So earlier I made a forum post talking about how much that set sucked, and I had about a half dozen people call me:
Stupid
A troll
Etc
And generally attempt to make fun of me. They claimed that the phase 6 version of the blue pvp set was being released now during phase 2. I’m not able to log in to check the pvp vendors, can someone confirm that the blue set is indeed the phase 2 (weaker) version?
no one knows for about another 3-4 weeks as the vendors are behind a door that you have to be rank 7 to get inside. If blizzard released the updated blue pvp gear, it would destroy raiding as the blue gear is pretty much better than T1
It’s about what that blue set would do to the entire community
Like someone else said, it is completely 100% better than the T1 set, and for my class, many pieces are better than the T2/BWL variants (chest, shoulders, gloves, legs, etc). What this would mean is that all of a sudden the meta would shift to where it would require pvp grind in order to maximize raid dps for just about everyone
It would be a huge change. Raiders would complain, moderate (non-hardcore) pvp’ers would celebrate
The first grand Marshall(s) on my server in vanilla was a shadowpriest/rogue duo. I distinctly remember that they were rank 12 at the launch of wsg. I guess they got #1 and #2 honor every week
I dunno what else to tell ya. /shrug
Edit: there is no minimum about of honor required per rank. It is strictly a comparison of you vs the rest of the server. I am amazed at how many people get this wrong
