Wrath lockboxes appear in Karazhan

We did a run through Karazhan last night, and not one but two of these popped up -- Froststeel Lockboxes apparently require 375 Lockpicking (the current limit is 350), and so we have no idea what this might hold. The Ashbringer? Frostmourne? It's Wrath gear for sure, but it could be anything!No, only joking -- of course it's probably just some Northrend green vendor trash (although item level 73... that might be pretty good). Too bad we won't know until someone hits level 75, as lockpicking's general skill formula is five times whatever your level is. But apparently the last patch added at least some higher level loot to the world drop tables -- any of you seen any Wrath greens or other gear randomly drop yet?

I had one drop in a run through either H Sethek Halls or H Ramps, cant remember which

I got a random drop of this while doing my daily quest. Guess it's not limited to instances.

Since the latest patch, you can buy wrathfood and drinks, too.

Brings back memories of people flooding into the Caverns of Time to get lvl 60 food and water pre BC :)

Yes i've seen The Ashbringer dropping from the wolves near Stormwind :)

No Wrath drops on my part, but I saw that they have changed the Revantusk-trolls into the same models as the Zul'Aman trolls.

Had one of those in Kara last night as well; guess they're going to be clogging up bank space for a while!

I had one of these drop last night on my old friend the Emissary of Hate right before I stuck a big flag in his behind.

We had one drop in H Blood Furnace last night, we were all amazed. I also found the Tundra Berries in Org that restore 13200 health, and some other food that requires level 75... I forget what that one was called. It's pretty cool to see some of the Wrath items already implemented.

Wait, where in Org is the Food Vendor that sells the LK food? I don't see the Innkeeper selling any...

The Stranglethorn fruit place in Org sells the new Berries.

Pre BC patches were also funny.
We had some shaman loots while being in Alliance (and paladin for horde) without draenei/BE implemented :)

Blacksmiths will be able to make new skeleton keys when Wrath comes out, so we may not have to wait for a rogue to hit 75.

Finally! It made no sense whatsoever to not have any new skeleton keys from blacksmithing in TBC for khorium lockboxes or the Shattered halls door before the first boss which was only limited to rogues and engineering seaforium

Atlas allows me too link the WotLK legacy items, tier 7 and badge gear and faction gear etc.
So they have already implented these items i think.

yah ive been running all the old school raids, and we've come across alot of "Ebonhold of ' greens
Gritiron Oct 18th 2008 12:54PM
You guys tried an elemental seaforium charge on that box? They have always been a bit overpowered for opening boxes.

Got two of these doing dailies today in Skettis.
