You can only hold a maximum of 4000 points, be sure to spend them.

Comment by Mage12322

Honor points are not toi hard to get, and you can now get heirlooms with honor. Useful :)

Comment by Aaro

There's a cap of how many of these you can have at a time (4000), but this is a grind-friendly currency, allowing you to gather as much as you want.

The fastest ways to earn honor would be:
* BG'ing on Call to Arms weekends
* Victory in Tol Borad
* Doing your daily BG

You can grind these by participating in any BG or while doing most PvP activities.

There are a lot of object's not in the list..

Comment by Sheerman

So...just noticed that I recived the immense ammount of 6 Honor Points for killing Ormorok the Treeshaper in Heroic Nexus while doing the Elder's of the Dungeons Achivement. And I'm lvl 85... Havent noticed getting honor points for any other dungeons or raids, but will investigate more now as I do Oldtime HCs and raids for Achives ;)

Sheerman...

* Edit : Just noticed that we won Wintergrasp at the same time as I started on Nexus HC. That will have something to say I guess since the "WOTLK Spirit Shards" no longer excist...

Comment by XSCounter

As of 4.0.6 you can spend Honor Points on PvP Enchants:

Shoulder:
Greater Inscription of Vicious Agility
Greater Inscription of Vicious Intellect
Greater Inscription of Vicious Strength

Can buy the same enchants for 40 (Head) and 80 (Shoulder) Tol Barad Commendation.(##RESPBREAK##)2060##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

Patch 4.1 PTR:

The rate at which Honor Points are earned has been doubled.

Comment by caronnea

is it true the price of all items will be reduced by 50 %?
or am i reading this wrong?

would be nice to see the rate earned doubled and the price reduced,
so more good geared PvPers, its all about skill now finaly!

Comment by corilan75

As of 4.1 you can purchase 250 Justice Points for 375 Honor Points from Edlan Halsing (Alliance) and Rogoc (Horde). You can purchase 250 Honor Points for 375 Justice Points from Talric Forthright (Alliance) and Togar (Horde).

Comment by StInGa9099

can u get any good lvl 85 death knight weapons with honor points?

Comment by Ashenwind

No Weapons are bought with conquest not honor, though it is in some ways easier to cap conquest 3 weeks in a row and buy a pvp weapon then it is to build up a comparable amount of honor. my suggestion find a 2v2 partner and keep at it till you win 8 matches a week.

Comment by azzeratwell

think the best way to spend your Honor points is to trade them into justice points then go to dalaran and talk to Arcanist Ivrenne and buy as many level 80 equivilant gems Cardinal Ruby, these sell on my server for upto 150g+ each which i think is a nice bit of gold you could otherwise be missing out on.

Comment by LaCrysta

Thanks, I was wondering where you go to convert those.

Comment by Waauugh

Is there no way to move honor from one toon to another? I recall in Wrath you could buy a commendation in Wintergrasp that was BoA, but you would lose some honor in the trade, or something. Anyone see one of these in Cata?

My main is full on Vicious gear, and the exchange rate on trade goods is terrible, so I'd rather just lose some to gear up an alt.

Edit: This thing: Wintergrasp Commendation
Is there a Cataclysm equivalent?

Comment by durok

As of patch 4.2, you can now change 375 honor points to 250 justice points.

Comment by Stjimmy

For the love of god read up.. People have already been saying this, and it happened before 4.2 as well.

Comment by dupeto

Since you can transfer 375 JP to 250 HP i did some math :
250 : 375 = 0,666666666666666666666666666666667
So for 1 JP you get 0,666666666666666666666666666666667 HP
For 4000 JP (the hard cap) you get 2666,6666666666666666666666666667 HP

This may be useful when new patch comes out , cuz i like to have 4000 JP + 4000 HP for some extra items.

HP - Honor Points
JP - Justice Points

Comment by Magito

so was wondering, maybe i did not read all, but if max is 4k points and bg items cost 7200 how do you buy them?

