PvP Mark/Honor Spending

i_am_hyleon35 · July 25, 2008, 06:05 PM

Since S2 is out for honor, and my friend wants me to help him through the grind, I decided to give PvP a chance.
First question, since PvP armor covers all slots, would it be okay to take the Destro armor and spec for that?

Second question is how to use my marks, I have quite a few of each kind of mark, I can't figure out if I should just use the (for example) marks needed for my head slot, then put the rest into the 'For Great Honor' Quest, or save them up, and grind AV.
If that wasn't clear... Say i have 40 of each mark. Should i use 10 of each to get a little extra honor with the turn in, or should i save them for other items i will need, and grind AV for the honor?
Basically does Excess Marks-> Honor save more time than Save Marks and Grind?

Look at what marks you will need to for your future purchses and save em. Use the rest for turn ins.

Ok, thats what I was thinking. I have a bunch of extra WSG marks, but none of the others! Argh!

Yeah, I was maybe half way to getting all of my honor gear when I made my list of how many marks I needed. I was shocked:
20 WSG - DONE
10 AV - DONE (easy)
60 AB - Close
50 EotS - I'm glad it's EotS weekend

The belt (40 AB) and boots (40 EotS) are the two toughest. Everything else is pretty managable in one (long) day.

When I started playing again in S4 I just wanted to get the S2 dagger, but now I've been enjoying pvp and could kick myself for turning in all of my marks for extra honor.
