Making gold from honor points in WoW

Difficulty: Beginner

Approximate Earnings: Several hundred gold per hour.

Time Spent: Dependent on time spent PvPing and amount of excess honor points.

How To: Honor Point accumulation caps at 4000. Once you have purchased all the gear and weapons you want for your character, spend your extra points on an item called the “Brutal Gladiator’s Shiv”. This item is only 105 honor and sells at the vendors for nearly 16 gold. If you are sitting on a full cache of honor points this will equate to about 600 additional gold. It is fairly easy to accumulate honor points quickly by doing the daily battleground and participating in honor weekends, where certain battlegrounds will award additional honor for your attendance. There is a 2 hour waiting period before you can successfully sell any PvP item to a vendor for its gold value. The absence of the blue “refund” text at the bottom of the item tooltip will help you know when it is fine to vendor.
