A few questions !!

[FrozenStarr]

1. How to get items like: "unassebled Battlemaster covert tech gloves" needed for PvP gear?

2. Mercenary commendations can be bought only for 30 warzone commendations? Is it the only way to get them?

3. I heard about"champion quests" what is it?

4. Flashpoints / Operations rewards are only "possible" drop of good items from bosses?

 

Thanks!

1. You need to open Battlemaster gear bags, which you can (currently) only get from doing Daily/Weekly PvP quests at level 50. You can only open these bags at Valor rank 60, and they are unique (can only hold one at a time). These will sometimes give you a token which you can exchange for the piece of gear labelled. In the 1.1 patch coming sometime in the next week or two, they're changing it to a generic token that you can turn in for any item type.

 

2. Yes. You used to be able to get them from security chests in open PvP areas, but I believe they removed them after a week or two, since most people didn't know about them, only a handful of people camped them and made bank.

 

3. Presumeably they're talking about getting Champion gear bags from the same Daily/Weekly quests mentioned above. When you complete them you can choose between a Champion Bag (strong PvP gear) or a Battlemaster Bag (even stronger PvP gear). Champion bags can be opened up at any Valor Rank, and Battlemaster only at 60+. Since they're unique, you can't stockpile them. So, you'll want to pick Champion bags until you hit Valor rank 60. These follow a similar token system mentioned above. SOMETIMES you get a token, which you can trade in. Most of the time you get Centurion Commendations, which you use as currency to buy a weaker PvP set.

 

4. Yes, it's always a matter of random chance. The only way to guarantee you get something, is to keep doing them, accumulate some currency (whether its tokens from PvE or PvP) and purchase the exact piece you want. But, these tend to buy you average strength gear. Getting the absolute best stuff is a combination of doing tough content, and random chance.
