Hey everyone, your old Champion/Battlemaster/Centurion are no longer being used in patch 1.2. They do not disappear, you just can’t use them to purchase armor anymore (they are no longer obtainable either). So the question is – what are they being used for now?
Centurion PvP gear is no longer sold by vendors.
Champion PvP gear has being downgraded to blue quality (to 126) and renamed to Recruit XXX where XXX is the name of the armor piece. These pieces no longer have any moddable slots and can be purchased from vendors for credits.
Warzone commendations now caps at 2000 and is used to purchased the Battlemaster gear, which no longer have a valor requirement. You can still purchase the Mercenary Commendations at a rate of 10 Mercenary Commendations per 30 Warzone Commendations but they no longer have any use in directly purchasing PvP armor.
The new tier of PvP Armor – War Hero – is purchased via Ranked Warzone Commendations, which are obtained via playing warzones.
So the question you are probably wondering, what are your Champion/Centurion/Battlemaster commendations now used for?
There are now two PvP vendors near the PvP Terminal, the vendor for PvP items is the guy/gal you are looking for. He/she will exchange your old PvP commendations items. The exchange rate are as follows.
