We’ve been seeing some confusion on the Valor system and wanted to clarify a little bit more. The total amount of Valor that can be earned starts at 5000 Valor, and by the following week an additional 750 Valor can be earned, totaling to 5750 maximum Valor.

For more clarity, here are a few examples:

• A character earns the maximum cap of 5000 Valor on the first week, regardless of what is spent (if any), they’ll be able to earn 750 Valor total the second week.
• A character earns 1000 Valor on the first week, regardless of what is spent (if any), they will be able to earn 4750 the second week.
• Any character that hits the maximum amount of Valor and spends it on upgrades will be able to earn another 750 the following week.

Due to the implementation being in the middle of Shadowlands Season 1, the large cap of 5000 at the start is to provide an immediate kickstart with the system as though it has been available for several weeks, any fut...

In next week’s Public Test Realm update, we’ll be making several adjustments to the Ashran, Isle of Conquest, and Wintergrasp epic battlegrounds.

Ashran

We’ve increased the player count again to make the battleground feel more epic. We also wanted to even out the Horde and Alliance sides of the map, especially at the start. The Tower Mages have had their difficulty lowered as they were a bit too impactful to the battleground. Additionally, we’ve reduced the cost to summon Fangraal and Kronus to help teams push the mid-lane more often.

• Maximum player count per faction is now 35 (was 30).
• Starting reinforcements are now 175 (was 150).
• To allow both factions to have easier access to Star Root Tubers and Song Flowers, both these tasty treats will now spawn alongside each other in the Dark Woods and Root Den.
• Artifact Fragment cost to summon Kronus and Fangraal reduced to 1500 (was 3000).
• Horde and A...
