“The infinite dragonflight is investigating the history of Pandaria. Replay the Mists of Pandaria expansion with new seasonal abilities and rewards!”
- — Calendar description
WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria (previously referred to as Pandamonium during development) was a PvE-focused seasonal event that ran from 16 May 2024 at 10 AM PDT globally, a week after the launch of patch 10.2.7, until 20 August at 8 AM PDT, just before the launch of The War Within.
World of Warcraft Remix was a time-limited event which allowed players to re-experience nearly the entirety of the Mists of Pandaria expansion at an accelerated rate from level 10 through 70 using Dragonflight classes, talents, and abilities. All loot was completely overhauled and had powerful new effects allowing players to shape their experience, power up, and power on.
Much like Plunderstorm, Pandaria Remix was available to all players with an active subscription or game time. No expansion purchase was required. Additionally, players on Free Trial accounts were able to take part without a subscription or game time, up to level 20.
Players made Timerunner characters on existing Dragonflight realms at character select like they would make normal characters, and while those Timerunner characters were locked to Pandaria for the duration of the event and could not party with non-Timerunner characters, they could join existing guilds already on the realms or create new guilds by speaking with Hanchoon Yi at Paw'don Village or Honeydew Village. After the event ended, Timerunner characters converted into standard characters and shown on the Warband screen at character select as normal. All races and classes in Dragonflight could take part in the event, but the one-evoker-per-realm limit applied until the launch of patch 11.0.
Features
- Accelerated leveling and content allowing you to quickly tackle nearly every quest, scenario, dungeon and raid.
- Create a new WoW Remix character starting at level 10 to adventure through the event up to level 70.
- A mountain of loot: Get powerful items from everywhere— quests, chests, creatures, bosses.
- Customizable items allowing you to power up as far as you can go to take on tougher content.
- Convert unwanted items into [Bronze] which can be used to upgrade items or purchase cosmetics.
- Keep what you collect: Take your collection of transmogs and achievements with you into The War Within.
Levels and content
Unlike the original version of Mists of Pandaria, which was designed for characters leveling from 85 to 90, or the current post-level-squish version which is for levels 10-35, the remix runs from levels 10–70.

Heroic raids |
Efficient leveling
- Quest until level 25.
- Run low-level raids like Mogu'shan Vaults and Heart of Fear to obtain Experience threads. Do not loot [Bonus Experience] - it will be sent to the mailbox.
- Do quests when in between raids, to reach the minimum required level for entry.
- Continue to obtain experience threads as often as possible by running raids, for example through Raid Finder queues, or re-running raids.
- After having accrued bonus experience and threads from running raids (including Terrace of the Endless Spring), open all mail in the mailbox - it should provide enough experience to reach the level cap.[1]
Do not create alts until achieving [Infinite Power XII] for account-wide extra experience gain. If you have created alts before that, re-equip the cloak for the bonus to appear.
Lockouts
World bosses and 10-player normal/heroic mode raids have daily lockouts. Directly-queued heroic dungeons also have daily lockouts. Only the first-defeated August Celestial world boss on the Timeless Isle will drop loot per day. Normal dungeons, randomly-queued heroic dungeons, normal/heroic scenarios, and LFR have no lockout and can be farmed repeatedly. The ten-instance-per-hour limit still applies.
Mogu'shan Vaults, Heart of Fear, Terrace of Endless Spring, and Throne of Thunder normal and heroic raids have traditional (ID-based) lockouts, and players can be saved to either normal or heroic, but not both. This also means that players cannot enter the instance with other players that are locked to different IDs. Siege of Orgrimmar normal and heroic have modern (loot-based) lockouts and scale from 10–30 players, while mythic has ID-based lockouts and has a fixed 20-player count. Players can run all versions of Siege of Orgrimmar each day.
For the duration of the event, Pandaria raids/world bosses also have daily lockouts for non-Timerunners.
Bronze
[Bronze] is the currency of the event and is widely accessible, as it drops from enemies, is found in orbs out in the world, is awarded from completing quests or achievements, and players can scrap unwanted gear into Bronze.
Bronze caches are also awarded from Infinite Bazaar dailies and the first-time-daily random dungeon, heroic dungeon, scenario, heroic scenario, and each LFR wing per day. With a hotfix on 23 May, the daily reward increased from a Minor Cache to a Greater Cache for dungeons and scenarios for level 70 Timerunners. Another hotfix on 12 June doubled the value of bronze caches with [Timerunner's Mastery].
