Oh god, the PvP ranking bullshit grind. Yeah, you almost had to account share to get the top ranks. Back in Vanilla, two of my IRL buddies did the HWL grind. It was different from the Arena rankings grind, but still brutal. The last 3 weeks were nearly 24/7 to move up, and that's only because we had an organized server that had a list of who was next in line to get HWL and enforced weekly caps to make sure someone didn't grind 24/7 and miss a rank.

I stopped at Centurion, because fuck all that. I also wasn't good at PvP.

Honestly, I loved that kind of meta gaming, all the backdoor deals, even across factions. The drama when some group wouldn't honour the list or agreements (Been on both sides of it).

I made rank 13, luckily I already had a better weapon from raiding, so I could skip the last one. Good times.
