General PvP Overview

Upon reaching the max level and completing world quests, only two methods for character advancement exist.

1. Players can do Dungeon runs.

2. They can engage in Player Versus Player (PvP) activities.

The PvP aspect of the game tends to attract the more competitive of gamers, and is rewarding to players in a number of aspects.

The gear attained through pvp is as good as, if not better than gear attained through dungeon runs.

World of Warcraft is indeed a community based game, and there is no better way to become known within the community than to dominate the battlefield.

There really is no better feeling in the game than seeing yourself at the top of the scoreboard.

Important Character Statistics for PvP

The easiest way to start topping the kill charts is to properly gear your character. In many cases a character with all Uncommon quality gear that chooses the right statistics (stats) will fare much better than a character wearing rare quality gear with the wrong type of stats. Of course, the type of stats that should be chosen depends on what type of character is being played. In order from most important to least important, the best pvp stats are.
