5.4.8 Patch coming

Gear changes are coming! First, in Patch 5.4.8 (which is currently in testing on the PTR), all upgradable epic items introduced to the game in Patch 5.4 will be given the option to upgrade 2 more times for a grand total of 16 item levels. This change will be applied to all items found on the Timeless Isle and in Siege of Orgrimmar. For instance, if you have an item level 553 Greatsword of Pride’s Fall and its Upgrade Level is 2/2 making it item level 561, once the new patch goes live it will display 2/4 and allow you the opportunity to bump it up to item level 569. Whether you’re working on a newly boosted character or progressing through Siege of Orgrimmar, we hope this change will provide you with the extra punch you need to take down your foes.

Second, we are also adding a new token called Deeds of Valor which will cost 3000 Timeless Coins, and can be used to grant your character 100 Valor Points. Players who wish to purchase the new token can do so by visiting Mistweaver Ai on the Timeless Isle next to the Celestial Court. Keep in mind, these tokens won’t allow you to go above the current weekly cap on Valor, but they do provide you an extra option to gain the points you may need so you can upgrade your gear.

[update] Thanks everyone for your feedback, we will be bumping up the ilvl of all Garrosh Heirlooms by +8 in 5.4.8, since they are not upgradeable with Valor. The intent of the 5.4.8 VP upgrade change is to let people continue to progress, and we don’t want those who are using one of the Garrosh BoA weapons as their primary weapon to feel like they need to go get a brand new weapon due to this change.

    Time to farm valor. :/

    BRING ON THE VALOR. I'm sure people have tons of timeless coins they can blow on Deeds of Valor.

  • RyderRyder Kalamazoo, Mi Icrontian

    Many people didn't use the isle though and then blew what they did have (or had to get more to complete) on the legendary quest.

  • ThraxThrax 🐌 Austin, TX Icrontian

    I blew my timeless coins on chests to get loot I could gear up with.

    Did I hear scenario farm? Because I think I heard scenario farm.

    Old raids are also a great way to farm fast valor. I ran Mogushan Vaults or whatever the first MoP raid tier was in about 10 minutes and got 90 valor.

    As LFR? Or did you have a group?

    Also the legendary questline will be a bit easier in the next patch overall. Double rep with Wrathion and increased drop chance for related boss drops.

    Increased berserk timer for Garrosh Hellscream to 25 minutes (up from 18 minutes) on Raid Finder difficulty.

    Looks like they did some stuff that might fuck with a lot of add-ons (DBM included)

  • RyderRyder Kalamazoo, Mi Icrontian

    VEM seems to be working for me.. ran a dungeon. Haven't tried raids yet.

  • ThraxThrax 🐌 Austin, TX Icrontian

    VEM is okay. Did Flex 1 and 2.

  • RyderRyder Kalamazoo, Mi Icrontian

    what was the outcome on valor?
