Honor cost for Malevolent Gear? (5.2)

[Acidbaron]

I was wondering for those on PTR if anyone know the prices for the current gear pieces, are they the same as Dreadful on live?

Also did the stats remain the same with the ilevel nerf or where the budgets adjusted accordingly?

Thanks in advance!

Malevolent s13 costs as much honor as Dreadful s12 and have the exact same stats as 0/2 upgraded Malevolent s12.
The big difference is that for dual-wield/MH+OH the pvp-power has been split evenly on both pieces instead of the MH
having the majority of the pvp-power.

Does anyone know what the new malevolent gear looks like? Do they look like what we have on live or is it back to the dreadful glad's color? (example: DK malevolent is blue, Dreadful is green.) Just asking for transmog reasons.

this is not correct. they lowered the item lvl of the new malevolent gear. but increase the res/pvpp.

and the cost remains the same.

Thanks for the correction Loki504, i guess the same is done to dreadful to adjust it to the right item budgets.

So what is better for next season? T1 weapon from this season fully upgraded or s13 honor weapon?

According to the blue post a few days ago;

Keep in mind that a fully upgraded (2/2) piece of 5.1 Malevolent Gladiator’s gear will be slightly better than its 5.2 counterpart, so if you already own pieces that you haven’t fully upgraded yet, then going for full upgrades might be a good course of action.