- [Cache of Infinite Treasure]
- [Minor Bronze Cache] (250 / 500)
- [Lesser Bronze Cache] (500 / 1000)
- [Bronze Cache] (750 / 1500)
- [Greater Bronze Cache] (1250 / 2500)
After a hotfix on 24 May, Momentus also awards bronze at level 50 (3,000), 60 (7,000), and 70 (30,000) for characters who did not abuse the Gulp Frog farm.
At the Shrine of Seven Stars and Shrine of Two Moons in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, Ludwin, at the bank, sells 36-slot [Timerunner's Satchel] bags for 10 Bronze each.
Infinite Bazaars
Vendors at Infinite Bazaars across Pandaria will trade Bronze for consumables, mounts, and armor and weapon appearances. Bazaars also have a transmogrifier, item upgrader, and Rostrum of Transformation.
-
- Aeonicus <Raid Finder Apparel>
- Arturos <Dungeon Apparel>
- Durus <Normal Raid Apparel>
- Erus <Scrapper> (and replacement weapons)
- Horos <Rare Collections>
- Grandmaster Jakkus <Class Apparel>
- Lidamorrutu <Gem Procurement>
- Momentus <Item Upgrades>
- Hemet Nesingwary XVII <Beastmaster>
- Nostwin <Snacks and Scrolls>
- Pythagorus <Heroic and Mythic Raid Apparel>
- Larah Treebender <World Apparel> (and transmog)
Itemization
While leveling, players will frequently come across Remix-specific weapons and armor either directly as drops or from [Cache of Infinite Treasure] quest rewards. These items can be upgraded at item upgraders using [Bronze] from ilvl 13 to 556, or will directly drop at higher item levels. Scrap unwanted (or outleveled) items using the [Unraveling Sands] for more Bronze, as they cannot be sold to vendors.
With some exceptions, every source of loot will drop everything that can be obtained in Remix, and the harder-to-kill enemies will have a higher chance to drop better loot. The exceptions will mostly be zone-based appearances. For example, Remix loot that drops in Throne of Thunder will have the look of ToT raid gear, and outdoor world loot will not.
Accessories (necklaces, rings, and trinkets) are only rewards from meta-achievements. Replacements are available for purchase from Lidamorrutu, the gem vendor, at any Infinite Bazaar for a nominal cost, even on alts. As of a hotfix on 24 May, these achievements are account-wide, so they do not need to be re-earned on alts:
Achievement | Item | Slot |
---|---|---|
[Pandaria Raids] | [Timerunner's Amulet] | Neck |
[Heroic: Pandaria Dungeons] | [Timerunner's Seal] | Ring |
[Heroic: Pandaria Scenarios] | [Timerunner's Ring] | Ring |
[Escalation] | [Timerunner's Beacon] | Trinket |
[Timerunner] | [Timerunner's Idol] | Trinket |
Infinite cloak and threads
Level | Quality | Count |
---|---|---|
10–29 | Thread | 1 |
30–49 | Temporal | 3 |
50–64 | Perpetual | 7 |
65–70 | Infinite | 12 |
Players acquire the artifact-level [Cloak of Infinite Potential] five quests in, which gains permanent power increases as they adventure in Pandaria by looting various threads of time like the [Thread of Haste]. Power earned on the strongest character is shared with newly-created alts to make leveling even faster. Timerunner characters who reach level 70 will unlock Wrathion's legendary cloak appearances, and enable access to Ordos on the Timeless Isle account-wide. Players who earn [Infinite Power XII] by acquiring 4,200 threads will unlock four toys to display the legendary cloak wing effects.
The threads that drop are based on character levels, with stamina threads awarding double the amount listed. Threads are effectively uncapped (with an upper limit of 10,000,000 threads per stat), and can be farmed out to excessive amounts. Stats from threads contribute to the overall maximum stat cap, so after reaching those limits, the only value characters get from threads is primary stats.
