Legion PvP Preview: Vindictive Gear Models, Honor Levels, PvP Talents, New Arenas, New Mounts
Blizzard has posted a preview of Legion PvP. Here are the highlights:
Honor and Conquest are no longer currencies. Honor Points instead increase your Honor Level. As you increase your Honor, you'll get gold, artifact power, and Honor Talents.
Honor Talents are an additional set of talents that are active when players are in PvP instances/combat.
In PvP content, you will get a preset set of stats for your specialization. Your set bonuses, enchants, legendary bonuses, or trinkets will be deactivated.
Gear can still improve your character in PvP, but as an example, a 25 item level difference will result in a 2.5% difference, not a 25% difference.
There are no specific PvP stats or fluctuating item levels in Legion. You can still earn some gear through PvP and we've datamined many items yesterday:
Vindictive PvP Gear
.
End-of-season PvP rewards will be awarded separately to the top percentages of players in each faction, not overall playerbase.
Prestige Levels: Reach Honor Level 50, which grants access to high-level PvP talents. Or you can turn in your Honor Level to gain a prestige level for rewards (titles, artifact appearance, mount, pet)
Possible datamined rewards include:
Prestigious War Wolf
,
Prestigious War Steed
, , , , , ,
Shorter PvP seasons which mean more frequent rewards.
Two new arenas:
Ashamane's Fall
and
Black Rook Hold Arena
We have created a series of PvP Talent Calculators, which you can browse
here
. We also have a
database of PvP Talents
organized by spec and class.
Every Man For Himself Alpha Changes, Winter Veil Mount and Pet Sale, Outland Timewalking Event

King Varian Wrynn of Stormwind is dead. Warchief Vol'Jin of Orgrimmar is missing in action.
Any remaining heroes willing and able to defend our world should report to the Violet Citadel in Dalaran and speak to Archmage Khadgar and the Council of Six immediately!

Welcome to Stormwind Keep, the heart of the human kingdom.
Enter the Keep straight ahead and make your introduction to King Anduin.
He is expecting you.

Combustible Contagion
:
It is true that we may have a lead on Sylvanas, and I want nothing more than to get my hands on the Banshee Queen, but the situation here at Greywatch requires immediate attention. Recently our guards have been spotting activity in the nearby woods. Not long after, several of them have fallen victim to vicious plague attacks. It appears that the Forsaken have discovered our camp, and are planning on unleashing a plague upon it. Find and destroy their plague caches before we lose more good soldiers!
Whispers from the Dark
:
We still have little knowledge of the Horde's activities in the region, but I'm hoping you can help change that. Lately the woods have been crawling with Sylvanas's agents. The few we have taken out have carried orders from her Dark Rangers, who are no doubt in command of her forces here. While you're on the hunt, keep an eye out for any scouting orders. They may help us pinpoint Sylvanas's objective in the area.
