Re: Season 2

Blizzard

PvP

Season 2 rewards from rated PvP sources are 30 item levels higher than they were in Season 1, including Conquest rewards and the weekly chest.
End-of-match rewards will be capped at 385 during the first week of the season, to maintain parity with other endgame systems until Mythic Battle of Dazar’alor becomes available.

Season 3

PvP

Season 3 brings a wave of new player-versus-player content. Get ready to raze the enemy faction in the Ashran Epic Battleground, and take on all comers in a new Mechagon-themed Arena. Participants can earn two new Vicious Basilisk mounts, and the highest-rated players will unlock new Notorious Gladiator mounts.

REWARD UPDATES
The Quartermaster’s system has been revamped for Season 3 and now awards an upgrade token equivalent to the weekly PvP chest instead of equivalent to end-of-match reward. Completing the weekly Quartermaster’s Bounty quest by trading in Quartermaster’s Prize items will award a Warlord’s Trophy. Players can begin receiving Quartermaster’s Prize items from their Conquest schedule rewards, Call to Arms quests, and from the weekly Nazjatar world PvP event World Quest. Bonus Rolls will no longer grant a Quartermaster’s token, and players who still have Quartermaster’s Coins from the end of Season 2 will be able to sell these for 50 gold each.

Item level rewards in Random Battlegrounds have also been increased by 30. During the first week of Season 3, end-of-match rewards will be capped at item-level 415. This will require Challenger rank to earn. Beginning in week 2, Challenger rank rewards will be item-level 420.

Season 4

PvP Season 4
Season 4 brings new player-versus-player content including the new Teeming Islands Brawl. This large-scale battle brings together two teams of 10 on an island overflowing with powerful creatures. This Brawl brings an additional challenge to the shores of PvP Island Expeditions by increasing the total amount of players from six to 20 on the biggest Islands (Havenswood and Jorundall).
Participants can earn two new mounts—the Vicious White Bonesteed (Horde) and Vicious White Warsaber (Alliance) and the highest-rated players will unlock the new Corrupted Gladiator’s Proto-Drake mount.

Season 2 Updates

Blizzard

With PvP Season 2, we’ve fine-tuned the Conquest reward schedule to provide players with more variety and flexibility to get the kind of gear they’re looking for.

Players who earn 500 Conquest points in a given week will receive one Quartermaster’s Coin and a piece of gear from that week’s selection. Players might also earn an additional piece of gear or Quartermaster’s Coin each week by using a weekly bonus roll token in PvP. 10 Quartermaster’s Coins can be exchanged for a Warlord's Trophy, which players can use to upgrade a piece of Sinister Gladiator’s gear to a higher item level (based on their current Rated PvP bracket).

During weeks when the Conquest reward is a head, shoulder, or chest item, players can choose from one of four different pieces of Azerite gear. For the weeks when the Conquest reward is not an Azerite piece, trinket, or weapon, players will be able to choose gear from one of two different slots such as legs and wrists, hands and back, or finger and feet.

Once you've hit the required Conquest Points you'll receive a quest where you can choose which weapon you want (based on the weapons your class can use), and the weapon will be of item level 445.

The 280 item level on the Conquest bar is a display error which should be fixed in an upcoming update.

War Mode & You

Blizzard

Conquest and World PvP
In Battle for Azeroth you’ll earn conquest for doing PvP activities similar to how it was gained in the past: Rated Arena and Rated Battlegrounds as well as some light conquest from Unrated Battlegrounds. But what’s new is earning conquest from doing World PvP activities. This gives you an additional source when filling up that “conquest bar” for your weekly conquest item.

I'm hard of hearing, is there a separate signal for the plane, or is it just an audio cue?

Comment by gunsotsu

again..why am i being awarded a 285 weapon.

Comment by hanazhu

what's the difference between a weekly PVP cache (a chest, i presume) and a weekly azerite item 'turn-in"?

see: For your weekly Azerite item Conquest turn-in, see Marshal Gabriel in the Salt and Shanty Inn near the Ashvane Docks in Boralus or Xander Silberman at Mugambala in Zandalar.

are they separate? are you guaranteed 1 azerite item for your pvp rank as well as the cache?

Comment by Gaviin

I received 65 conquest for the first random epic BG of the *week*, but after that, it's been 15 for first win of the day.

Comment by SpecBop

I received 50 Conquest just now for completing one of the Tours of Duty. There are six in total and I'm assuming the rest will also give 50 Conquest. Can only complete it once per toon though.

