Introduced in patch 3.1, as the Crusader's Coliseum was being built during the Ulduar tier of content.

Champion's Seals can be earned from various one-time quests to introduce players to the Coliseum, as well as numerous repeatable daily quests, and runs of Heroic Trial of the Champion.

Unlike other currency systems that were removed in patch 4.0.1, Champion's Seals remain, being required to purchase the various cosmetic city-faction rewards the Coliseum offers, as well as item-level 200 Rare-to-Epic gear, and Heirloom items (a handy alternative to using Justice Points).

I just turned lvl 83 and I can't select TOC anymore? Wth! That's 3 seals I can't get per day now...

Comment by 358770

I think you can solo the dungeons if you are good.

Comment by prohan

I believe they are now 100% drops from Champions Purse
(Patch 4.0.3a)

Comment by 353008

I'm in two minds about these seals now...

On one hand i feel blizzard should lower the price of their rewards because no one realistically will be using that ilvl 200 axe anymore.

But on the other, i know that i love my hippogryph and pets and that if they did lower them then it would cheapen them so to speak.

Comment by Sheepyhood

Should be noted that, at this time, these are unattainable for Worgens and Goblins.

Although a GM has told me they're working on it... so should be fixed in the next year or two ;P

Comment by 748649

Champion's Seal may be obtained through two means.

One) Complete the Daily Heroic Trial Of The Champion (one drops of each boss, total of three can be obtained per instance)

Two) Complete the Daily Quests.

In order to unlock the daily quests at the Argent Tournament Grounds you most first complete "The Aspirant's Challenge." This quest however takes a few days of annoying dailies to complete (3 days of three quests, i believe) These dailies can be obtained by the NPCs that stand to the left and right of "Magister Edien Sunhollow"

Once the "The Aspirant's Challenge" has been completed you are now known as an Aspirant (note: this isn't a title) and have access to the dailies brought forth by your factions.

Note: As goblins and worgens are new races brought out by Cataclysm and the Argent Tournament does not include these factions (as it is pre-cata) , So the only way, for the time being, of obtaining Champion's Seals is through Heroic TOC.
So if you want gear or BoAs (like me) do NOT do a faction change to goblin or worgen unless you are happy to only obtain 3 Champion's Seals per day.

Hope this helps, Keep smilin =P

EDIT : FOUND MORE VALUABLE INFO THAN MY OWN< PLEASE CHECK OUT THIS LINK

Champion's Seal

it has the old (not out-dated) info about the champion's seals and the daily grinds

Comment by moopert

Always in a Champion's purse nowadays. Decent option to obtain heirlooms if ya don't want to spend Justice points on em.

Comment by zaheer12a

The total amount of Champions seals you can get in one day:

3 dailies in your faction tent = 3 Seals
4 dailies in the most western tent = 5 Seals (Threat From Above rewards 2 seals)
4 Seals from Champion's Purse (one of the choices you get after completing the dailies named above this one)
2 dailies that are unlocked after attaining the Crusader title. (rewarding one seal each)
3 Seals from doing Trial of the Champion

Totalling 17 seals a day. (14 purely with dailies)

For convenience you can buy the Argent Crusader's Tabard for 50 seals to be able to teleport to the Tournament grounds every 30 minutes.

Also to buy all the mounts that are sold at the Argent tournament, of which there are fourteen, you will need to earn 1025 seals . This equals to 73 days of dailies, 61 if you do Trial of the Crusader every day. Additionally you can also buy the pets (if you have bad luck with Satchel of Exotic Mysteries and get none of these pets). There are six pets which cost 40 seals each, so a total of 240 seals. This equals to 18 days of dailies, 15 if you do Trial of the Champion.

Since the addition of the Toy Box, people will probably want the banners as well. Per faction there are 5 available banners and 1 neutral banner. All of them cost 15 seals, making it 90 seals for the banners alone. (Learning a banner for one faction will automatically learn the corresponding banner of the other faction, i.e. stormwind = orgrimmar)

Grand total: 1025 + 240 + 50 + 90 = 1405 seals

This will take 101 days of dailies or 83 if you do Trial of the Champion every next to the dailies. (Since this comment, Trial of the Champion is very easy to solo at level 90, so even easier at 100)

Updated for Toy Box items.

Comment by 817531

If you have guild level 23 perk Bountiful Bags you have a chance to get more then one seal out of your bag. Over the last week I have gotten 3 extra seals. It's not much but its something.
Also it may be just luck but every bag I have opened has had atleast 1 seal.

Comment by 817286

Got all my tournament pets in wotlk, but still missing some mounts so started to do tournament dailies again.

