What the new season brings

[[Z]em]

With the new pvp season on the horizion (28th) alot of changes are being made to how pvp gear is obtained. I believe that the current epic pvp gear "Vicious" will become available to purchase with honor points. Also that will be true with the 359 item level weapons but firstly an collection of "18500" must be gained in the new season before you are able to purchase them.

If you do not have a good weapon from heroic's or raids then this is going to prove to be a very tiresom task and endless amounts of BG's getting raped before you can get the weapon.

Here is what was said on the recent blue post about changes to the pvp aspect of the game in the new season:

Gladiator Weapons
•Season 10 Conquest Point weapons will only be purchasable once a required minimum sum of Conquest Points has been reached during the current season. For example, Ruthless Gladiator's Pike costs 3400 Conquest Points to purchase. However, players must first earn a total of 11650 Conquest Points during Season 10 before they are able to purchase it.

•Season 9 Honor Point weapons will only be purchasable once a required minimum sum of Honor Points has been reached during the current season. For example, Vicious Gladiator's Pike costs 3400 Honor Points to purchase. However, players must first earn a total of 18500 Honor Points during Season 10 before they are able to purchase it.

•Once the minimum sum of points required to purchase weapons is reached, all available weapons can be purchased for their listed costs. The point requirement is not reset once a purchase is made.

•Weapon tooltips from the vendor will let players know how many more Conquest or Honor Points must be earned in the current season before the item can be purchased.


Class changes are also being made (Thank God) to a number of different classes.
I believe DK's are getting nerf and Frost mages.
