People on the forums are claiming they are doing this because of PVE. They don't want PVPers getting weapons before PVE'ers and they don't want PVE'ers getting welfare weapons. But I don't know if that's true.

lol...that sounds like more drama/angst than logic, there. Maybe Blizzard will clarify just so they can start deleting threads.

[edit] And wow, reading some of the whine threads in the PVP forums about this change is just painful. Where do they dredge up these bottom-feeders anyway? It's worse than barrens chat.

It sounds exactly like Blizzard logic to me.

Don't Conquest points get wiped when the new season starts?

Yes. They get wiped and converted to gold at a rate of 47 silver per point or something.

I was confused because I read:

http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2880562

At the end of the season, Conquest Points will be converted to Honor Points, possibly exceeding the 4,000 point Honor cap. All Season 9 items will cost Honor Points (equivalent to their previous Conquest Point cost) when the season ends, with the exception of any items with rating requirements attached. These items will no longer be available for purchase.


The next Arena and Rated Battleground season will begin for level-85 players approximately one week after the end of Season 9 and will coincide with the awarding of Season 9 titles and mounts. At that time, any Honor accrued above the 4,000-point cap will be converted into gold at a rate of 35 silver per point. In addition, Season 10 rewards will be made available for purchase with Conquest Points awarded during the new season. All Team and Personal Ratings will be wiped when Season 10 begins. Matchmaking Ratings, however, will carry over into Season 10.


__________

and then this:
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2723732

All existing Valor Points in the Currency tab have been converted to Justice Points. Any points above the Justice Point cap will be converted into gold at a rate of 47 silver per point and mailed to characters.

I mixed the two together

Also:


* Season 10 Conquest Point weapons will only be purchasable once a required minimum sum of Conquest Points has been reached during the current season. For example, Ruthless Gladiator's Pike costs 3400 Conquest Points to purchase. However, players must first earn a total of 11650 Conquest Points during Season 10 before they are able to purchase it.

* Season 9 Honor Point weapons will only be purchasable once a required minimum sum of Honor Points has been reached during the current season. For example, Vicious Gladiator's Pike costs 3400 Honor Points to purchase. However, players must first earn a total of 18500 Honor Points during Season 10 before they are able to purchase it.

* Once the minimum sum of points required to purchase weapons is reached, all available weapons can be purchased for their listed costs. The point requirement is not reset once a purchase is made.

* Weapon tooltips from the vendor will let players know how many more Conquest or Honor Points must be earned in the current season before the item can be purchased.



Why are they doing this?



What a frigging joke.... why do they come up with such pointless limitations.


I enjoy the occasional BG... its fun to jump in one or two when I log on but when will they get that it is NOT FUN to grind relentlessly for everything. It is not a frigging treadmill... coming to work each day is more fun than forced BG grinds and endless dungeon runs. This game is meant to be about enjoyment and I don't beleive for a second that people enjoy the repetitive grind that they insert in every aspect of the game.



And this is what promotes afk botting
