PVE gear in bg's

I have to ask, what’s happening with pve gear in bg’s…its almost as if no one gives a you know what…then your 15 minute queue is really a waste of time, it’s not fun. Loss after loss cause people have no idea or they are in low level pve gear.
My question is why can’t i go into a raid or dungeon in my green pvp gear? why?
I get that not every game will be won but when stupidity and laziness is the main cause of losses, i think i’m over this game and the abuse. I put alot of years into this game, it’s sad it’s come to this

This is a valid concern, but the forum trolls are going to hit you with the usual “let people play how they want” & " Lol skill issue" responses. People that queue group content, BG’s or otherwise, in inadequate gear should be placed in their own separate causal queues against bots.

Tbf, you do have to do PvP to get honor to get PvP gear, so I give them the benefit of the doubt.

I use my pve tier in bgs but that’s it.

You are just as useless in a full set of honor gear.

Reminder that Battleground Blitz will scale up PvE gear to slightly below honor set ilevel.

The worst is I have to do m+ garbage content to upgrade my conq gear for pve . I do do pve but the idea of not being able to use honor to upgrade my gear is BS

PVE gear can be fine, good or even bis in PVP.

I can see a gear with no Versatility and crafted to be 489ilvl in PVP with the crest to be a decent upgrade. For augmentation, I could go full PVE stats almost.

It would suck if they allowed pve gear to be the same as conq gear. But not vice versa. Blizz always tries this and it never works. Ever

PvE gear can be 489 ilvl just like conquest gear is in PvP, depending on specs it can have better stats/stat weights too. Doesn’t seem to be a problem though.

Does that multistrike stat from dawn pieces work in pvp? :dracthyr_a1: Zappy stick from earth dragon works but it’s nerfed by 70% or something but doesn’t eat into stat budget.

It does, tried it on my feral. Hits like a wet noodle though

Sure, but it’s a free stat. Do you know how much extra it did?

like .8% of my overall. think hit for 2k a tick and ticked for like 150 times?

Okay, spiffy. I was figuring it’d be in the range of 0.5% to 1%. :dracthyr_yay_animated: Thank you.

They should bring back resilience as a stat. Then it would feel like actual PvP and they could start getting rid of scaling and hidden math

I’m talking about low ilvl pve gear, i mean survivability with 200k health isn’t going to happen…

It takes like one afternoon to get full honor gear.
