When you earn points for the gaming arena (honor points?) do you spend the over by the clan manager in junon?

Groups

A new grouping system was created to handle group management within the Game Arena, which allows you to queue for games with players from any location. You can join the queue for a game (or dungeon) as an individual player, or as a group of players. If you join as an individual, you will be joined with another group automatically once a game is ready to start. While queued up for games in a group, you can continue with other gameplay activities (levelling, farming, etc) while in a party - they are independent of each other.

Crystal Defenders (the replacement to Union War) no longer requires you to be in a union to play. Joining as a group will ensure that your group members are in the same game and team as you.
