Order Advancement Summary

The first tier is a choice between increasing the success chance of the first mission per day or increasing the chance that leveling quest rewards have rare or epic upgrades.

The second tier is a choice between either an ability that enhances your missions/troops or a creative, class-specific perk that unlocks toys, pets, hidden Artifact achievements, etc.

The third tier increases the number of troops you can recruit, or it allows you to acquire Champion equipment via Work Orders or Missions.

The fourth tier lets you choose between ways to strengthen your troops: roughly 5% base success or 15% success in certain conditions.

The fifth tier has some variation between classes. It includes access to special third troops, instant completion of a World Quest every 3 days, Order Resources per World Quests completed with a Combat Ally, or a Work Order for a Seal of Broken Fate.

The sixth tier increases the number of Legendary items that can be equipped!

Rank 7 Order Advancement lets you choose between increasing the Champion cap or recruiting a powerful type of troop.

Rank 8 Order Advancement allows you to gain more Artifact Power from World Quests and missions that already grant AP.

Handy guide! Question: Most classes have the tier 5 ability to place a work order for a Seal in exchange for resources -- what is the cost of this work order?

Comment by 1461072

Typo under Unlocking Order Hall Advancement, Tier 3: forgot a closing bracket.

Comment by bithalver

Tier 2: Paladin: Ritual of Summoning
I feel disturbance in the fel force here ... ;)

Comment by Ashendal

Increases the chance for quest rewards to get a rare or epic Bonus Upgrade from non-repeatable quests.

Does this apply to world quests or only leveling quests? World Quests are
technically "repeatable" so I'm not sure if this is a useless choice or not considering how fast leveling is.

Edit: So basically a trap pick then. Sad that those are still around even if it's only the level 1 option. =/ Thanks for the answer.

Comment by Altorion

"If you have assigned a Combat Ally, completing World Quests yield 100 per quest." Seems like those 5 classes get a significant advantage in order resource generation that others don't have an equivalent for. I would absolutely take that if it were an option for mages, hopefully things won't be too gated by resources without it.

Comment by ealdrich

Note there is no interface warning about it being a swap vs researching both. To be clear, it's a swap, and there is no going back if you accidentally click on researching one you don't want. Just cost me two days of progress.

Comment by dmbergman

"Broot and Nightmare Lasher are non-traceable battle pets."

Non-tradable

Comment by Mayzen

For the Tier 1 option to increase mission succes chance by 20% for the first mission of the day, it is important to remember that the daily reset (EU) is now 7:00 am UTC, which for daylight savings time makes it 9:00 am CET.
I keep forgetting that when sending misisons in the morning.

Comment by 194718

confused. if this is such a great guide, why doesn't it tell us WHERE to go to pick up the work orders, when u choose the soil plots. says i have a work order ready, but NO IDEA where to go to get it. guess i will check around the guy with the class order progress tree, since that is where I chose the "2 plots of soil". not sure why the game wouldn't make this more clear. if it is, i am obviously missing it!

Comment by CoopMoe

I'm looking at the tier 5 upgrades, specifically the ones that complete a world quest. I've seen in some posts/guides/etc. that this only works on non-elite world quests (no gold dragon border). Can anyone confirm that this is in fact true? The only reason I would consider this upgrade would be to complete a dungeon world quest to a dungeon I've already been saved to since the time investment to even run it on heroic just for a chance that something may upgrade high enough doesn't seem worth it.

Comment by Nobalk

The shaman tier 5 (as well as a few other classes) have the option to get a seal of broken fate each week in exchange for resources. How is this going to work if I can use my resources already to purchase seals from the vendor in dalaran? Is this option worth picking or should I go with my other choice? Any info you have would be great. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Didn't notice there was already a comment about this, but that comment also does not answer my concerns.

Comment by Vana21

If you get down to lower tiers, you will not lose other tiers.

For example, if you are at tier 5 and want to switch tier 2, you do not lose tiers 3, 4, and 5. You keep them

Comment by Aslatar

Thanks for the guide, handy for me checking for alts, though still trying to get info on some of the specific options.

2 Corrections for the guide- DK tier 1 only gives a 10% bonus chance (with the requirement of sending Ghouls or Geist Swarm on the mission). Quite the ripoff compared to so many others getting 20%, often without having any requirement on them.

To be fair, this is offset by Tier 4 also being incorrect above- for DK's the 2nd option does not give a +15% success chance. Instead, when created those troops gain the ability to counter a boss (random which of the 3). This is usually worth WAY more than 15% mission success chance. You still have to send an actual hero on the mission, but I've had ravagers that on their own put the mission at 95% success chance. Unlike heros, there is no reduced effectiveness from being under iLvl, since they have no iLvl.

Comment by lpm555

Once you complete tier 6, how do you equip the second legendary weapon. I don't see an extra slot so I don't see how to get a second legendary to be made available.

Comment by MainSoul

As of current patch, the Frost Wyrm choice for T5 was changed to once every 18 hours, no longer once every 3 days.

Comment by skylinkdave

What's the best way for Shamans to get upgrade tokens for followers? There's no advancement option for placing orders for follower upgrades, and the Supply Dropped quest is too unpredictable to be a reliable source for upgrade tokens. Any suggestions?

Edit: I have the tier 3 upgrade Ancestral Gift but it too is too unreliable.

