Anyone know if arena points reset at the end of the season or the beginning of the next? Usually there's a week cooldown between them, i can't remember if i can still spend points/interact with vendors or if all the points reset.

Also, blizz said arena 7 would end as soon as Jan 19th but i've not seen a second post saying that it will be the 19th for sure.

you will get arena points tonight, and you can spend them next week, and then next Tues they will reset at maintenance and new season will start.

AFAIK

We are currently planning to end Arena Season 7 as early as January 19. At that point we will go through our normal process to determine who is eligible for the end-of-season rewards. This process should take approximately one week. It's very important for players who feel that they may be eligible for the arena-specific titles and/or Relentless Gladiator’s Frostwyrm to refrain from transferring their character to another realm until after Arena Season 7 ends.

The following Arena Season will not begin for at least one week after the current season ends. During this time between seasons, all rated matches will be turned off and only skirmishes will be available. When Arena Season 8 begins, all team ratings, personal rating, and arena points will be wiped, but matchmaking rating and honor points will remain.

Prob won't know until tomorrow if it ends as early as tomorrow, which is silly.

I hope new season comes with some new WG gears. I got too many marks saved up. And I think only gloves and back were not covered with previous WG gears. So I am guessing 245 +hit glove and 245 + hit back?

i have an expert question:

anyone has knowledge if i'll keep any arena title-giveouts like "duelist, rival, etc"
if i do a faction change now, before the new season starts?

(i doubt it, but maybe there's a chance it's already saved to the char, like MMR :-)

edit:
sry my bad... it's only about the achievement not the title,
and if i'll lose the giveout if i do the faction change now.

Q. Do I get to keep my title forever?
A. The Challenger, Rival, Duelist and Gladiator titles are redistributed at the end of each season based on your team’s performance. So for example, if you get a Gladiator title at the end of season 7, when season 8 ends you will get a new title based on your performance specifically for season 8. The only title that is permanent is the one awarded for the #1 ranked teams each season.
