PVP Drops in Warbugs / Bloody Bay?

What's the deal with these zones. If I defeat someone there am I able to get PVP drops? Are they lower level?

Since the drops were added I've only managed to get any in Recluse's Victory.

Ehm, I think you should be able to get pvp recipes in Warburg/Bloody Bay/Sirens Call. If you get rep for a kill, you can get a recipe.

As for levels, god, I dunno. Assuming it works like normal recipe drops when exemplared work they'll be the level of the zone. Like if you get one in Warburg it'll be 38. That's what I'd think, anyway.

As Silas stated, if you are getting rep, you have a chance for a drop. The drop is at the level of your toon.

Actually, i heard that the other player has to be within 3 levels of you, regardless of "combat level". So if you're level 50, ex'd down to 25, and you beat a "pure" lvl 25 character, you won't get a drop. I may be wrong about this though.


-STEELE =)


Allied to all sides so that no matter what, I'll come out on top!
Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)

I've heard this also, and another weird thing when my stalker was 38 way back and pvp drops first came out I got a level 42 one in sirens 4 levels to high so I couldn't slot it. I don't think the specifics have ever been posted all just hearsay and guesses.

Not positive, but I think it works that way for arena. I know for sure that in Warburg I get drops on my lvl 41 off of lvl 50 toons. Everyone is exemped to same lvl in zone pvp. My drops are the same lvl of my toon that got the rep.

The only drops I have ever received were in Warburg.
Of course, I never tried anywhere else.

To summarize: one person got drops in Warburg, one did not. Therefore, you can get drops in Warburg.

Most people don't realize this, but I would say more than 25% of pvp drops are generated by AFK PvP IO farmers in Warburg. As I'm typing this, there were at least three people (some with three accounts) doing this in WB on Justice. I say were because I just killed them. =D

Ah, so you're the one that's responsible for the going rate of PvP IOs.
