Get ready for even more PvP action!
Patch 79 introduces a new battleground, improvements to existing battlegrounds, special PvP gear and more!
New Battleground
Target your enemies, cut through your foes and earn points for victory in the
Shore Hold. Who will win the upper hand on this fast-paced 7v7 battleground?
Equalized Gear
Various battlegrounds have been updated, with the biggest change being that
you’ll receive equalized gear in certain arenas. Your skills make every difference
between victory and defeat!
PvP Gear
Fortunately, not every battleground will use this equalized gear. You can now
take all those hard-earned PvP points and exchange them for new gear. This
stuff not only looks fantastic, but the stats are tuned specially to meet your
PvP needs!
Training Dungeon
Take your gear on a trial run and optimize your damage output! In the training
dungeon, you can fine-tune your combat skills without having the boss breathing
down your neck. All the while you’ll be able to see your DPS and the duration of
combat. To provide more realistic combat situations, the room can also grant
you the usual slew of Priest and Mystic buffs.
More Dungeon Updates
Parting is such sweet sorrow, but it’s time to say farewell to the Harrowhold
and Dreadspire as they close their gates. Take the opportunity to run through
these two dungeons again for old time’s sake. But don’t worry, you’ll have no
time to get sentimental – Velik’s Sanctuary makes a return in this patch, plus
you can take Dakuryon to task again in the Shadow Sanguinary!
The gods have now recognized that you no longer need their help. With your
newly won powers, all classes have now awakened their Apex skills, so this patch
sees the removal of the “Favor of the Goddess” which was designed to balance out
these missing skills in dungeons.
