Why all new 100's should PVP instead of running Dungeons. (Archivada)

Por c911darkwolf [Last Updated]: 23/05/2017 Lista de cambios Parche: 6.2.2

Welcome to Gearing up your Level 100 and why PVP > Dungeons > GrindingWhat is this guide trying to do?Ok... SO why is PVP the best choice?

Hope Baleful gear missions appear for your followers and hope they can complete them

Grinding Apexis missions daily which may be a little rough with fresh 100 gear and no bodyguard

Run Normal Dungeons at 100 to get geared to run Heroics, so you can get gear to run Raids (Phew...)

If you have a ton of gold you can easily upgrade 3 warforged items and thats 3 slots you don't have to loot for... although this is very costly past the ~670 mark

Now... Why would we want to PVP instead?

No Requirements - Can que up at level 100 and your gear will be *Upscaled* to the appropriate ilvl (it's not perfect, but sure helps out a bunch) The more people in the raid/bg the less little mistakes matter on the whole. A easier learning curve

Prep for level 100 - You can do Battlegrounds before 100 to save up the 4k honor cap to buy 1-3 pieces as soon as you hit level 100 (were talking 670 gear too!!!)

Repeat-ability - yon can run Asharan all day and as many bg's as you like. There is no cap such as running heroics dungeons 1 time

Group Activity - your not doing it alone... your grouped up with no less then 9 other people up to 40 doing these events so a mistake/undergear here or there doesn't make a huge difference with the overall whole. You Can group up with as many or little friends from your realm as you like!

Coordination - While PVP tends to have ragers just like Dungeons, you don't have that weird urge to push forward as fast as possible and people are more willing to talk

Wiping VS Respawning - If you mess up in a dungeon your group wipes.. Everyone dies, you have to reenter the dungeon, heal, rebuff, ect... You Mess up in PVP in 5-30 seconds your back in the game at full life baby!

Reward for Failure - If you wipe multiple times on a dungeon and everyone quits your very likely to walk away with nothing but some gold and a repair bill, but in PVP you don't worry about repairing, and you get honor/rewards based on participation so your still get honor points that can be used to buy armor and may even get MORE if it was close. So you NEVER walk away empty handed it's all about participation losing a close match is still rewarding!

Honor is Easy - The Stadium in your Garrison, Garrison missions, Winning BG's, Losing BG's, Wining Asharan, Losing Asharan, being near a person who scored a kill, turning in objects, ect... you can earn HONOR all day long with a large variety of methods.

Lots of Mechanics & little Research - There are all kinds of different BG's everything from Capture the Flag to Operating Siege Engines!! Lots of fun mechanics that don't require you watching a youtube video on every dungeon before going in to prevent from being yelled at!

You can always PVP - If you use PVP gear to get into raiding you will find that as you build up your raiding gear to replace it with you will always have your PVP set ready to go if you want to take a break from raiding and go cleave some skulls!

Newbie Raid Gear - There is stat differences between PVP and Dungeon gear.. Thats why your not going to take a full 700ilvl gear set and start doing Heroic Raids. The one you will notice right off is a increase in Stamina over raid gear. Which i consider this a plus to a new raider it allows you to stand in that lake of fire, or forget to move out of the bosses lightening attack and have the extra Stamina to survive as your travel the learning curve that LFR and Norm has. This will make you a little beefier hp wise and allow you to make a few more mistakes before dying.

Near Instant queuing even if your DPS! -

How does PVP Gear compare to Raid Gear? **Note: Now the ilvl doesn't actually change when you go to a Raid this is just a guide to make sure you don't bite off more then your gear can chew...**So who can level up through PVP?My ExperienceOk you got me where do i Start?PreperationWhat should I buy First?
Trinkets... Why? Because there isWhat should I buy Next?**Note: I upgraded Trinket 1, Trinket 2, Weapon(s), Chest And Legs The reason was I wanted the Freedom Trinket, I wanted the Trinket Set Bonus, I wanted mas my damage/healing, and Then I wanted the Chest/Legs Set Bonus. This is a good method for almost everyone. **The Thing I bought just dropped!!How to Farm Honor/Conquest

Battle Grounds - These are good way to start when you hit level 100. The Upscaling mechanic will give you a better chance at being competitive, but keep in mind it's NOT perfect :) You get points for kills/assisting kills/ being near someone who got a kill, you also get good rewards for close loses, and honor & conquest points for wins.

