Been Around Since MOD 4; Just Started PVP Campaign Fresh! Need Tips

Hi all, like the title suggests, I just started PVP with my lvl 70 Prot/Bulwark OP.

I need help as after a few matches, I noticed no point accumulation on the PVP campaign towards boons. Since I'm a wee little nub, I've only been doing the 10v10 matches and wanna keep at it until I get a set of actual PVP gear (no PVP gear obtained whatsoever :S).

I hope for some tips on how to knock out those boons first of all; maybe I came about it all wrong.

I also would like to know the fastest legit methods of accumulating glory so I can get me some PVP gear. sitting at 3.5k-ish Glory.

Right now, as far as capabilities are concerned, I actually feel like I'm pretty helpful. If anything I'm a brick wall for the enemy PuGs trying hopelessly to whittle away my health (then some bis TR comes and takes all those feel-goodz away xD). Can't do damage worth a **** though hah.

For some reason I have 0 progress in the PVP campaign, which I thought was odd but again I am a newbie in this field (PVP). Clarification would be nice on what needs to be done.

I do know of using that +25% Glory starter pack and silvery ench's, but besides that i'm at a loss for what I need to do to get more glory.

Help/advice is very much appreciated.

    You sound like a cool guy. I'll chime in.


    - Press the FLAG icon on the top bar and go to PVP and see your progress (If you weren't aware of this, do it)

    - Best way to get glory is to do GG 10v10. You get glory AND Grim coins that can be converted for more glory

    - Some campaign achievements are bugged for Gauntlgrym (IE: Double, triple kills)


    If you have any other questions quote me.

    You'll have a rough time getting the actual campaign 100% done as a Tank specced paladin (just due to low actual damage, getting doubles and triples will be a pain), but what GWA said above is probably the best tips to get started. I've always seen most of the campaign as just little added bonuses, rather than a campaign I need to finish.
    People are way too negative, Why cant we just all get along.

    Thanks for the response! Yeah I know about the campaign window; I should probably look at those achievement and hope that i'm...err achieving them... As an SW, I didn't bother checking the achievements because, well yeah, I'm an SW xD. I need to remember to look at those though.

    Also the grym coins! Those do help a whole lot!

    My aim is to not spend any money on this OP since most of my money is dumped on the SW already, don't need to support another toon or I'd go bankrupt! xD

    I figured some of the achievements would be obviously difficult, but I guess time will tell. My goal is to get either burning chest or helm first and then second within a month. Then finish the armor set and start work on the accessories.

    Take care! Stay swell!

    In a couple weeks if you're still playing, I'll come help you a bit in these tasks, we can duo-queue. With me as a partner, it's almost as if you had Minsc with you. I'm solid as ****!

    In a couple weeks I'll add you and we can party up and kick some ***.

    Yeah I got bored with the lackluster PVE content and extremely slow grind to 70, first on my SW, and then on this OP. I decided to wing it on PVP one day and found that I matter on my team! Yayyy!!!! xD even with the green/blue PVE equipment (plus arti weap/offhand) ilvl 1620-ish the opposing team has a hard time killing me and that was when I decided I wanna do PVP now that I have a class to do it with.

    I wanna knock out other boons too, but the low damage makes it extremely tedious to get through quests. Hopefully some nice PVP gear will help somewhat, at least compared with what I'm wearing now.

    Rawful muh-fay-oh.

    Minsc strong like russian bear!

    Yeah I'd love any help I can get! I'm in a guild with older guys who have done all they needed in PVP and can't seem to generate interest with them to help out a squire.
