    New Arena Season and other stuff

    Hai there, I got a little question about the new season that is comming up. I'm dont realy play arena alot but I like to do some PvP once in awhile so my question is, does anyone know what BLizz is gonna do with Relentless gear?? Will we be able to buy it with the Emblems of Triumph or will it be with honor and arena points and rating?

    This is, what will most likely happen:

    Emblem of Triumph : Furious Arena Gear
    Emblem of Frost : Relentless Arena Gear
    Only Arena Points: Wrathful gear

    of course you will be able to buy furious and relentless with a mixture of arenapoints and honor. Furious might also become available for honor only.

    Relentless is gonna be moved to Triumph Emblem vendor and Furious is gonna be where deadly is now. Nothing about any PvP items being buyable with Frost Emblems at all.

    Do not post false information, Relentless is being sold by the Frost Emblem vendor while Furious is staying at the Triumph Emblem vendor.

This game just gets easier and easier, Blizzard may as well just hand out free camp fires all over the major cities at this point!

    No it doesn't make sense to move it all AGAIN while Frost Emblems have only been here so short.

    Relentless will be available at lower ratings and with a mixture of honor/arena points, nothing else, the way it should be. It's just like Furious has been for nearly all season long, except the last ~1.5 month. When we're nearly at the end of S8 you'll probably find Frost Emblems move up to HC's, making Relentless the ''LOL-EzMode-HC-Farm-set", but not any earlier.

    I forgot to add the Frost Emblem part, but still it's making complete sense how Blizzard does this. (And even if some people seem to think that it's not the same as previous season(s), IT IS.)

    S7 start:
    Relentless --> High Rated Arena.
    Furious --> Low Rated Arena. NOTHING ELSE
    Deadly --> Honor/Emblem of Conquest. (Was the HC emblem back then)

    S7 nearly at the end:
    Relentless --> No changes.
    Furious --> Low Rated Arena PLUS trough Emblem of Triumph (HC's)
    Deadly --> No changes.

    So at the start of S8 we'll get this:
    Wrathfull --> High Rating Arena.
    Relentless --> Low Rated Arena. NOTHING ELSE (YET)
    Furious --> Honor/Emblem of Triumph. (HC emblem still.)

    And again, at the near end...Relentless will be available trough Frost Emblems which will be obtainable trough HC's.

    It's all just the same, again.

    Isn't it likely that relentless will be available for frost badges as soon as the patch drops? I seem to remember buying furious shoulders for triumph badges on my alt the day that S7 started.

    Way too many mixed views/rumours/opinions going on... how about instead of a 1,000 different posts all about different things someone finds the correct information so that anyone with questions won't be mislead or lied to about what's going to happen because they'll have all the information they need to know infront of them. Lol.

    Season 8 gear: How to buy it.

    Furious Set:
    Weapons are no longer avaiable.
    Emblem of Triumph.
    Emalon (25 player)
    and Koralon (10 player)

    Furious off-set:
    No longer avaible for honor?
    Emalon (25 player) and Koralon (10 player)

    Relentless off-set:
    Koralon the Flame Watcher (25 player)
    Toralon (New VoA boss, 10 player)
    Honor with no Arena rating requirement.

    Relentless Set:
    Weapons are no longer avaiable.
    Emblem of Frost
    Koralon the Flame Watcher (25 player [Legs, Gloves])
    Toralon (New VoA boss, 10 player [Legs, Gloves])
    Arena Points with low Arena rating requirement.


    Wrathful off-set:

    Toralon (New VoA boss, 25 player)
    Honor with Arena Rating requirement.

    Wrathful Set:
    Weapons are avaiable. The first tier requires 1800 with any team, the second tier will require 2200 on a 3s or 5s team (personal and team rating).
    Totalon (New VoA boss, 25 player [Possible only Legs and Gloves?])
    Arena Points with High arena rating requirement. Shoulders will require 3s or 5s team and personal rating.

    New trinkets are still unknown, I'm afraid. I really hope there will be a new version of a resil+pvp trinket (honor+arena rating), a new stats+pvp trinket (WG) and a new battlemaster (honor + arena rating)

    I'm 99% sure there's going to be a new Resilience PvP trinket with around 150 resilience. I'm not sure about the Wintergrasp ones though.