Asharan - There is 2 weekly quest for Asharan that you get. The first ask you to get 200 kill credits (again credits so you don't need the killing blow) for 200 Conquest Points and the second one is which is win 4 events and kill the faction leader. Now this one gives you 500 Conquest points + a Nice Crate that can contain Versaility Gear ilvl 700 in it. So no matter your ilvl do these 2 quest each week. Once you complete these you can do the repeatable quest for 500 conquest each time Thats 500 conquest each time, but this can be frustrating to complete with Asharan Groups so starting out I would try to get the weekly ones done and concentrate on BG's more.

Arenas - When you start getting a decent ilvl say 670ilvl + I would start thinking of doing arena's with a friend or partner. You might lose some, but wins will grant you Conquest points and you can run arena's all day long if you need too. This will help you get conquest to take your gear from the ilvl 670 mark up to ilvl 700 mark.

Missions - Yes you will get missions for followers from time to time to earn 200 Honor. Knock these out for some easy honor!

Garrison Stadium - Building the Garrison stadium allows you to collect "bones" from Asharan when you kill people and turn them in to gain honor and honor gear.

World PVP - By being on a PVP serve or turning on your PVP Tag /pvp you can attack people in the open world and if you kill someone you gain honor as well. Note if your on a PVP server this is pretty much on in most areas, and if your not then you can only attack other pvp flagged people.

I have all my Honor gear is Honor points useless?

It's thorough... maybe too thorough. A long wall of text. You could really cut down on the amount of wording used. That said, there is a handful of structure, grammatical, and spelling errors. You reference many things (quests, items, etc.) here, but don't provide any links to them. Images help too. What or who are we looking for? You pointed out a loophole in the vendor return system. You shouldn't do that.

You can also do the Loan program (Buy ilvl 670 gear for 1250/1500 honor) and pvp in it to only come back and sell it back under the 2hr limit so you can build more honor to buy something bigger) I don't advise this it's far to much work to keep track of it all.

That's abusing the game and not what it was intended for. Then you go on to say you don't advise it... well don't mention it.

I completely get where you are coming from, and this is an optional route for some. But not ALL players should gear this way as you imply. Guides should be very neutral and suggest, not tell players how to play the game. Tell them what they can do. Show them how. And leave the rest out.

Good guide! Though I should say that it could use a bit of grammar and spelling fixes. For example, it's spelled Ashran, not Asharan. Other than that, it definitely encouraged me to do some PvP!

You don't seem to know what the easy ways to get high level gear are without PVP.

1. Treasures
2. Drops from rares
3. Baleful items

Basically, at 100, I got a map of the treasures and rares and the guide here on Wowhead, and just flew around and picked up tons of free gear, all 650+. Since I have the Dwarven Bunker, I got some a larger percentage of free epic upgrades.

Joined the Kazzak raid (no iLevel requirement) and got an iLvl 705 piece (not guaranteed to drop unfortunately, but got a bonus roll through my Dwarven Bunker again.

So, no PVP, no dungeons....

Average iLvl is 650.

The guy spent a lot of time giving us hints. pathways and help. A lot more than your post...

1. "That's abusing the game and not what it was intended for. Then you go on to say you don't advise it... well don't mention it." - ACTUALLY - If it's allowed in the game engine, then exploits are simply brilliant playing.... may or may not be a bug, it could be software operating as designed. Certainly not your call.

2. "You pointed out a loophole in the vendor return system. You shouldn't do that" - ACTUALLY - If it's allowed in the game engine, then exploits are simply brilliant playing.... may or may not be a bug, it could be software operating as designed. Certainly not your call.

3. "It's thorough... maybe too thorough. A long wall of text. " - ACTUALLY - Man, if you didn't want to read the post, don't. I read every word.

4. "Guides should be very neutral and suggest, not tell players how to play the game. Tell them what they can do. Show them how. And leave the rest out." - ACTUALLY - Who made you the guide police?
