Getting Honor 3, 4 and 5 puts us at Honor 2 Checkpoint 1, 2, and 3 respectively.
But at each checkpoint we are supposed to get Key fragments.
I didn't get any key fragments, but instead just started at the higher checkpoint.
Doesn't that just mean we get less rewards overall by the time we reach Level 5 again or am I missing something? I feel like I just got punished for being an honorable player but let me know if I'm wrong.
I felt the same way (honor 5). Especially because I'm always thirsty for keys as I earn boxes way faster through S ranks than I do key fragments with honor (didn't even get all my boxes open from S7 playing regularly).
I read that the reasoning is that honor 5 rewards are "better" and repeatable. So even after you hit 5 and gain the initial reward for it, you continue to earn the higher level rewards sooner and therefore more overall.
I believe that Higher honor still increases the amount of random key drops unless i derped on something? So you'd miss a few 1 time rewards but you get random keys more and the repeating milestone rewards as well.
