Honor
A currency. You earn it by defeating players, completing battlegrounds and finishing PvP quests, and you spend it on PvP gear.
PvP ranks and rewards
How Honor and Rank Points work in WoW Forever, what each of the fourteen ranks unlocks and how the PvP gear is bought. Everything here comes from Blizzard's own PvP post.

Two tracks: Honor and Rank Points
Rank Points
The track that raises your PvP rank. Battlegrounds and PvP quests give them, and ranks have a weekly cap.
Where Honor comes from
- Defeating players
- Completing battlegrounds
- Finishing PvP quests
- Extra Honor from the highlighted battleground of a holiday week
Where Rank Points comes from
- Battlegrounds
- PvP quests
- A boost during holiday weeks
- A weekly cap on how many count
Ranks 1 to 14 and their rewards
Blizzard lists what you can reach at each rank. The post does not give the Rank Points each rank needs, so we show none. The top rank is High Warlord for the Horde and Grand Marshal for the Alliance.
| Rank | Reward |
|---|---|
| 1 | Tabard |
| 2 | PvP trinket |
| 3 | Cloaks |
| 4 | Necklace |
| 5 | Combat potions |
| 6 | Tabard |
| 7 | Battle standard |
| 8 | Epic bracers or belt token |
| 9 | Epic boots token |
| 10 | Epic gloves token |
| 11 | Mounts |
| 12 | Epic legs or shoulders token |
| 13 | Epic chest or helm token |
| 14 | Epic weapons |
PvP gear
- Honor buys one blue PvP set and one epic set.
- The epic upgrade needs the blue piece and an Emboldened Seal, and the Seal has rank requirements.
- Shaman now have three PvP sets: healer, melee and caster.
Good to know
- Honor rates were evened out between battlegrounds, so Alterac Valley is no longer the only efficient choice.
- The top ranks are High Warlord for the Horde and Grand Marshal for the Alliance.
- Open the Character Pane (C) and pick the PvP tab to see your rank, your Rank Points and the rewards you can reach.
- A seasonal journey adds weekly tasks that give Honor and Rank Points. Three tasks per season also give a Legacy Point, and the tasks stay available in later seasons.
