How Do Conquest Points Work?
Conquest points are a crucial part of World of Warcraft’s PvP (Player versus Player) system, allowing players to earn rewards and rewards for their efforts in Ranked Arenas and Rated Battlegrounds. In this article, we’ll explore how conquest points work, including how to earn them, how they’re calculated, and what rewards you can expect.
Earning Conquest Points
Conquest points can be earned by participating in Rated Arenas and Rated Battlegrounds. The amount of points earned varies depending on the size of the arena and the type of battleground.
- Arenas: In 3v3 and 5v5 arenas, players earn 180 conquest points for a win, 100 conquest points for a loss, and 50 conquest points for a draw.
- Battlegrounds: In 15v15 and 20v20 battlegrounds, players earn 400 conquest points for a win, 100 conquest points for a loss, and 50 conquest points for a draw.
Conquest Point Cap
The conquest point cap is 550 per week. This means that, no matter how many conquest points you earn, your total will not exceed 550. Any excess points are wasted. The cap increases every week by an additional 550, allowing players to earn any missed conquest points at any point.
Conquest Point Rewards
Conquest points can be used to purchase rewards, including mounts, pets, and gear. The rewards available vary depending on your server and the season. Here are some examples of rewards you can earn:
| Reward | Conquest Points Required |
|---|---|
| Seasonal Mount | 2250 |
| Seasonal Pet | 1500 |
| Gear ( shoulders, legs, etc.) | 1000 |
Conquest Point Resets
At the start of each new season, all conquest points are reset. This means that you’ll start from scratch, with no points carried over from the previous season.
Hidden Rewards
Some conquest maps have hidden rewards that can be earned by completing certain objectives. These rewards can be earned multiple times, but the objectives must be completed again to earn the reward.
- Can the hidden rewards on all of the conquest maps be earned more than once? Excluding the mystery map, where you can only earn them once, yes, you can still get the final reward multiple times.
Do Conquest Points Carry Over Season 4?
No, conquest points do not carry over from one PvP season to the next. Any remaining points at the end of a season will be converted into the equivalent value of honor points.
Did Blizzard Remove the Conquest Cap?
Yes, Blizzard Entertainment removed the conquest point cap in a recent update. This means that players can earn as many conquest points as they can, without being limited by a cap.
In Conclusion
Conquest points are an important part of World of Warcraft’s PvP system, allowing players to earn rewards and show off their skills. With this guide, you should have a better understanding of how conquest points work, including how to earn them, how they’re calculated, and what rewards you can expect.
