Recommended Posts

Blizzard has further updated the Skyriding Talent tree in the latest War Within Alpha build. Find out what's new!

Here is a preview of the tree from last week's War Within Alpha Build. You've had all the Skyriding abilities listed at the top and were given just enough "Dragon Power" to unlock all the talents with two "free" choice nodes located on the right side.

Skyriding Talent Tuning in War Within Alpha Build 54774

Some Skyriding talents have been updated in the latest build:

  • Ground Skimming- When skyriding near the ground, you regenerate 1 Vigor every 30 15 sec. This effect does not occur while affected by Thrill of the Skies unless Swift Skimming is learned.
  • Bronze Timelock- Mark a waypoint on your positional timeline. Use Bronze Rewind to rewind to this location. Can only be used in the Dragon Isles.
  • Whirling Surge- Spiral forward a great distance, increasing speed. Whirling Surge evades Wingshredders and dismounts airborne enemy players
  • Skyriding Basics- While falling from a high location, your mount extends its wings to propel you both forward. Pointing yourself downward grants more momentum. Evening out can transfer that momentum forward. Pointing yourself upward slows you down. When at your slowest, you will start to fall slowly toward the ground. You also gain access to the following abilities: Surge Forward Flap forward. Surge Forward evades Scalechillers, Scalechargers, and other obstacles encountered in time trials and races. Skyward Ascent Flap upward.
  • Aerial Halt- Flap back, reducing forward movement. After activating Aerial Halt, experience a brief moment of weightlessness as the effects of gravity are reduced for 4 sec.

Skyriding Proficiency

In the most recent TWW Alpha build, the Skyriding tree has changed a bit. Dragon Power [PH] has been renamed to Skyriding Proficiency and the tree layout has been simplified. It now has 6 tiers.

You will gain Skyriding Proficiency as you level up, but we currently cannot create low level characters on the PTR, only pre-made Level 70 template characters, so we cannot tell at which level you will gain Skyriding Proficiency.

      Learn more about the Matrix Catalyst in the War Within that lets you transform non-set items into tier set pieces!
      You'll find the Matrix Catalyst in Dornogal, the capital city for both factions.

      Nearby, you'll see Custodian Khubon, the Catalyst Steward for the expansion.
      You can ask him about the Catalyst, though he's somewhat misguided. He believes the famed titan keepers crafted it, but we've had this for three expansions now, so we know the real story.


      To convert a non-set item into a set piece, you must insert an eligible Veteran track or higher Season 1 item, following a structure similar to the previous expansion.

      As for catalyst charges,  I think you will get your first charge when Season 1 starts on September 10 and every other week you will receive an additional charge.

      Larovus has hit the jackpot for the year! Both the rare Tusks of Mannoroth and the Kor'kron Juggernaut mount dropped from a single Mythic Garrosh kill.
      Fortunately, you can now kill Garrosh on a daily basis, but it still requires a lot of luck to loot both items simultaneously, as they have a drop rate of about 1%.

      Here's a close-up of the loot window. As you can see, Larovus has looted the Tusks of Mannoroth and the Kor'kron Juggernaut mount in one kill.

      Have you had any luck with double rare raid drops? Let me know in the comments below!

      The War Within Season 1 adds new kiss/curse affixes and here is a spreadsheet with class specializations that will benefit from the kiss portion of each affix.
      New Kiss/Curse Affixes in War Within Season 1
      Blizzard recently unveiled the following kiss/curse affixes making its way to Mythic+ in Season 1.
      Attuned - Non-boss enemies with mana inflict 20% more magic damage, but take 10% increased Nature damage and 30% increased damage from Bleed effects. Focused - Non-boss enemies with mana have 30% increased Haste, but take 10% increased Frost and Fire damage. Reckless - Non-boss enemies without mana ignore 20% armor with their attacks, but their armor is reduced by 30% and they take 10% increased Arcane damage. Thorned - Non-boss enemies without mana inflict Physical damage to their attackers when attacked, but take 10% increased Holy and Shadow damage. Which Classes/Specializations Benefit from the Kiss Portion the Most?
      If you read the affix tooltips, it is obvious that some classes will benefit more from their effect. For instance, during Reckless weeks, you want to bring an Arcane Mage, or a Balance Druid, and so forth.
      Denethar has created a useful spreadsheet covering which specs benefit from the affixes the most, you can find it here.

      The Prismatic Bauble toy is easier to purchase during this month! 
      Usually, the toy's available for 250,000 gold from the Mad Merchant who doesn't spawn often. However, during Pride Month, you can purchase Prismatic Bauble directly from Jepetto Joybuzz in Legion Dalaran, avoiding the long wait.
      The toy will still cost 250,000 Gold, though. You can find Jepetto Joybuzz at the Dalaran Toyworks.


      Happy Pride Month!

      Find out how fast you can level from 10 to 70 in the War Within pre-patch after the recent XP nerfs!

      Experience the New XP Changes in the War Within Pre-Patch
      Starting in the War Within pre-patch, leveling from 10 to 70 now requires 54% less experience compared to retail. This means faster progression and a more streamlined gameplay experience. For an in-depth look at these changes, check out our detailed article on big XP requirement nerfs.
      Speed Leveling to 70: A Case Study
      MrGM managed to level from 10 to 70 in just 10 hours and 2 minutes of /played time by following the Dragon Isles Campaign and completing side quests. The leveling pace felt balanced overall but accelerated significantly from levels 50 to 70. By the end, MrGM’s character had Item Level of 322 gear and nearly 8,000 Gold.
      MrGM turned on War Mode for an extra 10% XP and another 5% came from the Warband achievement (Five Warband Mentors: The War Within). For each Level 80 char, your alts will receive 5% extra XP, up to 25%.
