The Children’s Week’s achievements lead me to some regular PvP which made me realize I needed to spend some honor points. With the new content patch and arena season I saw the gear selection for us solo PvPers has been changed as well. So as it typical after a content patch I’ve updated my PvP gear wish list from my original PvP gear post.
[Titan-forged Plate Helm of Triumph]
[Deadly Gladiator's Pendant of Triumph]
[Hateful Gladiator's Dreadplate Shoulders]
[Deadly Gladiator's Cloak of Triumph]
[Titan-forged Breastplate of Triumph]
[Deadly Gladiator's Bracers of Triumph]
[Hateful Gladiator's Dreadplate Gauntlets]
[Titan-forged Girdle of Triumph]
[Hateful Gladiator's Dreadplate Legguards]
[Titan-forged Greaves of Triumph]
[Hateful Gladiator's Band of Triumph]
[Deadly Gladiator's Band of Victory]
[Battlemaster's Conviction] or [Anvil of Titans]
See the original PvP gear post for a good starter PvP set and details on the reasons behind the stats. In short here are the stats you are looking for.
Hit – 5%
Spell Penetration – 130 to 145
Resilience and Stamina – Top stats but need to be balanced with offensive stats.
Strength – Top damage stat once hit and spell penetration are done.
Crit – Ignore it, other players will have so much resilience stacked it won’t matter much.

Nice!
There’s a pretty good article that hits on adequately explaining Spell Penetration:

Just wanted to also state, I’m really glad to have happened upon your site. Straight forward. Simple. Ego-less. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Hi, thanks for the info, one question though. You say to ignore
Crit, then use a chaotic skyflare diamond, wouldn’t something
Like a powerful earthsiege diamond be better?
