Leveling in AV? Also, what is the point of GB?

[NightfallSS]

Hello all, I have a few quick questions,

Once i hit level fifty one, is it possible (with the right profile/cc) to level primarily on AV BG? Is it slow, fast, or the same speed as an average grind script? Is it safer because theres so many people running around?

What is the best cc/profile for this if I'm a paladin?

Also, I know you get honor points instead of AV tokens, WSG tokens etc. etc. - is this a change wow made? I used to play a long time ago, and the "points" were specific to the BG

I know that was like four questions, sorry lol

Secondly, I'm tempted to look into Gather Buddy, however if Honor buddy can skin, pick herbs, and mine nodes while grinding, I dont see how GB is different, does it just mount up and go on a farming path?

Thanks in advanced!

GB can use flying mounts and is very basic to get the job of gathering done without much effort on your part.

I see, so say my level 40 toon that I've been botting got GB, and I got level 1 Mining and Herbalism, I could fire it up and the bot would take care of the rest?

Ok first it is possible to level with battlegrounds however av almost never pops anymore unless its is on cta. And the leveling speed depends on if it is on cta and how often your faction wins.

How safe is highly debated. I would not afk any battleground.

All battlegrounds points have been merged into honor points.

And finally gb is just for farming. And is best used with a flying mount in northernd or blasted lands.

how fast you level in AV (or any other BG really) depends on your BG's queue timers.. if you sit in Dalaran for 25 mins to get into a BG and lose in 5 mins, it's really not worth it...

Well you will need to download or make a profile but yes, I run honorbuddy and lvl herb/mine at the sametime then switch to gb at 80 after getting a flying mount

Worse if it takes you 45-50 minutes to lose.
