The current balance of the warbonds can be checked at any time by opening the WB shop or the Battle Task menu. Warbonds have no expiration date and accumulate on the player's account. The maximum number of warbonds that can be simultaneously on the account is 3,600 {{Wb}}. If receiving a warbond reward from the Battle Pass would result in a total greater than the limit, a notice will be presented to the player allowing them to choose between receiving a partial reward immediately and losing any surplus warbonds, or postponing reception of the reward until enough warbonds have been spent that redeeming the full reward would no longer be above the limit.
;Special tasks
 
"Special tasks" are a type of battle tasks that will reward you with medals. These medals are necessary to unlock the access to some goods in the shop in addition to unlocking shop levels. A certain number of medals is needed to get access to different items in the WB shop:

* 3 medals - Decals & Decorators

== New Battle Pass season ==
The current balance of the warbonds can be checked at any time by opening the WB shop or the Battle Task menu. Warbonds have no expiration date and accumulate on the player’s account. The maximum number of WBs that can be simultaneously on the account is 3,600 {{Wb}}. When receiving warbonds, any warbond amount above the limit of 3,600 will be lost. The game will however warn you and leave you the possibility to buy something to avoid losing wabonds.

When a new battle pass season starts, the warbonds gained remain in your account. Only the Shop level and the Special tasks for the new season are reset to 0. The previous Warbond shop remains accessible for 7 days.

Wb icon.png Warbonds (WB) are a special in-game currency earned by reaching specific Battle Pass levels. These are used in the Warbond shop, whose inventory changes at the beginning of each Battle Pass season.

Shop inventory

At the WB shop, the following items can be purchased:

  • Special tasks
  • Universal backups
  • Boosters
  • Orders
  • Vehicle test drives
  • Profile icons
  • Camouflages
  • Decals
  • Talismans
  • Wagers
  • Decorators
  • Premium vehicles

Battle trophy

Some items are randomized through a battle trophy acting like a chest: you can't chose which item you receive, it is randomly picked from a preset list but you can't receive an already owned item. Affected items are:

  • Orders (from the list defined in the battle trophy)
  • Profile icons (from the list defined in the battle trophy)
  • Camouflages (only for a vehicle you own)
  • Talismans (only for a vehicle you own)
  • Wagers (from the list defined in the battle trophy)
  • Decorators (from the list defined in the battle trophy)

Shop levels

The Warbond shop has its own separate progress scale. Successful execution of daily tasks and special tasks increases your battle pass level, which allows for more options to be available. There are six shop levels, accessible when unlocking the corresponding level of the Battle Pass:

  • Level I - unlocks when reaching level 1.
  • Level II - unlocks when reaching level 11.
  • Level III - unlocks when reaching level 23.
  • Level IV - unlocks when reaching level 37.
  • Level V - unlocks when reaching level 57.
  • Level VI - unlocks when reaching level 80.

You can check which shop level you've reached in the WB shop menu or on the Battle Tasks menu. The shop inventory changes at the start of every Battle Pass season. The number of days during which you can spend warbonds for the inventory of the current (or previous) season is displayed in the upper left corner of the WB shop.

Special tasks

"Special tasks" are a type of battle tasks that will reward you with medals. These medals are necessary to unlock the access to some goods in the shop in addition to unlocking shop levels. The following number of medals is needed to get access to different items in the WB shop:

  • no medal - Universal backups and Boosters
  • 1 medal - Vehicle test drives & Profile icons
  • 2 medals - Vehicle camouflages (Rank I-III for Aircraft and Ground vehicles)
  • 3 medals - Vehicle camouflages (Rank IV-V for Aircraft and Ground vehicles) & Decals
  • 5 medals - Vehicle camouflages (Rank VI-VII for Aircraft and Ground vehicles) & Decorators
  • 10 medals - Premium vehicles (Rank I-II)
  • 12 medals - Talismans (Rank I-III for Aircraft and Ground vehicles; Rank I-II for Bluewater ships and Coastal vessels)
  • 15 medals - Premium vehicles (Rank III, with the exception of Rank II for Coastal vessels)
  • 20 medals - Talismans (Rank IV for Aircraft and Ground vehicles; Rank III for Bluewater ships and Coastal vessels)
  • 40 medals - Talismans (Rank V for Aircraft and Ground vehicles, Rank IV for Bluewater ships)

Balance

The current balance of the warbonds can be checked at any time by opening the WB shop or the Battle Task menu. Warbonds have no expiration date and accumulate on the player's account. The maximum number of warbonds that can be simultaneously on the account is 3,600 Wb icon.png. If receiving a warbond reward from the Battle Pass would result in a total greater than the limit, a notice will be presented to the player allowing them to choose between receiving a partial reward immediately and losing any surplus warbonds, or postponing reception of the reward until enough warbonds have been spent that redeeming the full reward would no longer be above the limit.

New Battle Pass season

When a new battle pass season starts, the warbonds gained remain in your account. Only the Shop level and the Special tasks for the new season are reset to 0. The previous Warbond shop remains accessible for 7 days.