Alts of timerunner characters who have earned Infinite Power XII will start with:
- +150 Agility/Intellect/Strength
- +750 Stamina
- +150 Versatility
- +100% Experience Gain
This macro will display the total number of threads acquired:
/run local c,s={0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,148},0;for i=1,9 do s=s+C_CurrencyInfo.GetCurrencyInfo(2853+c[i]).quantity end print("Total threads:",s)
With data from high-thread farmers, and excluding Experience Gain (as that stops dropping at level 65) approximate drop rates have been determined. Numbers do not add up to 100% due to rounding:
- 7-8% Agility/Intellect/Strength
- 55% Stamina
- 6-7% Critical Strike
- 6-7% Haste
- 5-6% Leech
- 6-7% Mastery
- 5-6% Speed
- 6-7% Versatility
Spools
Added on 21 May, though not retroactively awarded for already-earned achievements, Blizzard added spools as a reward for completing other content to encourage players to stop grinding frogs, goats, or Dalaran. Spools will randomly reward any one stat, with double the listed amount if it's stamina. With a hotfix on 12 June, spool values tripled from their previous value with [Timerunner's Mastery].
- [Greater Spool of Eternal Thread] (180 / 540)
- [Spool of Eternal Thread] (100 / 300)
- [Lesser Spool of Eternal Thread] (50 / 150)
- [Minor Spool of Eternal Thread] (20 / 60)
Players receive spools from select daily tasks, though lower-level players will receive lower-quality spools:
- Greater Spool — World bosses (Galleon, Sha of Anger, Oondasta, Nalak, August Celestial, Ordos), and Infinite Bazaar dailies ( [10-70] A Fresh Scene, [10-70] Looking for Group, [10-70] Looking for More)
- Spool — First random dungeon, heroic dungeon, scenario, heroic scenario, and each LFR wing per day
Remix achievements also award fixed spools, regardless of level at the same quality of the bronze cache:
- Greater Spool — Campaign quests, heroic raids
- Spool — Reputation, zone tours, LFR, and normal raids
- Lesser Spool — Treasures, rares, heroic scenarios, heroic dungeons
- Minor Spool — Exploration, normal scenarios, normal dungeons, world bosses
Beyond all of that, the Troves of the Thunder King single-player scenario on the Timeless Isle will drop spools as well. The repeatable quests [10-70] Aid the Sunreavers Onslaught or [10-70] Aid the Kirin Tor Offensive will award a [Key to the Palace of Lei Shen] on their first completion of the day.
Upgrading and item levels
As players gain levels, armor and weapons that drop or are found inside a [Cache of Infinite Treasure] will have an increased base item level, starting at item level 13 at level 10, scaling all the way up to item level 346 at level 70. Items can be upgraded by paying Momentus a nominal [Bronze] charge at any Infinite Bazaar. However, item drops are frequent enough that it will not be necessary to pay to upgrade gear until reaching level 70. Gear will not drop at higher than ilvl 346.
At level 70/ilvl 346, all items must be upgraded in lock-step to unlock the next upgrade rank. For example, to reach ilvl 374, all upgradeable items first must be at or above ilvl 360. Costs also drastically increase: where upgrades may have cost roughly 400 Bronze before, they now cost 2,530–9,000 Bronze per upgrade. To fully upgrade from ilvl 346 to ilvl 556, the following Bronze costs must be paid:
- 135,000 (9,000 each) — Two-hand weapons or one-hand+off-hand weapons
- 67,500 (4,500 each) x3 — Head, chest, legs
- 50,625 (3,375 each) x4 — Shoulder, hands, waist, feet
- 37,950 (2,530 each) — Wrist
This means each round of upgrades costs 38,530 Bronze and a grand total of 577,950 Bronze (15 rounds) is required to raise all upgradeable slots to maximum. Accessories (necks, rings, and trinkets) and the cloak cannot be upgraded with Bronze.
Qualities and stats
Equipment starts at uncommon (green) quality and armor will roll a random secondary/tertiary stat, while weapons will only have primary stats (agility/intellect/strength). For example, any chest piece could roll one of versatility, leech, or avoidance. The magnitude of the stat is fixed based on ilvl, but different stats will provide different value.
At rare (blue) quality, armor will pick up primary stats, and weapons will gain stamina.
At epic (purple) quality, armor rolls another secondary/tertiary stat, and weapons roll their first (and only) secondary/tertiary stat. The second rolled stat on armor can double-up with the first, so for example, a helm with mastery on it can roll extra mastery. Heroic or Mythic mode raids have the highest chance of dropping epic quality gear, but even open world gear has an extremely slim chance of rolling an epic upgrade.