There are 10 daily quests available per day: 8 random + 1 Threat From Above + 1 Among the Champions
4 of those quests gives Champion's Purse - which 100% contains 1 champion's seal each (was looking for them while opening bags but there's no more item called "champion's seal" you can see those only in chat as green text and in "currency" section, that's the reason i doubt it can be affected by ).
Threat From Above is group quest level 80 with 2 champion's as the quest reward.

So you can get 14 seals from daily quests, and 3 from toc hc 5, total 17 per day.
*Actually amount of quests depends on your silver covenant reputation + reputation with cities + how close are you to A Silver Confidant. As you remember there are some prequests you have to do before actual daily quests will start.
*When you will have Get Kraken! (1 of random Hrothgar's landing quests - isle to the north from tournament grounds) after killing Kraken you have a chance (unsure if it's 100%) to obtain an item Kraken Tooth - which starts a quest (counts as daily), you have to just return it, reward is 13g,27 but no champion's seal (sadly)

Even at level 85 this daily quests will give you some real gold (around 150g), Champion's Purse's money-loot goes as "looted gold" so counts for achievement Got My Mind On My Money.
*For level 85 - each quest gives 13g,27, except Rescue at Sea - 9g,93. Also you will get 4 Champion's Purse which contains 10g each (+13g,27 from Identifying the Remains)

Comment by Luvaria

I've gotten a seal from every bag and sometimes two for the past week and a half.

Comment by halflife

I don't understand, to gain access to the heirlooms do you have to do the quests for Orgrimmar, Thunder Bluff, Undercity, Trolls and Silvermoon? before it unlocks?

I got "Champion of Orgrimmar" and then the 4 other factions opened up...

Comment by 965585

I'm not sure if something has changed or not but I never get a Champion's Seal in any of my Champion's Purses. The only thing that I get in the purses are 10 gold each.

Comment by 993983

I was wondering if anybody knows if there is a hard-cap on the maximum amount of Champion Seals you can have? :)

Thanks for all the help!

Comment by 1023485

You can buy a lot of mounts with this emblem. Also pets and banners.

Comment by 11294

My goodness these are a pain to get.

I just want 5 to buy a mount but you have to go though so many daily quests just to be able to start getting them.

They can also be received by doing heroic ToC, but the jousting phase makes it almost impossible to solo. I can solo raid content but get torn apart trying to joust.

Comment by CaptainEnrox

Can any 1 answer me why Deathknights have additional quests?

Comment by 258224

One note for the people who are working on collecting everything (Mounts and pets etc).
BEWARE when you faction change as most people know the whole tournament gets reset and you have to start over again,
HOWEVER if you are fully championed or perhaps even partially (cannot confirm the partially part only the fully one).
When you start over again the quest chain simply goes dead after completing the The Aspirant's Challenge therefore you cannot complete your first championing and simply cannot regain access to the set of quests that reward the champion purses.

An other thing the exalted silver convenant/sunreaver quests that give championing seals as well, might also not be assessable either if your not exalted before you faction change.
Making it an extreme pain to gain championing seals on your faction changed character.

Long story short if you consider completing all the pets and mounts on your character and you still need the tournament ones consider doing this before you faction change.

I know this is pretty much considered outdated content but still cant harm to warn no :)?

Comment by Eekwibble

MAJOR EDIT 2. As of WoD this post is no longer relevent.
MAJOR EDIT 1: As of patch 5.4 it is much easier to farm Justice Points with a level capped toon via MoP hcs and buy the heirlooms from your factions' justice heirloom QM.
As soon as 6.0 hits, according to this post, heirlooms will be purchasable for gold from guild vendors. It is also possible to obtain heirlooms from Darkmoon Faire, albeit at a painfully slow rate.

For heirloom grinders, this is what you will need to buy every heirloom the QM sells;

19 items @ 60 Seals

5 items @ 95 Seals

2 items @ 75 Seals

Total = 1765 Seals

Min/maxing (and assuming player level is 85 or higher and is exalted with all necessary factions including The Argent Crusade), the fastest time in which you can do this from the day you begin farming Seals is ~113 days.

Days 1 - 6; you can only get 3 Seals per day from running Trial of the Champion (unless you already have the 'Crusader' title unlocked - see below). You should do this every day for the duration of the grind.

Day 1; do the The Black Knight of Westfall?/The Black Knight of Silverpine? chain as far as you can, and the first day of the 3 days of Aspirant dailies. If you have at least one character on your account with the Crusader title you can also pick up the two dailies from Crusader Silverdawn and High Crusader Adelard. If these are available to you, do them every day. The rest of this guide assumes that you do not have access to them but gives revised calculations in brackets in case you do.

