Posted by Joakim "Rythian" Hellstrand 7 months ago

The latest version of the Public Test Realm client has hit, and it reveals some interesting things, among them the itemlevel range on Raid Finder items and the model of a new Chromatic Dragon mount.

New PTR Patch

Fangs of the Father: Legendary Proc
Shadows of the Destroyer: Increases your Agility by 17, stacking up to 50 times. Once you have acquired 30 stacks of Shadows of the Destoyer, each stack gained grants an increasing chance to trigger Fury of the Destroyer and cancel all stacks of Shadows of the Destroyer. Fury of the Destroyer immediately grants 5 combo points and causes your finishing moves to grant 5 combo points. Lasts 6 sec.

We've known for a while that the weapon will have two earlier stages like the previous legendary did, but now there's some more information on them. Both of them also have procs:

Maw of Oblivion. Nightmare: Increases your Agility by 5, stacking up to 50 times.
Jaws of Retribution. Suffering: Increases your Agility by 2, stacking up to 50 times.

Latest PTR Additions
There are tons of new items (over 500) in our latest data push on our PTR site. Here's some of the highlights:

Winterfall Firewater makes its return with Darkmoon Firewater. There's also Pouch o' Tokens and Sack o' Tokens related to the Darkmoon Faire.
Crystalline Geode, Perfect Geode, and Elementium-Coated Geode--indicates Blizzard is still going through with geodes for epic gems.
Looks like Blizzard is having a lot of fun with weapon design and doing what players have wanted for a while--cool, unique procs. Some of them are now showing up in this PTR patch: Slowing the Sands and Summon Tentacle of the Old Ones, for example.
Lots of new t13 raid epics in this PTR patch. It looks like the Raid Finder epics will be mostly ilvl 384 with special loot (that also contains flavor text) at ilvl 390. Examples: Experimental Specimen Slicer and Backbreaker Spaulders.
New mounts: Experiment 12-B and Heart of the Aspects (most likely the reward for completing Tier 13 meta achievements or the rare Deathwing mount drop).
New companion pet, previewed a few weeks ago and most likely a guild reward for finishing the t13 legendary: Soul of the Aspects.

There's a lot more information to be found at the source, so click the link below, and take a look at everything, including the Death Knight's tier 13 - which will be getting a proper news post of its own once Blizzard releases its own official update with input from the artists and a look back at the other sets.

There already is a guild finder. duh..

Raid finder gives half a tier lower than normal raids meaning that normal raiders will get better rewards. so whats the problem?
