The neutral city of Halaa is prized for its strategic importance to both factions. As a highly visible target, with its own unique rewards, the city is the focus for the world PvP that occurs in Nagrand.

By defeating enemy players in the city's vicinity, you gain Halaa Battle Tokens which can be redeemed for a selection of PvP-focused rewards. You can purchase these rewards from special NPCs who only appear for the controlling side. Other vendors also sell special jewelcrafting plans and gems to the side in control of Halaa.

In addition, friendly players in Nagrand get a buff of a +5% damage boost when the city is in their side's possession. The passive buff helps for questing as well as fighting enemy players.

Besides the rewards, there are other motivations for fighting over Halaa. Foremost among these is that it's a fun objective. The feeling of fighting hard to take over a town with your allies, defeating the enemy, and seeing your side's flag raised in town can be very gratifying. You and your allies will surely feel a “woot!” coming on when you see it happen.

Attacking Halaa
Marshalling the Troops The side who controls Halaa receives several benefits when defending it from subsequent attack:

The battle for Halaa is often a numbers game. If the enemy has more players, you're going to need to do hit-and-run tactics or get more players on your side. Try asking in the General, Local Defense, or World Defense channels for more players. Shattrath City is quite close to Halaa so you can send someone to ask for reinforcements.

It's common to ask if there are any PvP groups going if you're interested in joining in Halaa PvP Combat. Then join and invite players as needed. If you have more than 5 players, start a raid group and balance the groups.
