This is a guide on how to farm for your S1/offset epics without the bots.
1) Always do the daily. The honor you get from this is worth a game or two. Even if your battlegroup does not win the daily often it is still worth it for the marks. (More on those later)
2) Always do the BG weekends. These effectively double your honor. The AV ones are the absolute best 1k honor a game at times.
3) AV is your friend. Doing AV will net you a good 300-500 or so honor.
4) Do not be afraid to /afk/Alt+F4 out if it is going to last more than 30 or so minutes. It is better to take the deserter debuff than to waste time doing a BG that is a lost cause.
5) Every 3 marks turn them into the BG daily person. This allows you to get almost 1k honor for the 3 turn ins.
6) Be sure to spread out the BG's you do so that you can do number 5 as often as possible and not get bored.
7) Profit off the epics you get.
