The PvP Vendors System continued in Dragonflight, offering players many opportunities to gain powerful equipment, upgrade it, and even buy recipes for the items available in the previous PvP seasons for cosmetic purposes.
In this guide, we will cover everything there is to know about the Dragonflight PvP, ranging from PvP Currencies, PvP Vendors and Gear Costs, Item Upgrade Costs, Cosmetic Recipes, the War Mode and its respective Bloody Token system, and even Great Vault Rewards
PvP Currencies
Five different types of PvP currency can be acquired in Dragonflight:
- Honor – This currency can be earned from any type of PvP activity, up to a maximum of 15000 Cap.
- Conquest – This currency can be earned from Rated PvP activities such as Rated Battlegrounds, Rated Arenas, Weekly PvP Quests, and Daily Quests. It can also be earned from War Supply Chests.
- Bloody Tokens – This currency can be earned from any War Mode activity. It can also be earned from War Supply Chests.
- Mark of Honor – This currency can be earned from Weekly PvP Quests and multiple crates such as Victorious Contender’s Strongbox and Malicia’s Hoard or bought from vendors in exchange for Honor.
- Trophy of Strife – This currency can be earned by completing Weekly War Mode PvP Quest.
PvP Vendors
The PvP Vendors for Dragonflight are located in Valdrakken, inside the Gladiator’s Refuge at the 44.6, 36.9 coordinates. There are two main PvP vendors: Seltherex and Calderax which serve as the Honor and Conquest quartermasters. Additionally, there are multiple other vendors such as Glamora which serves as the Elite Conquest Quartermaster, Fieldmaster Emberath which serves as the normal War Mode Bloody Tokens Quartermaster, and Malicia which sells the epic versions of the War Mode items. Additionally, just like in Shadowlands, there is an NPC named Corxian who offers the possibility of upgrading items.
Furthermore, multiple vendors sell recipes and schematics for Crafted PvP Gear from both the previous seasons and the current season! Those plans are mainly for cosmetic purposes but the items from the current season serve as slightly weaker versions of the Honor Gear which are strong enough to be considered viable.
