Overview
Hey guys, the names Kuzco. This is my first written guide to go along with the video below, I left a few things out to condense it for viewing purposes but figured if you needed a detailed rundown I could probably help you out as well. Enjoy the read and if you enjoy it send it too your pals.
The first section will cover PVE Gear BiS - The second will cover PvP Pre-Bis before getting that sweet Blue PvP Set.
Please feel free to stop by my Twitch Channel, and let me know where you found me! I'm live everyday I can be while I'm on the grind to Rank 14.

Easy to Obtain Alternatives
- Some of the BiS list is a tad on the unobtainable side for most players, so I'd like to add these suggestions for much more targetable gear set.

PVP Starter Gear
-
For our Leg, Chest, Feet, Wrist, and Shoulder slots, we CAN equip Necropile Raiment for some wild stamina and some half decent set bonuses OR we can go 300 Tailoring and get Robe of the Archmage.
-
We can also swap a non tailoring alternative in there, Robes of the Royal Crown which drops from Emperor Dagran Thaurissan in Blackrock Depths. Otherwise I'd reccomend challenging yourself, and getting that 5/5 Necropile Set! The extra Spell Power, with Stamina is WONDERFUL in almost every PvP situation!
