Dungeon kill XP fixed to each player's level, base kill XP up 20%; PvP ranks run to 14 with a weekly cap

Dungeon kill XP had been paying at the group's highest level. The PvP post set Honor and Rank Points, 14 ranks and Emboldened Seal upgrades.

Blizzard said dungeon kill experience was paying out at the group's highest level and would be based on each player's own level, with base kill XP raised about 20%. Party kill XP went back to Classic rules. Darkspear Islands was detailed as a 15v15 with four capture points, a flag and two reputation tracks.

The PvP progression post confirmed Honor Points for gear and Rank Points for the 14-rank track with a weekly cap, and epics built by combining the blue piece with a rank-locked Emboldened Seal.