Day 3; do the last of the 3 days of Aspirant dailies and the first of the 5 days of Valiant dailies for your home city.

Day 7; do the last of the 5 days of Valiant dailies for your home city and complete the Black Knight quest chain for 3 Seals. When the Black Knight is dead you will open up 4 more dailies that will mean you can earn a total of 9 (11) Seals per day, 10 (12) Seals if you're lucky as the purses sometimes contain 2 Seals (so possibly even 11 (13), 12 (14) or 13 (15) if your rng is totally boss). Note: Death Knight's have a separate hub for these same quests, situated just west of the Trial of the Champion entrance

Days 8 - 26; do all the other factions' Valiant dailies. At around day 17 you will hit exalted with The Sunreavers/The Silver Covenant, opening up their 3 Seal-rewarding dailies.

Day 27, do the last day of Valiant dailies you will ever have to do and, if you didn't have the Crusader title already, unlock the remaining 2 Seal-rewarding dailies.

You have now unlocked Dame Evniki Kapsalis, the Crusader's Quartermaster, and will be able to earn 17 Seals per day, perhaps more as I've said, if you're lucky with the purses.

So, up to day 27 your total, min/maxed, will be ~314 (368) Seals, meaning you need another ~1451 (1397). This will take ~86 (83) more days giving a grand total of ~113 (110) days grinding.

This is just a min/max account of what is possible, obviously there are other avenues to take - Justice Points and PvP items (or pieces you feel you don't really need) - just bear in mind that you want to upgrade all these items to lvl85 so you will need a pretty hefty amount of JP so it's best to have them capped on day 27 to get a good start.

You can buy 4 or 5 of the 60-Seal items as soon as you unlock the QM and start upgrading them straight away, clearing your JP so you can start earning them again for the next purchase/s.

Also, bear in mind that you may not want every item sold here, which could reduce the actual number of Seals and JP you require by a considerable margin.
For example; Devout Aurastone Hammer is only best for Paladins leveling as holy (that would need to use the mail spellpower chest, shoulders, etc, so not an ideal choice of leveling spec), or Shamans leveling as restoration or elemental. All other spellcasting classes fare better with Dignified Headmaster's Charge, even with Musty Tome of the Lost taken into consideration; Repurposed Lava Dredger has the same stats and dps as Burnished Warden Staff but has a faster attack speed. It's such a minor difference that you will only need to buy one or the other, which one you choose just depends on the classes/specs you intend to level (you may not need either if you're going to level as a caster), and Venerable Dal'Rend's Sacred Charge is no longer useful to anyone other than combat Rogues.
There are other things, however, that you may wish to get two of, such as both trinkets, since no heirlooms are unique-equipped (other than Dread Pirate Ring which is obtainable only through the STV fishing competition), or two Balanced Heartseeker's for your Rogue (put a couple of Enchant Weapon - Agility's on those and you'll glide through mobs like a hot knife wielding Rogue through butter all the way to lvl60), or two Bloodied Arcanite Reaper's for your lvl38+ Titan's Gripping fury Warrior (with a couple of Crusader's for very similar but much more overpowered 'hot axe through butter' results), which may seem like overkill to some but what's wrong with a bit of overkill when it means you can tank dungeons in dps spec?

Overall I would say 1500 Seals should get you more than enough to fill your needs.

1495 gets you;

2 x Discerning Eye of the Beast

2 x Swift Hand of Justice

2 x Venerable Mass of McGowan - Enh Shaman

2 x Balanced Heartseeker - Sub/Ass Rogue

2 x Bloodied Arcanite Reaper - Fury Warrior

1 x Bloodsoaked Skullforge Reaver - Prot Warrior/Paladin

1 x Burnished Warden Staff - Feral/Guardian Druid, Windwalker/Brewmaster Monk, Enh Shaman (for whom staff wielding is possible but it's far better to use the maces)

1 x Dignified Headmaster's Charge - Balance/Restoration Druid, Warlock, Mage, Mistweaver Monk, Priest

1 x Charmed Ancient Bone Bow - Hunter

1 x set of chest and shoulders of each armour type; cloth, leather, mail and plate.

That's a total of ~97 (94) days.
Add 120 Seals - ~7 days - for each type of leather, mail or plate armour of which you want to get both melee or caster dps, tank or dps, or healer or dps, sets.

EDIT: Changed Dread Pirate Ring info - thanks to Dimmulux, I thought it had disappeared with the Kalu'ak fishing derby - also added that DMF tickets can purchase heirlooms. Note: DMF tickets will get you one heirloom per month, at the most, the most expensive ones will take two DMF weekends worth of dailies to buy.
EDIT [5.4.8}: Added most recent info on 6.0 launch.

