Using the "regional equipment vendor" as gear for PVPing

JOE_WILLIE
So is it a viable option to buy the 5k AP random boxes right now to use as your gear in PVP? I'm currently working my way up the champ point ladder(around 45 CP). Is there something better I could be spending my AP on, besides stocking up on siege equipment also?

What's your opinion on the 5k and 20k AP random box of equipment/weapons, I've seen quiet a bit of grumble about it but I am enjoying buying a handful of 5k boxes and taking a gamble?

    If there are any sets you want from the towns like Desert Rose, Ravager, Morag Tong etc, you can do the quests and get 10 or so free boxes each day without spending AP.

    OP means the 5k boxes that include one set piece from the three sets that drop in a specified overland zone.

    It's still stupid rng no matter how you look at it. But if there's a zone that has two sets you're looking to get for various alts then it could work okay. Not a great way to get that sharpened spinner staff though.

    Its the same RNG as farming delve bosses.

    Except you can buy 100 'boss kills' with 500K AP, and do what you find is FUN instead of grinding stupid PVE.

    Some of the regional equipment vendor sets are very good for PvP, with that being said, the RNG on those are absolutely atrocious. I spent 4 million AP buying boxes in an attempt to get a weapon I needed, however, I did not even get that weapon type. That was 700+ boxes opened without a single sword, even bad trait-ed. Save your AP for helms, gold rings in the weekend vendor where is guaranteed.
