Justice and Honor Gear ilvl Changes

PvP rewards released today

Bashiok

We’re working to adjust current Justice and Honor gear to better align with intended values. Currently it’s more lucrative to run Battelgrounds for ilvl 464 epics, and convert all Justice to Honor to gear up. While some crossover is fine, the most optimal way to gear for PvE doesn’t make sense to happen through PvP.

This hotfix will ideally go out today, and once applied will change all Justice and Honor items (including those already purchased) in the following ways:

Justice Items

Honor Items

We’ll be increasing the PvP Power and Resilience on the Honor items by 15% to compensate for this change.

Again, our design in Mists of Pandaria is to allow for a greater degree of crossover between PvE and PvP using the same gear, but the original item levels simply made Honor gear (through Battlegrounds or conversion of Justice to Honor) a far better route to gear up for PvE. Players who enjoy PvE shouldn’t feel forced to PvP to get the best gear, and vice versa.

Comment by Adamsm Heh really not surprised to see that bump up of the JP items. Comment by shadowhack So they want PvE players to buy PvE JP gear not PvP honor gear, not horrible as JP gear being 450 was not worth it, but still not really worth it outside of unlocking ilvl for heroics, because you're gonna get the 463 blues from heroics pretty fast really. Comment by Interest This change is extremely well appreciated. I even see it in-game =). Comment by razorgr "Players who enjoy PvE shouldn’t feel forced to PvP to get the best gear, and vice versa." Yea that's why there are no Honor Weapons. So PVPers aren't forced to do PVE for a good weapon. Oh wait.... :P Comment by Adamsm "Players who enjoy PvE shouldn’t feel forced to PvP to get the best gear, and vice versa." Yea that's why there are no Honor Weapons.
