##NOLIGHTBOX##It doesn’t look like patch 2.4 will change much about class (im)balance, but there are some interesting changes so far. Looks like we’ll be doing the same thing again: farm reputation, Badges of Justice, and honor.
Here’s what awaits those of us on the frontlines.
New PvP cloaks, this time with spell haste:
Battlemaster’s Alacrity is a new BM trinket, again with spell haste:
This head enchant might be useful for those with poor PvP gear and lack of stamina and resilience:
New battleground repeatable quest (you can complete this as many times you want per day, but you’ll get the gold only once):

That Deathfrost enchant is obscenely cheap. D:
I reckon. I wonder if it procs off every DOT tick, cause that would be sooo OP (but sooo AWESOME)
Yay for more welfare epics!
And yay for a new PvP daily, that will give me something to do with all the darn tokens sitting in my bank.
It’s really repeatable throughout the day? Do you get the 314 bonus honor each time?
Yes, it’s repeatable; you get the gold only once but honor each time
Nice, I’ve been dumping my tokens since I don’t even get the potions anymore.
Also, this will be great easy to get gear for alts to start off with =). I’m kind of bummed though. No welfare pvp boots? =P
There was some talk about new rep items for AB/WSG/AV, perhaps we’ll be able to get boots there.
