While fighting in battlegrounds, players can receive honor points that can be used as currency to purchase rewards. Read more here.
Upon completion of a battleground, the winning side will also be awarded three tokens for the battleground you're in while the losing side will be awarded only one. These battleground tokens can be used as currency to purchase weapons, armor, and other equipment:
• General Rewards - Alliance players can find their rewards in the Champion's Hall located in Old Town, Stormwind. Horde players should visit the Hall of Legends in the Valley of Strength in the city of Orgrimmar.
• Players can turn in one of each battleground mark for an honor reward. The questgivers for this turn-in are the Horde Warbringer and the Alliance Brigadier General and can be found near the battlemasters in the capital cities.
• Alterac Valley - Rewards can be purchased from an NPC outside the instance in the Hillsbrad Foothills. There's also a NPC in town inside Alterac Valley who sells some rewards.
• Arathi Basin - Rewards can be purchased at Refuge Pointe in the Arathi Highlands for Alliance, or in Hammerfall for the Horde.
• Warsong Gulch - Rewards can be purchased outside the entrance to Warsong Gulch in Ashenvale (Alliance) or the Barrens (Horde).
• Eye of the Storm - Rewards can be found in the Champion's Hall in Stormwind (Alliance) or the Hall of Legends in Orgrimmar (Horde).
AFK/Deserter Buff
When a player leaves a battleground before it concludes, they will be unable to re-enter any battleground queue for 15 minutes, and they will receive the deserter debuff. This is to prevent players from entering and leaving battlegrounds until they get the desired team matchup.
AFK Reporting
A new feature for reporting players as being AFK in battlegrounds was recently added. Right-click on their portrait, minimap dot, world map dot, or raid tab, and then select "report as AFK". When enough reports are registered, a 60 second debuff will begin to count down. It also prevents you from getting battleground marks, and completing your daily quest if it is for that battleground. To remove this, the player must enter PvP combat.
