Rewards
Codex title track honor points are gained by winning consecutive matches in the Codex arena. 1 point is awarded at 5 matches, an additional 2 by winning 10, and so on, up to 4 points at 20 matches. After the 20 match limit, 4 points are awarded every 5 matches.

The following Faction rewards are given in the Codex Arena:
 * Unique kill: 40 Faction
 * Victory: 50 Faction
 * Consecutive wins: 50 Faction for every 5 consecutive wins
 * Flawless victory: 50 Faction

Tips

 * Resurrection Signet can be used to bring back fallen allies quickly and efficiently, and will be recharged after a battle. Avoid the hard rez skills (especially Rebirth, Vengeance and Resurrect) because they leave both the caster and the revived vulnerable.
