Old Arena Weapons MIA

Not long ago I purchased the "Merciless Gladiator's Hacker" using BG honor points and was waiting until I had enough honor points to get the "Merciless Gladiator's Cleaver." Time passed, new toons were introduced and I did not get back to get the Cleaver until the other week. These items used to be sold by Captain O'Neal in Champions Hall (SW) when he was "Weapons Quartermaster." Now he is an Gem Vendor and the weapons are all gone. In fact I cannot seem to find any of the level 70 PVP weapons in the hall anymore. The level 60 weapons are there but not the 70's. Additionally, I have run to the arena vendors in Negrand and Netherstorm and Quel'Danas, but they are still MIA.

Is anyone else seeing the same problem? Where have all the weapons gone? I have done a scrub on the forums and have not seen any posts addressing this, so if there is one I have missed, please point me to it.

They were removed.

Aye.

As arena seasons progress, many of the older items are removed. Once we moved into Wrath of the Lich King, those items were removed.

So then what level 70 weapons can be bought with Honor points from the BG's? I am not an arena player, but stockpiled up honor from earlier BG. Silly me thinking that I would be able to use the points down the road.


You absolutely can, and those Honor Points can serve you in extremely good stead at 80 =).
