Remove conq cap

11 weeks is lame. Having classes that need differet stats/gear for each spec makes it very boring to be locked into one with no option to change up unless u wanna level a whole new character and gear it differently.

8 weeks is plenty fine enough!

I guarantee if Blizzard removed all time gating people would still complain they have nothing to do.

Week 7 would be a solid time to remove the conquest cap and add the spoils of war, considering the ease of acquiring world PvP gear.

Yeah, week 11 is a bit overkill.

You could make the argument for 5 weeks. With how they like to kneejerk slaughter specs.

Would feel really crappy to spend a month gearing vers/mast and then they gut the spec and talents and you need to go haste/vers.

Only option then is play sub-optimal or level new toon of same class and regear it this path.

At least you can recraft heraldry pieces.

It’d be nice if buying a slot (lets say 875 conquest for chest) lets you buy alternative pieces in that slot for honor, though. “Hey man just make an alt or wait 3 months” isn’t a fun thing to hear when you wanna try a new build or spec early-mid season.

This exactly what they want you to do. Went broke gearing alts.

100% this would be great for everyone in that same situation

Buying nullstones and bloodstones for 3 pieces of jewelery per alt not including sockets. :dracthyr_a1: :money_with_wings:

I really should stick to 1 or 2 characters but I find it hard not to alt hop. Might have to tank mmr on healer and just farm honor in shuffle.

Wasn’t that a thing in MoP? Get a certain amount of conquest then you can buy it all with honor after

Just don’t bother with min/maxing your non-main

Yeah, but it was, like, cap conquest fully.

Maybe it was just because the seasons were super long that it didn’t feel that bad

Ya, it’s CRAZY how you can craft, like, pants and legs for the cost of 2 wqs or spend 30k on rings and neck

I feel that the cap has more cons than pros overall, especially with how fast you can get PVP gear these days.

tbf it’s actually easier to mess up your main since that’s the character you play at the start

I have an alt mw and its stats are so much better it’s not even funny. Kins is dog

It heals for probably 5% more and it doesn’t even have any gems or enchants

Also catalyst charges and the free 1600/ksm/aotc piece requiring you to choose feels less than ideal.

this was discussed and mentioned a long time ago before TWW even came out. week 11 is commonplace for conq uncaps, specifically for new build launches. conq cap will more than likely be week 6-8 from every season going forward (after a build launch). you can look up the historical data for yourself.

edit: I didn’t read any of the replies; only the OP so if this is redundant you can disregard

Then WW superior because their tier is garbage, checkmate
