Azeroth Choppers
Blizzard has revealed all the details of how to get your hands on the prize from Azeroth Choppers: the free Horde chopper! It's pretty straightforward - anyone who logs into the game between now and September 30th will automatically have their account flagged to receive the Horde chopper upon the release of the upcoming Warlords of Draenor expansion. You can check out the full Blizzard post below:
Blizzard
The Horde chopper is on its way, and you need to log in now to claim it!
Your votes for Azeroth Choppers were counted, and one faction’s war cry roared loudest: the Horde bike will now be turned into a mount in World of Warcraft! Anyone who logs in to the game between now and September 30, 2014 will automatically have their account flagged to receive the Horde chopper upon the release of the upcoming Warlords of Draenor expansion. Everyone can (and should!) claim their chopper by logging in now, but as a reminder, only your Horde characters will be able to mount up and take it for a ride.
Next Beta Build Will Wipe Characters
Blizzard has confirmed that the next Beta build will wipe all characters. So every character on the Beta will be gone, and you'll need to start again from scratch.
Blizzard
In preparation for the next beta build that is planned to go live July 25, we will be doing a character wipe on the beta realms. Once the new build is live, you will also notice that the realms have been renamed, and that you will be able to create level 100 PvP and PvE characters. For more information about the new realm names, check out the thread Lore recently posted here.
EDIT: Apologies for any confusion; characters are being wiped from the beta realms today.

Patch 5.4.8 Hotfixes for July 22
Blizzard
July 22
Creatures
Kurtok the Slayer's health has been reduced to be slightly less menacing to the denizens of Northshire.
As ever, here's our summary of the changes broken down class by class. Many classes have no specified changes in these notes, remember these do not necessarily tie in with the current build and datamining thereof.
A list of which Diminishing Returns category each crowd-control ability belongs to can be found in the forum thread titled:
Diminishing Returns in Warlords of Draenor
.
Thick Hide has been removed and its effects have been incorporated into Bear Form
for Guardian Druids
Bear Form now increases armor by 600%
330%
for all Druid specializations, and no longer increases Haste and Critical Strike from items by 50%, but instead causes Haste to reduce the global cooldown
For Guardian Druids, Bear Form now also reduces magical damage taken by 25%,
reduces physical damage taken by 12%
, reduces chance to be critically hit by 6%, and reduces chance for attacks to be parried by 3%.
Tiger’s Fury is now usable during Berserk.
The damage of damage-over-time effects changes dynamically as Eclipse changes.
Moonfire now has a base duration of 20 seconds (up from 14 seconds), but is no longer extended by Starfire and Starsurge critical strikes. Upon reaching 100 Lunar Energy, the next Moonfire deals 100% additional initial damage.
Sunfire now has a base duration of 24
20
seconds (up from 14 seconds), but is no longer extended by Wrath and Starsurge critical strikes.
Upon reaching 100 Solar Energy, the next Sunfire deals 100% additional initial damage.
Omen of Clarity (Restoration) can now only be triggered by the most recently applied Lifebloom, and now causes the next Regrowth to be free.
Conversion no longer has an initial tick, and now costs 15 Runic Power/second for Blood, 10
20
Runic Power/second for Frost, and 20
10
Runic Power/second for Unholy.
Aspect of the Fox is a new ability for all Hunters.
Aspect of the Fox: Party and raid members within 40 yards take on the aspects of a fox, allowing them to move while casting all spells for 6 seconds. Only one Aspect can be active at a time. 3 minute cooldown.
Ice Ward was changed to make it more competitive with the rest of its talent row.
Ice Ward now causes the next 3 attackers (up from 1) to trigger a Frost Nova.
Mirror Image is now a level-90 Talent, replacing Invocation. Mirror Images now inherit 100%
50%
of the Mage’s Spell Power (up from 5%), last 40 seconds (up from 30 seconds), and have a 2 minutes cooldown (down from 3 minutes).
No Changes listed
Selfless Healer no longer causes Bastion of Glory to apply to Flash Heal.
Holy Wrath’s damage and cooldown were increased, and Sanctified Wrath changed to buff it further, in order to give Protection Paladins more burst threat and damage, while retaining its core damage-splitting identity.
Holy Wrath’s damage has been increased by 100%, and its cooldown increased to 15 seconds (up from 9 seconds).
Sanctified Wrath for Protection Paladins has been redesigned.
Sanctified Wrath (Protection) now increases the damage of Holy Wrath by 100% and causes it to generate 1 Holy Power.
No Changes listed
No Changes listed
No Changes listed
We were unsatisfied with Grimoire of Sacrifice for Demonology. Fundamentally, it did not fit Demonology’s theme to sacrifice their pet, full time. We had toyed with ideas where it acted as a temporary cooldown for Demonology, but have decided to replace it with a new talent, which is more theme-appropriate, and fits well against the competition in that talent row.
Grimoire of Sacrifice is no longer available to Demonology Warlocks and has a new talent, Grimoire of Synergy in its place.
Grimoire of Synergy: When the Warlock or their demon deals damage, there is a chance to trigger Demonic Synergy, granting the other one 15% increased damage for 15 seconds.
Thunder Clap now costs 15 30 Rage, and also reduces the movement speed of nearby enemies by 50% for 6 sec.
In order to make sure that you’re able to spend all of your resources within each Colossus Smash window, we added an extension to it onto Raging Blow.
Raging Blow now extends the duration of Colossus Smash by 2 seconds, and has a spell alert on the left and right slots.
Updated Character Models Preview: Female Draenei and Female Undead
Updated character models are a much-anticipated feature in Warlords of Draenor. Our
Warlords of Draenor Modelviewer
now shows new Draenei and Undead female, so we put together some previews! We've got videos of the new character model emotes as well as screenshots of the updated facial features on the Beta.
Do note that these models are not final or completed - they are in-progress versions which will be subject to further iteration.
You can expand these videos by clicking the player resize in the bottom right, or

