Having Become a PVP-Head….

Having played since vanilla, I was always into PVE first.  Raids, raids, and more raids.  I was often raid assist or formed the raids, and I even raid led in Cata.

But here it is…the end of 2013, and I have become a PVP junkie.

Rated BG in Gulch

I have always PVPd on the side.  A lot at first because I was on a RPPVP server, but even after I went to PVE servers I still was in the BGs and sometimes arenas.

Now though, I have my Oqueue every time I am on, my PVP addons, and my PVP friends on the real ID.  Not many PVP on my server, but I can always find the few and true to go into BGs with if nothing else.

I am a bit behind right now having only two pieces of grievous.  I had taken a break from rateds and lost my arena partners, so I have mainly been hanging out doing whatever I can.  But even in tyrannical gear, I am topping regular BGs in heals consistently.  Check out how much I overhealed everyone in this Alterac Valley- 10,250,219! (plus my DPS was 1,485,608)….

Also, I got the End of the Line achievement recently by single-handedly taking a mine cart in Silvershard Mines away from a SHADOW priest right before she was going to cap it.  I literally went HA out loud.  (then kicked myself for not getting it on FRAPS or screenshot)  I am also known to take on DKs, hunters, and boomkins by myself if completely bored in a battleground.

To announce my PVP-love to the world, I have now even transmogged my PVE gear (still low on the charts) to old PVP gear.  Since I was honor capped, I converted my honor to justice points and bought Lich King level PVP gear.  Here is what I came up with:

PVE to PVP

This outfit is basically level 80 PVP gear I got in Dalaran with a few other pieces:

Relentless Gladiator’s Mooncloth Robe
Relentless Gladiator’s Mooncloth Helm
I THINK I used the Relentless gloves and belt
Rime-Rift Shoulders
Waterfall Sandals
Tyrannical Gladiator’s Energy Staff

I have now started working on my first PVP video, and I hope to post it soon!

Current Status – No Transmog Needed!

I have been transmogging all my gear since transmog came out.  Currently though, I am just wearing my regular gear on my priest, Meridiane.

Meridiane has two sets of gear- PVE (which I am still working on) and PVP.

My PVE gear is only at 499 gear score and a mix of different things, but it looks pretty good together!  I only transmogged the belt- Bloodthirsty Fireweave Belt– to match.

Level 90 PVE gear

Main pieces used in the picture above: Cowl of the Exorcist, Chilblain Spaulders, Robes of Static Bursts.  I am having to use my Tyrannical PVP weapon because I could never get a PVE weapon above 463 to drop….

My main set though is:

Level 90 PVP Gear

I have been spending 95% of my time PVPing in rated BGs and arena, using oqueue addon a lot to find groups.  My gear is a mix of Malevolent and Tyrannical now.  To me, these level 90 sets of PVP gear are some of the best looking ever as far as priest gear goes!

After an AV match

This screenshot was after an Alterac Valley match.  I was really excited because out of 80 players, my priest was 3rd in heals.  I was actually first the whole BG until the last Drek’Thar area when I lost out to two others.

The main reason it was amazing to me though is because there were so many other healers in there that I outhealed- we had at least 13 healers on alliance side alone!  So yes, PVP is going really well for me right now.