Slot | Crit | Haste | Mastery | Vers | Leech | Avoid | Speed | Primary |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Head | 834 | 1668 | 1668 | 96 | ||||
Shoulder | 625 | 625 | 625 | 72 | ||||
Chest | 834 | 1668 | 834 | 96 | ||||
Wrist | 469 | 469 | 938 | 938 | 54 | |||
Hands | 625 | 625 | 1251 | 1251 | 72 | |||
Waist | 1251 | 625 | 313 | 72 | ||||
Legs | 834 | 834 | 417 | 96 | ||||
Feet | 625 | 625 | 313 | 72 |
Maximum stats
Raw stats on gear and from threads stop having an effect in combat after reaching the following values:
- 36,000 Critical Strike
- 34,000 Haste
- 36,000 Mastery
- 41,000 Versatility
- 15,000 Leech
- 10,000 Avoidance
- 5,000 Speed
Adjust gear and gems if over these caps to ensure they're being used. Haste from Bloodlust/Heroism-type effects will still be effective even at the haste cap.
Ability gems
Slot | Type |
---|---|
Head | Meta |
Neck | Prismatic |
Shoulders | Tinker |
Chest | Prismatic |
Wrist | Tinker |
Hands | Tinker |
Waist | Tinker |
Legs | Prismatic |
Feet | Cogwheel |
Finger | Prismatic |
Trinket | Prismatic |
Many new customizable items can be found and each item slot has their own unique identity with ability gem sockets. These sockets come with exciting turbo-charged new effects similar to trinkets. Additionally, each time an item is looted, it has a chance of rolling powerful upgrades that unlock increased permanent stats.
Gems can be found in a [Cache of Infinite Treasure], drop directly from mobs, or can be purchased in exchange for 200–500 [Bronze] from Lidamorrutu at Infinite Bazaars. Gems can be equipped like normal by shift-right-clicking on gear with slots, and can be removed by using the [Extract Gem] ability learned automatically after looting a gem. Each slot has specified gem sockets, as shown in the table.
By level 60, players should have all non-prismatic gems drop, so there is no need to spend Bronze to purchase them.
Meta gems
Meta gems provide throughput abilities and slot into helms. An [Asynchronized Meta Gem] will randomly create an unlearned gem.
Cogwheel gems
Cogwheel gems provide movement abilities and slot into foot armor. An [Asynchronized Cogwheel Gem] will randomly create an unlearned gem.
Tinker gems
Tinker gems provide passive utility abilities and slot into shoulders, wrists, hands, and waists. An [Asynchronized Tinker Gem] will randomly create an unlearned gem.

Prismatic gems
Prismatic gems provide stats and slot into chests, legs, and accessories (neck, ring, trinket). They can be combined to create a more powerful version from chipped to flawed to standard to perfect. Unlike other gem types, prismatic gems are not bound, so they can be traded. A purchased [Asynchronized Prismatic Gem] will randomly create a chipped prismatic gem.
Prismatic gems give stats based on the ilvl of the item that they're socketed into.
- Critical Strike
- Leech
- Mastery
- Haste
- Armor
- Movement Speed
- Versatility
A health regen series of gems was datamined ( [Sustaining Emerald]), but they are not dropping on the live servers.

Pythagorus also sells the [Tusks of Mannoroth] appearance for 20 [Bones of Mannoroth] and 38,500 Bronze. Bones drop from Garrosh on normal difficulty or higher in the Siege of Orgrimmar, with one dropping in normal, four in heroic, and ten in mythic. During Remix, all normal difficulty or higher raids have a daily lockout, rather than weekly.
Quests
Newly-created characters spawn at level 10 in a bubble on the Timeless Isle, where Eternus starts a questline to anchor players and give them their [Cloak of Infinite Potential] before sending them off to start the Jade Forest storyline. Alts of timerunners who have completed the intro can speak with Eternus to skip ahead to [10-70] Recalling the War.

Nearly all quests of the Mists of Pandaria campaign are available in Pandaria Remix, which require the levels shown in the Levels and content section above:
- Jade Forest storyline
- Valley of the Four Winds storyline
- Krasarang Wilds storyline (and Landfall)
- Kun-Lai Summit storyline
- Townlong Steppes storyline
- Dread Wastes storyline
- Isle of Thunder storyline
Reputation
All factions except for the Tillers (including their friendship factions) and the Black Prince are present in Remix. Reputation gain has generally been accelerated, and most factions will reach exalted either automatically from questing (such as the Forest Hozen or Pearlfin Jinyu, Dominance Offensive or Operation: Shieldwall, the Klaxxi, and Shado-Pan), or with a few days of dailies (like the August Celestials, or Order of the Cloud Serpent).
