PvP Season 12 Ending Soon

PvP Season 12 Ending Soon

Arena and Rated Battleground Season 12 is scheduled to end on Tuesday, March 5.

At that point, we will determine who is eligible for the end-of-season rewards, a process that should take approximately one week. It's very important for players who feel that they may be eligible for Arena titles and/or the Malevolent Gladiator's Cloud Serpent to refrain from transferring their characters to another realm or faction until after Season 12 ends. The awarding of Season 12 titles and mounts will occur approximately 2 weeks after the season ends.

At the end of the season, Conquest Points will be converted to Honor Points and any honor above 4000 will be converted to gold at a rate of 35 silver per point. The honor cap will remain at 4000.

All Season 12 items will cost Honor Points (equivalent to their previous Conquest Point cost) when the season ends, with the exception of any items with rating requirements attached. These items will no longer be available for purchase.

The next Arena and Rated Battleground season will begin approximately one week after the current season ends. During the break between seasons, all Rated Battleground and Arena matches will be unavailable. Team and Personal Ratings will be reset when Season 13 begins.

So is the Malevolent gear from season 12 now just the S13 honor gear? Or will the S12 malevolent gear go away once the arena season begins?

this season should be interesting for those of us who don't have the dedication to get a team to 2200

@Doctakyjelly: yea it was the lacking in dedication is why you havent got 2200. Nothing to do with 600+ games later you still haven't been over 1550 on the whole account.

@Atebaul: People like you are why the PvP community is a sad, pathetic joke. I didn't realize that having 2700 was the license to act like a jerk to somebody for no reason.

@Kiryn: no in fact i think it's a perfectly good reason for me to complain. Because it matters to me. At 1500s it doesn't matter because it's not going to effect them however ive played at the top tier and it does matter to us. 1500s complain about things that don't effect them. I play vs more geared opponents every season because i team hop and dont expand cap and I save points and go from full honor to full conq same day. So please don't complain about : 1) t2 weaps when yall are 500 rating from people who get them 2) just because it's a little more stats. Do you wanna complain that higher teams giving higher cap is op also because technically that's another reason higher people will outgear you most of the season. It's fine if your 1500 if you're playing casual but don't vote and comment on things that don't effect you only us. It's like being a basketball player and voting for football rules.

i kinda wanted a new skill or something as a holy pally. i read all the patch notes and seems like everyone but pallies are being buffed (except ret pallies). everyones cc cds are lower and damage is getting buffed, but the lonely holy pally gets nothing. i did learn how to roll my cc's tho today, thats a plus.

@Apallo: If you honestly think that you're the only class getting nerfed, you obviously don't have many warriors or priests as friends. Both our classes took major hits in both talents and spells for 5.2.

coming from a 2/2 malevolent rogue, anyone else surprised they increased our sh**? I was already recking anyone i felt like, but it's the defense that we were lacking. I didn't even have to be Sub spec and was demolishing ppl left and right

@Shadow: to be honest not really. I new they would bring back the power of a cata rogue. Now all you need is another legendary set just for your class again then you'll be set for top in arenas with ice mage's again

@Uneverbeatme: it's a good thing, because the malev gear will be able to purchase with honor points and the dreadful we don't know about and i think this is a good thing for 90's without malev so they can get some with "Honor points" instead of conquest

Hooray for the end of probably the worst arena season ever. Hopefully rogues aren't as OP as they sound and this Xpac can show a glimmer of hope for PvP finally.