Comment by Saucery

something to think about: when faction switching by the paid service from blizzard your sub reps with these guys get reset so you have to start all over again.

Comment by coolguyry

A tip for those wanting to solo Heroic ToC regarding the "jousting" phase (From a level 90 Retribution Paladin's PoV):

First off, if you don't want to hear the massively long roleplay speech Tirion gives there's a second option to click on while speaking to the guy in the center in the arena that lets you skip it.

Okay. Now equip one of the lances and mount on one of the Argent Warhorses against the wall. When you have done that, one pack of adds from a random champion faction will become active and attackable. At this point you could try to damage the adds with your newly acquired horse, but there's a better way.

Let the adds just wail on the horse (it's considered a vehicle) killing it. At this point you can kill off the group of adds one by one until the champion bosses become active and attackable.

Now this is the part that can make or break you. The champion bosses have a tendency to constantly stun while you attempt to do damage on them, but your damage output is made worse on them due to the fact they will have their shield buff while you're doing man to man-on-horse combat. If you have any defensive cooldowns along with offensive cooldowns now would be the time to use them. After enough patience they should all be dismounted and the melee phase can begin.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Even though back in the Wrath days it was common for your party in this instance to use their horses to run over the champion bosses after they were dismounted, you can use your regular spells and abilities just fine to stun them and stop them from mounting another one of the mounts so they can continue to trample on you.

I hope this helps players who have been wanting to do ToC for the three extra seals but have always felt daunting by the first challenge!

Comment by Grummulthrus

Easy way to solo the (mounted) joust champions on Normal or Heroic: Once your horse gets below 50%, stay within clicking range of other horses and don't kill anyone until you can drag them to the middle. No defensive cooldowns required. You have a short window between being dismounted and when the stuns begin (1-2s) where you can spam right click other horses, even if your horse died. If successful you simply hop onto the next horse. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Comment by seitori

For those collectors coming back for these seals in WoD, here's a couple tips:

- Heroic Trial of the Champion is an easy solo at 100 now (the opening jousting fight was rough before). You can do this for three seals from day one--make sure it's on Heroic difficulty--even if you haven't touched the dailies yet.

- Likewise, the Boneguard Commanders for Battle Before The Citadel are now easily taken down by high level characters on foot.

It bears repeating that if you achieved "Crusader" rank on another realm or character, it's account-wide. Fresh characters arriving at the tournament will have access to Dame Evniki Kapsalis for the Crusader-level rewards and the two Crusader dailies right away, yielding a start of five seals per day. For access to the remaining dailies, the good news is you don't have to go through every valiant run again. The bad news is you will need to complete aspirant and valiant with your home city. However, exalted reputation with your home city is not required.

You will still need exalted status with The Sunreavers/The Silver Covenant to unlock their dailies. Doing the other tournament dailies will get you reputation with them, or you can grind WotLK dungeons (without wearing a faction tabard) if you're in a hurry.

Comment by 0Aloreth

How many of these can you get every day?

Comment by frakbt

For those of you looking to start the quests for these: talk to Justicar Mariel Trueheart at 70,23 in Icecrown.

Comment by toppjubei

If you're doing ToC, don't stress if you're not looting champion's seals. They loot automatically.

Comment by zedaz

7.1 patch only 5 dailies for me, have all the achievements and reputations, no purse rewards, so only 5 seals from dailies + 3 from dungeon

Comment by Soyeonee

Not sure why I thought the 4 champion's purses no longer contain the seals but as of 7.1.5 they do.

Comment by Bloodshrike

Attention Mount Collectors!
Here's a quick heads up. Before, the mounts from the Argent Tournament were not account-wide, so you would have to grind out 1050 Champion's Seals if you wanted all the expensive mounts on both factions, from all the capitol city quartermasters. Apparently, as of patch 7.2.5, you are automatically granted the corresponding mount from the other faction. I had ground out 400 Champion Seals on one of my Alliance alts a while ago, after seeing that I didn't have the corresponding Argent Tournament mounts, even though my Horde main had collected everything years ago.

However, my alt didn't have exalted reps with the capitol cities, so I was occasionally running through Stockades to grind out rep. I finally got exalted on all factions needed, and headed out to the Tournament. Low and behold, I already knew all the mounts that the quartermasters sold! I guess I can buy 10 of the pets and sell them on the AH for 12-20K each.

Comment by Rotok

~~As of 7.3.5, it looks like my lvl 102 is no longer getting Champions Seals from the Heroic Trial of the Champion.~~
As of 01/17/2018, it seals are back, but as lootable items that then go to currency vs when it went directly to currency.

