WoW Forever Honor Cap and PvP Gear Costs
October 1 official Honor changes: 25,000 cap, approximately 50% higher costs for most PvP gear and upgrade tokens, and what prices still need checking.
Quick answer
Blizzard raised the WoW Forever Beta Honor cap from 15,000 to 25,000 and increased the Honor costs of most PvP gear and upgrade tokens by approximately 50% in the October 1 update. The percentage is an overview, not an exact price for every item; check the current in-game vendor before spending.
OfficialView evidence
Try this first
- Check your Honor balance against the published 25,000 cap.
- Read the current vendor price for the exact gear or upgrade token you want.
- Use the October 1 notes as the change summary, not as a complete item-price table.
What is still unknown
- Exact prices for every item and final launch costs are not established by the reviewed notes.
What Blizzard changed
The official Development Notes pair a higher Honor ceiling with higher costs for most gear and upgrade tokens. This is an announced Beta economy adjustment, not a change to every item by precisely the same percentage.
What the 25,000 cap means
The published cap is 25,000, up from 15,000. Compare your current total to that ceiling before earning more Honor; this guide does not infer a weekly earning limit or a ranking system from the currency cap.
How to plan purchases
Open the updated PvP vendor, compare the exact cost of the gear or token you want, and prioritize against your current balance. Do not use an older Beta spreadsheet as a final price list.
What remains unknown
The reviewed notes do not provide a complete item-by-item cost table or confirm final launch pricing. Community efficiency calculations depend on later balance changes and should not be treated as official.
Claim evidence
Every PvP item now costs exactly 50% more and final launch pricing is locked.Unverified
