## Honor and ranks

Honor Points (currency 1792) purchase PvP items and have a stored maximum of 15,000. Rank Points (3468) come from battlegrounds and tasks in Gadgetzan, and raise PvP rank. The two currencies have different purposes.

The PvP rank interface displays season progress, a weekly increasing cap and upcoming rewards. The cap curve runs through ranks 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13 and 14. Its raw input/output pairs are included in the JSON; no calendar dates are assigned to these points.

| 1 | Private | Scout | Faction Tabard |
| 2 | Corporal | Grunt | Insignia Trinket |
| 3 | Sergeant | Sergeant | Faction Cloak |

## Queues and additional entries

Random Battleground links to Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin and Darkspear Islands. A separate Random Epic Battleground entry has no linked map rows. Battle for Blackrock is already present in the SoD reference.

Battle for Gilneas, Hyjal Crater and Mak’gora Arena have additional queue records. Both arena entries link to map 2995. They are shown as additional client entries, not announced modes. No rated-arena feature is inferred from the RatedPlayers field.

## Armor and purchases

26 new PvP set IDs plus 34 changed Classic PvP sets cover all nine classes. The viewer provides class/faction filters and every set bonus. There are also 23 Honor-based extended-cost rows; the JSON retains these without assigning them to vendor items.