Comment by GeertJan

After opening one Champion's Purse, a reward that you can select, you get a Champion's Seal and 10 gold.
To unlock all the dailys, you need

A Champion Rises for 6 x Champion's Seal
unlocks:

The Black Knight's Fate for 3 x Champion's Seal below level 110
unlocks:

Threat From Above

A Silver Confidant for 3 x Champion's Seal
unlocks three of the following:

Exalted Argent Champion of the Alliance for 2 x Champion's Seal
unlocks two of the following:

and complete Heroic: Trial of the Champion for 3 x Champion's Seal
you loot them from

and one is dropped from

The Black Knight

This brings the daily total to
14 x Champion's Seal for a lvl 67 - 79 character (heroic: Trial of the Champions not available)
17 x Champion's Seal for a lvl 80 - 110 character

Comment by hotcore

As of 8.0, you can now get a seal from doing normal TOC. This should make this grind much easier as you can simply farm normal over and over for seals.

Comment by Techmarine01

I'm not sure how all of these other people are getting so many Seals even after "finishing" the reputation and unlocking all of the quests.

I finished all of the reputation and quest unlocking years ago. Went back a few days ago to have a look at buying a few more heirloom pieces and noticed Blizzard added a few more pets and toys since I last did these dailies. I only get two quests from the Argent tent and 3 from the Alliance tent for a total of five Champion's Seals per day.

Comment by Liukus

Having come back to this after years of not doing it, I wanted a little more automation of the turn-in process for these quests:

Regular Quests	Quests	Rewards

Battle Before The Citadel/Battle Before The Citadel	Battle Before The Citadel/Battle Before The Citadel	Champion's Writ or Champion's Purse

Taking Battle To The Enemy/Taking Battle To The Enemy	Taking Battle To The Enemy/Taking Battle To The Enemy	Champion's Writ or Champion's Purse

Below is a macro that will turn-in all the Champion's Purse / Champion's Writ quests and always select the Champion's Purse.

Comment by Vortilion01

Problem is, I just switched to an allied race and can't spend the Seals anymore. :-(

Comment by Ezekeel

It is actually possible to earn more than 17 in a day. Could not see anyone mentioning this, the last boss of Trial of the Champion in normal mode gives one of these as well. If you are just a few seals short, you can clear, reset, and repeat for some additional seals.

Comment by christoph23

As of 8.3 you can spam Trial of Champion on Normal Mode. Last boss drops 1x Champion Seal's = 10x per hour

Comment by hakty

Im not sure many people know but you can also run Trial of the Champion normal 10x an hour for 1 seal so you can get 37 in a day if you have the time

Comment by yocozome

So I have noticed that you cannot farm those anymore during prepatch. I have spent so many days trying to get all the mounts and now it looks like I am stuck. Does anyone have any idea if we will be able to resume farming these? It will be a shame if not. Feels like my work for 1+ month was in vain right now. Hope Blizzard will do something about it.

Comment by GeezerBahl

For those farming this with a high level character... you do not have to do any fighting with the Argent Lance while on a horse. Simply equip the lance (I added it to one of my actionbar buttons), mount a horse and talk to Arelas Brightstar. Select "I am ready. However, I'd like to skip the pagentry." Once you do that, you can dismount and equip your normal weapon.

Comment by Dragoress

If you decide to farm the Champion's Seal through the normal Dungeon (1 Seal per Dungeon) here is a tip to kill the first boss a lot faster.
For the first boss you need to have the Spear on and being mounted.
1. Get the Spear and mount up
2. Speak to the NPC and skip the intro Line
3. While the teams are spawning, dismount and use aoe effects where the enemies spawn to instantly kill them.

With that you can kill the "mounted part" Enemies easy with normal spells.

If you dismount after the enemy is already up and you see the lifebar, the enemies reset and vanish. So do it right after you clicked the NPC.

Comment by Sportyweiz

From Trial of the champion you can get 3 from heroic and 1 from normal (you can run this 10 times before daily lockout)

Comment by boogg

Farming this on normal a little bit but quickly noticed a few issues. Resetting then entering sometimes causes no npcs to spawn so you have to leave and reset again, sometimes the first bosses just stand there once defeated and you have to drop combat to reset (with stealth) or leave the instance via 60sec timer.

Comment by EmEcZkA

I started very late wotlk, just before cata, this is one of the last things for me to do. Looks like a solid farm for few months...

Comment by Zylideum

Champion's Seals are now Warband transferable! No need to farm these for months to purchase all the goods. Use your alt army, transfer seals, and progress much faster than before.
