T2 weapons today?

[Improvedlol]

Do you think Blizzard will release the T2 pvp weapons today like they said 1 month ago? Or with the patch in X weeks?

Was really hoping for today, but I haven't seen any log on window about restarts or a patch (or whatever they need to do).
Irritating to give a date like that and go back on it.

Are the T2 weps you are referring to buyable without a 3x3 rating?

[Mufasaprime]

the Tier 2 weapon is the 2200 rated 3v3 5v5 rating , tier 1 was the normal epic, if there was a tier 0 it would be blue, hope that helps

As previously announced (http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/to...7814533?page=1), Conquest items requiring 2200 rating were made available today, January 25, with the exception of weapons. We plan to make the 2200 weapons available approximately two weeks after the release of patch 4.0.6.

The decision to further delay availability of weapons requiring 2200 rating was not made lightly. Currently very few guilds are clearing PvE content that drops weapons of this caliber, which would make rated Battlegrounds and Arenas the primary source for top-tier weapons. We of course don’t want players who are pursuing PvE content to feel as though they must engage in heavy PvP to obtain these weapons in order to be competitive or successful.

We do have some plans to help avoid similar situations in the future, and we’ll share more details when they become available.

its complete crap, 3 expansions and NOW they say this? of fucking course we always went for pvp weapons, hell season 3-4 rogues HAD to sport pvp weapons or they would be useing blue weapons for a 1/100 chance for a weapon to drop, this is a load of crap and they know it, and its not like getting 2200 is freaking easy, yes some classes have it easier, and some comps can faceroll it, but really? game breaking?

http://www.wowhead.com/item=59492 The weapon most players have, the easiest to get and its a faceroll to kill said boss, pretty much known as lootmaw, 5-6mins worth of work

http://www.wowhead.com/item=67452 what was promised to the 2200 community

now heres the stat weight

66 Sta
44 Str
257 Resilience (2.73%)
257 Crit (5.6%)
80.3 Melee DPS
231 Melee Min Damage
347 Melee Max Damage

^ if this is what makes or break a fight, you dont deserve to raid

You're just now figuring out Blizzard cares more about PvE than PvP integrity?
