So tailors can make 2 pieces ov pvp gear (not counting the back) but how does the unyielding set compare to the s3 stuff buyable through honor? It seems to me that tailoring is still screwed in terms of pvp gear:

Belt – Vindicator’s Dreadweave Belt (17,850 honour, 40 arathi basin) = 49 Stamina, 32 Intellect, 31 resilience, 41 spell damage. No socket.

Bracer – Vindicator’s Dreadweave Cuffs (11,794 honour, 20 warsong gulch) = 34 Stamina, 20 Intellect, 17 resilience, 29 spell damage, yellow socket (Bonus: +2 Spell Damage)

Assuming 4 resil, 6 stam gems the 2 combined give 89 stamina, 52 intellect, 52 resilience, 62 spell damage

vs.

Unyielding girdle = 28 Stamina, 20 resilience, 32 spell damage, blue socket, yellow socket (3 intellect bonus)

Unyielding bracers = 39 Stamina, 12 resilience, yellow socket (bonus: +2 Spell Hit Rating),

Unyielding girlde + bracers set bonus: increases resilience by 20.

With the set bonus and sockets filled with 4 resil, 6 stam steady talasite we get 85 stamina, 64 resilience, 3 intellect, 2 spell hit

So the vindicator’s belt and bracer compared to the unyielding set: Vindicators has 4 more stamina, 49 more intellect, 62 more spell damage. The unyielding set has 12 more resilience, 2 more spell hit. I didn’t do armor, but the gladiator stuff has more armor as well and looks to be the superior choice. The only thing is when season 4 comes out we’re not sure what will happen but the new stuff will probably be better than the s3 stuff I used for this analysis.

There could be a choice between the unyielding girdle and s3 belt however the s3 belt is superior in every way = (assuming steady talasite again for the 2 sockets unyielding girdle has) s3 belt has 9 more stamina, 29 more intellect, 3 more resilience, 9 more spell damage.

Why even bother giving tailoring a pvp set if it’s not really a viable choice? Sorry tailors but you need to go grind more honor because your profession is useless for pvp gear.
