It doesn’t even come in a single copy — many equipment slots have to be filled with PvE items. There are a huge number of PvE sets with corresponding characteristics for PvE. Why do we need a PvP set with 1 additional stat (like 1% crit) like T2 raid sets, to be kept until the release of AQ40, where PvE sets become stronger than T2 PvP? At the same time, with the release of T2 PvP, we also won’t get new epic bracers and belt. AB set is simply not needed with its +6 stamina for level 60 + there aren’t enough BGs to get it quickly enough.

Reason = pve server existing with powercreeped xfaction buffs. And its shaman tank bis, just delete shaman tanks at this point.

If one action can solve many problems, then it should be done.

Imo just release it earlyer on yshaarj, shamans dont even have bok here when tanking wich is +10% stam. And we lack xfaction powercreep so wed still be weaker in pve then on nzoth.

It’s important to understand that there are two things that limit the acquisition of a PvP gear set for players in PvE. First, it’s the rank and its ability to decrease — it’s not easy to get a high PvP rank unless you work hard at it. Second, you need a decent amount of honor points to purchase the entire set, and this leads us to the conclusion that if a player devotes enough time to PvP to earn honor points and a rank, they have the right to be considered a PvP player and to use PvP items as they wish.
