Emblems of Conquest from Heroic Dungeons?

[Klesh]

According to the PTR patch notes (http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...99680776&sid=1), Heroism and Valor no longer drop, and...

Any dungeons that previously dropped Emblems of Heroism or Valor, such as Naxxramas or Heroic Halls of Stone, will now drop Emblems of Conquest instead. Emblems of Conquest can still be converted to Valor or Heroism.

...any dungeon like heroic Halls of Stone will now drop Conquest. Sounds awesome for those of us who don't raid at all. :)

I'm seeing a ton of nice changes. Looks like a pretty big patch.

Mounts @ 20 and 40, flyers @ 60: I'm kinda "meh" about this one, but I'm an old timer that had to walk barefoot (on my trolls, that is) through snow (in Winterfall), and uphill for my questing.
Shaman totem bar: Freakin' bad ass! 'Bout time, I'm gonna have to call that a major shammy buff.
Emblems change: Also pretty bad ass, since I don't raid either.

I also like the changes to stuff like WSG (not that I've been in any BG since level 70, but still if I ever want to farm honor again, it's a nice change)

PvP experience (with the ability to turn it off): May instill enough interest for me to make a 5 man twink PvP team.

Over all, can't wait for the patch. I'm actually not playing right now since I have a lot of 'summer' stuff going on, but will probably reinstate my accounts soon.

Battleground experience has arrived!

Thank god they brought that back. I leveled my 1st toon to 60 Pre-BC by mainly doing PVP . I missed the exp you used to get. It was a fun way to level.

Leveling in bg's is gonna be bad ass. Youll get xp and by the time your done have all the BG gear lol.

P.S.

All new Argent Crusader daily quests and rewards have been added for players with the Crusader title. Rewards include a new Argent Crusader banner and tabard (which can port players to the tournament grounds), a mounted squire (can periodically run bank, mail or vendor errands for the player), a paladin-exclusive Argent Crusader Charger mount, and new heirloom items.


Nice.

That is another thing that made leveling in BG's so awesome. When i quit playing battlegrounds on my warrior I was Lt. Gen with all epics except my weapons ... and people know who you where because you pvp'd so much .... i dont know i really miss the pvp titles .. there was something really kewl about that ...

[Enndo]

Yeah I would really like to see pvp ranks/titles come back I still dont understand why they were ever removed.

[TeK23]

The titles where removed like everything else. "Whiners!"

My original Rogue was GM and it was the worst grind you've ever could imagin. Only people that plays hours and hours for a weeks to get to GM level because how the old system worked. People would bitch and whine and so blizzard created the new honor system to make it "Easier" for casuals to get gear.

Just like now, blizz keeps dropping the epic hard stuff down to a casual level and I really hope the addition of the NEW** Heroic system that it's actually "Hard". Like Original Naxx Hard. Where guilds would dump 1000's of gold on a run to to and learn the bosses and how to beat them. Back when you killed a boss it ment something, not like it is now.

PvP titles weren't removed, they're just not obtainable anymore.

My only gripe with the old PvP system was you couldn't take a break. It took me 3 weeks to go from rank 7 -> 8, then I had a week vacation and came back at rank 6. So for not playing one week I lost a month's worth of progress. I pretty much gave up after that.