Warlords Legendary Quests, Updated Dungeon Journal, Wowhead Rep Now Grants Patron
Warlords of Draenor Legendary Quests
The latest round of datamining has revealed two Legendary quests.
Appel de l’archimage
and
Flèches du Traître
. Notable points about these quests include:
Unlike all the Mists of Pandaria ones, these only require level 98, which implies that it's possible to get started on the quest prior to max level. Of course, this is subject to change.
The first quest,
Appel de l’archimage
also appears to feature an elemental in your garrison, which would make sense in conjunction with the ability to begin them before you reach level 100.
The second quest,
Flèches du Traître
requires looting a ring,
Bague en solium massif
, from High Sage Viryx, the final boss of the Skyreach dungeon. This at least implies there will be other group content required to complete the quest.
There are also several datamined items with the Legendary quality, which at least suggests they may be linked to the Legendary quest chain. Their item levels go from 630 to 665 to 695, and several of them have stack sizes, which could mean the devs expect players to have more than one of them in their bags. Of course, this could change!
The complete list of Legendary items we've datamined so far
can be found with our
database filters
.
New Items and Quests Added
We're always working to extract new items from builds, and we've found a few new ones this morning, along with the Legendary quests mentioned above, and a lot more new quests! You can
see all the new data here
.
High Wowhead Reputation now grants free Patron status!
Here on Wowhead you can generate reputation. The main way to generate it is to get your comments upvotes. Good comments get more upvotes, and the more upvotes you get, the higher your reputation becomes! So, reputation is a rough measure of how much you contributed to the community.
Warlords of Draenor Beta: Talador Rares and Garrison Outposts
Garrison Buildings
More buildings are now available on the beta to add to your Garrison! Blueprint vendors now sell all of the level 1 buildings and questing in other zones also unlocks special Garrison Outposts.
The buildings you choose for your outpost will determine what blueprints you get for your Garrison, shape your questing experience, and provide different followers. The buildings you choose for your Outpost in each zone will also grant you unique buffs in that particular zone.
Gorgrond
Your Gorgrond outpost will make you eventually choose between building a
Scierie Niveau 1
and
Sanctum du Gladiateur Niveau 1
for your Garrison.
If you choose the
Scierie Niveau 1
, you will get a shredder letting you access otherwise blocked areas for treasure. If you choose the
Sanctum du Gladiateur Niveau 1
and complete the full questline, you can free up to five gladiators with distinct buffs to aid you.
The Shredder also automatically appears when there was a clump of tangled vines. The concealed treasures weren't anything interesting yet, but this zone is not fully developed.
After building the Lumber Mill at your Garrison,
Justin Sirebûche
has several quests.
Une vocation de bûcheron
teaches you
Abattage
, which lets you chop down trees for Garrison Resources.

