Currency Conversions and Rewards Updates Coming with Patch 4.4.1 on October 29

Greetings! As we prepare for the release of the Rage of the Firelands patch 4.4.1 on October 29, we want to update you on some of the currency conversions that will take place during maintenance.

Conquest and Honor Points

All existing Conquest Points in the Currency tab will be converted to Honor Points. Rather than converting Honor Points that exceed the 4000 point cap to silver, Honor Points will be allowed to exceed the cap, allowing players to retain and use their Honor Points. However, players with Honor Points exceeding the cap will need to spend their Honor Points until the amount they have falls below the cap, in order to start receiving Honor Points again from activities.

Similar to the first season of Cataclysm Classic, the initial cap for Conquest Points will be 4000 and will increase by 4000 every week throughout the season.

Valor and Justice Points

All existing Valor Points in the Currency tab will be converted to Justice Points. All Justice Points exceeding the 4000 point cap will be converted into gold at a rate of 47 silver per point and will be mailed to the character.

Similar to the first season of Cataclysm Classic, the initial cap for Valor Points will be 1600 and will increase by 1600 every week throughout the season.

Across all versions of the Firelands raid, each boss defeated (except Ragnaros) will reward 100 Valor Points. Defeating Ragnaros will reward 200 Valor Points.

In Baradin Hold, defeating Argoloth rewards 35 Valor Points in 10-player mode and 45 Valor Points in 25-player mode. When Occu’thar releases after the Firelands raid, defeating this boss will reward 100 Valor Points in either mode.

The Random Rise of the Zandalari Heroic reward has been updated to 240 Valor Points for the first run of the day. Subsequent runs will reward 60 Valor Points each.

The Random Cataclysm Heroic reward remains 240 Valor Points for the first run of the day. However, subsequent runs of Random Cataclysm Heroics will reward 120 Valor Points.

Every successful Elemental Rune Dungeon: Protocol Inferno run will reward 240 Valor Points.

The number of Valor Points awarded for defeating a boss on Heroic difficulty in The Bastion of Twilight, Blackwing Descent, and Throne of the Four winds is 35 in 10-player mode, and 45 in 25-player mode.


We’re looking forward to seeing you take on the Firelands!

When does season 10 start?

Do these references to first run of the day take into account the current mechanic, which is 7/week rather than a literal one per day?

That is, do you get 240 Valor for the first seven Random Cataclysm Heroic dungeons per week, or is it changing to actually be once per day now in the new patch?

We must be getting some really good new Valor gear for cheaper… Unless we have to Grind harder for the same priced items. at the end of week one we will have some nice new Gloves!! Lol…

No more ZA spam for Alts, do H random Cata’s. got it.

@Kaivax was that too long to write a one sentence message about when does the season 10 starts ? Do you really don’t care this much about your player base ?

I mean the giveaway of how much the care is the timing of the blue post. Less than a day before the patch is out. Absolutely amazing communication /s… It’s not Kaivax’s fault either, he’s just the messenger. It’s wild how they are managing this game at this point.

Right? I didn’t even see this until after patching started so I didn’t get a chance to make sure my alts were below cap.

Well, and how long servers been on maintenance?

They should give an extra day to the subscription, today is a lost day for many

Realms just shut down for a already 3 or 3,5 hours.

The 240 Valor Points reward for these appears to be limited to once weekly, not daily as the post states.

edit: this has been fixed
