BoA tanking set

[Enno]

Eh, on an item like that, it's like 3 spellpower for a bit of melee damage on a caster weapon.

 

[Kore nametooshort]

plus on the 4.1 ptr all the dmg of BOA weapons has gone up a bit too. this is on a lvl 10, but you get idea.



From this

to this

Can you confirm that this is all BoA weapons? Iirc Devout Aurastone had substantially lower damage than other looms so this might be a "fix" from Blizz's point of view.

Lovestotwink?

If you have anymore spare time, could you see if vends charge damage has increased, for a level 19?

All dps BOAs have the same dps on PTR as live....just checked.

Kinda surprised they would introduce an entire tanking set and not add a shield.

this. also, i shudder.. i may just give up on trying to kill paladins now... >_<

 

[Kuzz.]

This might have already been answered, but will the helm require guild rep + 1500g like the others?

Or is the whole set bought for Justice Points?

 

[Caulfield]

I would say



Helm/Cape ~ Gold (guild rep)

Shoulders/chest/sword ~ JPs

 

[subpar]

those tank shoulders look badass, so regardless of stats im gonna get these for my prot set

 

[Kalki]

I wonder if these will be available from Champion's Seals. That would be great.

Well, if they add a shield, they should also add Off-hand. Should add a trinket since the int or haste trinket BoA aren't useful for tanker.

WTB hit/crit/stam BoA relic for my druid

 

[Enno]

Relic would be OP!

Come on PTR peoples! This is the most important question out there atm. Justice Points are one thing, but will these items be available through the other in-game means? I am going to personally doubt honor as these items have PvE stats and so they would not mesh with the current model of how BoAs are made available. Champion's Seals would be awesome though.

i verified on the current PTR you can buy them for 60 champion seals apiece.
