Tier 15 set bonuses unveiled in latest PTR patch

by Dawn Moore Jan 10th 2013 at 7:00PM

The latest build in development for the patch 5.2 PTR has brought us a first glimpse at the tentative set bonuses for tier 15. Wowhead released the datamined information yesterday evening and some of the set bonuses are mighty interesting. Take for example, the rogue two-piece bonus, which increases the duration of finishing moves as though the rogue had an additional combo point ... Up to a maximum of six points. The DPS death knight two-piece also sounds a bit interesting; check it out below.

Death knight

Blood two-piece Reduces the cooldown of your Rune Tap ability by 10 sec and removes its Rune cost.
Blood four-piece Your Bone Shield ability grants you 15 Runic Power each time one of its charges is consumed.
DPS two-piece Your attacks have a chance to raise the spirit of a fallen Zandalari as your Death Knight minion for 15 sec.
DPS four-piece Increases the duration of Army of the Dead by 15 sec.

by Michael Sacco Jan 2nd 2013 at 3:00PM

When Blizzard said that the PTR for patch 5.2 would be available early January, they really meant early January! The PTR is now available, with character copies and level 90 premades ready to go. Patch 5.2 will bring the Thunder King raid and a number of other additions, including:

A new daily quest hub: The Isle of the Thunder King -- the Kirin-Tor Offensive and the Sunreaver Onslaught face off to lay claim to Emperor Lei Shen's island stronghold and the treasures contained therein.
Two new world bosses, Nalak the Storm Lord and Oondasta
An option to purchase Sunsong Ranch to make it a resting point like an inn. Work orders will come in from various factions, and completing the work orders will grant you reputation with the issuing faction.
All world bosses are now Tap to Faction. This new system offers every eligible player of the same faction that engages a boss the chance to earn loot.
And more!
