Why is mythic ilvl boosted but not Honor gear?

Blizzard just increase item level loot from mythic dungeons. Yet they leave PVPer 20 ilvl behind.

Why would you go and increase an already far more powerful gearing meachanic than pvp?
We were promised that we could gear similarly to PVE by only doing PVP. Yet, I’m capped with 15K honor which I have no use for. I can’t buy any conquest gear to upgrade as it is being locked behind conquest cap. Honor gear was only relevant for the first two weeks. Any further upgrade is locked behind renown 22. 22! Why is not mythic also locked behind renown 22? You can easily acquire 197 gear from Mythics now, why not do the same for honor gear?

To even things out you should only be able to get 1 mythic item per week. Just let that sink in, one mythic item per week, the PVE community would go rampage.
So here i am representing the PVP community. I do not enjoy this, I do not enjoy people only playing PVE having 20-25 higher ilvl than me. They are a nightmare i BGs and Arenas since stats have such big impact. These exact things are the opposite of what we were promised.

PvP is lower priority than Pet battles imo… I really don’t understand why people care about it.

People who are terrible at PVP are hardly going to care about it or understand why others care about it.

I tend to say the same about torghast.

Its a shame

I like to gear through pvp, not because im the biggest pvper in the world, but its nice when i need one very specific piece and i can just get a currency for contributing to pvp

Is nice, but flippin … capped at 184 until renown 22? is that gonna add upgrades up to 197 and then need renown 40 or w0t

the Devs themselfs dont care about pvp and sabotaged it so much in the past expansions, that I wouldnt be surprised if they removed any pvp functions at all in the next expansion.

Damn it, i have ordered 3 pieces of grovigodx merch, but its a fake news apparently

Nice defense mechanism :smiley:

The panda is 100% correct though!

But I mean, put mythic 10 behind renown 22 then? Why not? It’s the same thing.

pvp vendors returning sounded like good chnage. but yeah 500 conquest cap and having such expensive gear is a joke. It takes months to get a proper pvp set while in pve you just get far more chances of loot trough m+ and raids

Indeed it’s a shame. They catter to pve players nothing new here. My guess is serious pvpers gear through M+ / raiding and cross fingers for versality gear . It’s the most effective way to do it. .I can already tell pve geared player have much higher healthpool / damage already.

I had hope like many others that honor seller would change that, but it was a trap, obviously.

Because it would screw up their pro raiding teams (world first race etc) They can’t have that. It bad PR. Screwing over casual pvpers on the other end is pretty much risk free.

Agree entirerly. I think even hardcore bg players should be able to get good gear.

Like if you sit in BG for 10h a day you deserve max ilvl gear, maybe just make it difficult to get.

Conquest should definitely not be capped and just made to sell gear based on rank, as for honor gear, it’s way to easy to get, you can be braindead and just run epic bgs and get the 184 pieces. If they made it so you could rank the items up to 200 right now, ppl would spam bgs like crazy for it, since you can target what you want and again, it doesn’t require any skill, just be in the bg, run around and do whatever, still get honor ^^ So while conquest was handled poorly, honor gear should not go that high.

On another note, why pvp seriously in wow, it’s a terrible game for it with the garbage system that is gear, if it was pvp like in GW2 where you could pick the best armor with whatever stats etc you wanted for pvp then sure, but right now ppl that grind more have the advantage, that’s a terrible core mechanic right there.
