Upcoming r14 gear like fast offhands etc

[nervous]

I'm going to guess you'll have to regrind since casuals will bitch about it if it was the other way around. Throw a dev a well written PM if you want an answer though

In the current Nost patch (somewhere around 1.02) you would have to hold your current ranking to buy the items from that rank. For instance, if you dropped down from rank 13 to 11, you would not be able to purchase the epic armor available at rank 13.

In patch 1.6 this was changed (http://www.wowwiki.com/Patch_1.6.0 under PvP changes) "Honor system reward items with a rank requirement will now require a lifetime "highest rank" of that rank, rather than requiring the character to currently have the required rank."

Since the UI is hard coded with the 1.12 client patch, you do see your highest rank attained, but that does not mean you should be able to purchase items from your highest rank, until a later patch.

pretty much this. old r14's had to redo the grind to get the new weapons back in the day.
sorry.

I would like a clarification on this too please ! for example rank 11 mounts to use them you must maintain ur R11 rank?? doesnt work with highest rank?? Would be great a clarification !

I can confirm that you can both equip gear from a rank you were previously but deranked from and that you can use the rank11 mounts if you derank.

you can use mount and weapons/gear whenever u want, but you need have required rank to buy them

so basicly when u get rank 14 you want to but all weapons couse once you drop down you cant buy anymore, but you can always use what you already own (weapons, mounts, gear)

Bump. but seriously not a single reply from the staff? a simple "yes, no, maybe, we are disccusing the matter" would do. do we have to regrind later or not?

[Pottu]

Yes, no, maybe, we are discussing the matter

[Momoh]

Yes, no, maybe, we are discussing the matter

I'm not an admin and I was not being snarky .

what about now

[Pottu]

There will be an announcement when the team is ready to make one. I thought that would be obvious. There goes my attempt at being funny. My apologies.

[Momoh]

Fantastic
