This is no "consolation loot" as both the winning team and the loosing team will receive it if the corresponding criterium is achieved.Īnd now, an example : Horde wins Warsong Gulsh with a score of 3/2 Of course, the higher the quality of the box, the greater the chance to get better rewards The box can contain Honor points, Conquest points as well as gear. Tranche 3 (battleground won): Gold Strongbox (Horde) or Gold Strongbox (Alliance).Tranche 2 (2/3 of the objectives attained): Silver Strongbox (Horde) or Silver Strongbox (Alliance).Tranche 1 (1/3 of the objectives attained): Bronze Strongbox (Horde) or Bronze Strongbox (Alliance).Arathi bassin and other resources winning battlegrounds (revamped to a 1500 points win): collect 500 / 1000 / 1500 resourcesįor each tranche achieved by one of the team, members will be awarded a box at the end of the battleground as follows:.Warsong gulsh and other flag winning battlegrounds: capture 1 / 2 / 3 flags The objectives of the various battlegrounds have been split into 3 tranches.Info is summed up from original Blue Post at. Source: The blue posts made by Blizzard's employees.Ĭomment by FrozgulAs stated by Alimente1, this item is related to PVP, more precisely battlegrounds You get these different tiers based on how good your team did, like if you did ok(Got a third of the way done), you will get a bronze strongbox, if you got 2/3's of the objective complete, you will get bronze and silver, if you won, from what they say, you will get all three strongboxes. This will be able to give you Honor Points, Conquest Points, or even some neat gear(They say you have a high chance to get some of the 1st out of 3 tiers or PvP gear)! :D This is the highest tier out of three and it will have a better chance to get some of the better rewards, or possibly some rewards that can't be gotten from other strongboxes. The goal of this system is to ensure that, even if you think your team is likely to lose, it's still worth your while to put up as much of a fight as possible and stay through to the end of the match.Comment by MostwantedRBXThis is a box that will be obtained through PvP situations like the "Call to Arms" or the "Random Battleground" feature, it is also going to be obtainable from the new "Skirmish" PvP option. In addition, Strongboxes are awarded to every player on the team that earned them, as long as they are still in the game when the match ends.

Of course, winning any Battleground will award a Gold Strongbox. Destroying the yellow gate will award a Silver Strongbox. Destroying either the blue or green gate will award a Bronze Strongbox. In Strand of the Ancients, Strongboxes are awarded to the losing team based on how far they were able to progress before their turn ended. If the winning team had 100 or fewer reinforcements left, the losing team will be awarded a Silver Strongbox. If the winning team had 300 or fewer reinforcements left, the losing team will be awarded a Bronze Strongbox. In Alterac Valley and Isle of Conquest, Strongboxes are awarded to the losing team based on how many reinforcements the winning team had remaining when the match ended. One capture will award a Bronze Strongbox, and 2 captures will award a Silver Strongbox. In capture the flag Battlegrounds (Warsong Gulch and Twin Peaks), Strongboxes are awarded based on how many times the losing team was able to capture the flag. Earning 500 points will award a Bronze Strongbox, and earning 1000 points will award a Silver Strongbox. In point-based Battlegrounds (Arathi Basin, Eye of the Storm, Battle for Gilneas, Temple of Kotmogu, Silvershard Mines, and Deepwind Gorge), Strongboxes are awarded based on how many points the losing team was able to earn before the match ended. We've been seeing some confusion about how Strongboxes are awarded in Random BG's, so I wanted to take a moment to clarify.
