Fractured in Alterac Valley Rewards Track Refresh + Alliance vs Horde Honor Event Details

New expansion means a new rewards track! While overall the rewards track looks familiar, the biggest change compared to previous expansions is the addition of Mercenaries + Battlegrounds stuff. However, if you don’t play those modes, you don’t have to worry – all of them were added ON TOP of previous rewards, so you won’t lose anything.

Besides Drek'Thar and Vanndar Stormpike which all the players got for free (for now you can only choose one side, but you will get the other Legendary too), Level 1 on rewards track will give Lokholar the Ice Lord – meaning that we have three free Legendaries this expansion. And this time around, we also have a second Level 1 reward – Vanessa VanCleef Epic Mercenary. Everyone will get Merc for free, while her alternate portraits will be available through the premium Tavern Pass track. Similarly, a bunch of new Battlegrounds skins will be obtainable through Tavern Pass, making it an even better value proposition if you’re into cosmetics and play multiple game modes.

In the same blog post, we’ve also got new details about the Alliance vs Horde Honor Event that drops on December 7. There will be 13 “Quests” in total, giving players Golden versions of certain Rare Alterac Valley cards. The final Quest will award the opposing faction’s leader – so if you picked Drek’Thar you will get Vanndar and vice-versa. We have a full event guide here, and we’ll update it with the new details soon.

Check out all the details about new rewards track below:

It’s almost time for another Rewards Track refresh! When the Rewards Track refreshes with the Fractured in Alterac Valley launch, all players will automatically be granted any unclaimed rewards on both the free track and the Tavern Pass track (if purchased), and a completely new Rewards Track of unlockable loot will take its place.

Diamond Cards and the Battle for Alterac Valley

Korrak the Bloodrager and Belinda Stonehearth will be the set’s regularly-scheduled Diamond Cards. The unlock criteria for those cards are as follows:

  • Korrak the Bloodrager—Instantly obtained by purchasing the Tavern Pass and claiming the card on the Rewards track.
  • Belinda Stonehearth—Obtained by owning 25 Fractured in Alterac Valley Legendary cards.

NEUTRAL_AV_143_enUS_KorraktheBloodrager-70258_DIAMOND.pngMAGE_AV_284_enUS_BalindaStonehearth-70015_DIAMOND.png

There will also be a third, special Diamond card, based on the outcome of the Battle for Alterac Valley event! After the expansion launches, from December 7 to January 11, all players will compete for Honor in order to get free rewards and claim ultimate victory for their faction! You gain Honor by playing and winning games during the event:

  • 10 Honor for every game played
  • 10 more Honor for every game won (20 total)
  • 20 more Honor for every game won versus an opponent of the enemy faction (40 total)

Honor can be gained the Traditional, Arena, and Duels Modes. As you gain Honor, you climb the ranks within your faction and progress a Legendary Quest chain that rewards you with cards from the expansion. All players who complete the Quest chain earn the same rewards, though the order of the rewards depends on which faction you support.

Alliance Quest Alliance Reward Horde Quest Horde Reward Quest – Honor Quota Achievement – Honor Quota
Corporal x1 Golden Stormpike Aid Station Grunt x1 Golden Frostwolf Kennels 40 40
Sergeant x1 Golden Stormpike Aid Station Sergeant x1 Golden Frostwolf Kennels 80 120
Master Sergeant x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bunker Senior Sergeant x1 Golden Iceblood Tower 180 300
Sergeant Major x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bunker First Sergeant x1 Golden Iceblood Tower 260 560
Knight x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bridge Stone Guard x1 Golden Iceblood Garrison 400 960
Knight-Lieutenant x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bridge Blood Guard x1 Golden Iceblood Garrison 500 1460
Knight-Captain x1 Golden Iceblood Garrison Legionnaire x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bridge 540 2000
Knight-Champion x1 Golden Iceblood Garrison Centurion x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bridge 620 2620
Lieutenant Commander x1 Golden Iceblood Tower Champion x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bunker 660 3280
Commander x1 Golden Iceblood Tower Lieutenant General x1 Golden Dun Baldar Bunker 780 4060
Marshal x1 Golden Frostwolf Kennels General x1 Golden Stormpike Aid Station 840 4900
Field Marshal x1 Golden Frostwolf Kennels Warlord x1 Golden Stormpike Aid Station 900 5800
Grand Marshal x1 Golden Drek’Thar High Warlord x1 Golden Vanndar Stormpike 1400 7200