Comment by zeromaster87

i think they need to add honor quests into vanilla and bc also vote up if you agree

Comment by theoz

As of season 12 the new Honor Quartermaster is Lok'nor Bloodfist. located at 35,83 in Kun-Lai Summit. (on the wall)

Comment by williamtwo

I've been getting these as a level 70 WOTLK dungeon boss drop is that supposed to happen?

Comment by SirInny

A small tip for everyone gathering honor. Try to do as much Tol Barad as possible. For every win you gain about 550 honor. Even more if you do the weekly win quest.

Comment by tikki100

As of 5.1 you're still able to exchange honor points to justice points and vica versa. :P

Comment by Nazurith

Idk why, but I'm getting 6-7 honor points from killing bosses in WotLK heroics.

Comment by foxmx3

this is a tip for gaining honor there are 3 types of players

pve'ers

pvp'ers

pvp/pve'ers (both)

and if you like pvp then join a guild thats pvp

but they might say they are but question them

do you have a rbg team?
do you do honor runs?
etc

to get honor points fast is to get a pvp guild

and get there vent info
gather 5+ people and all get in vent (7 rec)
and you will be very organized by owning the bg because you guys are talking, and planing it out

the other team is non-organized and is weak arathi basin is a good example
every one just talks about random places to go
so they are very unorganized
so you will win proabally 7/10 good luck =)

Comment by Thepoison

If you are capable of defeating the PvP Rares in Krasarang Wilds, I advise doing so. They will grant 250 Honor (More with the Guild Perk) per kill, in the form of a Honorable Commendation of Operation: Shieldwall, or Honorable Commendation of the Dominance Offensive for Horde. - The Rare-Spawns Alliance would go after are : Kar Warmaker, Muerta, and Ubunti the Shade. - Horde : Mavis Harms, Dalan Nightbreaker, and Disha Fearwarden. - This extra bit of honor will give you a nice little boost, and can be obtained every half hour to an hour, depending on the spawn-time of the Rares. Goodluck!

Comment by Bogdanov89

You can exchange Honor points for Justice points (and JP for Honor) in Stormwind in the Old Town section.

Comment by tygrey

to get easy honor points farm the rares in krasarang and get your friends to invite you to there server, can get around 4000 honor in like 10-15 minutes.

Comment by Hildur

The information on this page is currently wrong, the conversion rate changed from 375 jp for 250 hp to 500 jp for 250 hp in 5.4 making it less easy to get honor by farming justice. You can also do this in pandaria by going to Commander Lo Ping

Comment by Ultimician

Also drops from YOU!

Comment by tarkin12

If Krasarang rares aren't your thing (they never seemed to be there for me), best way to get honor:

-Tol Barad every time it's up (get the weekly quest too)
-Grizzly Hills dailies in between queues
-Isle of Thunder Phase 2 PvP dailies (after all the instances) in between queues
-Call to Arms queues

Comment by Loupland

Honor point farming... Hours and hours and hours...
And then? Conquest point farming... Hour after hour after hour...

Then? Kill people in arena battles and then? Well then youre done...

Comment by Benezia

I used to farm honor points by farming dungeons in 5.4.7 and converting the justice points to honor points. I was in PvE gear and I wanted to start getting into PvP by first getting a set of honor PvP gear so I wouldn't get as instakilled as I was in PvE gear as a healer.

This method only took a few hours to get around 2250 honor points.

However, with 6.0.2 and the removal of justice points, I now have no choice but to grind battlegrounds and repeatedly get my ass handed to me by people in better gear... and the honor point payout is significantly less.

:C

Comment by Booooooo

I'm not a fan of PvP, so I used to resort to Justice Point conversion, Isle of Thunder daily quests and killing the Elite NPCs in Krasarang Wilds to get my Honor Points.

Today I decided I wanted an old Cata PvP weapon for transmog, meaning I need to gather about 1000 Honor.

With the removal of Justice Points, conversion was no longer an option.

Isle of Thunder PvP daily quests no longer grant Honor points, instead paying out Lesser Charms (less than the PvE dailies) and Kirin Tor Offensive rep (also less than PvE dailies).

The 3 Elites mobs in Krasarang also no longer give Honor. They now give Lesser Charms too.

