New PvP Gear?
Wolfie — Mon, 10/06/2008 - 14:27
Does anyone know if Blizzard will still be releasing the new PvP gear now that they are not going to reset honor/rating/marks? If so, does anyone know where I can find a sneak peek?

Well if you just want the
saedo — Mon, 10/06/2008 - 14:41Well if you just want the sneak peak, they're "out" already. 3 full sets worth.
Search on WoWHead for these:
"Savage Gladiator" - Blue set no rating required
"Hateful Gladiator" - Purple set, low rating required
"Deadly Gladiator" - Purple set, high rating required
There's also the crafted set so anyone can start with something before gunning for one of the above.
I only really know the leather melee one atm "Eviscerator's"

Thank you for the replies,
Wolfie — Mon, 10/06/2008 - 15:33Thank you for the replies, but I was referring to the honor items they were going to add as an "honor dump" when they had planned to wipe honor.

The plan is probably similar
Shihli — Mon, 10/06/2008 - 14:33The plan is probably similar to what they've done in past arena seasons ...
Release it as people progress through PvE content so that one won't offset the other.
The idea that I have heard was that since they are not resetting honor/arena points/marks, the costs at lv. 80 for the new honor/arena gear will be *MUCH* more expensive than current lv. 70 gear.
