Warlords of Draenor: New World PVP Zone

[heyaz]

Realize the numbers are fictional, but if conquest gear were to be anywhere near that level especially with PVP power bonus, they're going to have to make it a little harder to get than it currently is.

Say what you will - while gated PVP gear through arena rating had its issues along with every other grindy system implemented since vanilla, getting it handed to you by capping 2s with some random from trade chat, well, I that's no way to award any kind of superior gear. As much as I'd like my PVP gear to be useful, part of me realizes its trivial method of acquisition is why it is garbage. However I'm not a dev and don't have any solution to offer especially with the disparity of gear in world PVP vs raiders. Sometimes when I think about how much the gear sucks, I realize - they made it a free handout just for showing up, of course it's going to be crap.

In wrath at least I had to bust my ass in arenas to get the gated gear just as raiders did to kill bosses (yeah, they're not that hard, but still), now from a boxer's perspective, while you can't cheese 2s you can still just tank your MMR to nothing in 5s and get no-shows to cap, same with RBGs and just camp a node for 3 minutes and get loser points or get a no-show exploit team for all 400 at once. Yeah, that's skill. I should have 572 gear for that.
