WoW 20th Anniversary Edition Phase 3 Honor Cap, Arathi Basin, and More Now Live


The PvP Honor Rank 11 cap has been removed, giving access to titles and awards for ranking up to 14, the gates of Arathi Basin are open for a resource race, and more opportunities for Honor and Rewards can be had during Battleground holiday weekends.

Get Ready for Arathi Basin
Players:
15 vs.15
Level Range:20+
Capture Points: Farm, Mine, Blacksmith, Lumber Mill, and Stables
Resources Needed to Win: 2000

Players must hone their team coordination to a keen edge to capture and hold five different bases throughout the map and accrue resources. Alliance players will start close to the Stables at Trollbane Hall, while Horde players will begin near the farm in the Defiler’s Den. The first team to collect 2000 resources wins.

Battleground Holidays: More Honor and Rewards

Every weekend from Thursday night at midnight until early Tuesday morning, performing objectives in the featured battleground gains increased Honor and Faction rewards. Battleground holidays are on a weekly rotation cycle, starting the weekend of April 4 with Arathi Basin. Seek out the emissary in major cities to get the objective for the featured battleground to kick off your battle weekend.
