let me show you the way!
first off understand at the lower levels alot of classes don’t have full tool kits and you might not be able to play the spec you want right away. for example if i want to level a prot war in bg’s its going to be a rough ride even with fully enchanted BoA’s.
next let me be the first to tell you there are pieces you can buy in the lower brackets but you’ll have to walk/ride there. belt and boots from there up to level 60 i believe. the boots have a movement speed bonus so it’s legitness.
at 60 slotted gear starts being introduced into the game and from there up at every old expansion level you can purchase the pvp gear pieces with slots. dont get too overly focused on these though because from 80-100 youll be leveling so fast you won’t want to purchase a new full set and gem/enchant it.
there are gems and shoulder enchants in both factions main cities you can buy with honor. use the shoulder enchants on your BoAs before they get too high and cant take the enchant. very important for every BoA slot this is how you’re supposed to use them. leg armor kits as well. there are sometimes random ones on the ah but if you have a leatherworker alt with the profession only leg enhancement (works for tailors and engineers too) it sticks on the BoAs when sent to alts.
once you hit 90 get a SOO (siege of orgrimmar) run. youll get some 130ish ilevel slotted pieces which will later become part of your Timewalking dungeon set of gear. also the trinkets from there are going to use for the next few levels in bg’s.
at 91make sure you train draenor engineering. youll be able to make shields gliders and stealthmans all from materials gathered in your garrison. the garrison is lame but level it up for more mats and free potions.
at level 100 scan the AH for bfa battle potions and use them after a saltwater. it’s phenomenal what can happen trust me. i nuke mobs of players like you would gnolls on a quest.
at 110 dont even try a bg until after you have completed your hoa quest. youll get a piece of azerite gear too and right here youll have a choice. start off bfa pvp with one azerite piece knowing once you hit 111 you might have 30k hp and will be facing 120’s syncd with full traits and 75k hp? or turn off your xp for a bit until you can get the other 2 azerite slots filled. stacking traits or not the main stat and stamina alone is what will keep you competitive up to 120.
also both archeology boa trinkets become active at 110 and you can send your alt boa legion leggo tokens and see what pops out! those are 265ilvl and 2 can be equipped if you
level up your research at your class hall.
