Where's the PVP gear?

WoW Classic Season of Discovery
1

The gear that gives you extra spell damage – where is it? How come there’s no alternative route to spell damage gear? The only way to get it is raiding. This means you can have no PVP focused guilds because there’s no path to gear power through PVP. Such a guild would get steamrolled non-stop by guilds that raid.

So this is like retail where you are just forced into keys or raids in order to gear up. One of the crowning features of classic is that there are two routes to getting great gear. The PvP route and the PVE route.

But there is only a PVE route in SoD. Specifically, raiding. I have to be a nonstop raider, or I will be completely inconsequential in PvP. This really should be addressed.

SoD treats PVP like a side novelty that you do in between raids. It’s retail philosophy and a very bad direction for classic.

Raid or die, it’s the classic way.

I mean, it’s not tho cause you can get great +dmg gear from just pvping in about the same time you’d get good gear from raiding. There is no pvp route in SoD tho. It’s just a side novelty like it is in retail.

They need to make an equalized gearing path through PvP.

In retail you can completely gear out in PvP gear without setting foot in a dungeon or raid. Your best PvP gear only comes from PvP.

So SoD is the exact opposite.

I get your frustration though. Be nice to have more PvP gear available through WSG rep.

The fact that there’s actual strong spell damage gear this early on is surprising enough.

True casters should be nerfed

Someone in PVE raid gear will obliterate a player in the PVP gear. The pvp gear yes is obtainable through pvp but is absolute dogwater.
