Thank you for caring about pvp. Next, a pvp server in retail. Please?
Thank you for caring about pvp
This is a bad change and needs to be looked over.
Players aren’t going to rank to 14 if the gear there obtaining is outdated and there are better pieces that coincide with AQ release + not having to pvp grind for it you need to release the r14 gear at the latest BWL release and even then i still think its a terrible idea.
Players should have the option to rank to 14 at the start of lvl 60 others aren’t forced to rank however you’ve already overhauled the ranking system and removed decay this essentially opens ranking to a large playerbase without the exclusive brackets and need of top tier pvp groups.
Please revert this change.

Any chance we can get lvl appropriate gear from running bgs so we have lvl 40 gear, right now the gear is 35, 45 & 60, it would be nice if we could buy lvl appropriate gear with the marks collected and there is zero lvl 25 gear. You promote PVP all the time, but when it comes to actually supporting those of us who prefer bgs to dungeons, we are like the lost ones, left out in the cold, please correct this for us, you completely eliminated pvp gear and any reason to pvp in retail, please don’t do that in SoD or in the other Classics, pvp was great fun back here and I would love it to be greater, thx.

Anyone know how much honor is needed for r4 and r5?
the Ranker addon will tell you exactly how much you need
I think r14 should b released b4 aq, during the war effort
By the time AQ40 come out the gear will be worthless at rank 14… I would highly recommend letting us get 14 a phase earlier, example being as shadow priest if you aren’t fixing the tiers have no sets until AQ40 and we must get warlord gear to help us in all aspects of the game. Please reward us not punish us. Thanks for listening.
With Blood moon event I went from Rank 3 to Rank 5 without stepping foot in a BG. Did 5 blood moons (so about 2.5 hours) and got my PVP cap for the entire phase.
Also scale back the phases a bit. Have Rank 14 gear come out in BWL so there is a little bit of a reward for this journey.
It in all likelihood will be I think they just meant the AQ40 patch which includes the war effort.
I just wish they would bring back partial ranks. Seems really crappy right now that it is “you get it or you don’t” I would say bring back partial ranks and increase the honor required to get higher ranks.
i never noticed this part until now. If your plan is to have level 60 be the same old raids from classic and add literally not one single new level 60 raid prepare yourself for the rightful outrage to come.
I think most people assumed max level would have SEVERAL new raids, and at the very least 1 new raid. There aren’t many people who want to do molten core for the 2930847293847293847th time again.
there are partial ranks… it starts with r4 i believe
R3 80% is where i got to last week, i think that’s the 1st partial
This is not classic. Pvp isn’t popular enough to warrant more dev resources in the early phases. But most importantly this is not classic.
RIP SoD PVP. We basically cap within a week of each phase. It already killed the entire PvP community on our server. As much as I enjoy SoD, there is zero incentive to play beyond the first one/two weeks of a new phase.
PvP needs to remain PvP. Right now, you can obtain max PvP rank and exalted with AB solely by killing gorillas in STV. As much as we enjoy SoD, messing with the core essence of PvP is really the worse move ever, IMO.
We’re then left with a poorly designed dungeon on a 4 days time gate? Meh, no, thanks. I work 50+ hrs a week and yet, reaching those caps were easily achievable within a week.
Releasing R14 gear at the same time as AQ40 just makes PvP gear irrelevant beyond the first few days, as there will be better gear already available.
If you need to gate PvP gear, gate it behind a grind that would serve as an incentive for people to actually play your game. You can also adjust PvP gear iLvL in BGs vs outside BGs. Or add a stats that make pvp gear only relevant in pvp scenarios. etc.
There are tons of better approach you could come with. They way you guys are looking at things right now is just lazy as heck, unconsidered, and it’s guaranteed to kill the entire PvP community.
Getting people to play your game should be your goal ultimately, not the other way around.
IMO you got it all wrong.
No, this is Patrick.

Looking at the most recent post on Phase 4, it mentions Rank 10 gear. Does that mean this original post is obsolete and Rank 10 will be available at P4 launch? Or will it still be tied to the opening of successive raids?