The notable exceptions are Shado-Pan Assault, which requires repeated runs of Throne of Thunder; Emperor Shaohao, which requires grinding on the Timeless Isle; and the Anglers (and Nat Pagle's friendship faction), which require a great deal of fishing.
Players who had previously earned the Grand Commendations will have their effects on Timerunning characters, further increasing reputation gain. Additionally, Zandalari Warbringers drop a great deal of reputation tokens. Players can also turn in 10x [Lesser Charm of Good Fortune] to daily questgivers in repeatable reputation quests for a boost.
After a hotfix on 29 May, Throne of Thunder bosses award 1,000 reputation per day (was 300 per week). On 12 June, Blizzard increased Emperor Shaohao reputation gains by 700%.

Achievements
Most Pandaria Remix content has associated achievements that are awarded for completing said content. Achievements reward various levels of Bronze Caches or, from the meta achievements, actual rewards. They also reward Spools of threads for the [Cloak of Infinite Potential]. These achievements are classified as Feats of Strength and award no achievement points. Earning many of these achievements will also earn their equivalent Retail achievements, which do award achievement points. For example, the quest chains necessary for [Campaign: The Jade Forest] are the same as for [Upjade Complete]. [Mythic Remix: Siege of Orgrimmar] is a hidden feat of strength and will not be visible until all bosses have been defeated.

Reputation
Zones
Various features will not make an appearance in Pandaria Remix, including:
- Non-Pandaria zones
- Item durability
- Mail from or partying with non-Timerunners
- Heirlooms
- Auction House
- PvP and War Mode
- Professions (except Fishing for the Anglers)
- Sunsong Ranch (and The Tillers)
- Brawler's Guild
- Challenge Modes and [Ashen Pandaren Phoenix]
- The pre-patch 5.4 Vale of Eternal Blossoms storyline
- Wrathion's legendary cloak questline
- [Kor'kron War Wolf]
- Lost treasures provide [Bronze] instead and do not complete their criteria (Jade Warrior Statue treasure is disabled)
- Celestial Tournament and Pandaria Master Pet Tamers
While it is possible to teleport out of Pandaria with certain toys and abilities, the character is then promptly teleported back. [Scouting Map: A Stormstout's Guide to Pandaria] is not useable by Timerunners during Remix.
Some quests require going to a zone outside Pandaria, which will allow the player to finish the quest(s) but venturing too far from the questing area will teleport the player back to the quest giver. An example of this would be some quests in the Landfall storyline which will take the Horde player to Teldrassil and Silvermoon City at different points of the story.
Despite most normal loot being unavailable during Remix, [Lobstmourne] is still obtainable from Clawlord Kril'mandar.
Post-event
After the event, (now-)former Timerunners will get relocated next to Chromie in Stormwind City or Orgrimmar, stripped of any gear or items obtained during the event, and be greeted with a message:
The Timerunning event has ended. You have been transported back to your home timeline.
Items from the event have been removed.
Characters will be equipped with level-appropriate gear (ilvl 467 at level 70) and receive an [Adventurer's Footlocker] for classes with multiple weapon options, a [Timerunner's Parting Pack] with up to 2,000 in it, four 30-slot [Shrouded Cloth Bag], and a 26-slot [Gatherer's Reagent Pouch], but no bank bags. Additionally, action bars and talents will be reset.
Timerunners will also receive a letter from Moratari with any items that characters are allowed to keep:
We have recovered something you obtained while serving as a Timerunner that may persist without disrupting the timeline. You will find your property enclosed.
Until we next meet.
- Moratari
Such items include:
- [Theramore Tabard]

- Hotfix (2024-05-30):
- [Righteous Frenzy] can no longer be cast on non-party members.
- In the Throne of Thunder Dark Animus encounter, the increased damage and attack speed by Anima Golems casting Acceleration Link has been reduced to 100% per stack (was 250%).
- In the Throne of Thunder Iron Qon encounter, Storm Cloud should no longer deal extreme damage to players.
- In A Brewing Storm, Viletongue Skirmishers' Viletongue Sting now reduces healing by 60% (was 90%).
- Fixed a bug that unintentionally added additional enemy health for highly geared players against Heroic raid bosses.
- Developers' notes: In combination with previous recent hotfixes, this should result in health and damage versus Heroic raid bosses being as intended for players of higher and lower item levels, so that players of mixed item levels can have a better experience playing together. Overall, players with higher item levels should do greater damage and have greater survivability.

