2.0.1 PvP honor/reward system and Xpac

Is it just Blizz forum fanboi blathering or are they going to change the reward system when TBC arrives? Forcing us into a grind frenzy to aquire PvP rewards?

I'm not looking for a flame war, if I did I'd post on Bizz. Since it seems you don't need to get PvP rewards, this shouldn't concern you. So please say something constructive or stfu.

Huh? If you don't want to start a flame war, why would you tell someone to stfu?

Why exactly do you "need" Rank 12-14 PvP epics in TBC? I am trying to understand your logic here.

For someone who does not want to start a flame war, you are pretty cruel towards a person asking you what you meant about "forcing" someone to PvP.

And PvP items, rank 14 and such will make it "easier" for you to level in TBC. It is not a requirement or it will state so in the box, example: Tier 2+ or Rank 13+ geared characters only.

But no, if you have crappy gear, like really crappy gear (Level 60 wearing level 40 greens) then yes, you will have a very hard time leveling. This is a given and it is nothing new to the game. We all know that having better gear can make a huge difference in damage taken and damage dealt.

Hope it answers something.

Other than to make leveling/grinding faster there is no "need." From what I am told the level 60 epic you get now will be replaced in about 4-5 levels.

And there is no need for vulgar language here spoiler, and what Ryste is asking is a legitimate question.

too much coffee today. Other peoples "need"'s may be very different from yours, personally I have no time to "raid" therefore I have no other way to "aquire" any "epics". I thought here I might get some helpful info from people who could extrapilate from my above statement that I have heard some rumors that there will be a change to the newly current system. IF there was to be a change, this would mean all the people who have worked hard to get these "need"ed items might get screwed. Personally I would like to be able to play my average hour or so nightly, happily slapping Alliance around knowing that I was working towards something rewarding, at a pace that doesn't make this "game" feel like work. And if you don't "NEED!!!111" a full set of HWL/GM items, please delete your acct.

You could be a bit clearer and far less combative. It is not too easy to figure out what you are asking here.

If you are asking if the Honor system that is in play now will remain at level 70 the answer is yes. The rewards from that system will not, however, be as good relative to the raid gear as the current HWL stuff is. It will be more along the lines of the R10 armor / AV weapons. In order to get PvP gear that is on par with the raid PvE gear you will have to form a team and compete in the rated Arena combat. No one has any definate answers as to how quickly you will aquire gear with your weakly arena points yet.

I agree with you "need" means differently to different people. How come you didn't explain what your "need" means in your first post? Do you assume people who answer your post will have the same difinition of "need" as you do?

I can not tell what is going on in your head if you don't express it.

After reading this post I am still not sure why the need of HWL items and what does that has to do with BC? (at least, your questions are still too ambigious for me to give a good answer to.)
