Blue quality PvP armor set upgrade

[Youfie]

I hope that they keep the existing sets in-game seeing as they are much preferable for Ret/Reck Paladins given all the bugs affecting Seal of Command/Sanctity Aura

They will (was the case on retail).

no I mean make them still able to be purchased from the vendor after the switch

Well, then they probably won't .

Once again...no one reads post history.

Will post what I did in the BWL thread.

Hello SnowFlakes,

The PTR will be open 24/7 until the end of testing. Downtimes can occur and will be announced if any.

Best regards,
Syrah.

Hello Syrah,

Are the Rank 14 weapons updated on PTR?

Assuming they'll still be updated according to the original timeline, since no specific change has been stated.

Regarding PvP equipment (which is for us a major point) :
* PvP equipment sets (R7, R8, R10 & R12, R13) will be available with original stats (before 1.11 patch) at server release.
* R14 weapons won't be available for players with the corresponding highest rank until ZG's release.
* Once ZG has been released, new PvP items will be available (R7, R8, R10), and R12/R13 items will be updated, in line with the stats known after 1.11 patch.

We announce that these R14 weapons (related to the patch 1.4) will be available at server launch since statistics of these weapons will not bring a balance problem with PVE equipments progression. At ZG release, the weapons will be automatically upgraded with the stats from patch 1.12 : players won't have to buy the new ones, and enchantement on the weapon will be preserved.

Although the pvp item update wasn't fully incorporated into the new timeline posted recently...so who knows!