Comment by Tdminial

I have a main Paladin and absolutely love "Grand Crusade" (completing wq once every 18 hrs) and seeing as the DH my friend leveled had the same possibility I assumed this went for every class and I could happily level my hunter, too.
Now, yes, I could've read up on it before I did, but imagine my surprise when I found out hunters DON'T get something like that, but instead can either do wq's with a follower for orderressources (which I don't, bc those a**holes pull things I really don't need to kill) or I can make Seals of Broken Fate - which yeah, this is an alt that I really doubt is going to do that much raiding, and if it does it's for the quests Blizzard keeps throwing at me, not bc I want to.

On the bright side, now I don't have to upgrade the hunter class hall, so hurrah for all the order ressources I'm saving that I really need to do what the heck ever. My eternal gratefulness to Blizzard for this one.

The guide's good though, kudos for that

Comment by Soundfx4

Does anyone know why the first tier requires level 100, yet you apparently aren't able to pick any order advancements at all until level 101 and you complete a quest? Is there a reason for that? Doesn't seem to add up to me.

Comment by InvertedHelix

So for people wondering about the Tier 3 Order Hall advancement that gives you the work orders for Champion Equipment, I have tracked two characters for 20 work orders each.

Paladin
13 Heavy Armor Set
3 Fortified Armor Set
1 Fruitful Bauble
1 Potion of Triton
1 Elixir of Overwhelming Focus
1 Carrot on a Stick

Death Knight
9 Heavy Armor Set
2 Fortified Armor Set
2 Indestructible Armor Set
2 Swift Boots
1 Well-Worn Stone
1 Fruitful Bauble
1 Hasty Pocketwatch
1 Draught of Courage
1 Undead Token

So this is a data set of 40, which isn't great for such a broad set of possibilities, but no one else seems to have posted any data set at all.

From this data had about a 27.5% of getting Champion Equipment, while 72.5% were Champion Armaments.

8 out of 11 of the Equipment were Greens, with 2 Epics, and 1 Rare. This is a pretty small set.

The Armaments had 5 rare out of 29, and 2 epic out of 29.

Comment by Rhodis

About tier 5 for Demon Hunters

Why choosing Fel Hammer's Wrath is still better than choosing Focused War Effort:

Seals of broken fate are capped at 3 in a week for all sources, and a total max of 6.

This means even if you could fill orders for these seals, the max you'll get in a week is 3, and 6 total.

Even if this situation looks sexy to you, you can only use Focused War effort once in a week!.

In short, choosing Focused war effort will save you 2000 order resources or 3000 gold at maximum per week. Probably much less since you can, like, spend 1000g in one seal, 1000 order resources in another and the last one being the one from the FWE skill. Assuming, of course, you WILL spend every seal you have every week.

On the other hand, choosing Fel Hammer's wrath will net you every 18 hours order resources, gold, artifact power, blood of sargeras and other stuff on a single click. And in comparison to choosing Focused War Effort, you'll spend either 2000 gold or order resources more a week on this talent, which is a small amount since gold is easy on this xpac by selling trash only, and you can complete emissary quests using Fel Hammer's Wrath which can reward extra order resources!

Comment by Snowy6

A chance to receive champion equipment for mission bonuses and armanents to increase champion ilvl from the Class Hall missions.
Druid: Reclamation
Monk: Pilgrimage
Shaman: Ancestral Gift

The rate at which these give any reward seems very low

Comment by sakera

Great guide. One suggestion though. Could you list the classes in alphabetical order for the tier tables? It would make it a lot easier to pick out a specific class without having to jump up and down the list when looking at the multiple tier options.

Comment by kanemochi

Small error in 7.2 update: Tier 6 upgrade takes 1 day, not 18 hours.

Comment by wraithslayer

I haven't researched the Tier 7 upgrade, yet (not sure if an extra follower is better than the minions, but I think so), and I have six active followers. Five on missions, one as a bodyguard. Did the limit get upped to six, even without the Tier 7 upgrade?

Comment by Xelan255

Why do you acknowledge the reduced time and resource costs that came with 7.2, but still write the old ones right below that?

Comment by 323412

Just an FYI. If you activate the Demonic Brutes Order Advancement, train two Felguard Brutes (make sure they have different bonus abilities) and then swap to the Roster of Champions Order Advancement you can have two Felguard Brutes AND a 7th Champion at the same time.

They can be kept alive using the Iresoul's Healthstones that can be created by the Champion Kira Iresoul returning from a successful Order Hall Mission.

Comment by lotus1197

does tier 3 class hall upgrades work for 7.3 Champion Equipment? Cannot seem to find an answer

Comment by Jacevandever

It's a bit late now, but it's worth noting that if you have any of the six that get the "complete a non-elite world quest" perk as an unplayed alt, you can keep them topped up with order hall resources to spend on the gold giving missions just by logging in and completing the highest resource mission available from your order hall in a matter of seconds.

I've barely touched my mage and paladin all expansion and have all followers at 900 item level and decked out in good armaments (you don't need to go any higher than 900 to get the best gold missions, in fact, staying at 900 and not unlocking Argus missions gives "easier" missions that don't require the expensive Argus troops to complete) just by doing this and completing work orders for equipment from the mobile app.

Comment by TheStatman

Some 8.0.1 changes, tier 8 is gone completely, and the "complete a non-elite world quest" perks have been replaced, for example Warriors get Bladestorm which is "Increases success chance of missions with Minions by 15%".
