    Even from a business standpoint, Blizzard should not care about the people complaining that recolored elite gear will be given to everyone. The only people who actually are getting flustered over this are the 2200-2300 tryhards that are consistently around this rating. The really good players don't even care, just go to AJ and see posts from Venruki, Talbadar, Nadaghast to name a few. They don't care. And neither should Blizzard.

    Why? Because bringing that incentive in will make a lot more people, current or new, try PvP again. And losing out the few that actually rage enough to quit because their shinies aren't unique anymore is more than compensated by the aforementioned boost.

    The "pro pvpers" are afraid now...they can no longer hide behind purchased "skill".

    Amazing changes, now I'll be actively pvping for sure! If they can just up JP earnings now I can also begin introducing alts to pvp since I can then pve gear them with heroic dungeon pieces, and use the JP earned to convert and get one or 2 good pvp pieces together with the crafted gear.

    i don't arena, or pvp at all. But, seeing as pvp should be based on skill, and not what gear you're wearing, it should be a quite good change for the more casual pvp'er.

    A baddie will still get facerolled, whether he's wearing contender's or full 2200 gear.

    great changes for pvp this will hopefully stop boosters and stuff and just sit at 2.2k+, so we will see how good they really are as they have to play all season to keep there ranks, a major update to arena since it came in BC

    lol typical as soon as pvp gets love the pve whiners come in please shut up you get more love than pvp ever does

    People QQing about this aren't nearly as skilled as they like to think of themselves as. They're mad because somewhere inside they know this.

    Good change, it still favors people that started early and continued to play, however it makes it a lot easier for mid seasoners to catch up


    Inactive pvpers only get 1000pts per week of not playing, while active gets 1650+
    I play many games. WoW, Rift, D3, PoE, SC2 I will not criticize your game choice if you don't mine.

    How about they fix the crazy amount of CC and broken mechanics rather than adjusting gear. It's not as big an issue as many people think it is. Dieing in a single stun or CC is.

    Starting mid season now you will be demolished by people at 1400 rating in full malevolent simply because they outgear the shit out of you. Giving everyone elite gear won't solve anything

    **as of patch 5.2 Team Rating will gradually increase as players participate in PvP over the course of the season.**

    Best news in a long time, force them pussies to face real pvp'ers.

    So I will also be able to get heroic PvE raid gear from farming LFR right, riiiiight.

    Why not just give gear away at NPC´s.. World of retard craft. Oh well scrubs in elite gear will still be scrubs. Also blizz once again with their head up their asses and think lazy scrubs with no gear is the issue with pvp. Clueless morons are still clueless.

    Amazing changes. I'll definitely be spending more time PVPing in 5.2.

    [QUOTE=Crevox;19886554]All this is going to do is make PVP players complain that the best PVP gear in the game can be gotten by anyone that just makes sure they cap their conquest. It means there is no gear for people that are good at the game, and any random dood can get the best gear simply by playing PVP.

    Hmmm, I always thought it was the title that showed your skill. I couldn't gaf what gear you have if you don't have a title to go with it. pfft.
