I see alot of people saying the honor system is messed up and how it causes ganking and what not. Honor kills are when you kill someone green or higher. If you are in a group you dont even have to kill to get honor Kills. What it really comes down to are contruibution points at the end of the day.
You gain contribution points by healing, buffing,rezzing and dealing damage. If person A attacks person B and does 75% damage and Person C comes and finishess Person B off, Person A gets 75% of the total honor points while person C gets 25% of the honor points. So this is why Rogues and other high damage dealing classes get quick bursts of Honor points because they do lots of damage. But warlocks and other classes who use dots gain honor points steadly. They gain small amounts in large quantities. So it all balences out.
