How do the arena changes 'kill' casual arenas?

Going to see if I can possibly get all the purp pvp gear in just 2 weeks.

On the subject of dead horses, I have made a ton of posts about this too!

Prepatch will make queues nearly instant, man. You only need like 40, 70, 20 marks respectively and like 66,500 honor for FULL High Warlord Gear after May 18th. That’s about 20-40 hours of BG depending on your winrate (remember, you get a mark for losing too).

EVERYBODY is going to be epic gearing their alts and boosts.

@Stonecastle-herod

5/5 HWL with weapon(s) will require about 66,500 honor and about 150 various marks.
FULL PvP gear (nearly every slot anyway) is 115,200 honor and 300 various marks.

With a 50% win rate it will take about 40 hours to fully gear a boosted character or alt through PvP. That’s reasonable in 2 weeks imo.

The real struggle would be regrinding it all to cap for the level 70 stuff. Better buy some Redbull.
