Different Gear Sets Still Pertain?

The different gear was introduced to solve the problem of players gearing up for pve via pvp and vice versa. But is that a problem? In the olden days, epics were easier to get via pvp, but that is clearly no longer the case; quite the reverse, Where to sell World of Warcraft accounts  actually. So do the original reasons for the different gear sets still pertain?

Honestly, this is a personal choice of the developers and never made much sense to me.

What does it matter if you use one for the other. Normalizing on one type of gear would make game play easier for the vast majority of players.

You could move between PvE and PvP seamlessly and enjoy more aspects of the game without either picking one or spending 40 hours a week grinding both to "be competitive."

I know the reason, I played in Vanilla. The point is, the distinction makes it problematic for everyone. Developers have to fight through these issues design wise, and players have to fight through them game wise.

Both parties would benefit from simply removing the distinct gear requirement for both.

One type of gear for both situations.

The problem is tied to RNG vs. Static methods of acquisition.  PVE still relies on RNG (more so at higher levels of play), PVP still relies entirely on currency.  Having PVE & PVP gear be the same thing means many people would PVP to fill slots for PVE.  This is precisely what happened before Burning Crusade, and quite a few players were furious about the situation.  

If you thought people were mad about being "required" to do dailies, where to buy WoW accounts wait until you see the response to being "required" to PVP.

VP has never been and will never be balanced

Ghostcrawler needs to be replaced. PVP has never been and will never be balanced. Then factor in PVE and we have an extremely frustrating buff/nerf cycle that does nothing but frustrate the players. buy cheap wow accounts Truly horrible game design. PVP needs it's own game (separate from PVE) and it needs developers capable of balancing the classes. 

MoP is the best expac since BC, but that's not really saying much.

GC is the face of the B team of Blizzard's WoW developers, who I think are largely transplanted from Activision.  The A-team who created amazing content like Vanilla and BC are working on Titan.  Which will undoubtedly be awesome until they decide to had it off to a similar B-team.

 Can't blame all of it on GC - there's a whole team involved and he can't be everywhere at once.  I do think that whomever has the final say on PvP design seems to have two flaws that conflate disastrously:

1.  He or she sees PvP as a numbers game. fast wow gold I'm sure that in some formula somewhere the overabundance of CC in Pandaria was likely countering the perceived strength of healers, but in the 'real' world of the average BG it's just so incredibly frustrating to just stand there waiting for the next time you can do something (and don't get me started on that new timer - it's sole purpose seems to be to mock you with your impotence).

2.  He or she is unable to "balance PvP" (small phrase covering a large variety of variables), whether because of personal shortcomings, due to the fact that a single system of "balances" has to simultaneously address two completely different systems of play (PvE and PvP), or some combination of both.

In the end you get a flawed approach to PvP based on equations rather than players, and then when that goes awry you get frantic 'dial twisting' of the few tools available to address the problem, which predictably also goes awry, Where to sell World of Warcraft accounts  leading to ever-more-frantic 'dial twisting', which yet again also goes awry, ad infinitum...

I Would Add SMS Protect

I would add SMS Protect if Blizzard would fix their system that believes my phone is a pre-pay while it's actually not.

I'm tired of Blizzard saying they can do nothing about it. how to buy wow gold They could certainly push on their data vendor.

Just woke up to find a couple hundred thousand gold missing from my main and an alt. None of my gear or any of the other valuable stuff was gone, so I'm going to assume that this is the case. Hopefully they can resolve this issue quickly, as it's really frustrating.  I didn't check my mailbox originally before I put in my ticket, but I just did and have won auctions for white items on the two characters I am missing gold on. Didn't have SMS protect on my account either (where to buy wow accounts) 

If only SMS protect could be used on all phones that have SMS/Text plans. Virgin Mobile (in the US) only comes up as a "unsupported" pre-paid phone. Even for the non-contract data plans (curse you low cost Jellybean 4glte phone).

SMS protect really wouldn't help to much in this case as "buying from the AH" might not trigger the suspicious alert and it doesn't require you to enter a SMS code for buying/selling. That is only for the D3 RMAH. 

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one this has happened to today. Luckily it was all fixed in about an hour by the customer service and I got all my gold back. buy wow account My guild GM advised me to get CS to disable the mobile auction house on my account as the same thing had happened to him a few months ago. 

Heroic upgraded PvE gear

Holinka's tweeted that the intent is not for Heroic upgraded PvE gear to outdamage PvP sets in world PvP. buy cheap wow accounts So expect PvP Power to be tweaked if that looks like being the case.

In Arenas and BGs it's not an issue so much - the lack of PvP Power on the raid sets will keep them from being too strong when downscaled, even if a player decides to throw gold at it and gem for Resilience or Power over just grinding an Honor set.

 Yeah it will be a welcome change for instanced pvp like this, but do you realize how much pvp power they would have to throw on weapons to make up the difference?  Look at my comparison post above.  I haven't done the math but it would have to be 50%+ damage from pvp power to make up that difference.  And that won't work because it will just imbalance arena in favor of pvpers again.

