Valor Point Conversion in 4.2
World of Warcraft update 4.2, Rage of the Firelands, will introduce the first new raid tier in Cataclysm, and with that it will also introduce the first conversion from Valor Points to Justice Points. For anyone running Heroics and raids, this is important information to ensure you spend your points wisely before release of the patch.
With the release of patch 4.2 all Valor Points will be converted down to Justice Points up to the 4000 point cap, with any points over the cap being converted to gold at a rate of 47 silver per point. In addition, all previous Tier 11 Valor items will now be purchasable with Justice from the Justice Point vendors, and new Tier 12 Valor items will be available from the Valor vendors.
For example: I have 3300 Justice Points and 1600 Valor Points. Upon logging in after 4.2 releases I’ll see that my Valor has been down-converted to Justice; I now have 4000 Justice Points and 0 Valor Points. 900 of my Valor Points were over the 4000 point cap, they converted at a rate of 47 silver per point (.47x900), and so I received 423 gold as compensation.
The maximum you can have is 4000 Justice points, and Justice will be able to buy Tier 11 gear, so it’s important to go ahead and spend Valor before 4.2 if the conversion would take you over the 4000-point Justice cap and you have no need for the gold.

I was very disappointed when I reached 80 and 85, because when I reached 70, I worked hard to make sure I had enough honor points to get 70 pvp gear. It was fun as hell. I could hold my own against 74's when I was 70 because of my planning for it in the 65-69 bracket. I was basically rewarded in pwnage for spending time planning my gear for the next big bracket. When I reached 80 and 85 and saw the standard of the gear, it was like all my hard work was for nothing, as it pretty much sucked. As far as I can tell you get more bang for your honor-bucks now ^^ (and justice-bucks) :Þ

makes sense to me, and don't wine. If you go over the cap you get gold instead, and otherwise you can still get your T11 to gear some up for firelands and get your T12 set. Can't see how to spend your justice points in an otherway. Maybe there is a positive side to this. If the T11 price was lowered in the process you can get 2 pieces at once.
