I think I have brought this up earlier, trying to get people to do some rated battlegrounds.
Well, we were not enough signups then, so Ill make a new on a similat topic.

Premade/Rated battlegrounds.

Since the last time I made a post, we had quite a few new members. Therefor I would like any to PvP'ers join up on late night premade runs through a couple of battlegrounds.
If you are interested in this kind of activity, feel free to make a reply in this thread. We dont need to be more that 3-5 people. If more are interested, its would be cool to make some Rated BG's.

The days we are raiding (mon, tues, wed, thurs) makes it a little hard to find time for this, and thats why Im thinking late night PvP'ing.

So.... Tuesday and/or Thursday after raid. We go for 1-1,5 hours. We stay on TS. We'll have fun.

Soooo.. Any takers?

I used to enjoy some PvP, but then I kinda stopped at the beginning of this season and I haven't even stepped into a BG since 4.3 dropped, so my gear is less than adequate for this season :P

Hey, good to hear Switch :-) I have a team and I am ready to go.

Anyhow; For the rest of you out there who are thinking... "I cba to do this cause I aint got no gear."

PvP gearing made easy:
ilvl 358 "bloodthirsty" PvP set can be obtained through crafting (we have all the recipes in guild). Or picked up on AH. 200-800g each.
ilvl 390 "Ruthless" PvP set can be obtained from vendors (http://www.wowhead.com/npc=54662), by spending your your Honor points(HP).
ilvl 403 "Cataclysmic" PvP set can be obtained from vendors (http://www.wowhead.com/npc=54661), by spending your Conquest points(CP).

How to get honor points:
Weekdays: Do random battlegrounds. You get honor all the time, but Alterac Valley and Isle of Conquest will give you more than others. Winning is ofcourse the key most HP.
Weekends: Do "Call to Arms" battlegrounds. You will get twice the honor you usually do.

How to get Conquest points:
Arena wins. Rated Battleground wins.
And for the rest of us.. Random Battlegrounds: 100CP for the first victory each day. 50CP for the next wins until you cap for the week. Cap is 1650 Conquest points.

"Omg, I need full ilvl403 to win.. Because my skills arent all that."

No, my friend. You do not. Having teammates, a good time and brains is the most important thing. If you have a few of ilvl390's... You will go along way.
This is how much my stats improve by upgrading my 5-set from 390 to 403.

+263 Int
+394 Sta
+39 Mastery
+513 Armor
+175 Resilience
+68 Crit
+68 Haste

See? Thats not alot. I do spend 6 weeks earning CP for the 403set, but the 390 set was earned within a few days. Just.. win :D

If you see me online, and want to do a Random BG or two... let me know. I have done alot of these now, and know the tricks in most BG's. Teaming up and defeating the uglybugly hordies is always more fun and satisfying than doing it... alone.

I can confirm this, having died only twice on my Shadow Priest during an EoE PVP run earlier today with Incendia & Hubbah whilst face-melting 70 or so Horde during the same game whilst wearing full PVE gear with zero resilience.

Allo as with switch I have the lil one now so time is limited - it's good fun pvp and do miss it. Used to play a lot on the priest but if dps is required - frost spec will get broken out again ;)
