I completely agree with Mused. No one is being given anything. We don't have to play any less to get anything we just don't have to make the game like a job. We will still have to get through 7 heroics a week to get our valor points, and we will still have to be good enough to finish the dungeons. You think the casual players who don't optimize their spec or stats, and therefore take way longer to get through dungeons are going to have the patience to grind 7 heroics in a Saturday? Because having the endurance to marathon through 7 heroics is way WAY less hard core than logging in once a day for an hour. You don't even make any sense.

This change allows you trade the low end points for each other at a penalty. It will primarily be used by dps who aren't patient enough to wait for the misery that is the dungeon finder to get their justice points, but they will have to sacrifice faction rep to do it, and people who have maxed out on justice point gear, and want to get enough PVP gear to at least have some resilience when out in the world to give them a chance against that world pvp ganker. These are small things, but they make a huge difference in terms of quality of life. You can't get valor points from this, which would actually be a travesty. So get over it.
