Honor Weapons?

Why don’t we have PVP weapons to purchase with honor yet?

When did we ever in original Lich King?

when did we ever have previous season gear for so cheap, no reason not to have the weapons available.

community knows gear with rating is bad for PVP, so is lack of weapons.

These are two completely different issues - one sees existing gear being sold for a cheaper price, while the other would see them having to create gear.


Do I believe we should have access to some of the lower arena-level weapons for honor? No. We never did.

It sure is, as far as arena is concerned, rewards connected to current rating are great, but those rewards should not be gear.

BG’s on the other hand…run what you brung.

IMO arena in terms of gear should be a level playing field.

If we have access to 213 weapons through H+ content, how is arena not an even playing field in terms of PvP weapons?

That change happened in Cataclysm.

H+ weapons come from PvE
H+ weapons have 0 resil
This thread is about buying weapons with honor.
Please let me know if you have anymore questions.

Thanks.

This would hold credibility if players didn’t use PvE weapons and certain items for PvP in ICC patch.

What is the lack of credibility?
As far as I can tell, what your saying is-

That I’m not wrong.
That this will continue to happen, and get worse thru ICC.

I’m saying given the available PvP weapons and the weapons from Heroic+, it IS an even playing field inside arena.

Weapons from Ulduar, and rating requirement arena points weapons are superior to H+ 213’s.

No, it is not a level playing field.
Is all I’m saying.

Savage (honor) weapons have always been in the game files.
They chose because ReAsOnS not to put them on a vendor in classic.
Probably to force people to pve.

They were never in the game past 2008’s Beta.

Cherry picking hypocrite. There are dozens of things not in wrath that are in wrath classic. Get your head check.

“Cherry licking…”?

Also, how am i hypocrite?

We’re far beyond the point of “nochanges.” They should just go ahead and put honor weapons in.

This. It’s pretty jarring not being able to buy honor weapons after being able to in TBC.
