Sounds like the latest is an honor system?
Everyone starts the new system with level 2 honor, so if you see someone below that it means they’ve already dropped below the baseline
“The big change is that each player can now only honor one teammate; a shift that helps make each honor feel more weighty on both the giving and receiving ends”
Key fragments now ONLY drop through honor. Keys are part of an in-game crafting system and you use them to open chests. Your honor level dictates your key drop rate, so from 2 and upwards it’s the normal rate, if you drop to level 1 it’s a lot worse and if you go to zero (dishonored) it’s nothing.
Basically incentivizing niceness through making “be nice” part of the reward system in the game?
