PvP Season 12 Ends on December 1

Heads up! Here’s your two weeks notice that MoP Classic PvP Season 12 is coming to an end. In this region, the season will end:

  • Monday, December 1 at 10:00 p.m. PST

Have a fine fight to the finish!

Additional Information

  • Because Season 12 had an immense number of players, all of the flat cutoffs (that were announced before the start of Mists of Pandaria Classic) were exceeded in all brackets for this region. Therefore, the original percentages will be used.
    • Flat cutoffs for the number of R1 and Gladiator titles was intended to be a backup system, should a season have low participation, that would reward players who played at an elite level regardless of the number of participants.

Alt Player-characters

  • Having multiple alts in the Gladiator range no longer counts towards multiple slots when calculating the cutoff. For example, if you have 4 characters that are all Gladiator in 3v3, you only count as one spot. All of your characters that are above the cutoff range will receive the respective reward.

Season 13

  • Season 13 starts Tuesday, December 9 at 8:00 a.m. PST.
  • In Season 13, base Resilience will be set to to 64% in 2v2, 65% in 3v3, 66% in 5v5, and 65% in the open world (was 63% in 2v2, 64% in 3v3, 65% in 5v5, and 63% in the open world).
    • This matches the original Mists of Pandaria Season 13 base Resilience for 3v3 and the open world.
  • Season 13 Battle Fatigue will be set to 45% (was 40%).
    • This matches the original Mists of Pandaria Season 13 Battle Fatigue.
  • Maximum PvE item level in Battlegrounds and Arenas is increased to 496 (was 473).
    • This matches the original Mists of Pandaria Season 13 item level cap for PvE items.
  • 5v5 Arena wins now grant 400 Conquest (was 250) and losing a match now grants 120 Conquest (was 75).
    • This places RBGs above 5v5 in terms of Conquest points per match (with 750 in a win and 225 per loss), but gives 5v5 some extra appeal.
  • Glorious Tyranny weapon enchant no longer costs Conquest points.
    • Having this enchant locked behind a rating requirement and a Conquest Point cost felt excessive. This more accessible version of it makes Glorious Tyranny an enchant requiring rating purely for the Glow like the other rating gated enchants.
  • New Weapon Enchant formula added to the Honor Points vendors.
    • Enchant Weapon - Tyranny: Grants 600 PvP Power and reduces the duration of Disarm effects by 50%.
    • The rating-gated Glorious Tyranny enchant now costs a vellum with Tyranny enchanted on it.
  • Tyrannical Primal Diamond now costs 2000 Honor Points and is located on the Honor Quartermasters
    • It no longer requires 27,000 Conquest Points earned in Season 13 to purchase, and no longer costs 1,000 Conquest Points.

The worst PvP season in all of Classic, I’ve never seen PvP this awful. War/Mistweaver or War/Rdruid in 90% of the games. And the Classic team refuses to do any PvP tuning. No wonder 80% of PvP participation has disappeared in just 6 weeks.

But the damage is already done: I don’t plan on coming back for the new season, and my PvP friends won’t either. This PvP completely disgusted us with MoP Classic.

The server merge also killed the entire community aspect and all the WPvP that existed on Benediction and Faerlina. In short, a complete waste.

Fr thats what im wondering… The last season of cata they changed how things worked and now xunamate is tracking alts but its not factored into cut off because blizzard is giving no feed back theres nothing set in stone just word of mouth people are assuming its like how retail cut offs work based on what they did the last season of cata…

Zirene has said that Ironforge cutoffs are correct and alts will not take up a spot.

Do you have a post you can link?

It’s somewhere on his twitter from a month ago so feel free to find it.

Would love a response

Google says usually 1 week but up to not exceeding 2 weeks

Are they going to remember to announce the flat cutoffs? (or even that they said they were going to use them?)

Just say you’re bad at MoP bro. We get it.

GG guys. Ran into the flyhackers today conveniently 2 weeks before end of season. Happened last season end of season too. Seems like you guys didn’t care to patch this but to just ban the accounts involved. Take control of your game, this is getting out of hand.
On another note, you should really be more specific when addressing a mass player base.
A majority of players need clarification on the new parameters set around current arena titles and placements. Don’t sleep on this please, take some action.
