Rated battlegrounds are the team side of rated PvP: a premade group of ten queues together into battleground maps and plays for a rating on its own ladder, separate from arena. Matches are won on objectives such as flags and bases rather than by wiping the other team, so the group needs players who call targets, hold nodes and carry flags at the same time. An RBG boost, or RBG carry, puts your character in such a group with experienced players and plays it up to the rating you choose.
Arena needs two or three players; a rated battleground needs a whole group that shows up at the same time and plays to one plan. Most players who want RBG rating have the skill for their own part and no group to queue with. That is the gap an RBG carry fills: the group, the calls and the plan come with the order.
Piloted covers the whole ladder: a booster logs in and plays your character in the team. With self-play you queue in the boosters' group on your own character, and with remote control a booster plays through a remote session on your computer. Self-play and remote control stop below the top brackets, and the price table shows where each of them ends.
The price is set by the brackets between your current rating and your goal. The lower brackets go quickly, while every step near the top costs more, because the teams there are stronger. Add up the rows of the table from where you are to where you want to be, add the base fee under it, and you have the order at normal speed.
If the character is not geared for the brackets you are buying, add PvP gear to the same order: Honor gear for the lower part of the ladder, Conquest gear or the best-in-slot kit for the higher one. Full sockets and the weekly PvP quests are add-ons too. With a Rank One team, every teammate in your group is a multi-season Rank 1 player. Express and Super Express put the order ahead in the queue.
Every rated game pays Honor and Conquest, and games at higher rating pay more. An RBG carry therefore gears the character faster the higher it climbs, and the weekly PvP quests add more of both. The currency earned on the way stays with you for the gear you choose yourself.
The top reward of rated battlegrounds is a title. A Horde character that ends a PvP season in the top 0.5% of the rated battleground ladder, with 50 games won that season, becomes Hero of the Horde; an Alliance character with the same finish becomes Hero of the Alliance. It is a place on the ladder rather than a rating number, so it is settled only when the season ends and depends on how everyone else finished. A rating order stops at your goal, so the titles are sold as orders of their own on the class you pick: the Hero of the Horde carry and the Hero of the Alliance carry.
Blitz is the rated battleground mode you queue for alone: eight players a side, shorter matches, its own rating ladder and its own title, Strategist. We sell Blitz rating piloted, bracket by bracket, the same way as RBG rating.
For players who want rated PvP in a smaller team, a 3v3 carry pays the same Honor and Conquest, leads to the arena ranks and the Gladiator title, and also comes in self-play for the lower and middle brackets.
You choose your current rating, your goal and the way to play, then pay at checkout. The boosters' premade team plays rated battlegrounds with your character until the rating is reached, and you follow progress in the order chat.
Piloted, self-play and remote control. Piloted goes all the way up the ladder; self-play and remote control cover the lower and middle brackets, and the price table shows where they stop.
No. If the character is not geared for the brackets you buy, add Honor gear for the lower ladder, or Conquest gear or the best-in-slot kit for the higher one, to the same order.
An add-on where every teammate in your group is a multi-season Rank 1 player. It is priced as a percentage on top of the order and suits the highest brackets.
No, rated battlegrounds are queued as a premade group. The rated battleground mode you can queue for alone is Battleground Blitz.
Rated battlegrounds are played by a premade group of ten and lead to the Hero titles. Blitz is queued solo, eight against eight, plays faster, has its own rating ladder and leads to the Strategist title.
Finish the PvP season in the top 0.5% of the rated battleground ladder with 50 games won that season. Alliance characters get Hero of the Alliance for the same result.
No. A rating order stops at the rating you choose, while the Hero titles depend on the final standings of the season. Each title is sold as its own order.
There is no fixed number. The gain changes from game to game, since it depends on the rating of the teams that meet.
Yes. Every rated game pays Honor and Conquest, and games at higher rating pay faster, which is why an RBG carry also gears the character faster.
It depends on how many brackets you buy and how high they are. The lower ones go quickly; near the top each win is harder to get. Express and Super Express speed put the order ahead for a percentage on top.
