4.2 PTR PVP Discussion

• The minimum cap on Conquest Points earned per week is now 1500 at 1500 or less Battleground rating. The maximum cap remains 3000 at 3000 or more Battleground rating. The cap continues to scale non-linearly between those two points.
• The game now separately tracks different Conquest Point caps for Battlegrounds and Arenas. The cap for Arena rating will always be 2/3 of the cap for Battleground rating at any given Arena rating. Players may earn a total number of Conquest Points per week equal to the higher of these two caps, but once players have reached the cap for either Arenas or Battlegrounds, they can no longer earn Conquest Points from that source. Conquest Points from Battleground holidays only count toward the total Conquest Point cap.

so arena for 66% of your points and random bg's each day to try to make of the difference?

Hopefully they'll allow you to get all your Conquest Points from Random BGs in 1 day. Like they allow you to do for valor in Heroics. If they don't, it really goes against what they've said recently about wanting players to play everyday.

If you haven't noticed this change is to bring in line PvP with PvE. Currently you can only get part of your valor cap from Heroics, and part from Raiding.


Edit: I've commandeered this into a 4.2 PVP PTR thread.
