Honor rank calculator
Forever replaces Classic's weekly standings with a personal Rank Points bar: 24,750 points to Rank 14, and a weekly cap on the highest rank you can hold (Rank 3 in launch week, Rank 14 from week ten). Enter your pace and the calculator gives the earliest date for your target, and whether the cap or your hours is the limit. Numbers are the beta datamine; the PvP guide tracks confirmation.

Weekly cap schedule (week since launch → highest rank): W1 → R3, W2 → R5, W3 → R6, W4 → R7, W5 → R8, W6 → R9, W7 → R11, W8 → R12, W9 → R13, W10 → R14. Honor itself is a separate currency (cap 25,000 in beta) that buys the gear each rank unlocks.
Where Rank Points come from
- Battleground wins and losses (Warsong Gulch 10v10, Arathi Basin 15v15, Alterac Valley 40v40, the new Darkspear Islands 15v15), PvP daily and weekly quests, and world PvP kills. Per-match values were not in the beta data; measure your own first week and put the hourly figure above.
- The cap limits the rank, not the points: hitting the week's ceiling early means banked progress and a freer schedule, not lost points (beta behaviour; confirm live).
- Rank 3, 7, 10, 13 and 14 each grant an account-wide Legacy point.
- Gear: Rare PvP pieces need no rank at 55; the Elite upgrades from Rank 8 and the Rank 11 Black War mounts are the usual goals.
