Faction Justice Gear Hotfix

posted 2012/10/01 at 8:10 PM by perculia

Bashiok

We've just applied a hotfix that removes the faction requirements for Justice gear.

Shado-Pan and August Celestial factions will no longer require Golden Lotus faction to purchase this gear. This will allow players who have reached level 90 to have additional sources of item level (ilevel) 450 gear to progress into the Dungeon Finder Heroic dungeons more readily.

Players who are looking to purchase this gear should seek out the following vendors:

Townlong Steppes:

Shadow-Pan - Rushin the Fox in Shado-Pan Garrison
All - Lo Pin in Niuzao Temple

Vale of Eternal Blossoms:

August Celestials - Sage Lotusbloom or Sage Whiteheart in the Horde and Alliance Shrines
Golden Lotus - Jaluu the Generous in front of Mogu’shan Palace

Dread Wastes:

Klaxxi - Ambersmith Zikk in Klaxxivess

The Lorewalkers

Quartermaster: Tan Shin Tiao, Vale of Eternal Blossoms

Both completing the achievement and turning in the scroll to Lorewalker Cho will give reputation. Turning in all the scrolls will net you Exalted.

Mists of Pandaria: Valor Point and Gear Acquisition Preview

posted 2012/08/07 at 2:04 PM by perculia

Valor of the AncientsElder Charm of Good FortuneValor PointsValor of the Ancients and Elder Charm of Good Fortune

Valor of the Ancients: All characters on that realm now earn 50% more Valor Points when one character is capped. However, the maximum cap is now 3,000 Valor Points, down from 4,000. This is great for alts or players who aren't sure what character they want to commit to more in early Mists. With account-wide achievements, it's great to have multiple characters geared enough to swap into raids to fill a needed role.

Elder Charm of Good Fortune: Whenever you kill a raid boss, a UI window will ask if you want to spend a Elder Charm of Good Fortune on an extra roll. You will get another shot at the boss' loot table and win something extra--gold, gems, flasks, and possibly epic loot for your spec. 3 can be acquired each week from Elder Charms of Good Fortune, and Lesser Charm of Good Fortune can be acquired from completing daily quests.
