This wont be a big deal, If you want you can just sit on 1900 in one bracket while getting points from another if your not sure you can keep a 1900 rating. Unless of course they require you to keep playing games which i doubt they would do. ANyways though 1900 rating isn't hard, but they should take the requirement away once s4 comes out so when your getting your rating up on a fresh season you can still use ur weapon.

Yay bornakk!

My understanding is season 3 = 2.3?

Q u o t e:


I agree. I dont raid, but it seems VERY unfair to give PVPers the best weapons in the game, when raiders would have to be geared, ina g guild, and compete for when a weapon drops in end game instances. Seems very unfair. Us PVPers can just buy our way onto a team with the appropriate rating. PVEer cant just join a guild and raid end game stuff under geared.

true, for this to work they are going to have to get rid of arena rating selling somehow. Otherwise all they are doing is punishing legit players who can't get the 1900 rating while all the buyers who are terrible will have thier weapons anyways.

Great, now we have to save up arena points and gold. WTB a spot on an arena team with 1900+ rating... I wonder how much it'll cost to get on a team for a minute .. probably a lot more if you have to do a full week and 10% with them

Can Season 3 to be Season 3D!

I want to play WoW in 3D, in first person, and with cool glasses.

What about the fact that this hurts weapon dependent classes and is just an inconvenience to non-weapon dependent classes?

Why not make the helms require ratings? Or the chest pieces?

Limiting this to weapons is a nerf for melee once again. (anyone know if huntard weapons are included in this?)

I love the "1900 isn't that hard" posts on a lvl 61. Please understand that 1900 is a extremely small portion of the playerbase. It's an outright sell out to the full time wow players and a kick in the head to anyone that plays less than 20 hours a week.

Because of the base dps/dmg/healing weapons get from thier Ilvl, they are comparable to raid weapons for raiding, since the stats arn't the main thing a weapon offers. Armor works differently, so blizzard simply loads the sets with stam and resil so they are good for pvp and terrible for raiding.

Blizzard,

How are you going to prevent people buying their way onto arena teams to get the necessary rating to use an S3 weapon? Have you guys even thought about how many people will be doing this?

---

Q u o t e:
We have stated that there will be a minimum rating required to use the season 3 weapons.

---

A minimum rating to use S3 weapons? Heh, can't wait to see the forums after people buy them and can't maintain rank.

SHHHHHH!!!


Doing dailys everyday and selling a 2v2 team each week will be the best way to pay for PvE expenses. Heck, I could stop doing dailys.
