WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria Addons and Tools
Today we're having a look at a few useful addons and tools for WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria.


Addon: Narcissus
Narcissus has been updated with a new Gem Manager, which can be opened by clicking on the hourglass widget on the character UI. This feature lets players easily change their meta, cogwheel, tinker, and prismatic gems through simple clicks on the gems.

Note: If the hourglass widget doesn't show up, then enable Paper Doll Widget in Settings > Extensions.



Addon: ZamestoTV: Remix - Mists of Pandaria
ZamestoTV has created a plugin for HandyNotes that adds the locations of Pandaria Rares and Treasures to the map.



Addon: Easy Scrap
Easy Scrap can be used to queue gear for scrapping in WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria, even though the addon hasn't been updated in a while. However, be careful to avoid clicking on "Queue All," as this option will queue all your unequipped Prismatic Gems.



WeakAuras: Auto Open Cache
Fielmacrits has created a simple weakaura that automatically opens all versions of Bronze Cache and Cache of Infinite Treasure.



Spreadsheet: Mists of Pandaria Remix Checklist
Reddit user Kalsith has created a spreadsheet to track all the collectibles available from vendors in WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria, as well as the new Achievement Rewards from the event.

To get your own list simply open up the spreadsheet and click on File > Make a copy.



Website: Simple Armory
Simple Armory has been updated with the new mounts from WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria! For the duration of the event, the time-limited mounts will be shown at the top of the page so players can easily track their collection.

WoW Hotfixes - May 20, 2024

  • Shirts and tabards can now be purchased from Larah Treebender at any Infinite Bazaar, Mei Steadypaw outside the Shrine of Two Moons and the Shrine of Seven Stars, and Hanchoon Yi at Paw'don Village, Honeydew Village, Shrine of Two Moons, and Shrine of Seven Stars.
  • Fixed a bug preventing Timerunners with a legendary Infinite Cloak of Potential from accessing Ordon Sanctuary as intended.
  • Fixed an issue with the spawning of Voress'thalik which prevented the completion of "Devastation Below".
  • Fixed an issue preventing players from learning Amber Pterrordax.
  • Fixed a bug causing Gulp Frogs to unintentionally drop Lesser Charms of Good Fortune.
  • Enemy power scaling, particularly in group content, has been adjusted to be less aggressive. This is particularly applicable in the player level 40 - 70 range, before players have been able to power up their cloak, upgrade their gems, and increase their item level.
  • Gear drop-rates have been improved from world rares, rare elites, and quests. This will help players who have had their item levels fall behind as leveling speed increases, especially at higher levels when cloak bonus experience is powered up.
    • Developers’ notes: This will also increase player Bronze and appearance acquisition by increasing the number of items to place into the Unraveling Sands for additional Bronze.
  • The first-time bonus for queueing each LFR wing will grant a Thread of Experience in addition to the existing Lesser Bronze Cache.
    • Developers’ notes: This should improve LFR as a viable choice for leveling main characters and alts, without players feeling like they need to grind the same LFR wing repeatedly.
  • We have added bonus experience to each boss in normal dungeons and scenarios so they are a viable alternative to questing. Bonus experience has also been adding to the last boss of Heroic Scenarios. Heroic dungeon bosses will continue to drop bonus experience.
  • We’ve increased the number of prismatic gems dropped from bosses in normal and heroic scenarios and dungeons.
    • Developers’ notes: The increased stamina offered by Legendary Prismatic gems boosts player survivability considerably.
  • We have increased the Bronze granted from all qualities of Bronze Caches by 25%.
    • Developers’ notes: These caches are available from a wide variety of sources, both solo and group. This includes the Minor Bronze Cache, Lesser Bronze Cache, Bronze Cache, and Greater Bronze Cache.
  • Fixed an issue where Sha-Skin Vestment was marked as Cosmetic instead of Cloth armor.

Cataclysm Classic

  • Players may skip directly to the beginning of Vashj'ir using a portal in their respective cities.
    • “Vashj'ir: Call of Duty” will remain available to players who skipped directly to “Sea Legs”.
  • Hunter
    • Ancient Hysteria from Hunter Core Hound pets has been renamed Primal Rage. The debuff it causes has been renamed from Insanity to Fatigued.
    • Fixed a bug preventing pets from displaying in the Stable as intended.
  • Mage
    • When Combustion gains damage from Ignite, that Ignite damage will not get increased a second time from Fire Mage Mastery Flashburn. It was already increased once by Flashburn when first applied.

Warcraft Short Story: "The Calling"

But while Anduin may be able to hide his identity, he cannot escape who he is or the stuff he is made from.

Wind caressed the newcomer’s bearded face as he permitted his eyes, so hungry for green openness and soft lands, to feast.

Stormsong Valley was the ancient home of the tidesages, mages whose mastery of water and wind had protected ships and sailors for generations. Yet the beauty of this little hamlet near the sparkling sea was not that of majestic monuments to powerful magic. Here, it was obvious one was in the breadbox of Kul Tiras, where a salt-spray wind whispered over barley and wheat and the only magic was that of water and windmills, creaking from morn till night, transmuting elements to energy in service of the feeding and care of ordinary folk.

The pleasant sound of the mills sang a promise of new beginnings.

And the crash of the waves below, near the cave where his belongings lay bundled and buried, spoke of an ending.

Anduin Wrynn’s recent wandering had not taken him to peaceful places. He understood that he was trying to scour himself, to purge his mind and soul, to burn away his sins in places where the landscape reflected his own suffering.

My friends . . . the ones I almost killed. They believe my hands are clean. But they don’t feel clean.

Years after that confession, they still didn’t.