Shadowmoon Valley - Beasts of the Savage Lands
Blizzard has released another of their blogs detailing the mobs and NPCs in Shadowmoon Valley:
<p>The lush <strong>Shadowmoon Valley</strong> appears peaceful and idyllic, lulling many would-be adventurers into a false sense of security as they explore its rolling hills and violet forests. But countless hidden perils lie waiting behind the tranquil façade, and only those well-armed with knowledge can hope to survive. What dangers lurk in the shadows?</p>
<p></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a class="lightbox" href="
https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/QPI47IV2LHCA1405118842326.jpg"><img
alt="Riverbeast" src="
https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/10L6VXS01GVM1405118842253.jpg"
style="width: 500px; height: 250px;" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Riverbeasts</strong></p>
<p>Adventurers are often misled by the seemingly docile <strong>riverbeasts</strong>. Though slow to anger, once disturbed, a charging riverbeast is a ferocious sight: 4,000 pounds of fat and muscle storming toward its target like a runaway tram. Roaming draenei rangari have long been astounded by how much damage a rampaging riverbeast can take before it’s brought down, and draenei children are taught to keep a wide berth of shallow waters. Riverbeasts are characterized by their rock-like skin, likely developed during the early days of Draenor’s prehistory, when creatures of stone dueled for supremacy against the chaotic flora. Those looking to take a riverbeast as a trophy should take note of their durable armored flesh and tendency to charge unexpectedly. </p>

The Human Spirit now increases Versatility, scaling with character level.
Line removed: To tie those together, Blood's Mastery is being changed to affect both the size of the Blood Shield absorb, and the new Rune Shield absorb.
Rune Tap has been redesigned. It now reduces all damage taken by 50% for 3 seconds. It also now has 2 charges, with a 40-second recharge time.
Will of the Necropolis has been redesigned. It now automatically triggers an immediate, free Rune Tap when you take damage that reduces you below 30% health. This effect cannot occur more often than once every 45 seconds.
Conversion was changed to cost different amounts by specialization, instead of reducing Runic Power generation differently by specialization. This way, Runic Power beyond what you spend on Conversion is not penalized.
Conversion no longer has an initial tick, and now costs 15 Runic Power/second for Blood, 20 Runic Power/sec for Frost, and 10 Runic Power/second for Unholy.
Survivalist increases the Hunter's chance to Multistrike by 10%.
Chimera Shot has been renamed Chimaera Shot. It is now a two-headed shot that hits two targets, and deals Frost or Nature damage. It no longer heals the Hunter.
Ignite now deals the same total damage with a 1 second period (down from 2 seconds). Base duration changed to 5 seconds so that duration when refreshed remains 6 seconds.

Warlords of Draenor Official Patch Notes for July 11
The official Warlords of Draenor Patch Notes have been updated. You can see the full notes below, and our usual TL;DR summary of the changes!
Do bear in mind that the patch notes aren't perfect, we're trying our best to clarify confusing areas on Twitter. There are also several red-text (i.e. updated) abilities that we know have already had these changes in previous notes, but they are included for completeness in the TL;DR.
Our
Warlords of Draenor Class Previews
have also been updated with the latest information from datamining and patch notes!
Also be sure to check out the
most recent datamining, including a Core Hound mount
, and enter our
Warlords of Draenor Beta Key Giveaway
.
All specializations now receive a 5% bonus to specific secondary stat bonuses received from all sources. This bonus is granted through new passive abilities or additional effects added to existing passive abilities.
Barkskin is now available to Balance, Guardian, and Restoration Druids, and no longer provides pushback protection, but its base cooldown has been reduced to 30 seconds.
Entangling roots, Hurricane, Moonfire and Rejuv are no longer spec-specific
Revive’s mana cost has been reduced by 87%.
Incarnation: Chosen of Elune now increases spell damage by 15% while active (was a 25% increase to Arcane and Nature damage, but only while Eclipse is active).

