Blizzard addresses PvP gearing, but still misses the mark

Post-Legion PvP, and really the entire game, is different than it was pre-Legion. We’re striving to make a PvP gearing system that balances character progression with fairness, rewarding players who improve over the course of the season with noticeable power increases that can be overcome through skillful play.

There is no way to balance “fairness” when PvE gear progression for rated players is the goal. This massive gear gap cannot be overcome with “skillful play”.

This statement just tells us that they’re willing to drive PvP permanently off the cliff because they want top rewards for top players, and don’t care if anybody else is playing.

I understand that blizzard does not want to change up gearing in the middle of a season, that could be disastrous.

This will be disastrous anyway.

No one, and I mean no one that I have heard of anyway, is asking for the honor buff you are presenting.

Isn’t it the case that elite PvPers want to upgrade their gear faster, and this will facilitate that?
