{{Elinks-item|37368}}
   
  +
[[Category:Utgarde Pinnacle items]]
Stamina - Due to the assigning of Strength, Agility, and Intellect, non-plate wearers have more Stamina than before. Health pools are now much closer between plate-wearers and other classes.
 
  +
[[Category:World of Warcraft rare items]]
 
  +
[[Category:World of Warcraft leather shoulder items]]
Spirit - This stat should only be found on healing gear. Non-healing casters have other systems in place to regenerate mana.
 
  +
[[Category:World of Warcraft socketed items]]
 
Intellect - Intellect now grants Spell Power and increases your Critical Strike chance with spells.
 
 
Haste - Haste should now be more attractive for melee classes by allowing them to recover resources such as rage, energy, and runes more quickly. Our intention is for Haste to let you "do stuff" more often.
 
 
Parry - Parry provides the same avoidance as Dodge, and you'll receive a percentage of your strength as Parry Rating.
 
 
Mastery - This is a new stat that will allow players to become better at whatever makes their chosen talent tree cool or unique. It's directly tied to talents, so what you gain from improving this stat is entirely dependent upon your class and the talent specialization you choose. We’ll talk more about specific Mastery benefits in the future.
 
 
Armor - The amount of bonus Armor received per stat point on items has been drastically reduced, and Armor is no longer given by Agility. In addition, Armor now better mitigates differences among Armor types so that protection from mail, leather, and cloth is much closer to that of plate.
 
 
Resilience - This now only affects damage done by players and their pets. It will not impact crit chance, crit damage, mana drains, or other such effects.
 
 
 
<u>Removed From Items</u>
 
 
Attack Power - This stat is rarely present on items, although it is derived from other stats. Strength and Agility, which are present on items, grant the appropriate amount of Attack Power (generally 2 Attack Power per point of Strength or Agility) depending upon which stat a particular class favors.
 
 
Block Rating - Block has been redesigned to scale better. Blocked attacks will simply hit for 30% less damage. Block Rating is no longer given out directly as a stat. Instead, Mastery for Protection paladins and Protection warriors increases the chance to block.
 
 
Spell Power - Spell Power is no longer present on most items. Instead, as mentioned above, Intellect now grants Spell Power. One exception is that caster weapons still have Spell Power. This allows us to make weapons proportionately more powerful for casters in the same way they are for melee classes.
 
 
Armor Penetration - This stat is no longer present on items. Armor Penetration still exists in talents and abilities.
 
 
Shield Block Value - There are some effects that increase the Block value by a percentage, but this does not exist as a stat.
 
 
 
<u>Removed From the Game</u>
 
 
MP5 - This stat no longer exists in the game. Holy paladins and Restoration shaman have been redesigned to benefit from Spirit.
 
 
Defense - Defense is now removed from the game. Tanking classes will become uncrittable versus creatures by shifting into Defensive Stance, Blood Presence, or Bear Form, or by using Righteous Fury.
 
 
Spell Ranks - Spell ranks now cease to exist. All spells have one rank and will scale appropriately by caster level. The levels at which you can learn certain spells have been changed in order to fill in some of the gaps, and there are many new spells to learn along the way as well.
 
 
Weapon Skill - This stat will be removed from the game completely. Classes will start with all the weapon skills they need to know and will not need to improve them.
 
 
 
<u>What Else You Should Know</u>
 
 
Combat ratings - Ratings are much harder to "cap out" at maximum gear levels. Ratings are steeper in Cataclysm, and creatures in later tiers of content will be harder to hit or crit, similar to how level-83 mobs are harder to hit or crit than level-80 mobs.
 
 
Reforging - This new itemization customization feature allows you to partially change the stats on an item. You can reduce the value of an existing stat on an item, and add an equivalent amount of another stat that was not already present on the item. This makes it far easier to reach important thresholds like the Hit Rating and Expertise Rating caps.
 
 
}}
 
 
== Player Versus Player ==
 
* [[Battleground]]s will no longer close when both sides are below the minimum player requirement.
 
 
== Achievements ==
 
* New Feat of Strength added: {{achievement|Friends In Even Higher Places}}.
 
* {{Achievement|Master of Arms}} and {{Achievement|Did Somebody Order a Knuckle Sandwich?}} converted to Feat of Strength.
 
* In Dungeons & Raids section of achievements all Lich King Heroics have been put to Lich King Dungeon tab.
 
 
== Talents ==
 
* A total of 36 points at level 80 (down from 71).
 
