New Vol'jin Scenario, 5.1 PTR Patch Notes Updated
The Horde is getting some new scenarios in 5.1--today we're taking a look at the new Vol'jin one,
Une dague dans la nuit
. We previewed
two new Alliance scenarios
this past weekend, so if you're team Varian, check them out!
Patch 5.1 PTR notes were also just updated--we've included the new parts below. Of note:
Brawler's Guild invitations can now drop from select Horde and Alliance NPCs.
Esprit de l'harmonie
can now be purchased for 600
at the Conquest Quartermaster.
Level 90 players can now queue for
Joug-d’Hiver
and
Tol Barad
via the PvP tab to battle one another in these epic conflicts.
Une dague dans la nuit
Screenshots
Vol'jin is ordered by the Horde to investigate the origins of the Saurok. He's not too happy to discover that the Mogu created them from dark magic, but Garrosh's loyal guards are thrilled by this discovery--they want to create an army of corrupted warriors, similar to the Mogu.

Raid Preview: Terrace of Endless Spring
A small PTR patch hit servers early this morning, and while we thought at first that the Darkmoon Faire trinkets were nerfed, it turns out that they are
unchanged
(confirmed by
Daxxarri
)--the mechanisms behind displaying the procs were simply changed to help with scaling mechanics in 5.1. (It's a bit complicated, but most trinkets default display a base ilvl 463 proc you'd get in a Challenge Mode, and are then scaled accordingly on tooltips for higher ilvl items. Full details in
my comment
.)
Daxxarri
No! Bad! Stop pointing to data-mined content as fact. The change that got picked up was actually an adjustment to Darkmoon Card trinkets for Challenge Mode stat scaling.
The other notable addition was
Un test de vaillance
, requiring players working on the legendary chain to earn 6000 Valor Points. We've got the full list of spell changes underneath the cut.

Blizzard Removes Brawler's Guild Realm First, More Heroic Vizier Hotfixes
The
Brawler's Guild
, a new feature in 5.1 that lets players test their mettle in soloing challenging bosses, has been at the center of a lot of debate recently for two reasons: participating in this content requires buying an invite from the BMAH or getting an invite from a friend, and there was a Realm First Feat of Strength tied to defeating all the bosses.
Blizzard clarified some things about the Brawler's Guild today--the invite system is here to stay, but the Realm First has been removed.

Blizzard Dev Notes, Patch 5.0.5 Hotfixes
Earlier this week, the Blizzard Community Team shared notes from weekly developer meetings to fansites! While this is a partial transcript as not all questions and answers can be shared with the public, there's a ton of useful information covering a wide breadth of topics and it's a neat to see what's discussed at dev meetings.

The
PTR patch notes
created some controversy yesterday when it was revealed that invitations to the Brawler's Guild would be quite exclusive--either via existing members or by purchasing one on the Black Market Auction House with gold.
Edit: Since this was posted, Blizzard has added in an alternative method: having it drop from select Alliance/Horde NPCs.
To recap, the Brawler's Guild is an area for players to demonstrate their skill in soloing challenging bosses, gaining ranks within in the guild as they do so, in a "Fight Club" atmosphere.
There's been a few things added in this PTR patch--invitations, achievements, various NPCs--which we've covered below.
In addition, spectators can no longer influence the outcome of a fight by throwing flowers or rotten fruit at players.

New Scenario: Assault on Zan'vess, Blizzard Analyzes LFR
Today's news covers two aspects of WoW that are designed to be easily accessible for many players: Scenarios and LFR. We have a preview of a new scenario on the PTR, as well as a ton of blue posts discussing players' perceptions behind LFR.
Assault on Zan'vess
Recently, a new scenario was open for testing on the 5.1 PTR,
Assault on Zan'vess
. For everyone complaining that scenarios feel a bit easy, this one should be a welcome challenge. The mobs hit hard, pulling additional groups can be lethal, and coordination is actually required on bosses.
This scenario appears to change based on your faction, as Alliance players start off on their gunship and kill a Horde commander later on.
Stage 1: Join the Assault
Players land on top of their faction's gunship, and are told to join in the assault by getting on one of the gyrocopters.
Stage 2: Defenses of Zan'vess
You're asked to fly over Zan'vess and destroy the sonic shield, which is maintained by several generators around the island. As your character makes loops around the island, you can bomb the control towers as well as shielding yourself from enemy fire. You'll also n
