How to farm Honor in WoW Forever
Honor comes from 3 kinds of PvP play. Battlegrounds and PvP quests also pay Rank Points.
| Honor source | What you do | Extra |
|---|---|---|
| Battlegrounds | Finish matches in any of the 4 maps | The highlighted map pays more in its holiday week |
| Player kills | Defeat other players in PvP | At the cap, a kill shows no Honor gained |
| PvP quests | Turn in PvP quests and the weekly season tasks | The weekly tasks pay Rank Points too |
- Queue for a battleground. Speak to a battlemaster in any capital city.
- Play the holiday map. In its holiday week, the highlighted battleground pays more Honor and more Rank Points.
- Finish the weekly tasks. Each task of the season journey pays Honor and Rank Points.
- Spend before 25,000. Your Honor stops at the cap, so buy gear while it comes in.
- Watch the PvP tab. Press C and pick Player vs. Player to see your rank and what you can buy.
A Pro can also farm the Honor on your 
level 60 character and buy the blue PvP set with it.

Build your Starter Pack →The WoW Forever Honor cap: 25,000
The Honor cap is 25,000. Blizzard raised it from 15,000 in its beta notes of 1 October 2026.
The same notes put the Honor price of most PvP gear and upgrade tokens up by about 50%. Blizzard named those higher costs as the reason for the bigger cap.
A notes update on 3 November changed kills at the cap. A player kill at 25,000 Honor now shows no Honor gained in the combat text or in chat.
The weekly cap Blizzard describes is on Rank Points. Rank Points move your rank, and Honor is the currency you spend.
Where to farm Honor: the 4 battlegrounds
WoW Forever has 4 
battlegrounds. Blizzard reviewed the Honor each one pays so the rates sit closer together.
Its stated aim: nobody should feel pushed into 
Alterac Valley for Honor alone. Play the map your group wins most.
| Battleground | In WoW Forever |
|---|---|
 Warsong Gulch | Classic map, back for Forever |
 Arathi Basin | Classic map, back for Forever |
| Alterac Valley | Classic map, Honor now in line with the others |
 Darkspear Islands | New 15v15 map for levels 30 to 60: 4 capture points and a central flag, 1st team to 2,000 points wins |
Queue at a battlemaster in any capital city. Darkspear Islands also has portals at the faction bases in the Barrens: Merchant Coast for the Horde and Northwatch for the Alliance.
Those bases hold the battleground quests and the reputation vendors of the Darkspear Raiders and the Theramore Expeditionary Force.
Rulesets, the Darkspear map and the rank track are covered in our WoW Forever PvP guide.
Marks of Honor from battlegrounds
Battlegrounds also pay Marks of Honor. Since the beta notes of 16 October, a stack of marks holds up to 30, up from 20.
On Darkspear Islands, marks go into the reputation quests at the faction bases. At Exalted, a short questline unlocks the faction's own tabard.
What Honor buys: the blue and the epic PvP set
Honor buys 2 PvP sets. Each blue piece is the base of an epic piece, so the blue set comes 1st.
An epic piece costs its blue piece plus an 
Emboldened Seal. Every seal has a rank requirement:
| Rank | What it unlocks |
|---|---|
| 8 | Upgrade tokens for epic bracers and belt |
| 9 | Upgrade token for epic boots |
| 10 | Upgrade token for epic gloves |
| 12 | Upgrade tokens for epic legs and shoulders |
| 13 | Upgrade tokens for epic chest and helm |
| 14 | Epic weapons |
Blizzard also added and reworked PvP items for specs that had none. Shamans now get a healer, a melee and a caster set.
All 14 ranks and their rewards are in our Rank 14 guide.
Honor farming with an LFCarry Pro
Order the rare PvP set, and a Pro plays battlegrounds on your level 60 character. The Pro earns the Honor and buys all 8 blue pieces at the PvP vendor.
The set needs no rank climb. A rank you want to hold is its own order on the same page.
The Pro can play your character, or you can queue inside our premade. Both ways cost the same.
Tell the chat your class and faction, and we plan the farm around your evenings.
From the source
Official“Honor comes from defeating other players, completing battlegrounds and finishing relevant PvP quests, with more Honor in highlighted battlegrounds during their holiday weeks. Honor gains were reviewed so rates are more consistent across battlegrounds, so players need not choose Alterac Valley for Honor efficiency. Honor buys a blue set and an epic set; the epic piece needs the blue piece plus an Emboldened Seal with a rank requirement. Rank rewards 8 to 14 (upgrade tokens, epic weapons). Weekly season journey tasks grant Honor and Rank Points; ranks have a weekly cap. Shaman get healer, melee and caster PvP sets. Character Pane (C), Player vs. Player tab.”
