Are we not able to get honor sets yet?

I can’t seem to find vendors for s2 honor set. Is that something we’re only gonna be able to get next week when the actual season starts?

Not available yet.
Gear vendors will be the same.
They will replace the items they sell when the season starts.

Seems like a good thread to ask. A friend and I were discussing a few weeks ago. I’m thinking previous season conquest gear is as good as next season honor gear, he’s thinking the next season’s honor gear is better.

Anyone know which is correct?

Icyveins has a list of ilvls, prolly accurate:

PvP Gear in The War Within Season 2

We have the following types of PvP gear in Season 2 — Crafted, Honor, Conquest, and War Mode gear.

Gear Type	PvP Item Level
Crafted PvP Gear	652-678
Honor Gear	665
Conquest Gear	678
War Mode Gear	675

Honor gear can be purchased from Velerd located in the same room as Hotharn (see above for the exact coordinates). In Season 2, Honor gear starts at Item Level 597 and the item level increases in PvP combat to 665. It follows the Explorer track, and you must spend Honor on the gear.

Yes. New gear is always only available on SEASON start, which occurs the week AFTER the patch.
It will be the same next season and every other season after that.
