Yes we also only get Protector.

Actually, on the last 3 kills of Archimonde, we have had the exact same loot when it comes to T6, except for one of the Protector was Vanquiser once.

Usually the Bow and Leggings of Eternity drops, we got the Cataclysm's Edge on the first kill tho.

Our raid leader just said that all raiders need to get the medallion of the horde or whatever it's called for archimonde. Me, I hate PvP and I've only ever been to AV (for the polearm while leveling this char) and never arenas because of this (got a 70 warlock who's never done pvp and have like 10 honorkills).

So I just told him that he can replace me for the archi fight since I wont ruin my gametime by PvPing. Razz


PvPing to be able to PvE ftl!

It's one thing to be asked by a RL to do BGs to obtain an item that's basically essential for a boss fight (like the trinket for Archimonde). It's another thing entirely to be asked to get an 1850 arena rating (which basically requires a lot of pre-arena time doing BGs to get a set of S1 gear, followed by multiple weeks of arenas to improve rating and pool points) to improve gear so you can improve your DPS...

Enkal, sitting your warlock out for Archimonde completely removes you from the possibility of getting the best one-handed caster blade in the game (Tempest of Chaos), as well as one of the best head pieces in the game (Hood of the Malefic). It sucks, and I know this because I just had to grind the honor for it, but you should probably do yourself a favor and grab that trinket.

Have fun in AV :-/

LoL, yeah, it's a crappy grind. My guild wasn't even thinking of working on Archimonde the week that we started him. It was our first real week of Hyjal attempts and all of a sudden we had the first four bosses down with one raid night (a monday) to go.

We had guildies grind the entire 16.9K honor in one weekend. Yech... especially in a battlegroup where Horde absolutely FAILS at AV: "defense? what's that? everyone rush Vann!"
