To unlock the exclusive S45 Honor Pass skins for Arthur and Angela in Honor of Kings, upgrade to the premium pass track and gain Pass Experience (EXP) by completing daily, weekly, and event match objectives before the seasonal window ends.
The S45 Honor Pass cycle highlights cosmetics for two core heroes: Clash Lane tank Arthur and Mid Lane mage Angela. While standard rewards are available on the free progression track, these character skins require active pass tier advancement on the premium track.
How to Earn S45 Honor Pass EXP
Unlocking higher pass tiers requires earning Pass EXP through consistent gameplay. Align your daily sessions with active quest requirements to ensure steady level progression throughout the season.
- Daily Checklists: Complete basic activity objectives during regular matches to maintain a consistent daily stream of EXP.
- Weekly Milestone Missions: Tackle targeted weekly tasks at the start of each reset. These offer larger EXP rewards than daily tasks but require specific match actions or conditions.
- Limited-Time Events: Participate in seasonal bonus events whenever available to claim extra Pass EXP and accelerate progression without extra match grinding.
EXP Source Comparison
| Task Type | Objective Scope | EXP Yield Focus | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Quests | Regular play and quick match completions | Steady daily accumulation | Complete daily to avoid end-of-season tier deficits. |
| Weekly Missions | Role-specific tasks or structural accomplishments | High bulk EXP boosts | Plan match roles around active weekly requirements. |
| Special Events | Seasonal limited-time modes and event menus | Timed bonus progression | Prioritize during active promotional windows. |
Deciding to Purchase the Premium Pass
Upgrading to the premium pass track makes financial sense primarily if you regularly play Arthur or Angela, or if you plan to play frequently enough to finish the tier track.
- Check Hero Usage: If you frequently play Arthur in the Clash Lane or Angela in the Mid Lane, unlocking these cosmetics through pass progression is generally more economical than buying individual store cosmetics.
- Verify Play Time: Progress is tied to seasonal uptime. If you cannot log in regularly to finish missions, you risk missing the higher-tier skin milestones.
- Review Exclusivity: Honor Pass skins are tied to their specific season. Unclaimed skins become unavailable once the pass expires unless re-introduced in subsequent legacy rotations.
If you fall behind near the end of the season, check the in-game event or shop menus for tier catch-up options to close the remaining gap before the S45 cycle closes.
