I was close to 2.4 rating in RBGs when a friend asked me to join their alt team. I refused telling him that i want to get the tabard at 2.4, then i could crash my rating. He told me that there is no tabard in rbgs... after asking around, it was confirmed.
WTF BLIZZARD?
I understand full elite gear at 1.8, that increases participation. Hard to understand cloak and enchant at 2.1. But it feels like i got screwed with no tabard in rbgs, basicly what's the point to even get 2.4? The system in Legion was way more logical with elite set at 2k, tabard at 2.2 and enchant at 2.4. Basicly it would incentivise people that collect pvp vanity items to push 2k/2.2k every season and 2.4 once per expansion, thus forming a great community with a common goal. This system is shit as it is atm.