 I agree. Weapons are a problem - of course, they're also a problem right now. Top PvE weapons are better than their PvP equivalents because the amount of PvP Power on other items of gear makes it less significant on a weapon.

 I think I currently have 54% pvp power.  I meant you would need that just from the weapon, not all your gear combined.  Otherwise you've got a S11 scenario where everybody uses a PVE weapon and pvp gear.  At least that won't be in arenas anymore, which is a welcome change.

The pvp power is broken on wowhead due to Titan's grip calcs, how to buy WoW gold but I can tell you it won't be enough to counteract:

1136 Sta
671 Str
197 Crit (0.33%)
1436 Hit (4.22%)
2768.8 Melee DPS
7975 Melee Min Damage
11963 Melee Max Damage
1 Sockets

Heroic Raiding Gear

Tyrannical should not be comparable to Heroic Raiding Gear, buy cheap wow accounts What so now you want to defeat people who put in the time and effort to down those bosses to sit around and smoke their corpses. Nice Class you got there.

Tryannical should be comparable to Raiding and Elite should be comparable to Heroic Raiding.

I bet those Elites should be comparable with Heroics from PVP Power boost. Also 476 DK (FULL ON MALVOENCE YOU TWIT WHICH TOOK NO SKILL TO GET ) stacking FULL NO RESIL which you should know by now if you ever read WOW INSIDER is fin broken, they can nerf your damage beyond redemption if you let it go far enough. 

 Whoa, why so angry?  Tyrannical and Tyrannical elite have the same stats.  So somebody who is in the top 0.5% of active pvpers didn't put in the time and effort to BE SUCCESSFUL AT WORLD PVP? 

I don't want to turn this into a pissing match between whether pve or pvp is harder, but it stands to reason that the best pvpers should never be the best at killing dragons, and the best raiders shouldn't be able to murder every pvper they see just because of gear.  They are making arenas more fair, they are giving everyone resilience, we only want to know why they are breaking world pvp in the process.

And here is a tip for the next time you are trying to do your dailies and run into somebody who has won an arena match at some point in their life.  Play smart.  Losing 2v1 to somebody in honor gear (which as you said is easy to get) is the equivalent of dying because you stood in the bad. WoW gold buying On LFR.  Either go get some honor gear (which apparently takes no skill) or do the pve dailies like the keyboard-turning illiterate child you are.

Powers which are really cool in WOW

Blizzard should really make a section of their site about "Powers which are really cool in theory, wow gold for sell but we actually have no idea what we want them to do." See: Anti-Magic Zone, various Warlock Shields for more info.

That's a lot of warrior quality of life buffs. and some buffs for Arms. Wonder what made them finally give up the ghost on shield requirements?

Still don't see Stormbolt being taken as fury, Bloodbath works better with their mechanics, and SB only becomes great inside a CS window - which arms can guarantee.

The Chi Brew change is fucking meaningless, but the healing elixirs change is a bit nice. Definitely makes it more appealing when the other two talents don't apply (the case in 10-man Normal more often than not).

The Power Strikes change is fucking huge, buy world of warcraft accounts especially since the datamined T16 bonuses don't favor haste.

Does anyone else feel that BM and SV for Hunters are now going to be the equivalent of a Druid Tank in Vanilla?

No reliable interrupts on bosses (for 2 of the 3 specs), and the readiness change seems to be a pretty big nerf to both DPS for PVE and CC's for PVP that at the moment do not seem to be compensated for. Now I know this is only the PTR and very early in the cycle for it, but having only 1 spec in a pure class have access to a silence / interrupt for bosses, seems as if they just hate hunters.

However in regards to the Readiness "nerf" I am glad they did that, hopefully it will make balancing the class easier, while yeah it stinks, it may be good in the long run.

Removing the dot refreshing component

They have taken a spell which already could be casted while moving, and gave it a cast time, and then made it able to cast it while moving. gold for wow If this is not trolling the player base, I don't know what it may be. 

Casting fel flame, opens another spell to interruption which will lock shadow & fire spells from being cast. Fel Flame was the only instant damaging direct spell for affliction!

Removing the dot refreshing component while it may be situationally useful in PVE, it hurts a lot in PVP. In PVP you would cast UA an then refresh it always with Fel Flame so you would not open the possibility for a interrupt by re-casting UA.

I hope that if they go through these horrible changes, the damage from DOTS is not nerfed again. In PVP, specially in arena you rely on abusing LoS while channeling Malefic Grasp and Drain Soul as it is the only way to deal significant damage and rebuild your shards.

Blizzard is giving here the impression that the don't know what they're doing with the class. They have only one thing clear: they want KJC nerfed into the ground. Just they don't have any other plan on what to do with the class given that it relied so much on this talent (specially affliction and destruction).Now it seems that in order to nerf KJC, they need to overhaul all the class's spells. Good luck with that blizz, i'll probably try again on 6.0. You are not giving me any confidence that the changes you are pushing will result in something useful for the class.

TIP: LET US CAST MG and DS on the move and revert all this crap. It will keep the fun on the class and it will not be OP buy cheap wow accounts . (fear on the move was OP let's get rid of that)
