As of 1:15Am Central time my Sith Juggernaut is level 50 Valor.

After opening countless bags as I am freaking level 50 valor, I have amassed an Epic collection of ONE Champion piece. It is an amazing Belt.

I do however have enough commendations to buy 2 full sets of Pvp gear that is much worse than my Orange quest gear with purple mods.

My wife is a level 19 Valor healer. She has 4 piece Champion gear.

Working as intended.
