UPDATED: Currency Conversions Coming with Patch 4.4.0 on April 30 - Cataclysm Classic

Editor's note: Blizzard later confirmed that there are no plans to convert Sidereal Essence or Defiler’s Scourgestones.

Axxelsian: Are there any plans for conversions of Sidereal Essence or Defiler’s Scourgestones?

We are not planning to convert these. Going forward, you can collect them and use them as before.

In preparation for the Cataclysm Classic pre-patch, Blizzard has elaborated on conversions for Justice Points, PvP currency, and more. Players can expect this system to go live after the weekly maintenance next week.

Greetings!As we prepare for the release of the Cataclysm Classic pre-patch next week, we want to update you on some of the currency conversions that will take place during maintenance. Just like the original transition from Wrath of the Lich King to Cataclysm, the currency systems used for purchasing many items in Cataclysm Classic will change.

Justice Points

Emblems of Triumph and Emblems of Frost will be converted into Justice Points, and there will be a cap, as detailed below. All emblems and badges that are lesser than Frost and Triumph will be converted into gold. This includes legacy badges, such as Badges of Justice. If any of these older currencies are found on your character, they will convert into gold, and you’ll receive that gold via in-game mail.Any bosses that you defeat that are level-appropriate to you (that previously awarded badges or emblems upon defeat) will now award Justice Points. Similarly, any items that previously cost emblems or badges of any type will now cost Justice Points.We’re planning for these conversions to mirror those of the original Cataclysm. Outdated emblems will convert directly to gold:

• 1 Badge of Justice → 1 gold 83 silver 30 copper
• 1 Emblem of Heroism → 5 gold 50 silver
• 1 Emblem of Valor → 5 gold 50 silver
• 1 Emblem of Conquest → 5 gold 50 silver
• Current emblems (Triumph and Frost) will convert to Justice Points at a rate of 11.58 Justice Points per emblem:
  
  1 Emblem of Triumph → 11.58 Justice
