is there anything to be really excited about in this patch?

I mean i really want to be excited but the thought of grinding 60+ daily quests just makes me want to throw my pc in a river.

Over 60 daily quests, plus the current daily quests that players may still be working on, and there is a limit of 25 per day?

Within the Regrowth and Molten Front daily quest areas, players will have numerous options, both in terms of the content they unlock and what quests they might play through on a daily basis. One of the first places players will get to experience this type of "modular" gameplay is near the entrance to the Molten Front, in the forward base known as Malfurion's Breach.

In addition to your normal duties at this outpost, you'll also be asked to secure the aid of two benevolent orders stationed in Mount Hyjal: the Druids of the Talon, led by Skylord Omnuron, and the Shadow Wardens, a fierce group of night elves under the guidance of Captain Saynna Stormrunner. This will be a pivotal point in your progression within the Molten Front and represents the first big unlock of new content for the area.

To secure the allegiance of the druids and wardens, you'll need to collect Marks of the World Tree to present to each order's leader. Once you've gained the appropriate amount of marks and turn them in, you'll unlock a unique set of daily quests tailored to either the Druids of the Talon or the Shadow Wardens. If you unlock the Druids of the Talon dailies, your journeys will take you into the shadow of the Furnace, an area wreathed in constant flame; the Molten Flow, a river of lava inhabited by flamewakers for as far as the eye can see; and Fireplume Peak, a floating island protected by hot-tempered fire hawks. If you opt to unlock the Shadow Warden dailies, you'll lay siege to the Forlorn Spire, wresting it from the enemy's grasp and establishing a new forward outpost. From there, you’ll be poised to attack the Widow’s Clutch, the breeding grounds for hordes of fire spiders, and Wildflame Point, a base of operations for the nefarious Druids of the Flame.

Once you've recruited both the Druids of the Talon and the Shadow Wardens, you'll have the option to choose which set of daily quests you complete each day. You'll only able to be complete one set of daily quests per reset (either the Druid of the Talon dailies or the Shadow Warden dailies), but the choice of which path you take is up to you.

Justice, Valor and Honor Points in 4.2

Bashiok

I haven't seen any information towards the reset on justice and honor points in the next patch, only about the transfer of conquest points to honor points and valor to justice.

So should I spend all of my honor&justice points?

So... you're going to get JP over the 4k cap?

Bashiok

Talking about the Raid Set Gear you currently need Valor Points -OR- Tokens to exchange to acquire (unless you get them off the bosses in TB) from the Vendors in SW/ORG

Once all the current "Valor" stuff converts to Justice, will we still need the Raid Tokens off the bosses to get the set pieces currently requiring those set piece tokens? Or will they be reassigned with a Justice Point value instead?

In other words, can we buy a full set of T11 gear with ONLY Justice Points when 4.2 hits? Or do we still need some tokens?

Comment by nahtepssweet ;DComment by dunpielAm I the only one that remembers them saying something about letting us purchase all tier 11 gear with just justice, instead of tokens? Did I misunderstand a previous statement, did they backpedal, or did I just want it badly enough to think it was the case?Comment by GnubAm I the only one that remembers them saying something about letting us purchase all tier 11 gear with just justice, instead of tokens?