Comment by Jmvcyber

I completed an unrated random Epic BG yesterday and got the 65 Conquest Points, but today when I did the same I only got 15. I think the Epic one resets weekly, but the regular unrated random BG always gives 40 for the first win of the day.

Comment by tmptfate

What is the needed conquest amount per week to hit the cap? I skimmed the entire guide and found it nowhere.

Comment by Aureliana

I have not yet had to do a rated pvp match to get my reward. Is this accurate?

Comment by netherlink

Please fix the Air Drop that falls into a tree in Zandalar (67/36)

Comment by Sinestro

It states I can keep earning conquest after I cap, but the bar no longer moves after I cap it for the week. How can I keep track of the conquest points I accumulate after capping the bar?

Comment by leifharrison

GM told me that conquest points reset each week. I have been losing 200 cp a week because they claim it resets.. but no one else seems to have this problem. am I being singled out? I feel like I am being picked on lol.

Comment by Taoma

I filled the conquest bar 10 times and all the rewards were like it was said in the guide. But now on the 11th time I am getting 370 azerite chest. Does this mean if I fill it 10 more times it will get 385 azerite armor? P.S. My only high rating is in RBG and it is 1660-ish. (not sure this is relevant)

Comment by jodle

Do Dread rings "drop" from the 500 CQ quest? And are they upgradable? ^^

This page says that we will get a 345-370 items items, yet this page says 370+ https://www.wowhead.com/gearing-up-in-battle-for-azeroth#pvp-370-415

What gives?

Comment by Kriandis

What I hate about Conquest points is how they do not roll over into the next item.
Say for example you have 480 CP and need only 20CP to get your item and you run something that rewards 40CP, those extra 20CP do not roll over into the next item. What sense does this make? What is the reasoning behind such a decision?
They are points earned, they should be EARNED.

Comment by OdellaRedbird

Does anyone know if there is a spawn timer for the War Chest? I see the various drop points but didn't know if the zeppelin few over once every hour, two hours, etc...

can we have current numbers for current Season? old S1 numbers doesn't make me guess S3 numbers easily.

Comment by brucek2

I don't understand how the "weekly chest" relates to the 500 conquest quest reward next to it? Are these two basically the same item except that the quest giver offers you a choice and the chest just gives you the default? Or is there something different?

re: the chest requiring a rated BG or Arena match - I have had the chest open for me but I have never been ranked. Maybe what that line means is that you have to have done a rated match to get any of the higher tier rewards (beyond "unrated")?

Comment by kielomech

I have to curse.

Gearing is &*!@ed.

I keep saying it over and over and %^&*ing over, there's no item level in goddamned Quake. WHY in arenas, BGs, instanced PVP, do we have mythic items or item level? I could ad hominem specific people but I wont.

I won't accuse the sponsors, the gambling on esports, the merger.

Gearing is $%^&ed and unnecessary. I hate mythics. I hate arena tournaments. They're time sinks. I miss RTS Warcraft.

I want to abolish item level. It's fictional and draws away from the fun factor, especially in raids. Cosmetic unlocks is the way to go.

Botting, harassment, and boosts are the 3 big things haunting WoW at the moment, and removing the item level in instanced content (especially regarding weapons) would benefit ALL, not just the elite few. It would discourage profession robots, because the best loot comes with the subscription. Removing item level would reduce harassment, because the playing field is level. Removing item level in instanced PvP and PvE would discourage boosts, because there's plenty of cool looking cosmetic items from previous expansions to unlock.

A player leveling to 120 kicking ass all the way in PvP becomes a twig at 120. A dummy that hasn't played a single BG in months but paid for a guild boost could one shot a fresh 120 without trying (and frankly, that money should go to blizzard, not some chumps).

This doesn't correlate and reward players that are JUST PLAYING, even if it's not at high skill cap. They sunk the time in (AND PAID CASH MONEY), why punish them?

I would pay 30 a month if I got the 475 item level. I don't have the time, patience, or the tolerance for toxicity. I have lost friends. I have made many many more. I'm sick of watching people kill themselves (mentally and physically) over stupid fake stats on armor and weapons.

Why don't they have whips in the game? Why don't pole arms have a longer melee range? Where did weapon specializations go, and why can't I block attacks with a buckler sized fist weapon? Why are there no spell staves that function like two handed wands? Those are what they should be focusing on, inventive, fun gameplay, not stat bumping for item level pushes. I'm livid.

Comment by phishy042

Just wondering if anyone can help me out. Finished my 2nd run through conquest 460 bars. My next one is Quartermaster Note. I recently decided "Hey i would like to try Enhance and would love taht 460 weapon." Will I ever have a chance at that in another bar or two, or am i SOL at this point?
