Arenas

There are 3 arenas currently available:

• The Ring of Trials (Nagrand)
• The Circle of Blood (Blade’s Edge Mountains)
• The Ruins of Lordaeron (Tirisfal Glades)

Arena Teams

Arena Teams can be formed by purchasing an Arena Charter from an “Arena Organizer.” Arena Organizers are located outside the Circle of Blood and The Ring, but several can also be found in Goblin towns.

• “King” Dond (Ring of Trials)
• Steamwheedle Sam (Circle of Blood)
• Bip Nigstrom (Gadgetzan)

Arena Charter prices depend on the size of the team being created:

• 2v2 – 80 gold
• 3v3 – 120 gold
• 5v5 – 200 gold

If you are currently on an Arena team and wish to quit the team, use one of the following commands depending on your Arena team size:

• /teamquit 2v2
• /teamquit 3v3
• /teamquit 5v5

If you are the current Arena Captain and wish to disband your current Arena team, use one of the following commands depending on your Arena team size:

• /teamdisband 2v2
• /teamdisband 3v3
• /teamdisband 5v5

Important Note: There is a current issue where using the /teamquit and /teamdisband commands can potentially cause you to leave or disband the wrong team. In order to prevent this, please log out and log back into the game prior to using these commands to prevent the incorrect team from being left on accident.

Arena Queueing

Players can queue for a battleground by speaking to an Arena Battlemaster located in each major city as well as outside the physical location of each Arena (except for The Ruins of Lordaeron, which does not have a physical location on the World Map).

Arena Rating

Each Arena team begins with a default rating of 1500. This team rating will move up or down depending on your team’s performance. Your Team Rating will determine the amount of Arena points earned for that week. Additionally, all players have a Personal Rating that is independent of your Team Rating. Your Personal Rating also moves up or down depending on your team’s performance, but only for the matches your character participates in. Wins/losses incurred by your team during matches that you do not participate in do not affect your Personal Rating.

Arena Points

• All arena teams must participate in a minimum of 10 arena matches to be eligible for Arena Points.
• In order to be eligible for Arena points for a given week a player must have participated in at least 30% of the total matches completed by that team.
• Games played during the arena calculation period will not count for the current week. In order to ensure that all games played count towards your eligibility for points, please try and complete your games prior to Monday night.
• 5000 Arena Point maximum at any given time.
• If you are on multiple arena teams, you will only receive Arena points from the team that would generate the highest total of points for that Arena Week.
• Weekly arena points are calculated Monday Night/Tuesday morning prior to maintenance.
• Arena Points can be used to purchase items from Arena Vendors located outside the Arenas in Nagrand and Blade’s Edge Mountains as well as the Goblin towns of Gadgetzan and Area 52.

Arena Titles

Arena titles are awarded at the end of each Arena Season. Arena titles earned for performance in the previous season are not permanent and will only last until the next season begins. The top 0.5% teams on each Battlegroup receive the highest Arena title along with a special epic flying mount. Other Arena titles are handed out also depending on your teams ranking amongst the Battlegroup.

• Top % - .5%: Gladiator (and Arena epic flying sent in mail)
• Top .5% - 3%: Duelist
• Top 3% - 10%: Rival
• Top 10% - 35%: Challenger
