Gearing in PVP is finally possible with the new expansion. Here’s how you can get yourself easy item levels to get into groups easier through honor grinding.
In terms of gear on your character, there are different avenues you need to get into like these ones:
Starting with PvE, this is where you start with the world quests and attain some gear here and there after questing. Second is the Normal Dungeons. This will get you even more loot. You do get a lot less gear with the new expansion when it comes to the dungeons bosses and even capped with raids. Grinding dungeons for higher level loot will also take longer time. Lastly, the PvP. This is where you’ll get fast and great deal on item levels in shorter spans of time. Also strengthens agility and intellect this early in the expansion and is a lot more cohesive.
PvP Vendors are also coming back to shadowlands!
The Honor Vendor, Conquest Point Vendor, and the Upgrade Vendor. These vendors can be found depending on which covenant you belong to. Here’s a quick rundown of what these vendors do.
The Honor Vendor has a variety of trinkets which are no longer in the talent slots but have their own trinket slots. The Honor Vendor has a lot and sells a lot of items focusing on versatility where versatility is being considered the unofficial PvP stat. Every single piece of this vendor’s rely on versatility where it be verse heavy, verse mastery, and verse haste.
The Upgrade Vendor particularly let’s you upgrade the pieces you have bought from the Honor Vendor also known as Honor Gear. The gear can be upgraded with higher renown to a higher level. Although, they are going to have a maximum leveling capacity.
And last but not the least, Conquest Point Vendor. This vendor has not been yet initialized in the current expansion but we’ll get deeper into it once everything is finalized with this vendor.
How to gain honor in the easiest way possible without breaking a sweat? Here’s how!
Do weekly quests. These quests will be given in order to gain honor in the battlegrounds but only goes for random battlegrounds as of the moment and does not apply to bonus ones. Honor will only be given on slain enemies, capturing objectives, and basically playing the battlegrounds.
Play the battlegrounds. Win or lose, you’ll get to go home with honor either way. You get to work for your honor and if you lose a round or two, you won’t walk away with empty hands. Who would say no to that? Win-win situation for all. Also, it’s always nice to see how your outlook spec is performing when it comes going against sub rogues, shutters, warlocks, and other battleground enemies.
