WoW Season 5 PvP Gear so far

April 21, 2009 · Filed Under Tech News 

WoW Season 5 kicked off in December of last year. And let me tell you, it was pretty darn crazy. That’s no knock on Blizzard. The chaos was a product of circumstances. Everyone had to start from scratch, meaning figuring out where to go with their gear, their character levels, their strategies and their class specs. Everything was different and nobody had any real experience with the new stuff. That means everyone is still just getting their arms around what they want to do for Season 5 gear.

Where We Started Season 5

To start with, players had to use their PvE gear in the Arena. There was no choice. There was no beginner level PvP gear at Level 80 to choose from. Wearing your Season 4 gear into the Arena just wasn’t practical since it was Level 70 stuff and even crafted gear didn’t measure up for beginners in PvP. For a while, there was a lot of characters with mid-level dungeon gear in there.

As players continued to play and grind for honor, they they were able to get pieces of the Savage Gladiator rare gear set. This was available for honor points and emblems of heroism at Level 80 without having to fight in the Arena. The next level (out of three levels) of Gladiator Gear was also available for honor points off of Archavon in Lake Wintergrasp as well as in the Arena.

The last level of gear, the Hateful Gladiator gear that caps out Season 5 sets was only available after you reached a 2050 Arena rating. You can get this gear through Archavon on 25 man and through a combination of Honor and Arena points. It will likely take a major portion of Season 5 to gather all the components.

Season 5 PvP has been a huge success thus far but only for players who can adapt quickly and know what gear to have and when.
