After I saw how much confusion, false information is spread on the forums and ingame I decided to stop this cancer and make a list of the absolute best gear for a warrior who wants to 1shot **** in duels, battlegrounds and maybe arena.
Too many people wasted their coins on t9 ****, check out this 20 seconds video to get your BIS list for prot warr.
The only thing I can think of would be the weapon choice, some people like the axe, some like the sword, I personally like the sword more(mostly because of looks)
Both are pretty good, but with axe you will have to change some gems from strength to hit and arp, this will cause you to lose some block value and attack power(153 ap to be exact) while gaining 1.13% crit chance.
The weapon damage would look like this:
Sword 1747-2178
Axe 1743-2199
Sword block value: 2018
Axe block value: 1966
As you can see, both weapons are enough to reach the desired block value, which is at least 1960
Block value softcap formula is like this 24,5*player level, it was added in patch 3.3.2 after blizzard decided that 20k shield slams on pvp geared people is not really a fair thing to have around.
Now that you have your BIS prot pvp list, go there and oneshot that ****ing mage.
wtb SS with recount, without trinkets. only shield block and glyph proc
edit: before u post - a you really gm of molten? if not - post SS from molten, srsly, not ur private emu.
I already have this gear on my char, but I'm using different gems(I'm playing with about 500 resi because I cba getting crit 16k by warlocks since I mostly focus on arena)
yep bis only cause block value still isnt how it should be so this is way to go but i still got bv set just for memories :( and arp crit set like you got exactly the same only bad thing with this gear is you block less dmg vs mele so you get hited harder comparing to stacking block value
and sword is way to go never enough hit rating especialy if you are horde bugged nelf racial ftw
ps screw resilience

What's wrong with block value? what's bugged about it?

BV set was an exploit everyone wasted coins on. ICC shield and 2 prot t10 is all that's needed to succeed in pvping in the set.

so, ye i got the point - u aint even using set, you've suggested =D