- Hotfix (2024-05-29):
- Endgame tuning adjustments have been made to Heroic Scenarios, Heroic Dungeons, and Normal Raids so that they increase in power more slowly between levels 60 and 70. Heroic and Mythic raids have been adjusted so there is a smoother transition between them.
- Players who completed the Pearlfin Jinyu questline can now bring [Lesser Charms of Good Fortune] to Elder Lusshan for additional reputation.
- Players who completed the Forest Hozen questline can now bring Lesser Charms of Good Fortune to Chief Kah Kah for additional reputation.
- Fixed a bug that inadvertently capped the maximum stats that can be gained on a [Cloak of Infinite Potential]. That cap has been removed.
- Shado-Pan Assault reputation earned per boss kill increased to 1000 (was 300). This amount is available daily.
- Elder Great Turtles and Ancient Spineclaws have migrated back to the Timeless Shore, which should benefit players who are just [Killing Time].
- [Illusion: Sha Corruption] can now be destroyed by players who have already learned it elsewhere.
- Adjusted and tuned several gem effects:
- [Arcanist's Edge] absorb amount (that can be converted into damage) has been doubled.
- [Fervor] health amounts (that can be converted into damage) has been doubled.
- [Righteous Frenzy] damage dealt to targets increased to 2% per second (was 1%).
- Developers' notes: This should give healers a bit more to do while optimizing their group's damage, and it should make some gem combinations even more interesting.
- [Searing Light] collected healing points increased to 10% (was 7%).
- [Slay] cannot critically strike.
- Developers' notes: Slay still hits for the player's entire health amount, and will remain an incredibly powerful option.
- [Ward of Salvation] no longer applies a heal absorb. It has been reworked so that the caster's heals are duplicated as an absorb shield, but not other sources of healing.
- Developers' notes: Ward of Salvation will remain a powerful way for healers to deliver some additional damage, but should not trivialize the most difficult raid encounters.

- Hotfix (2024-05-28):
- On Friday, May 24, the following changes were deployed:
- There are now three new quests that grant Bronze to player-characters upon reaching levels 50, 60, and 70.
- The new quests are only available to player-characters who did not kill many Gulp Frogs during the first three days of the event.
- Player-characters who killed many Gulp Frogs during the first days of the event have been modified. The power of their Cloak of Infinite Potential was reduced to an amount that a very engaged player could reasonably achieve.
- On Friday, May 24, the following changes were deployed:
- Hotfix (2024-05-23):
- Normal scenarios, Normal dungeons, Heroic scenarios, Heroic dungeons, and daily Infinite Bazaar quests now award a Cache containing 5x as much Bronze as before.
- Developers' notes: We intend for players to earn more Bronze as you level up, so you can more easily start purchasing upgrades and rewards. At level 70, these caches now award 8750 Bronze (this was previously 1750 Bronze).
- Fixed an issue where the Celestial Court bosses on the Timeless Isle would occasionally despawn.
- Fixed a bug affecting the scaling of certain Tinker gems.
- Putrid Waste enemies in Throne of Thunder no longer deal extreme amounts of Putrify damage.
- Brewmaster Blanche now queues you for A Brewing Storm when asked.
- The Paragon of the Mists title is now account wide.
- Normal scenarios, Normal dungeons, Heroic scenarios, Heroic dungeons, and daily Infinite Bazaar quests now award a Cache containing 5x as much Bronze as before.
- Hotfix (2024-05-22):
- Added clarity to the quest " [15-35] The Great Water Hunt" to speak with Mudmug before gathering water.
- Nostwin now sells [Glyph of Shadow] for Priests.
- Fixed an issue preventing the quest " [20-35] Where are My Reinforcements?" from proceeding as expected.
- Improved the respawn rate and treasure from rares and rare elites across Pandaria.
- Increased the amount of bronze and raised the drop chance for threads of time from airborne bronze.
- Fixed an issue where players who faction-changed could not use the group finder for dungeons and scenarios.
- Fixed an issue preventing the quest " [10-35] Riding the Skies" from granting the appropriate Cloud Serpent mount.
- Fixed an issue causing Wise Mari in the Temple of the Jade Serpent to not spawn Corrupt Living Water as intended.
- Hutia was out of control in the Jade Forest, and has been convinced to relax a bit and stop hitting so hard.