At the end of the event, all Honor will be tallied and the winning faction’s accomplishment will be forever enshrined in Hearthstone, because every player will receive a Diamond copy of the winning faction’s leader card (Drek’Thar or Vanndar) as the third Diamond card for the set!

Fractured in Alterac Valley Tavern Pass

The United in Stormwind Tavern Pass will expire with the launch of Fractured in Alterac Valley and a new Tavern Pass will be made available for purchase—offering XP boosts and more new cosmetics than ever before!

HS_22p0_FIAV_Tavern_Pass_Bundle_760x380_SDW_EKedit.jpg

Purchase the Tavern Pass at any point during the expansion will immediately grant the Diamond Korrak the uncraftable Bloodrager Legendary minion, a 10% XP Boost that lasts the rest of the duration of the expansion, and all items up to your current level on the paid track. As you progress with the Tavern Pass during the Fractured in Alterac Valley expansion, you’ll earn additional XP Boosts, up to twelve total Skins for Dawngrasp, Cariel, and Bru’kan (4 for each), eight Battlegrounds Skins, the Alterac Bob Battlegrounds Alternate Bartender, the Celeste Card Back and Alternate Mage Hero, three Vanessa VanCleef Mercenary Portraits, a cosmetic coin, and an uncraftable Golden Lokholar, the Ice Lord minion!

As a reminder, Battlegrounds Perks are now available as a standalone purchase, separate from the Tavern Pass.

New Cosmetic Coins

Two new Cosmetic Coins are being added with Fractured in Alterac Valley, the Faction Pride coin and the Alterac General coin. The Faction Pride coin is obtained by completing the first 90 levels of the Rewards Track with the Tavern Pass. The Alterac General coin is obtained by collecting 135 unique Fractured in Alterac Valley cards.

Keep in mind that Fractured in Alterac Valley will have a 35-card Mini-Set that will make it easier to reach both the 25 total Fractured in Alterac Valley Legendary cards for the Belinda Stonehearth Diamond Legendary minion and the 135 total Fractured in Alterac Valley cards for the Alterac General coin. We’ll have more information to share about the Fractured in Alterac Valley Mini-Set in the coming months.

    If we’re to follow the 2 previous reward tracks, I can safely assume that Korrak the Bloodrager will have a week of full value dusting. So go ahead and craft the card early, finish the achievements that comes with it, and then dust the card back, so you won’t lose any dust, but also gain a small bonus XP.

    I can suggest opening the pack early to try and get Legendary Korrak, so you can disenchant it at full value and trade it for another legendary, but opening the packs early can be a nuisance because you can open cards that you can also get for free later. And that’s a 3/4 dust lost.

    I am fine with collecting honor points to get the other legendary, but I am not sure if we can still get the normal copy from packs? I don’t want to get a normal copy from packs and later get the same golden from event. What I want to ask is that should I wait and not open my packs till I get the second golden legendary if there are chances of opening a normal copy in packs?

      The same goes for bonus golden epic on level 65 & 75. If we’re getting them for free, opening them early in packs really sucks.

      The only possible option were to rush everything in the first week to get to those level, and then and only then, you can open the packs safely.

      I’m sure that you can craft them, but I don’t know about packs. I would assume that you can get them in packs too, honestly. (Non-Golden versions, that is.)

        Yes, I am certain that will be the case. I have 2 normal and 2 golden elwynn boar for example.
