World of Warcraft Legion’s New Honor, Prestige Systems for PvP Revealed

Earn new cosmetics and PvP abilities.

World of Warcraft’s Legion expansion will be pretty massive. On top of introducing specific Artifacts for characters which morph and become stronger as you level up, the expansion will bring a new class with the Demon Hunter, the Broken Isles to explore and much, much more.

One such interesting addition, however, is being made to the PvP. Blizzard is introducing a new Honor system which allows you to level up and unlock PvP-specific powers. It’s also possible to earn titles and in an interesting twist, you can prestige your character for other cosmetics and rewards. Considering how PvP didn’t quite gel with players in Warlords of Draenor, these new additions are looking like a step in the right direction.

World of Warcraft: Legion is out on August 30th for PC, though players who pre-ordered can receive early access to the new Demon Hunter class early and also take part in a Legion-specific event that’s currently on-going. What are your thoughts on the new additions? Let us know below.
