This thread seems to indicate is was intended… (scroll down the comments)
Feels bad man… I’m in the 2100 range and still only get a 400 level item token. I haven’t needed a 400 piece of gear for some time… They really need to boost this turn in to match the chest level rewards and not the end of match rewards seeing as how it takes ~3 weeks using all your bonus roll coins to acquire 10. I’m just gonna keep sitting on my coins hoping they fix this to make it more useful.

Because then pvp would be fun again.
They let the PvE players that recieved the Taloc transmog weapon at the incorrect Ilvl keep it. They need to do the same here.
Coins didn’t get removed between seasons so you could stockpile them, but tying them to rating makes it a big who cares, because it would take several weeks into the season for ratings to get to mythic level of gear returns and you still need to acquire the current season item to upgrade. There is just no reason they can’t hot fix these to match the chest rewards at this point.
The ability to stockpile is not a reason for this. Even if someone did, they’d still have to loot the conquest turn-ins over multiple weeks, achieve rating and then upgrade.
It would still be easier/ faster to gear through raiding, but it would have made PvP more straight forward and comparable in power.

It should be a god damn iLvl 425 minimum. I love my boots. I hate PvE but I was forced to do it. Nobody should have to go through what I did pugging for gear. Nobody.

to get the right stat weights and stuff in pvp for season 2 would be impossible, season 1 the gear ing was good ish but the coin should be one choice at a perfect stat weight (in your opinion) at 400 with chance to titanforge or whatever.
Wish I was surprised by this level of incompetence.

That’s hilarious. There’s no incentive to pvp anymore. No vendor, RNG drops (or no drops at all) and the drops you do get is gear you don’t want/need.
The only decent gear I get is from doing the 7th legion “instances” every 2 weeks. My warrior got 425 pants. I nearly pooped in my own when that happened.
That must be like what doing dungeons is like. I wouldn’t know as I don’t do them. They’re boring as hell to me.

Not really. End of dungeon rewards suck too. Loot only comes from raids, chests, and the lottery of titanforging now.
I believe this is a dishonest cover story. Check for yourself Jan 24th QnA 24:23 from Ion himself. Unless intent is different from LEAD GAME DIRECTORs intent. Somethings not quite right

I’m trying to not be cynical here, but it really shows the disconnect with development on PvP. So many things over looked, uncared for, and ignored makes stuff like this so obviously glossed over.

We can see the no incentive with lack of participation too. Only comps I face now are flavor of 8.1 since they stopped doing fixes till the next patch.

If there’s no further evidence that Blizzard hates PVP this is it. You can PVP all you want but if you want to be able to compete in PVP, you MUST PVE – long, hard and often.
People actually have lives. No one has the time to grind PVE weeks and weeks just to be able to PVP.

I dont mind grinding PvE. I enjoy both. But at this point, without the trophy, there is no way to realistically gear through PvP. Only shot is to get lucky on 3 to 4 slots, rest is PvE. And that is sadface.
