    Patch 7.1 Live This Week

    Patch 7.1 Live This Week
    Patch 7.1 goes live this week! It brings the Karazhan dungeon, Trial of Valor raid, a continuation of the Suramar story, new pets, mounts, achievements and much more! Keep in mind that Trial of Valor will not be open for another two weeks.



    Karazhan - Mythic Dungeon
    We will Return to Karazhan in Patch 7.1! An updated version of Karazhan with some new encounters has been added as a Mythic dungeon. Don't worry though, the old version of Karazhan is sticking around so you can keep trying for Fiery Warhorse's Reins.


    Quests

    Items


    Karazhan Exterior Updated
    The Legion is invading the area of Deadwind Pass around Karazhan.



    Blood of Sargeras Trader
    Visit Illnea Bloodthorn in Dalaran to trade in your Blood of Sargeras for trade goods and Order Resources.



    PvP Changes
    Patch 7.1 makes several changes to PvP:

    • Honor talents are no longer lost when you Prestige (More)
    • The amount of Artifact Power you will earn from a PvP victory is displayed in the UI
    • You will earn extra Honor and Artifact Power for your first win of the day in all unrated and rated PvP activities
    • Rated and Unrated Battleground wins will reward a piece of gear. Losses have a chance to reward gear based on the score.
    • Skirmish and Arena victories will have an increased chance to drop gear.
    • The item level of PvP gear now more closely mirrors the type of item level progression you see from World Quests
    • Each rated PvP bracket (2v2, 3v3, Rated Battlegrounds) has a weekly quest that rewards items based on your best rating from the previous week.
    • The quests for Arena brackets will require 10 wins, and the quests for the Rated Battleground bracket require three wins.
    • Below 2000, the quests reward Gladiator appearance gear and above 2000 they reward Elite appearance gear.



    Nagrand Arena Visual Update
    Nagrand Arena has received visual updates in this patch! Gameplay should still be the same.



    Quick Join
    Patch 7.1 allows you to join friends that are in the queue for different activities. You select a role, ask to join, and then are in the queue with them!



    Return to Alcaz Isle
    Alcaz Isle has been invaded by Dr. Weavil and the Drudge Gnomes!

    The default UI finally allows you to see more icons when trying to select one for a macro.



    Hidden Belt Transmog

    Reputation Improvements

    First, Court of Stars and The Arcway will now unlock account-wide once each individual dungeon is completed once on an account.

    Second, World Quests will no longer have the "friendly" reputation unlock requirement for secondary/alt characters. Once you hit 110 on an alt, you will immediately receive a quest to speak with Khadgar to receive your Flight Master's Whistle and unlock World Quests, as long as you've already unlocked World Quests on your main.

    New Music
    Patch 7.1 adds some new music, including music for Karazhan, Winter's Veil, and Diablo's Anniversary.



    Action Camera
    The Action Cam should be returning in Patch 7.1, meaning addons like dynamiccam might work once again.



    New Icons
    Lots of new icons were added in this patch!



    New Strings
    New strings in this patch include references to the system that allows you to join friends that are queuing for something.



    WoWDB Addon Data Collection
    The migration to the new Curse App continues with improved addon management support and guild servers.

    Quickly populating the database with new additions is done with the help of many players. The more people that contribute data, the more accurate and quickly we can update the database.

    To help out, just click here if you have Curse App already installed.

    When you are playing the addon will gather data and save it. When you are done playing, Curse App will see the game close and upload the collected data from the addon.

    I really hope they up the legendary drop rate for those who have been unlucky so far and flip on the purported bad luck switch. Being able to go to 925 with them once Nighthold opens is going to make it much harder (although not impossible) to find groups for those with bad RNG who haven't got theirs yet, since so much of what people think of your skill is when getting applying for groups comes from ilvl.

    Well the fact that they are putting an arrow on items with a "higher ilvl", is going to ruin how new people see gear. Just because it has a higher Ilvl does not mean it's always an upgrade based on the stats, proc rate, etc of each item. this is only going to increase the confusion of which gear is better for your character that blizzard was originally trying to stay away from.

    I can't fucking believe it, after all these blabbing about how they messed up with secondaries in legion, when you can easily have 880 ring/neck worse than a 835 one, they not only have a nerve to make an "upgrade" arrow which will mess with not so enlightened people, but also create only one fucking version of a karazan ring. I can't fucking believe it.

    How awesome is that? Not only can I wear two legionaries that I don't have, I can also upgrade my non existent legionaries. With my RNG - I will never had a legendary - or to make it more insulting one of my farming alts will have one and my main will flounder around without one.

    It warms my heart to see I'm not the only one waiting for the magic moment for one to drop. I'm beginning to feel like a minority.

    How come u can keep some raids around while also making them into new dungeons, but u couldnt do that with all of them? Like why did ZA and ZG have to go in order to make them into dungeons, but kara stays?

    They probably added this so that people wouldn't have to go back to farm WoD materials.
    Isn't it ironic how education is important, yet people forget all about it when they visit the internet?
