Prepare for pvp in 4.3

[Kasapin]

Hey everyone, this is my first guide so any constructive criticism is appreciated!
With 4.3 coming up, stocking up on honor enchanting mats and gems is worth your time now!
-Crafted: Vicious (ilvl 377)
-Honor: Ruthless Season 11 (ilvl 390)
-Conquest: Cataclysmic (ilvl 403, T2 Elite Weapons 410)
**PLEASE NOTE**, I haven't played the PTR, so these are the item levels I have been able to find, which seem about accurate.

How to stock up on honor:
-Convert 6,000 honor --> 4,000 Justice points at the 375 -->250 ratio.
-But two sets of Head and shoulder enchants that are right for your class, I linked the spell caster dps:
Head: Arcanum of Vicious Intellect - Item - World of Warcraft (1 at 1,000 honor = 2,000 honor)
Shoulder: Greater Inscription of Vicious Intellect - Item - World of Warcraft (2 at 2,000 honor = 4,000 honor)
You'll need two sets one is for the Ruthless Season 11 (390), and the other is for the Cataclysmic (403). Since you'll be busy farming out honor for the new 390 gear, it is just less honor farming you'll need.
-Also stock up on gems and enchats or enchanting mats now while they are a bit lower. **NOTE** that there will be new epic gems with 4.3 which only will come from raiding so far, and those will most likely be to expensive for most people.
-Finally cap out on your 4k honor points the night before 4.3! And save all Extra conquest since each point will go to 35 silver!

Hmm, I'm currently saving JP to convert to Honour, didn't think about buying the enchants earlier for a headstart too, thanks!

Nice post!

To bad we wont be able to buy stuff and then sell em the day after

Patch 4.3 sellback policy explanation

items purchased within the two hour window before the release of 4.3 will lose their ability to be sold back to the vendor when the realms are brought down for maintenance. No refunds will be granted for items purchased during this time, either by the in-game vendors, or our support departments.

Thank you everyone for the WG and Tol'Barad wins and quests! Good ideas

Thanks for this guide! Really forgot to start preparing for that and even if I would've remembered, I would've missed some of the details written here!

Nice job! +rep x2

It is a good idea to add some eye catching font's with some color. balding text and underlining etc. I'm definitely doing all this for next patch, thanks for the guide.

good tips but any chanse it will bug as last time. when i loged after last big patch, i ended up with 19k honor. so i could buy pretty much stuff :> if i'm not wrong it was the PvP points that got convertet to honor ( up to 4k ) wich bugged for many people. so since i had much i ended up with 19k honor

Yes, but this time if you don't have honor cap all extra Conquest goes into 1Conq. -> 1Honor. And any extra Conquest points are 35 silver. So no more crazy amount of honor D:

great guide most wont think to prep like this for a new season

and what about buying some stuff buy with conquest before Update who can be reselled during 2 hours?

-Wait thuesday before the Update.
-Buy some stuff with your conquest points.
-disconnect and wait tomorow.
-connect wednesday after 4.3 release.
-resell your conquest stuff (who is become honor stuff).

This stuff gona give you conquest point cause you buyed it before 4.3 or honor points?
Countdown of 2 hours don't work when you'r logged out.

No after you buy conquest stuff, 2 hours counts even when offline. So you can't just wait for servers to come up after maintenance. Blizzard has caught on to us XD
