This Week
All week, open your map (default hotkey: m) and then select any of the five main Broken Isles zones to consider the World Quests available to you. Hover your mouse over a World Quest on the map to see what tasks are needed complete it, the rewards you’ll receive, and the time remaining that the quest is available to you.
If you’ve been looking to impress some emissaries, this is the week to do it!

Legendary Item Bad Luck Protection
Yes, bad luck protection does exist.
When it comes to most targettable loot from a boss (gear/mounts/pets etc.) those drops have a fixed drop chance. If "Boots of Unending Awesomeness" have a 33% chance of dropping, that chance will always be 33% regardless of how many loot-eligible times you kill that boss.
Legendaries on the other hand, if you are running Legendary-eligible content and don't get a Legendary, then your chance of getting one with increase over time. The more content you do without getting a Legendary, the higher your chance will become.
Let's say you have 3-sided die. If you roll the number 3, you get the item.
In the case of the "Boots of Unending Awesomeness," you could roll the die 20 times and never get a 3. Your chance of getting a 3 on your next roll is still 33%, as all rolls are considered unique and do not take previous rolls into account; the die cares not for the fact that you've yet to roll a 3.*
(*note that this refers to the items that drop directly from the boss and not the system of winning items via bonus loot, which has its own logic.)
In the case of Legendaries, you could roll the die 20 times and never get a 3. However, with bad-luck protection, the die will become more and more weighted toward giving you a 3. Due to the die becoming more weighted, the chance of getting a 3 on your next roll will be higher than without bad luck protection. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
Fan Art - Giraffe Mount
Thomas Karlsson shared his art of a Giraffe Mount.
Its not confirmed that soultakers drop the frost DK HAA, it is assumed they do. We should see reports of it popping up soon if they do. Lets hope they do! The wait has been long enough!

I posted my first comment about it like 3 minutes after having the appearance drop :P
Has Blizzard ever stated that bad luck protection exists for subsequent legendary drops? Say you get a legendary, and the base drop rate goes back to the original 1% (or whatever it is). Will that continue to increase as you do legendary-eligible content as it would for your 1st legendary?
Sad to say, but you need to be 110 to get the artifact skins. The 100% chance to drop from blizz is a bit misleading. I guess if you want the swords you have a week to hit 110 on that DK.
