🎟️ What Is the Honor Pass?[]
The Honor Pass is a seasonal premium battle pass within Honor of Kings. It allows players to unlock exclusive cosmetic rewards—such as hero skins (sometimes up to Legendary rarity), emotes, frames, tokens, and more—by completing quests and earning XP each season. Players can purchase either the basic version (around 388 tokens) or a deluxe version (often about 1288 tokens) for enhanced perks such as extra rewards or earlier access.
💰 Token Economics & Value[]
- Refund on completion: Buying the basic Honor Pass (388 tokens) generally gives back the token cost once fully completed—meaning you break even in tokens if you finish it.
- Token usage: Earned Honor Pass tokens can be spent on skins, draws, or limited items in the Honor Pass shop. Importantly, unlike "limited-time tokens", they do not expire at season's end and can be carried over into future seasons.
🎮 Progression & Quest Structure[]
- Daily & weekly quests: XP can be gained from both. Weekly quests are repeatable and even increase over time to help players catch up if they missed early progress.
- Fast-track ability: Players who consistently log in and play matches can organically progress through the Honor Pass rewards without needing to buy the deluxe version.
There are different tiers, including Mini, Elite, and Deluxe.
🏆Rank vs Honor Pass Seasons[]
- Rank Seasons' durations differs from those of Honor Pass. Typically, a rank season lasts longer up to about 4-6 months, while an Honor Pass would last around 2-4 months. Hence, of 26.7.25, Honor Pass hold its S14 pass while Rank holds its 11th season.
🗣️ Player Feedback & Community Insights[]
- Some players describe Honor Pass skins as “underwhelming,” saying they feel comparable to rare or standard skins, not epic or legendary quality. The price for gacha draws (20 tokens per spin, up to ~75 spins for guaranteed draw) can be seen as high relative to perceived quality.
- Still, many in the community suggest it’s worth purchasing if you plan to play the game regularly and want to accumulate tokens and rewards. Skipping the more expensive deluxe tier is often advised unless you’re seeking something very specific.

- Completing enough tiers returns the token cost (e.g. spend ~388 tokens, earn ~398 tokens back).
- A gacha-style chest (Elite Pass pack) often guarantees the pass by level 40; draws cost around 10 tokens each, making it possible to effectively earn tokens instead of spending them.

✅ Tips If You're Considering It[]
- Play consistently (daily/weekly tasks) to finish the basic pass and get your tokens back.
- Store tokens if your favorite skin isn’t out yet—they won’t expire.
- Consider deluxe only if you really like the featured skin—otherwise the free/basic path offers better value.
- Token draws can be costly—many recommend waiting until you’re sure you’ll use them wisely.
