New Honor Point Rewards for Pre-Wrath of the Lich King Launch

I shared with you all last night that Blizzard was going to wipe and reset the honor points and honor tokens when Wrath goes live, to add a little more incentive and give us an outlet to be rid of the points before we lose them completely, new items were going to be added. I agree with the decision to clean the slate and start at zero honor and tokens in Wrath, but these rewards are VERY lackluster and not very appealing in the least. It’s all pretty much loot that we can already get in some way via heroic badges or current honor.

Here’s the list provided on the forums. (src)
