Human: An Urgent Matter
The Defias Brotherhood is up to their thieving ways once more and have stolen a dangerous and powerful artifact from Stormwind Keep! You’ll undertake the quest, “An Urgent Matter” from Master Matthias Shaw where you’ll aid him and an unlikely ally to uncover a mystery deeply rooted in Stormwind’s shadowy past and stop the forces that march on Northshire… and threaten Stormwind itself.

This new quest is available for players level 50 and up to undertake and gain several variations of the new human Heritage Armor to add to their collection.



Orc: A People in Need of Healing
Help Eitrigg bring back the Kosh’harg festival from old Draenor and prove yourself a true champion of your people. Orcs who undertake the quest “A People in Need of Healing” will need to earn the Blessing of the Clan, the Blessing of the Land, and the Blessing of the Ancestors to complete the om’gora or “rite of honor” before the assembled clans and many familiar faces.

This new quest is available for players level 50 and up to undertake and gain several variations of the new orc Heritage Armor to add to their collection.



Begin your journey by speaking to Master Matthias Shaw in Stormwind or Eitrigg in Orgrimmar with the release of the 10.0.7 content update.

    You can tell their good artists have left the building.

    I'm soooo tired of Shaw tbh. It's like he's the only spy in SI:7.

    I was hoping the giganto-helmet looked that way because they previewed it on a human female, but...oh nooo

    I mean he is in charge of it.

    Anyway I like the variations for the human, though not a fan of the red. Still nice.

    These mogs are horrendous.

    Human heritage armor is just sad to look at. You'd expect some super awesome alliance / stormwind armor ... but you get level 5 stormwind pleb leveling armor.

    Good thing you don’t play the game then.

    Oddly specific criticism of the story/lore direction.

    This illustrates a reason why they should've done all of the races at once, and then go back and add stuff later. They're including multiple variations. Are they going to go back and add variations to the other heritage armors that already exist? Or are they only doing this right now because these are humans and orcs, which is the basis of Warcraft?

    Many of the armor sets do have variations, color wise at least, already. There's several color variants of the Lightforged armor set, for example, or the Mechagnomes.

    Its more that they just only used one, for whatever reason.

    Oh nice, so the Defias Brotherhood are still vile terrorists. They have already been completely defeated and humiliated twice, maybe third time's the charm and they'll give up their evil ways (which always end in utter failure) after this?

    Where are the iconic Horde-themed spiked pauldrons?

    Ok who's the joker in Blizzard who okayed this helm. Those humans look like they borrowed their armor from an older brother. Maybe it's a callback to RTS games where humans always had weirdly large heads and helmets to make them more distinguishable.

    Glad they waited to release the ugly shit until after I stopped playing.

    While the plume just moves with it and ignoring physics.

    Good stuff.

    Fanboying pretty hard, at least have some meat with the potatoes.

    Plate human looks ok. Others look like shit. Orc gear looks good.
