=1 player will earn 11000 RP (top of bracket 12).


So as long as there is over 250 players in a given week ranking (more than 15 HKs) there will always be a rank 14. Source: http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Honor_sys ... 0_formulas) (Hint: this site also explains honor bracket "cap" just depends on the honor gained. Less people playing, the lower the honor needed to rank, unless you have a neckbeard PVPing 24/7 getting 500k honor a week, then that is the number to beat to get WS 1)

Edit: after checking realmplayers, it looks the bar is set for 400-500k honor weekly to get WS1.
