Season 7 begins tomorrow

ImageThe seventh arena season kicks off tomorrow in Europe, having started today on American realms.

A new season, a new gear set and a new shift in perspective are coming for arena players tomorrow. The biggest change in season seven will be in the 2v2 bracket, where high ratings will not qualify players for the new shoulders or weapons any more. The game's smallest bracket also will not be counted for titles such as 'Relentless Gladiator' at the end of the season.

From Blizzard:

"Beginning with season 7, players will no longer have access to the newest season's weapons or shoulder armor and will not qualify for the Gladiator title/rewards with ratings from the 2v2 bracket alone. Ratings obtained through 3v3 and 5v5 game play will be required for these rewards, while the rest of the newest season's items will remain available to players in all brackets (standard rating restrictions still apply)."


Most of the graphics for the new sets have been available for some time but the complete list, including stats, is slightly more recent. MMO-Champion has the complete rundown. Newly respecced/rerolled enhancement shamans will no doubt be licking their lips at the prospect of one-hand weapons with 216.5 DPS.