Bear Hug has been removed.
Hibernate has been removed.
Maim is now available only to Feral Druids.

Each time it deals damage, the Hunter receives 3 Focus; this effect cannot occur more than once every 3 seconds.
Mastery: Wild Quiver has been removed. It is very similar to Multistrike, so Marks has a new Mastery
Sniper Training is a new Mastery for Marksmanship Hunters, replacing Wild Quiver.
Sniper Training activates when the Hunter stands still for 3 seconds, giving them the Sniper Training effect for 6 seconds, increasing damage, shot range, and critical strike damage by 4% (increased by Mastery).
The Devs changed how Lock and Load is triggered to increase the value of Multistrike, provide gameplay depth and the ability to pool damage more.
Black Arrow now deals 60% more damage, inflicts Shadow damage every 3 seconds (up from every 2 seconds), has a duration of 18 seconds (down from 20 seconds), and triggers Lock and Load on Multistrike hits.
Explosive Shot now costs 15 Focus (down from 25 Focus).
Lock and Load's effects have been incorporated into Black Arrow and has been redesigned.
Lock and Load now causes the next Explosive Shot to not trigger its cooldown, but no longer causes it to be free or reset the ability's current cooldown. This effect can stack up to 5 times.
Concussive Barrage has been removed.
Scare Beast has been removed.
Widow Venom has been removed.
Ice Floes no longer has a restriction on base cast or channel times for spells (formerly only worked on spells with a base cast or channel time of less than 4 seconds).
Ice Lance’s base damage has been increased by 100%, but its damage multiplier against frozen targets has been reduced by 50%.
The Brain Freeze effect now increases Frostfire Bolt's damage by 25%, and can now stack up to 2 times
instead of making Frostfire Bolt instant
. It also no longer triggers from the Bomb Talents, and instead has a 10% chance to trigger from Frostbolt casts. Each Multistrike of Frostbolt increases that cast's chance by an additional 45%. (Total of 100% on double-Multistrikes). This may mean FFB is now instant with Brain Freeze
Cone of Cold’s cooldown has been increased to 12 seconds (up from 10 seconds).
Deep Freeze is now available only to Frost Mages.
Deep Freeze can now be broken by damage (same amount as Frost Nova).
Dragon’s Breath now replaces Cone of Cold for Fire Mages and the disoriented effect now shares Diminishing Returns with all other Mesmerize effects.
Frost Nova’s cooldown has been increased to 30 seconds (up from 25 seconds).
Stance of the Sturdy Ox now replaces Stance of the Fierce Tiger for Brewmaster Monks.
Touch of Death and Transendence have been given back to Mistweavers
Resuscitate’s mana cost has been reduced by 80%.
Spinning Crane Kick now always generates 1 Chi, and no longer reduces movement speed.
Zen Sphere no longer has a target limit.
Stance of the Wise Serpent no longer causes haste to reduce GCDs.
Focus and Harmony is a new passive ability for Mistweaver Monks, causing Haste to reduce the global cooldown, and causes Attack Power to be equal to 100% of Spell Power.
Stance of the Wise Serpent no longer provides this Spell Power to Attack Power conversion.
Jade Mist is a new passive ability for Mistweaver Monks, causing them to gain 5% more of the Multistrike stat from all sources, and also causes Renewing Mist and Rising Sun Kick to have a chance equal to Multistrike chance to not go on cooldown when used. This effect cannot trigger on the next Renewing Mist or Rising Sun Kick.
Adaptation has been removed.
Redemption’s mana cost has been reduced by 95%.
Spirit Shell is now a level-75 talent, replacing Divine Insight for Discipline Priests.
Divine Providence is a new passive ability for Holy Priests.
