With Apexis Crystals, you can get good gear in World of Warcraft – almost equally effective is pure gold!
Honor where honor is due
In World of Warcraft, it is currently quite easy to obtain decent gear, with which one can easily approach the new raid “Hellfire Citadel”. Just like back then with the “Timeless Isle”, there are again some mechanics in this expansion that help newcomers and returnees catch up quickly. We have already talked about the possibility of Apex Crystals, but it’s even faster with pure gold.
With Patch 6.2, a new item was introduced through Garrison missions, the “Honor of the Champion“. This item grants 1000 Honor Points and 1000 Conquest Points upon use – up to 2 times per week. This allows you to purchase solid gear of item level 700 in Ashran. Since the “Honor of the Champion” is not soulbound, you can also fish it out of the auction house, depending on the server, the price ranges from 5,000 to 15,000 gold. This is definitely within the scope of what one can farm in a relaxed evening in the old raid instances of Cataclysm. The YouTuber Bellular Gaming presents this method:
The gear is designed for PvP, but the sheer amount of stats ensures that you can wreak havoc through normal mode raids – for heroic or mythic raids, you should turn to other gear.
