Honorable Kills award honor properly again (byproduct of infrastructure changes from the DDoS)

HK's award exp again for warmode players (same as above)

Effects that trigger on killing blow now work on enemy players (like warlock soul shard generation)

The Gurubashi Arena coin is awarded again for defeating another player in the arena.

this has already been adressed several times

We try to respect our community through open communication and working our ass off to make the best server that we can. People will disagree on what that looks like and we knew that from the begining of this project.

# Honor not awarded for two honorable kills (2026-08-31)

**Character:** Shemp (Horde shaman, level 60). **Victim (both fights):** Aluma, level 60
Alliance hunter, guild "For The Horde". Location: Burning Steppes / Blackrock area.
**All times below are SERVER TIME** (my local time is server +2 h); unix epochs included for
exact matching. Logged client-side by an addon of mine. GUID legend:
`0x00000000000086A4` = Aluma, `0x0000000000000663` / "me" = Shemp.

**Claim:** `GetPVPSessionStats()` (today-HK / today-honor counters, sampled every 60 s)
did not move after either killing blow. These were my first two kills of this target today,
so diminishing returns cannot explain it.

| Kill | Death event (server time) | Local (CEST) | Epoch | Session counter before | Session counter after |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 05:25:54 | 07:25:54 | 1788153954 | 05:25:09 `hk=0;hp=0` | **05:26:09 (+15 s): `hk=0;hp=0`** |
| 2 | 05:33:02 | 07:33:02 | 1788154382 | 05:32:09 `hk=0;hp=0` | **05:33:09 (+7 s): `hk=0;hp=0`** |

Snapshot values, as returned by the client API at 05:33:09 server time: honor kills today = 0,
honor today = 0 (rank 9 "Centurion"; rank progress value also unchanged across all snapshots).

have combat log too if needed

I just noticed the Dalaran rep npc doesn't seem to offer rep rewards. Can this be fixed?