This is disappointing.

Comment by Rhaeghast

At 100 you can buy some pvp equipment on Ashram from Marshal Karsh Stormforge (Alliance) or Warlord Noktyn (Horde)

Comment by Leilameda

Horde:
Blood Guard Axelash is now standing at 43.0, 54,8 and selling gear for Conquest Points.

Alliance:

Alliance players can find Bregg Coppercast (Honor) and Ingrid Blackingot (Conquest) standing in front of the Siege Tank near the exit to Ashran, across from the training dummies.

Comment by mrblue96

I'm having trouble finding what to do with my Honor Points while leveling from 90-100. I cannot buy any gear in Warspear since I have to be lvl 100. I'm wearing Pandaria gear...is there no gear to purchase until I get to 100? Seems like a waste!

Comment by varenne

Honor Points vendor location in Warspear (Horde) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyEWHc2VP6E

Comment by Badunkadunk

Honor Points are pretty much worthless in WoD. Once you have obtained all your Honor level gear (620) or better, and any transmog old world content pvp gear, you pretty much have nothing to use it for. Since Justice Points no longer exist, and BoAs aren't purchasable via Justice Points, and you cant trade Honor for Justice because there's no Justice Points... I don't know why Honor Points even exists. You get honor or 626 ilvl gear from BG wins, World PvP wins, Gladiator Sanctum in your Garrison, really why do we want Honor Points just to buy nothing? Blizzard, you sure screwed this up royally. Or am I missing something?

Comment by Angelhearth

As to the worthlessness of Honor Points in WoD.

Do NOT forget that you can buy weekly Seal of Tempered Fate with these! If you have a Dwarven Bunker where you get 1 seal for free each week, you still need 2 more. You can buy those 2 with, among other things, Honor Points.

Comment by remotettl

and now, honor points arr just useless after you geared up full pvp set (620)... tokens for raids... and nothing else You can do with them, just buy gear and sell it, so ya get more honor towards achies :(

Comment by ForcedPlay

I maxed out my honor points in a mere day...
and you're telling me I have to queue for a pvp battle in order to buy the pvp gear
what the hell even blizzard
that or I'm just stupid.

Comment by Little

In 6.1 you can use excess Honor Points to buy level 1 heirloom upgrades from the PvP heirloom vendor in Stormwind/Orgrimmar (and the heirlooms, if you don't have them yet). You can also trade 200 Honor Points for 1 Primal Spirit at the honor vendor.

Edit: Alliance vendor that sells Primal Spirit is Bregg Coppercast in Stormshield (might also be sold by the vendor in Ashran). ~~I assume the Horde vendor is Lieutenant Brokefist, but don't have a Horde character to check.~~

Edit 2: Lieutenant Axelash sells Primal Spirit for the Horde. Consistency \o/ Thanks, scartaris :)

Comment by alpanhell

Weirdly enough in 6.1 on Horde side you buy Primal Spirit from the CP vendor (Lieutenant Axelash). gj Blizzard.

Comment by royan

You can also buy some leather, ore, cloth and enchanting shards from Edian Halsing in Stormwind beside heirloom vendor Liliana Emberfrost.

Comment by Bustyjan

Best use of honor points i find yet:

go to Cladd Dawnstrider(or the alliance pendant) and buy Wild Gladiator's Reprieve or something else for 1250 points, and then disenchant it and sell or use the crystal

Comment by NessieMo

The day after I used 4 No Champion's Honor in order to obtain 4,000 Honor Points to purchase mounts, I was offered, for the first time, the Garrison Mission Domination of Spires of Arak which rewards 200 No Honor Points.

As this alt / garrison / followers / &c.have all been max level for a very long time it's highly unlikely that this is a coincidence.

In Stormshield, Alliance players can find Bregg Coppercast (Honor) and Ingrid Blackingot (Conquest) standing in front of the Siege Tank near the exit to Ashran, across from the training dummies.

In Warspear, Horde players can find Stone Guard Brokefist (Honor) and Blood Guard Axelash (Conquest) on the hill next to the exit to Ashran, just down the path from the inn.
