Understanding pvp gear

So how do you do with tier sets and pvp?? I am mostly doing m+ and lower rating pvp content. My ambition is the second half of the season to push arena a lot.

How do you do gearing for m+ and pvp? Can we use somehow the same set for both content? My understand is that m+ related gear if used in pvp will cause us lose the buff we get in pvp when all our items are considered to be “pvp-suitable”.

I am playing only priest but I do want to do is to enjoy both disc and holy so I am not sure what is the best approach here.

Spam bgs get full honor gear, then slowely cap conquest doing world pvp caches/bounties, and make sure you do your daily bg wins and weekly pvp quests for extra conquest, you can also get world pvp gear with bloody coins and if you do the weekly quest you will get currency for epic piece aswell.

and where do we get tier set for pvp ?

Same place you get it for pve, the temple thingy near tyrs place.

you mean I need to use catalyst? Also how pvp gear works ? we can get all conquest items based on conquest points or we also need rating?

Conquest and world pvp gear epics, but in the end conquest is bis, and you don’t need rating to buy them, all of them have same ilvl in pvp combat.

This video should answer most questions:

If you do the PvP great vault rewards, every week you get a chance to get a PvE piece that has a tier-set bonus, this PvE piece will actually scale in PvP to a higher Ilevel as a bonus. For some reason you need rated honor to unlock those, while for PvE you can do just heroic dungeon and lfr…

In addition to vault you can manually upgrade certain pieces to PvE tier sets with the catalyst in tyr’s hold, if you do this with a PvP item such a gladiator or epic hellbloom gear, this newly created PvE piece will also scale ilevel in PvP.

Using the catalyst requires a currency, you only get 1 currency every 2 weeks. Next week you should be able to get 4 PvE tiers pieces because 8 weeks total have past since 10.2 release. This currency is passively awarded, so you too should have it.

Does not this make it too hard to get a pvp tier set both for holy and disc priest?

Nah, you get one set for all your specs now. If you change specs to shadow you get shadow set bonus, if you change specs to holy you get holy set bonus, etc.

The blook token gear is a mix bag of stats and I would only get the gear with the stats that needed… Ours has mixed Mastery, Crit and Haste… :person_shrugging:
