Plans for this weekend

[Scelesti]

***This is under the assumption you won't be able to buy vicious with honor this week***

So it's AV weekend. This means ridiculous honor.

At the same time, we can't buy vicious gear with honor...so what do?

My plan is to farm AV all weekend, convert my honor to JP whenever I get close to cap, and buying my BoA gear for my next toons(mages). If i get enough honor(8k * 1.5), I'll start to farm some of that nice new PvE gear available as I'm not yet geared enough to do heroics, and 333 content is a massive waste of time, imo.

This is a good chance to get any gear with Justice Points by converting from honor, especially if you're in the same situation as me and can't yet do heroic content because of lack of gear.

I also plan to cap my honor at 4k for next Tuesday when I can buy Vicious gear with honor...

So those are my game plans in the next week ahead....anyone got any other ideas?

Oh AV weekend! Nice! I'll be there practicing with my 4 dks. I was in my first BG last night and didn't do as bad as I thought I would. I was able to hold my own in more than a few situations, but I definitely need work. I think it will help when I add a healer to the group.

Nice! I just got my 3 DKs to 85 last week. I got a little practice in, and I felt I did pretty well, but I'm massively undergeared and have been embarassed a couple of times. Doing TB every day to try and get a 346 weapon. Full vicious will help out a lot.

and yes...AV WEEKEND. I get a growth in my pants just thinking about it.

you can buy the gear but not the weps. as far as i read it on patch notes,

[Scelesti]

Weapons are available from the vendor. You have to farm like 8k honor before you can buy it...

Not really sure if its bugged or what...I guess I'll find out later this weekend. I've only made like 2400 honor on my DKs so far, so time will tell...or if anyone knows of a post about it.

Nope that is how it was intended but I think it was more like 16-18k to unlock the weapons. Good for us if it is less.

EDIT: and do I get that right vicious gear is already available for honor? (EU is not patched yet so I cant check)

Season 9 Honor Point weapons will only be purchasable once a required minimum sum of Honor Points has been reached during the current season. For example, Vicious Gladiator's Pike costs 3400 Honor Points to purchase. """"However, players must first earn a total of 7250 Honor Points during Season 10 before they are able to purchase it.""""
Once the minimum sum of points required to purchase weapons is reached, all available weapons can be purchased for their listed costs. The point requirement is not reset once a purchase is made.
Weapon tooltips from the vendor will let players know how many more Conquest or Honor Points must be earned in the current season before the item can be purchased.


Then its bug if you can by then now becouse season 10 not started yet..... Ptr did not have any pvp vendors so i could not test it but the honor/conquest points you needed been lowered a lot. last few patchs

Guessing it will be easier for some multiboxers to get a kill now since they are nerfing 2 set bonuses so ppl cant get 2 x 400 resilience from it + full vicious gear :) cant wait to try ele shamans again, aswell as going for 1800 rating with my hunters :)

Try 1 DK + 4 hunters. Use DK as a tank, death grip a healer, strangulate then pewpew! Most teams try to focus the DK first since the hunters are stealthed :) pretty fun. Nailed two 1800 rated teams with this strat!

Season 9 '359 gear is available at the conquest vendor but for honor points. While the honor vendor offers 5 enchantments only. So unless thats a bug and gets patched out the plan is to upgrade the mages to 359 gear during the upcomming AV weekend (got two pieces already with honor that was farmed before the patch).

How to find out how close you are to being able to buy the weapon!

I farmed AV this weekend, it was amazing. I use a Prot Warrior, 3 BM Hunters, and a Shadow Priest. My main hunter picked up two offset pieces to be totally Vicious, and the others all picked up 5 pieces each. It was tons of fun. I was queing with guildies and we would have 8-10 of us in the same AV.
