    World of Warcraft Remix is a time-limited event which allows players to re-experience the entirety of the Mists of Pandaria expansion at an accelerated rate from level 10 through 70. All loot has been completely overhauled and has powerful new effects allowing players to shape their experience, power up, and power on. Features include:

    • Accelerated Leveling and Content allowing you to take on nearly every quest, scenario, dungeon and raid.
    • Create a new WoW Remix character starting at level 10 to adventure through the event up to level 70.
    • A mountain of loot: Get powerful items from everywhere— quests, chests, creatures, bosses.
    • Customizable items allowing you to power up as far as you can go to take on tougher content.
    • Convert unwanted items into Bronze which can be used to upgrade items or purchase cosmetics.
    • Keep what you collect: Take your collection of transmogs with you into The War Within.

    Read more about the event in our development article.

    CHARACTERS

    • Added heritage armor for the Draenei and Troll races. The heritage armor questlines will not be available for testing on the PTR.
    • Added six new hair colors for Kul Tiran.

    CLASSES

    • HUNTER
      • The hunter pet stable has been updated:
        • The pet preview window is now larger.
        • More information about the pet is displayed, including a list of abilities.
        • Pets can be favorited and added to a separate group at the top of the stable list.
        • The stable list is now searchable and sortable by name, specialization, abilities, and more.
        • Pets can now be renamed directly from the stable without certificate items.
        • Pets can now be released directly from the stable without needing to be summoned.
        • For the Beast Mastery specialization, the pet that is summoned by the Animal Companion talent now has a dedicated slot next to the Active pet list. The tooltip has been updated to reflect this change.

    QUESTS

    • All Dragonflight quests that previously became available with Renown levels are now available to all max-level player-characters, regardless of Renown.
    • SINS OF THE SISTER
      • A night elf has arrived at Bel’ameth to bury the family she lost at Teldrassil. But when her deceased sister is revealed to be a traitor, will the night elves show her sister forgiveness or demand accountability for her sins? Level 70 players can speak with Malfurion Stormrage at the Terrace of the Moon in Bel’ameth to accept the quest “An Uncommon Request” and start this questline.

    USER INTERFACE AND ACCESSIBILITY

    • Several changes have been made to improve the experience of finding Mythic+ groups in Premade Group Finder:
      • A filter button has been added that lets you filter results for:
        • Specific dungeons
        • Your role available
        • None of your class already in group
        • Tank and/or healer already in group
        • Minimum Mythic+ Rating of the leader
        • Difficulty
      • The role icons on each listing now show class colors, so you can see the current group makeup at a glance.
      • The listing tooltip now shows the leader’s info in a more readable format: their Mythic+ Rating, their highest key for the listed dungeon, and their highest key for all dungeons.
      • The listing tooltip now shows info for all members of the group, including their specialization and Mythic+ Rating (implementation pending).
      • The listing tooltip now shows the dungeon/raid name and difficulty.
      • A helptip tutorial has been added to teach players that they can search a key range for precise results (for example, 6-10 or 7-7).
      • Groups that no longer fit your filter criteria are marked with a red background (for example, if you selected “Damage role available” and a listed group filled up on damage dealers).
      • Groups you are hard declined from are automatically marked in red and sorted to the bottom.
      • In the leader applicants pane, the applicant tooltip now shows the applicant’s info in a more readable format: their Mythic+ Rating, their highest key for the listed dungeon, and their highest key for all dungeons.
    • Recipes can now be tracked from the Crafting Orders window.
    • An option has been added to the Auction House filters to show only current expansion items.
    • The location of Dragonriding Races can now be toggled in the Map filter.
    • You can now create or find a group participating in a Scenario by clicking the Group Finder icon on the Scenario objective.
    • The number of helptip tutorials that appear when logging in on a new character has been reduced.
    • Mount tooltips now show the category the mount belongs in: Ground, Aquatic, Flying, or Dragonriding.
    • TRADING POST
      • Mount categories (Ground, Aquatic, Flying, or Dragonriding) will now be shown in the Trading Post details panel.
      • Level requirements for using a mount will now be shown in the Trading Post details panel.

    That WoW Remix: MOP Event sounds interesting. Now that is a event I will participate in.

    Please tell me all these pet stable updates are going to fix the bug on Call of the Wild too, where it isn't summoning pets from your stable like it should.

    I really like those filters for M+. That's a good change

    Premade Groups Filter is/was a necessity to navigate LFG. Hopefully the official incorporation is smooth and lightweight.

    Hopefully overhauling the raid LFG system is next, at the very least something should be done to stop/discourage the clowns who just spam create and abandon groups all day until they get a free carry.
