Tier 5 into Tier 6 in 2.4

**Daeger** · 03-01-2008

I don't believe this has been posted yet, I did a quick search but wasn't able to come up with anything.

I got this idea when I was reading the PTR notes. Apparently, you're able to switch in a Tier 5 or Tier 6 token to get a piece of your class's Season 2 PVP set. Now, this may not seem significant at first, but consider this.

Try spending a Tier 5 token on a piece of Season 2 gear and then petitioning a Game Master to help you. Report you accidently spent a Tier Six token in order to get the item. If you get lucky, you might just get a free upgrade. If you don't, just claim ignorance and get your Tier 5 token back for no real risk.

Here's hoping it works for someone once 2.4 hits live.

IIRC wasn't it, you changed a peice of T5 for S2, and T6 for S3? If that is the case, then it wouldnt work, though I cant actually remember!

Nope. Both tokens swap for Season 2.

The ones from Sunwell swap for the Vindicator's honor gear, however.

You cannot swap any tier 5 or 6 into S3 (tier) gear. Only Sunwell T6 into Vindicator's gear (boot/bracer/belt). Rest of the S3 items cant be changed into, except for arena points.

Incorrect, T5 tokens = S2 Gear
T6 tokens = S3 gear

Taken from mmo champ.

Gates are now opened on the US PvE test realm, a few more vendors are available and it looks like you will be able to :

Use Tier 4 Armor Tokens to buy Season 1 Gladiator set.
Use Tier 5 and Tier 6 Armor Tokens to buy Season 2 Gladiator set.
Use [Badge of Justice] to buy Season 2 "honor" armor. (40 badges for boots and belts, 25 for bracers)
Use your Tier 6 Sunwell Armor tokens to buy season 3 belt/bracers/boots.

Hmm nice but still GM's can go into their log and see what items you have got equiped and what you have/had in backpack/bank and so.. so you can get your T5 token but im not that sure with T6

**BonutDot** · 03-01-2008

Seriously, wtf is going on with all these "change T4 into T6 for free exploit!!" posts? They're not exploits at all, they're just plain scams. Just because you're scamming a GM instead of another player doesn't make it any less of a scam. (Also, any GM that has the ability to do item restores is going to check your item transaction log first thing and see that you're full of shit and trying to get free gear.)

Maybe you guys should start posting these in the scam forum where they belong.

sorry but this is fail.

GM's can retreive a record of items you have had with a considerable amount of time (history)

Blizzard keeps an record of your account. they can easily go into your record of what items you have / have had in the past and what you have done with them. your idea of trying to "trick" a GM to give u t6 from a t5 token that u spent on a pvp peice, will not work.

further more,

last year i sold my nat pagels fishing pole that gave +25 fishing, to a vendor.
last month i got my fishing up and realized i couldnt do the quest to get it. i signed in a ticket and without even giving the name of the fishing pole they pulled it up on record and gave the the choice if i wanted to use one of my item restores to get it back

They don't see "tier 6 token" they see code which is much different than just the two tokens. They can see exactly what you deleted and I doubt they will make a mistake.

Whilst i agree this is a BS scam and will most likley end in your banning i have to say that zimmyt is full of something brown & smelly since i know for a fact blizzard will NOT return items that were destroyed or vendored more than 4 week prior to the ticket.

How do i know? Cos ive tried
