So i realized that the pvp quest Weapons of Conquest only rewards two handers for completion. Seems legit , just another way to force players to play anything BUT single minded fury.
Yea, I REALLY want to have an excuse to use SMF because double Arathi maces looks legit.
Blizz just giving warriors the middle finger.
So I know the old standby for old Vault Rewards was Titan Fury to select Arms for 2-handers and SMF Fury to select Fury for 1-handers. May that be the possible issue or is it simply straight you shall play Titan…
You don’t get the option to “choose a reward” both rewards are two-handers. There is no option for one handed weapons. Serious over sight or complete neglect on blizzards part.
What I am getting at is what is your currently selected loot spec? If it is set to Arms that may be the reason why and the only way to test would be to drop the quest change loot spec and re-pick the quest. Like how the old vault junk worked for Titan vs SMF Fury Warrior drops.
I am/was Fury. I never change my loot spec to arms considering Fury does 1h and 2h wpns
Sadly, they smack you in the face when walking >_<
I love that so much! I always just imagine flailing about hitting myself and my enemy.
The quest rewards for the quest “Weapons of Conquest” are not a choice between 2 options. The rewards are a complete set of weapons for your current spec (regardless of loot spec).
I switched to prot and picked up the quest. The rewards I would get are a set of a 1h weapon and a shield.
I abandoned the quest, re-logged, switched to arms, and picked up the quest. The reward is a single 2h weapon.
I abandoned the quest, re-logged, switched to fury, and picked up the quest. The reward is a set of 2h weapons for TG fury. It didn’t matter if my loot spec was set to fury or arms.
The quest rewards seem to be determined based on your current spec when you pick up the quest.
I’m not sure what would happen if you were to do the quest, switch to prot, and then try to turn in the quest - would it remain a set of 2h weapons for TG fury (since you were fury when you picked up the quest) or switch to a 1h + shield (since you would be prot when you turned it in)? Prot would at least give you a 1h weapon, even if it comes with a shield.
That being said, not having the option for a set of 1h weapons for SMF fury is a problem. Fury needs reward options for both, as does any spec with multiple weapon type options (frost DK, bm/ww monks, etc.).
If they want to automatically determine relevant weapon quest rewards, one idea would be to look at the equipped weapons instead of only looking at the spec. You would get 1h weapon rewards for SMF fury since you have 1h weapons equipped and I would get 2h weapon rewards for TG fury since I have 2h weapons equipped. Either that or give us options for both 1h and 2h weapons and let us choose.
Thanks for experimenting, helps in the future to know how to approach quest rewards.

A lot of players are crafting Ascendance embellishments instead of getting the free weapon since it’s BiS. Then with either the boots/belt emebellishment that doubles the stat effects on the weapon.
This might be an option for you as SMF and BiS. Then switch to Prot for the quest and take the free 1hander as an off hand.

I crafted my 2 1h far sooner than i completed the quest. But either way having to do a lot of rigamaro to get the desired weapons seems a bit much. Thnaks for the reply.
I believe they changed how it worked since you posted this anyway. You now get 2 tokens with one handed weapons costing 1, and 2 handers costing 2*
*exception for fury warriors where 2 handers cost 1 each.
