Dev minds be like:
🤡
Using pve gear in pvp = good
Using pvp gear in pve = bad
Yes, that's Vanilla PVP. Have you never experienced it? Have you never played Vanilla or Classic? Did you never play on Turtle? Weird. Very weird indeed. It's almost like you're a retail player wanting to bring your retail bullshit here.

🤡 indeed.

Seriously, why don’t they just increase the cost of PvP gear?
People who were actively running battlegrounds and farming honor to gear up absolutely cooked. And those who played battlegrounds just for fun expecting the meta to shift due to the release of new gear are cooked too. Now, Octodevs is telling them to go farm BWL a thousand times over. Looks like they don’t want to keep their players, preferring to let them head off to WoWForever instead :lol:

Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. :roll:

I don't know why y'all expected to get Naxx tier gear with the BWL release.

I’m not sure what Naxx tier gear you’re talking about, could you be confusing T2 and T3 PvP sets?

PvP gear has no hit rating. I repeat, PVP GEAR HAS ZERO HIT RATING ATM.
It's wild how you people don't understand itemization whatsoever. Hit rating isn't the end all, buddy. Do you think people stack Hit% endlessly? You realize there's a hard cap on it, right? You realize most classes really don't need that much of it, right? :roll:

Look man, if you don't understand the basics of the game, maybe stop having opinions...

I'm not explaining basic itemization to you people, it's far above BWL tier gear. The developers want a balanced game. You're a child that wants shiny things. Sit down.

It’s as if you have no idea what are you talking about. T2 PvP gear at best it will be equal T2 PvE gear for PvE. The PvP weapons are also very weak they’re even worse than the weapons that drop from Onyxia's Lair.
In that case, I don’t even see the point of a delay, at worst the devs should just increase the honor cost for gear
