WOW, Season 4. Arena or GTFO - Page 70

Jabberwhacky · 06-20-2008, 02:12 AM

So Arena 2 armor is going to be honor-buyable come Season 4, but what all does that include besides the armor sets and weapons? Any cloaks or rings or necklaces or trinkets? Is there anything worth buying now with honor for a newly leveled 70 that won't be a "waste" come S4?

Saban · 06-20-2008, 02:38 AM

S4 starts in 5 days, so yeah.

The new boots, rings, and bracers will require a minimum Arena rating to purchase with honor, so you could buy those now and not worry about better being available in S4. The old ones will still be available in S4, though, and at a reduced price, so even there it's likely better to wait.

The only things you should buy in case you are interested in having the best possible gear at some point during s4 are the following:

1x s3 ring
the 40k trinket
a battlemaster's trinket
optionally, epic gems from honor

This is of course assuming you can make back everything you spent by tuesday.

everything else will be replaced

Also,

If you do not think you'll be achieving 1850 or above ranking anytime soon, the season 2 weapons and shoulder would be the best pvp gear you'd be able to get with honor.

Druids annoy me far more than rogues ever have right now, they are just too fucking hard to kill.

Too many people are forming opinions on PvP based on their experiences with alts in BGs. It's too easy to get a couple pieces of purple on a 70 you've got 30 days /played on and think you should be a God.

The difference between a competent player and some newb with Gladiator gear is huge. The difference between a good player and a competent player is even bigger and this thread has far too many WoW.com rejects crying about PvP with the big boys when they just don't get it.

PS: With my crap gear and my drive to win I got my Vengeful Swords. I posted my armory 3 or 4 pages back and was motivated by all the 1500 scrubs who still can't accept simple tactics like queue dodging. Good luck with season 4.

Actually I believe S3 weapons are going down to 1800?

If you can't make it to 1850 now you're not going to make it to 1800 for a loooong time when season 4 starts and every team is working their ass off from 1500.

Yep, absolutely hate druids. My mage has less trouble with them than my warrior, but still. Outside of Arena, they're absolutely impossible in WSG.

Pillar humping resto druids are damn near unkillable unless you can stunlock the bajeesus out of them. All the spells they are casting are instant cast and typically are super cheap and if they are geared enough I have seen a resto druid get chased around by 5 people who were not able to actually kill him. You silence them they bear form get them low on health they can pretty much instant cast full heal themselves once every couple of mins.

WarderX · 06-20-2008, 11:02 AM

Pull of their team member(s) to the opposite side of the map compared to the pillar the druid is humping, hurt them, force the druid to run out into the open across the map to save them. Profit?

Come on guys, you should have learned this 2 seasons ago. Chasing the same of any class around a pillar for any amount of time is them taking advantage of you, and you deserve to lose. Switch targets, force the druid to come out and heal.

Purge/Dispell every hot the druid throws forcing them to use expensive/slow heals..win?
