Burning Seeds: Fire Kitty Disguise Added in Patch 5.2
During the Patch 5.2 PTR, players noticed that
Seme in Fiamme
had been datamined, which would allow players to "harness the essence of Fire granted to the Druids of the Flame." The buff given,
Essenza Bruciante
, explicitly stated that players turn into a Druid of the Flame while in Cat Form. This sounded exactly like the fire kitty effect granted by
Alabarda Ardente di Fandral
, except you didn't need to farm up the staff. What was the catch?
Well, nobody knew how to get them, which has led to a heated discussion if this item ever made it to live servers. Earlier today, Community Manager Crithto
made a post
that
Seme in Fiamme
s were in fact available in game, but
very
well hidden--nobody had reported finding them since Patch 5.2 went live over a month ago.
Thanks to
Bearface
and
Akrin
for finding it and emailing me the intial details, and

Jasyla
for going to Firelands with me!

Live WoW Developer Q&A Transcript
Blizzard's Live WoW Developer Q&A took place on Thursday, April 25th, 5:30 pm PDT. Designers Dave Kosak, Ion Hazzikostas, Brian Holinka, Cory Stockton, and Greg Street answered player questions--since they covered a ton of questions over the course of an hour, we've organized all of their answers below by topic!
You can also visit
Blizzard's site
to view a full chronological transcript of the Q&A.
Q&A Highlights
Some epic battle pets are coming in 5.4.
The new Barrens content in 5.3 will not be CRZ, and will not affect low-level questing.
Think the Alliance was shortchanged on lore? Dave Kosak has some thoughts on that.
Plans are in the works for some server population issues.
Based on player feedback, the PvP Pet Battle system may continue to expand after 5.3.
While the 5.4 raid will include Orgrimmar, it won't just be recycled zones--plans will see some new stuff.
PvP questions included players asking about PvPers making gold and additional PvP rewards. They also asked about 5.3 changes, such as ilvl 496 item scaling for PvP and removing resilience from PvP gear.

News Round Up: In-Game Mistborn Tribute, Scenario Analysis
In-Game Mistborn Tribute
Reddit members
recently discovered a very cool tribute to the Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson, with
Kelsier
and
Allomancy
references!
Rogues can visit
Fantasma di Reislek
outside of Ravenholdt and copy his appearance using
Glifo - Camuffamento
while pickpocketing him.
Next, visit
Orsur
at the bottom of Ravenholdt Manor while disguised--he'll only be visible with
Glifo Carbonizzato
or
Rivelatore di Fantasmi Extradimensionale
. Don't mount up when heading to him, as you'll lose the disguise.
After interacting with him, he'll give you
Sacca di Monete del Sopravvissuto
and you'll get the buff
Sacca del Sopravvissuto
!
To get "coins" for your bag, pickpocket humanoids--you'll get between 1-4. Coins will display as a buff,
Sacca del Sopravvissuto
and can stack up to 50.
If you have the coin buff, you can propel yourself backwards around a zone without landing until you run out of coins--this can only be used outside. Simply target an area you'd like to move away from.

The
Horde Rebellion we noticed last week on the 5.3 PTR

Players complete quests to support the Darkspear in rebelling against Garrosh, and destroy Kor'kron NPCs and their supply carts in the Northern Barrens.
As rewards, players get
Latent Kor’kron Armor
which can be turned into a spec-appropriate ilvl 476 epic.

Item Upgrades in Patch 5.3, Oondasta's Health Reduced by 50%
Blizzard posted a huge blog on item upgrades today, in the midst of revealing their new game,
Hearthstone
at PAX East.
Here's what you need to know about item upgrades returning:
They'll be returning in Patch 5.3 at a reduced cost for PvE gear.
0
Punti Valore
is needed to upgrade an item by 4 levels, instead of 0
Punti Valore
as in Patch 5.1.
5.2 Justice items now require 750 Justice to upgrade per 8 item levels, for a total of 750 Justice for 8 item levels per item.
Season 12 PvP items can be upgraded, but no other PvP items for the foreseeable future. Many PvPers did not like the concept of upgrades, and there were some imbalance issues going from ilvl 483 Honor gear that was upgraded to ilvl 491 in 5.1, to ilvl 476 un-upgradeable Honor gear in 5.2.
There was also a post today stating that
Undasta
's health was reduced by 50%--should be a bit more killable now.
