They are linked so removing one removes the other.

They don’t need to be though. Literally yesterday you could not purchase any conquest gear and could only purchase honor gear. The items weren’t even on the vendor.
Spoken like a true PvE andy not realising the valor vendor was also bugged and people bought tier 11 for free and a bunch of BoE items and listed them on the AH.

Am I fried or did something similar happen when we went from Vanilla to TBC with the honor gear / honor vendor? I think honor was CRAZY bugged for like. A day / a huge block of time and people had like full 5 set blue honor gear and some off pieces (Which at the time was a COLLOSSSSSSSSAL lead advantage.
Unfortunately, I don’t think they did anything about this and it kinda !@#$'ed up the 1st arena season of classic. (If I am remembering correctly?)

are you referring to tbc classic? That wasn’t a bug, people just pre-farmed honor in the prepatch since they said they wouldn’t reset it.
The problem with tbc classic launch was the BG queue times for horde. It was something like 10-20 hours of BGs per piece of gear when you factored those times in.

yeah I am referring to TBC classic. But I think the honor was like stupid bugged for a hot minute and people farmed ABSURD amounts of honor and were able to pre-afford a bunch of pieces and then it got fixed.

Except they are.
Correct but they have to remove the Conquest vendor to fix the issue which means they need to remove the honor vendor. They are connected. They both arrived at the same time. Whether 1 vendor had items or not doesn’t matter.
This is a tricky fix gonna take time which is why both were removed since they are connected and the bug was up for awhile.
@kaivax any chance we could address the issue that people bought gear with uncapped conq before y’all were able to figure out how bugged the game was?
Will the gear be rolled back, or are we just cooked if we didn’t have a chance to intentionally lose games to farm conq fast when the bug was discovered?

Cata Esport? Are you kidding me. You cant make Esport unless you give all players access to all gear, enchants, gems…all proffesions. If you want Esport you need all be in BiS gear, i mean all players! Or it is not Esport at all then it is those who have the best gear wins.
WoW can never be a Esport!

based on what?
Here’s the definition of esport, please tell me which part excludes Arena, this is like getting mad that curling is a sport.
“esport, noun
a multiplayer video game played competitively for spectators, typically by professional gamers.”
See where I’m from we have this thing called a duck test.
So you guys bout ready to hire more for the classic team yet?

ive seen people mentioning the honor gear… they are making it impossible for people that are behind to get caught up now. everyone has to do nothing instead of continuing the grind in any way. how will they handle this?

You could chain queue Wintergrasp for huge honor and the offpieces weren’t rating locked as they should have been.

Esports ruined this game. Arena was also a huge mistake since it’s not MMO PvP. They really lost focus on how good PvP could of been if Arena never happened. Real shame.

if you can’t reroll the gear, please ban the character that went over the cap by the amount thy went over, for example, anyone in the 4k-7.9k can’t play till next week reset, anyone who went over the 8k-11.9k should have to wait for 2 weeks reset, and anyone who went over 12k, just give them a month ban for over exploiting.

You developers working on classic aren’t fit to work a shift at mcdonalds. You should not have the jobs you have. Resign.
I get your ego is obliterated because no one plays the version of the game you created & youre forced to upkeep someone elses work for your career, but you are the most incompetent group of people outside of politics in this country.

Isnt it always the case when it comes to classic main expansions? or it’s because the classic team is still under very short number of people working and their hands are full?
Here I hope for not another “50% exp fiasco” where they made a bunch of restarts and none of them did anything but disrupt the experience…
