Are you looking to upgrade your PVP armor from so-so to INSANELY OVERPOWERED? Who isn’t?
As of today you can purchase the entire Arena Season 1 set of armor using Honor Points and Battleground Tokens. That’s an entire five piece set of Gladiator’s Armor that you can now get using your extra honor and tokens. For example the chest piece will now cost you 14500 honor and 30 AB tokens. It can’t get much easier then that to seriously upgrade your PVP gear.
And for those of us with a few arena points to spend, there are some insanely overpowered weapons now availble to go with our new insanely overpowered armor.
For example, are you a hunter? Have 1000 arena points to spare? Then check out the Vengeful Gladiator’s Waraxe. 386-580 Damage or 134.2 damage per second. (no, that’s not a typo), +62 Stamina, +15 Hit Rating, +46 Critical Strike Rating, +33 Resilience Rating, +92 Attack Power and it ignores 98 of your opponent’s armor. I could add a lot of Holy Cows and explanation points right here but I think the stats speak for themselves. Insane weapon for almost no cost in time or effort.
There are 13 Vengeful weapons available today for just 1000 arena points each.
Don’t have any arena points? You can get 1000 in 5 weeks even losing full time in a 2v2.
Simply make a 2v2 team, try your hardest or don’t, and stop at 10 games. You started your 2v2 team with a 1500 rating, if you lose approximately 15 points a game you will end with a ~1350 rating if you lose every game. That will net you over 200 arena points for the week. To be sure of where you stand do a search on google for arena point calculator and find one you like. Punch in your current rating and you’ll see exactly how many arena points you will get for that week.
When next Tuesday rolls around and you have your arena points for that week, delete the arena team and start over. Sign a new charter, sign your friend(s) up again and you’re back at a 1500 rating. Rinse, repeat as necessary.
Already spent all of your honor points on other items? That’s ok!
The average Alterac Valley battle now nets anywhere from 300-1000+ honor so you can really rack up honor very quickly in AV. The games now end sometimes even before the last two towers have capped. Those quick games equal quick honor and quick tokens. AB and WSG take a little more work but just remember: play D to hold what you have, support the flag carrier in WSG, and fight on the flags at all times not in the streets in AB.
Get into a groove, have fun and before you know it you’ll have a shiny new set of amazing PVP gear!
