Silithus World PvP Objective Overview Eastern Plaguelands World PvP Guide
Silithus
Geysers of Silithyst spawn throughout Silithus. Collecting this resource will reward you with some reputation, honor, and the powerful buff Traces of Silithyst, which increases Melee and spell damage dealt by 5% for 30 minutes.
If your faction is faster to collect 200 Silithyst than the opposing faction, all members of your faction gain a zone-wide (Silithus and Ahn'Qiraj) buff, Cenarion Favor, which increases Cenarion Circle reputation gained from killing monsters by 25%.
How to Participate
Search Silithus for a Silithyst Geyser. When you find one, interact with it to gain Silithyst. This will flag you for PvP (if not already), give you a red aura, and limit your movement speed. If you mount, stealth, or are attacked, you will drop your Silithyst, creating a Silithyst Mound, which anyone can interact with to pick the Silithyst up again.

Alternatively, find and attack a member of the opposing faction that is carrying Silithyst. This will cause them to drop their Silithyst, and then once you have killed them or driven them away, you can pick up the Silithyst from the Silithyst Mound. Once you have Silithyst, head to your faction's camp to turn it in at a Silithyst Extractor.
Eastern Plaguelands
There are four towers in Eastern Plaguelands for the Alliance and the Horde to contest control of. Each tower grants a unique benefit to all players from the controlling faction in the zone:
TowerBenefit
Crown Guard Tower
Grants the controlling faction use of the nearby graveyard.
Eastwall Tower
A group of NPCs spawns and heads to the Northpass Tower.
Northpass Tower
Grants the controlling faction access to an altar inside. Interacting with it gives players Lordaeron's Blessing, a buff that increases health by 5% in Eastern Plaguelands, Stratholme, and Scholmance for 30 minutes.
Plaguewood Tower
The controlling faction can use a spectral Flight Master in the tower, who offers flights to any other tower.
Controlling one or more towers will grant a buff to everyone on your faction in Eastern Plaguelands (it does not apply to players in Naxxramas) that increases damage dealt to undead. The effects of this buff scale with the number of towers that your faction controls:

How to Participate
To participate, head to any of the towers in the zone that your faction does not control or that the opposing faction is attacking.
Crown Guard Tower
Eastwall Tower
Northpass Tower
Plaguewood Tower
When you are near or in a tower, a bar will show the capture progress of the tower. You must have PvP enabled and not be stealthed to progress the capture bar. When one faction has more eligible members in range of a tower, it will begin capturing the tower.
Once the capture bar has reached your faction, the tower will begin granting your faction its benefits!
