I heard some people talking about the lower ilvl in PVP.
Is this still a thing, is t2 of this new season going to be just as good as t2 last season In arena?

Incoming 5.3 Gear Changes
With all of this in mind, we’re making some pretty dramatic changes to PvP gear and the PvP environment in 5.3:
- Base Resilience will be set to 65% for all characters level 85 and higher
- Resilience will be removed from nearly all PvP gear
- Players will still be able to use Resilience gems and enchants
- PvP power will remain exclusively on PvP gear
- PvP set bonuses that currently provide Resilience will now provide PvP Power
- Healers and hybrid-casters will benefit to a greater degree from PvP Power, and Battle Fatigue will increase to make PvP gear superior for healers.
- Conquest gear will be increased to item level 496 (up from 493).
- Elite gear will be decreased to item level 496. This gear will essentially become a prestige upgrade.
- The Big Change: We will be adding an item level ceiling to gear in unrated Battlegrounds, Rated Battlegrounds and Arenas
- All gear will have its item level scaled down to 496 (Conquest gear item level). This includes even Conquest items that exceed the ilevel ceiling, such as weapons.
Edit: maybe a link to an elite weapon will help, too: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/item/91399
->T2 of this season is ilvl512, which will be scaled down to 496 in 5.3 (similar to the scaling in challenge modes right now on live)

Yeah, that basically means that tier 2 will be useless since the previous seasons t2 2/2 is 498, which will also be scaled down to 496.
That is correct, as long as they don't change anything.

Why is it a shame? Cuz u can't get an advantage gearwise anymore when u spam RBG's as a prot tank 1337 skilled player? Only fools think this is a bad change.
Everything you post is trash talking utter useless garbage.

Wait... any rating requirements ? Like the 2200 last season or 2250/2350 in Wotlk ?
For the moment i only think T2 is going to be for the people who had 27000+ conquest points, and that is absolutely not a prestige upgrade in this case lol...
Only prestige is going to be the 2500+ rating requirements items (in 3s/5s/RBGs) :