- Hotfix (2024-05-21):
- We have made the following changes to improve Thread of Time gain for the [Cloak of Infinite Potential]. Our goal with these additional items is to give players access to more Threads of Time from daily repeatable sources. These should serve as readily attainable power-ups from a wide variety of content, so players can enjoy the breadth of Pandaria while also gaining additional power. There are four new items that grant players escalating amounts of power for the Cloak of Infinite Potential:
- Players will be able to find these new items from a variety of solo and group sources, ensuring all players have accessible ways to improve their cloak:
- Infinite Bazaar Repeatable Dailies
- First-Time Daily Scenario, Dungeon, and each LFR queue
- World Bosses
- Remix Achievements
- Each of these achievements are available for additional characters to complete as well for bonus Bronze - and now bonus Spools of Eternal Thread.
- Troves of the Thunder King scenario on the Isle of Thunder
- We've made the following changes and bugfixes are intended to address concerns about the balance of low- and high-level players in various Remix content.
- The health of creatures in heroic scenarios has been decreased by 20% - 25%, based on the players' levels. Higher level players will see enemies incur a larger decrease.
- The health and damage of creatures on the Timeless Isle, Isle of Giants, and Isle of Thunder has been reduced.
- Several spell gems (that were not scaling up or down correctly based on player level) have been adjusted so that they provide a more-appropriate scaling effect. This includes [Cold Front], [Windweaver], [Vampiric Aura], and [Lightning Rod].
- Spell gems with shielding effects should no longer cause threat.
- Fixed a bug with [Righteous Frenzy] not canceling upon the end of combat.
- [Timerunner's Vial] mana regen significantly increased.
- Adjusted the reputation granted from Granite Quilen to be more in line with expected values.
- Fixed an issue in Guo-Lai Halls causing trap tiles to flicker.
- Hotfix (2024-05-20):
- Shirts and tabards can now be purchased from Larah Treebender <World Apparel> at any Infinite Bazaar, Mei Steadypaw <Barber> outside the Shrine of Two Moons and the Shrine of Seven Stars, and Hanchoon Yi <Guild Master> at Paw'don Village, Honeydew Village, Shrine of Two Moons, and Shrine of Seven Stars.
- Fixed a bug preventing Timerunners with a legendary [Cloak of Infinite Potential] from accessing Ordon Sanctuary as intended.
- Fixed an issue with the spawning of Voress'thalik which prevented the completion of " [25-35] Devastation Below".
- Fixed an issue preventing players from learning Amber Pterrordax.
- Fixed a bug causing Gulp Frogs to unintentionally drop Lesser Charms of Good Fortune.
- Enemy power scaling, particularly in group content, has been adjusted to be less aggressive. This is particularly applicable in the player level 40 - 70 range, before players have been able to power up their cloak, upgrade their gems, and increase their item level.
- Gear drop-rates have been improved from world rares, rare elites, and quests. This will help players who have had their item levels fall behind as leveling speed increases, especially at higher levels when cloak bonus experience is powered up.
- Developers' notes: This will also increase player Bronze and appearance acquisition by increasing the number of items to place into the Unraveling Sands for additional Bronze.
- The first-time bonus for queueing each LFR wing will grant a [Thread of Experience] in addition to the existing [Lesser Bronze Cache].
- Developers' notes: This should improve LFR as a viable choice for leveling main characters and alts, without players feeling like they need to grind the same LFR wing repeatedly.
- We have added bonus experience to each boss in normal dungeons and scenarios so they are a viable alternative to questing. Bonus experience has also been adding to the last boss of Heroic Scenarios. Heroic dungeon bosses will continue to drop bonus experience.
- We've increased the number of prismatic gems dropped from bosses in normal and heroic scenarios and dungeons.
- Developers' notes: The increased stamina offered by Legendary Prismatic gems boosts player survivability considerably.
- We have increased the Bronze granted from all qualities of Bronze Caches by 25%.
- Developers' notes: These caches are available from a wide variety of sources, both solo and group. This includes the [Minor Bronze Cache], [Lesser Bronze Cache], [Bronze Cache], and [Greater Bronze Cache].
- Fixed an issue where Sha-Skin Vestment was marked as Cosmetic instead of Cloth armor.
- Hotfix (2024-05-16): Fixed a bug that initially prevented players who did not own Dragonflight from being able to learn Dragonriding from Lord Andestrasz in Remix: Pandaria. This was unintended.
- Patch 10.2.7 (2024-05-07): Added.
