Flying
If you have earned Draenor Pathfinder, you will finally be able to fly in Draenor! Don't forget to take your Soaring Skyterror out for a spin.
Heavenly Azure Cloud Serpent Mount
A new achievement has been added for collecting 300 mounts, Lord of the Reins. Completing the achievement awards a mount, the Heavenly Azure Cloud Serpent.
Upcoming Mounts and Pets
Keep in mind that the art is going in with this patch, but many of these aren't going to be available for some time.
Legendary Quest Catch-Up
If you or your alts are still behind on the Legendary Quest, Patch 6.2.2 should help. In addition to the existing catch-up mechanics, you can trade Apexis Crystals each week for the legendary collection items.
Level Name Rewards Objective Abrogator Arbitrator
Weekly
Kluk'kluk wants you to bring him 14958 Apexis Crystals. Work Work Stoppage
Weekly
Bring 20000 Apexis Crystals to the Renegade Ironworker.
Mercenary Mode
If your faction has sufficiently long wait times, you can talk to a NPC in Ashran to queue as the opposite faction. When you enter the PvP instance, your race will be changed the one of the other faction. This should help to alleviate the long queue times.

We know the current cost of most items, but haven't had another Timewalking weekend to see what the drop rate is. Wrath of the Lich King Timewalking is this weekend, so we will know soon!
- Mounts - The Reins of the Eclipse Dragonhawk and Bridle of the Ironbound Wraithcharger cost 5,000 Timewarped Badge.
- The Ironbound Wraithcharger model was added to the game in Mists of Pandaria and was originally going to be a shop mount.
- Heirloom Upgrades - You can purchase the heirloom upgrade items for 750 / 1000 badges (Armor) and 900 / 1200 badges (Weapon)
- Armor and Weapons - Timewarped Badge gear is item level 675 and uses the same models as some Burning Crusade gear.
- Reputation Commendations - These BoA items grant 500 Reputation with some of the Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King factions.
- Pets - The Bag of Fishing Treasures can contain several different crocodile pets. You can also obtain this bag by completing the Crocolisks in the City daily quest.
- Cooking - The Barrel of Fish and Crate of Meat can contain some older Cooking recipes.
