Update - The staff isn't final (and Lylirra is the most awesome Community Manager on earth for pointing out that we have no way to datamine it for the moment)

We did, however, hint at what the proc will be in our 4.2 preview: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2685003

The great staff duplicates destructive magics, and also bestows upon its wielder the ability to transform into a member of the Blue Dragonflight.

Also, please keep in mind that some items on the PTR are still considered "works-in-progress," so certain aspects of their design -- including stats, on-use abilities, and appearance -- may change before the next patch goes live. :)

Oh! And just to clarify (since I saw this asked in another thread), Dragonwrath will not be BoE.

Patch 4.2 - PTR Build 14040
A new PTR build will be deployed on test realms today.



Tier 12 - Druid Model Preview
The Druid Tier 12 files are partially in this patch and I had enough to do a small preview.


  • The gloves are slightly bugged and will look a little weird.
  • The shoulders aren't in the game files yet.

    I guess this is the punishment for druids having the sexiest Tier 11... that helm, so hideous!

    My take:

    AHAHAHAHAHA druid tier looks sooo dumb. hopefully the shoulders will help a little bit but that helm is awful

    The druid T12 looks like shit lmao... Poor druids : (.

    I wonder if the helm is just the mask thing or if it includes all the top part we see in the picture.

    Theoretically wouldn't the obsidian spaulders fit the tier model ? how can i see them?

    I think it's pretty funny druids complained about losing permanent t ree form, so when they're given tier that looks like a tree they still complain. I rather like the druid tier.

    Boub, is it possible to put some sort of disclaimer on the first page that says "It's the PTR, this isn't final, the staff will most likely have a proc"?

    I know that it's SELF EXPLANATORY since it's the farkin' PTR, but some people just DON'T get it.

    I'm getting really tired of the repeated QQ it doesn't have a proc what a piece of garbage.

    Druid teir... So. Much. AWESOME!
  1. orderschvank's Avatar
    people stfu about no proc

    I'm dissapointed in the staff. Stats are nice, but every other legendary has had some awesome extra effect, getting cooler as wow progressed, and now nothing.

    sigh.... -.- druids get a sweet teir and rogues looks god awful... why is it we need to looking like morons 24/7...
