how many useful uses of honor do you get out of being knight?

i had an hour to waste, so i tried a scorp spawn. lvl 1 and 2 went fine and fairly fast.

lvl 3 i started at knight of honor. i know i was knight because it said something like i'd progressed as far as i could in this virtue.

i was waiting for the switch to dread spiders/matriarchs so i could run off and honor. got lucky and wasn't stuck in a zerg of terathan. offscreened, honored, came back, and started picking off the dreads and matriarchs one by one as fast as i could.

i made good progress but then honor ran out on me. i had to deal with it for 5 minutes ("you must wait 5 min to embrace honor again"). it was slower, but i'd already killed a lot so i was safe-ish as long as i was smart.

my 5 min were up and i got to embrace honor again. this time it didn't last very long. i embraced again, and it barley lasted a minute.

i know each level of honor will last longer than the one below it. i was just really surprised that being knight only afforded me one lengthy session. the other levels just didn't do the job. it must have used all my level 3 honor for that one long one or something...

does tihs accurately reflect your experiences?

i ended up getting mephitis to pop, but then server went down on me :eek: i took too long, unfortunately

I don't usually use honor at spawns, I'm trying to get all the spawn aggrod to me so I can whirlwind.

Pretty sure every Embrace uses one gem of Honor.
Knight level only has 1 gem.

You get one use at Knight. After that you are a Follower.

This really isn't what Honor was intended for. There are only a few situations that I will willingly use up a "dot" of Honor on:

1. Going through the desert on the way to key for Dreadhorn.
2. In case of death when I self-rez using Sacrifice so I don't get rez killed.
3. To get back to my corpse after rezzing if it's in a bad spot.
4. Selective Taming for a new high end pet (4.0 or higher rating).

That's about it.
