Patch 4.2 on PTRs - Build 14002
Patch 4.2 is upon us! See the list of changes below.

Important - As usual with datamined changes, be very careful. Especially on a first build of a PTR where most of our internal tools explode because of changes to the game files.

[_Fire_]

Can't wait!!!

[Fcdwn777]

Wait...4.2 is actually already on the PTR? Or is this just updated notes for when it goes on the PTR?

[Swisted]

oh wow i know this is datamined but if the blind change happens.. holy shit rogues.

[Kärmä]

More fishing and cooking dailies? Yay, and hopefully one of the firehawks is for the daily zone and the mount reward they talked about.

[fangless]

lol @ tank abilities no longer causing threat?

o_O

[FireBorne]

The text is green so that means it is not official...yet. Official changes are always in blue.

[The Glitch]

More Mounts! More Pets! Whee! Wonder which colour is which.. well green is self explanatory, corrupted the purple version? Pureblood the original fire/yellow/orange one?

[fangless]

oh wow i know this is datamined but if the blind change happens.. holy shit rogues.

This change was already mentioned by Bliz, it'll be on PVE targets only.

[Swisted]

This change was already mentioned by Bliz, it'll be on PVE targets only.

[Seejay]

Ohh mounts for veteran of the alliance/horde? seems Blizz really wants to get people doing RBGs more.

A good idea though

[Strafer]

A Horde War Wolf, what's different this time.

[Leatbabiez]

LOL please don't be true! My threat is just getting worse and worse

[juelz]

"Shield Slam no longer causes a high amount of threat."

[Pumps]

[blackangel209]

oh alright, thank god lmao
