The release of Patch 7.3 for World of Warcraft: Legion is just around the corner. In a few weeks, we will finally be able to enter Argus and dive into new instances. But there are also new features for fans of well-crafted PvP.
Looks good and strong too: The Sets
If you’re not interested in raids, instances, and PvE in general, but still want to transmog the T-21 set without annoying LFR farming, you can breathe easy. The new PvP sets have identical models to the T-21 set. Only the colors are different. The “Gladiator” set is, as usual, primarily available from the rated modes.
For those who prefer to pass the time with some skirmishes, there are also new “Fighter sets.” Lovers of unranked battlegrounds or PvP world quests can also catch a glimpse of the appearance of the new sets on the PTR.
The stats of the Gladiator set are higher than those of the Fighter sets and increase their base stats with rising PvP rating.
- We have compiled the appearance of all T-21 sets for you here.
- The color variations of the sets for the Gladiator version can be found summarized on wowhead.
Mounts and Glory!
More important than sets and transmog for most people, however, may be the rewards that can also be shown off: Prestige and mounts. With Patch 7.3 and seasons 5, 6, and 7, prestige levels 19 to 21 will also be introduced.
Upon reaching Prestige 20, we can expect, among other things, the “Prestigious King’s Charger“, a variant of the armored warhorses that we could also earn in previous seasons.
Additionally, there is at least one more fox mount, the “Vicious War Fox”, which can be purchased with a “Terrifying Saddle” from Necrolord Sipe in Stormwind or Deathwatch Netharian in Orgrimmar. The saddles can be obtained for 40 won rated battlegrounds or for 100 won arena games in a season.

Additionally, as every season, the top 0.5% of players can expect a Gladiator title as well as the Demonic Storm Dragon of the Gladiator.
What about you? Are these rewards enough reason to brawl with other players? Do they provide an incentive to give PvP a chance, or is time in Azeroth fully booked with PvE? Let us know your opinion in the comments!
By the way, Blizzard’s plan to make LFR harder seems to already be bearing fruit.
