PVP gearing is easy?

Community General Discussion
22

I don’t think looking at top end players is that good of a measurement to tell how easy gearing is.

Okay Limit had average ilvl of 221 when killing sire. But doing 3 weeks of non stop split raiding is not what I personally would call easy.

I think pve vs pvp gearing is not too different. I personally find getting the same ilvl loot harder in pvp than in pve (1800 rating vs m10).

But on the other hand you have to keep in mind that pvp gear is upgradeable later and you can target slots.

I just don’t think looking at mythic raiders and top 100 pvp players really gives you much info on how easy gearing is.

First week = Heroic week
2nd week = 1st mythic week (limit 9/10)
3rd week = 2nd mythic week (limit 10/10)

217 ilvl in almost full pvp gear. It would probably take months to get that from raiding and m+ alone.

Most people understand that after first comes second

U mean after first week comes “the first week after first week”

Anyway my point stands :call_me_hand:

They weren’t, but anyway.

They aren’t that high ilvl because of mythic raiding alone. All those players have done many heroic splits and are wearing multiple pvp items as well as 226 BoEs. Pvp is a large factor for their high ilvl.

31

Im not sure what that means but u probably have experience.

But dont u mean First after First after First omega exercise :thinking:

Also if u keep trying to insulting people u might get suspended from the forums :worried:

yes they were, you can check from raid progress. Raid avg ilvl was 221 while downing boss. Lightee tank was at ilvl 222.7ish, several weeks later, still higher than the highest pvp players who only do pvp, and significantly higher when compared with current gear

33

On the last day of the first mythic reset (so basically after the first week) Limit got stone legion world first with an average ilvl of 215.06, but it’s whatever really.

But that is exactly my point, Lightee is also 2.6k rated. Why are you surpised that people who did absolutely everything including m+, heroic splits, mythic raids and high end pvp are better geared than people who only do 1 of those things?

I’m not saying there isn’t a discrepancy. I think the loot situation for both pve and pvp has issues, I am just pointing out that saying “world first raiders are higher ilvl than people who only pvp” isn’t really an accurate metric since those world first players are all wearing like 3-4 pvp pieces.

I think we can all agree that everything is pretty easy when we just sit here just looking at top players gear.

36

u need to be a Duelist to get ilvl 226 pvp gear. Atleast it has Mastery/Ver on the gear what increses raw damage/heal output …

37

you’re telling me that 3k rated player, blizzcon champ is getting rekt by pve noobs? :joy_cat:

@OP, characters from Limit, Echo etc. engage in all 3 “types” of content to gear up their characters. Naturally, they’ll be better geared, and faster geared, than an “I only PvP” person. You can check many of their ratings/equipped gear and you’ll find plenty of evidence of PvP simply because it was very good for targeting certain slots for their RWF progression.

System is working as intended. People who participate in varied content are more rewarded than someone who pidgeon-holes themselves by choice. There is no problem here.

you’re comparing mythic raiders to a pvp only person?

The mythic raiders not only do split raids and weekly dungeon runs, they also do rated pvp.

What a ridiculous comparison.

what do you mean easy
cant compare the two
unless those you refer to them running more than 1 content choice
also theres the boes

Im comparing the world’s very best PVPers to mythic raiders who were better geared after running one week mythic raid :smiley: They were indeed carried to 2.1k rating by a blizz con tournament player. However there is 1k rating difference between 3.1k, the very top, and 2.1k rating :D. Maybe blizzard should add some extra conquest points for the top 0.1% :smiley:

Their one week of mythic raiding is still worth more than all these weeks of PVP at 3k rating :smiley:

Shhh!!! The game is not balanced around 2v2! And it’s not balanced around 3v3! And not balanced around duels! And not balanced around PvP! And not balanced around Torgasts! And not balanced around classes! And not balanced around specs!

The game is balanced around… around… SHUT UP, BILLY! JUST SHUT UP!

LAWL! What a nuup! Clearly L2P issues! Did you forgettened to haved interuptened thy Mortal Strikes??

43

I didn’t talk about stone legion did I? That is not the last boss.
Lightee was not 2.6k rated when the last boss died, he was 2.1k rated. And he had pvp weapon and shield, still ilvl 223

Idk why you have to be such a dick on every post ever, who hurt you?
