There has been a new type of Optional Reagent slot added in Patch 10.1 that grants the ability to turn any Epic Quality piece of gear into a PvP item. These Optional Reagents can be purchased with Honor or Conquest and will increase the item’s item level during Arenas and Battlegrounds.
New PvP Optional Reagents
All pieces of crafted gear, Pre-Embellished and Unembellished, have the ability to add a new Trophy of Conquest or Crest of Honor as an Optional Reagent.
