In today's roundup we have a mount tease, as you can see, but there's also a post on gear changes from Blizzard. You can now not only upgrade your gear twice more come patch 5.4.8, but there's also a way being added to trade Timeless Coins for Valor. Not only that, but all Garrosh heirlooms will be increased in ilvl by 8, as Bashiok notes on the official forums.
We've also got significant tweets since yesterday's post, including various class changes, LFR philosophy and patch notes for 5.4.7 PvP hotfixes. Also the BlizzCon Benefit Dinner tickets go on sale tomorrow!
New Mount: Is that a saddle?!
The official Warcraft twitter just teased this new mount! What are your thoughts, and is that a saddle?!

BlizzCon 2013 is soon. Really soon, in fact. And we're not sure if you guys know this or not, but we're having a party.
A huge party.
From 5pm to 11pm on Thursday, Nov 7th we're hosting a party with
WoW Insider
at the Anabella Hotel's
Tangerine Grill & Patio
that anyone in the area can attend. It's super close-by to BlizzCon--about a block away and easy to get to by foot. Admission is free and you don't need to be attending the con to come to our party!
There will be awesome sponsors, tons of prizes, and tons of well-known World of Warcraft faces including some Blizzard staff, popular streamers, and podcasters--and of course, staff from Wowhead and WoW Insider.
We've even got GUNNAR hosting a photobooth where you'll be able to take your photo with some Azeroth-inspired weapons, and bars with special Horde and Alliance mixed drinks. Plan to get there early, because we'll have some extra giveaways and maybe even swag for earlybirds.
If you can't come, we'll be streaming the party live on Thursday with Gary Gannon and the rest of the
Gamebreaker.tv
crew!

If you do not see an email, please check your spam folder or email .
Maybe you can't go to BlizzCon this year due to time constraints. Maybe tickets sold out before you could get one. Maybe the travel expenses just weren't affordable.
I mean, we get it. It happens to the best of us.
However, Blizzard doesn't want you to miss out. In fact, this year their awesome community team gave Wowhead twenty-five BlizzCons in a Box. From temporary tattoos to a
virtual BlizzCon 2013 pass

News Roundup: Patch 5.4 Hotfixes, BlizzCon Merchandise on Sale 10/11
posted
2013/10/10 at 11:42 AM
by
perculia
More Patch 5.4 hotfixes were posted last night, as well as a change to the arena tiebreaker spell
The Crowd Chose You!!!
. It will be replaced with
Dampening
where if a match should last for 10 minutes, all players in the Arena will begin to receive a stacking debuff that reduces healing done by 1% every 10 seconds.
Yesterday's hotfixes had a few raid tweaks, as well as fixes for outdoor bosses. The Ordon Sanctuary gate will no longer close when
Ordos
is in combat, which is great for players farming Shaohao reputation who got locked out when running back from the graveyard. The number of wolves that can be summoned by
Moonfang
's
Call the Pack
ability now has a limit as well.
The BlizzCon online sale also starts tomorrow for attendees and Virtual Ticket holders at
October 11 at 10 a.m. PT
. We won't know what the store items are until tomorrow, but so far the teaser image looks great!
