Compendium of 80 PvP Gear

For someone new coming into PvP, looking at gear can be frustrating, as there are sets of gear and nobody really has a concise list of PvP gear organized by quality. All of the data on PvP gear is scattered throughout the webosphere. Here is a list of gears in an order that I would reccomend upgrading.

Frostsavage Set
This is a decent set to start off with if you have zero pvp gear as it is tailor...

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like, unlike the armor, the only available PvP weapons are the Furious variant (which require high Arena rating to get).

Is there any way to get the Deadly or Hateful variant of weapons (wand, sword, off-hand) for honor somewhere?

If you can't, any advice for getting a decent wand (I bought the titansteel spellblade and iron-bound tome from the auction house...they will suffice until I can figure out Arena)?

Thanks in advance for any help/guidance!
The only "pvp weapon" that I've seen at level 80 that does not require an arena rating is the Bind to Account Greater Staff of Jordan. I think it was Blizzard's intention to make having pvp weapons an accomplishment, meaning you have to have earned them moreso than grinding honor from wintergrasp. Because of RL business I personally am far too casual a player to really fathom Arenas. I have a full pvp set built from badge hateful gear, the wg mark gear, one or two deadly pieces that dropped from Vault of Archavon, and I am pretty sure the only way to add resilience to a weapon slot without stepping into the Arenas (i.e. for the casual pvper like me) is to build up 325 Stone Keeper's Shards and purchase a BoA Staff of Jordan from the WG vendor. Even then, it seems kind of silly because said staff has a bunch of hit rating on it... oh well, they say you have to have a little bit. As far as wands go, I like the Plague Igniter from Naxx 25 even though it doesn't have resilience.

Re: Compendium of 80 PvP Gear

For the record:

gear/gear (singular/plural) - the stuff we equip our toons with in WoW.

gear/gears (singular/plural) - drivetrain component in automobiles, on bikes, etc.

If you are talking about equipment in WoW, you should not be using the word 'gears'...the proper word you are looking for is 'gear'. No 's' required, in fact the addition of the letter 's' changes the meaning entirely.