* Each tree only requires 31 points to reach the last tier (down from 41).
 
* You must now select only one tree. Once you do, you are given a primary ability for that spec, and two or three attributes specific for that spec. At level 80, you are given a [[Mastery]] trait also specific for the spec you chose, learned at your trainer.
 
* You cannot put points into any other tree until you have put 31 into your first tree.
 
==Experience==
 
The experience needed to level from 1-40 have been reduced by a significant amount.
 
 
== Classes ==
 
{{main|Patch 4.0.1 (class changes)}}
 
* The price of dual specialization is reduced from 1000 gold to 100 gold.
 
* [[Health regeneration]] uses a new formula. Outside of combat, all classes seem to regenerate 0.75% of their maximum health per second before the effects of abilities.
 
* [[Mana regeneration]] uses a new formula.
 
* Class [[buffs]] can no longer be applied to player-controlled [[pets]].
 
* Class buffs and their raid-wide counterparts have been consolidated into a single spell. When the target of the buff is within your party or raid (including yourself), the buff applies to the entire raid. Reagents are no longer required for these abilities.
 
 
==Mounts==
 
* All mounts now scale with riding skill - level 20 60% mounts will now move at 100% speed with epic riding.
 
* The [[X-53 Touring Rocket]] can now also be used as a ground mount.
 
* Players can now instantly transition in Dalaran with mounts that have both a ground and flying speed without remounting.
 
* If a player upgrades the riding skill while riding a mount that can scale to the new skill, it is applied instantly. For example, learning Expert Riding in Outland while riding a [[Celestial Steed]] immediately enables flying without remounting.
 
 
==Dungeons==
 
* Though not displayed in the Dungeon Finder Interface Screen, completing a Random Lich King Heroic Dungeon using the Dungeon Finder will award 23 [[Justice Point|Justice Points]], in addition to the 16 [[Justice Point|Justice Points]] earned for each boss killed.
 
* Completing a weekly raid quest will be rewarded with 137 Justice Points.
 
 
==Professions==
 
* [[Herbalism]] and [[Mining]] give [[XP]]. The higher level the char is, the lower the received XP will be. This uses rest XP so you will get double XP while you have sufficient rest stored up.
 
* Tiffany Cartier no longer exchanges Titanium Powder for Dalaran Jewelcrafter's Tokens; you now turn them in at Timothy Jones via a repeatable quest.
 
* Master [[Riding]] is available from Northrend [[Riding trainers]] at a cost of {{cost|5000}}, allowing all flying mounts to scale to 310% speed. Characters that already had a 310% speed flying mount pre-4.0.1 are given this skill automatically and free of charge. ''Note that reputation discounts apply to the trainers in the Northrend starting areas!''
 
** The exception is the the {{loot|epic|Reins of the Violet Proto-Drake}} from the [[meta-achievement|meta]] [[World Events achievements|world events achievement]] {{achievement|What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been}}. While still technically a 280% mount due to Patch 4.0.1, this mount will award 310% speed to characters who do not have it for free, due to a hotfix.
 
** The speed of nearly all mounts scales with riding skill. Exceptions include the [[Sea Turtle (mount)]] mount.
 
* [[Cold Weather Flying]] is now available to all characters at level 68 for {{cost|500}}.
 
* [[Flexweave Underlay]], [[Springy Arachnoweave]], and [[Nitro Boosts]] no longer increase spell power, agility, and crit rating respectively, but can now be used alongside other enchants.
 
* [[Leatherworking]] Specializations have been removed
 
* [[Tailoring]] Specializations have been removed; specialty cloth is now always made in single units.
 
* There is now just one kind and tier of [[Vellum]]. Old Weapon and Armor Vellums are converted to a [[Ruined Vellum]], which can be used to create the new all-purpose [[Enchanting Vellum]].
 
* [[Alchemy]] [[Transmute]] cooldowns have been redesigned. Completing the transmute will now cause a cooldown that is fixed to reset at 00:00 server time, limiting you to one cooldown per day.
 
* Many profession trainers in capitals now train professions up to Grand Master.
 
 
==Items==
 
* Some former Guardian Elixirs are now Battle Elixirs.
 
* The effect of most scrolls are now considered Battle Elixirs, and will overwrite existing Battle Elixirs. The effect of scrolls of stamina and protection are considered Guardian Elixirs.
 
* Most books that formerly taught class spells are now poor-quality items with no function. Exceptions include {{item|Tome of Dalaran Brilliance}} and {{item|Tome of Polymorph: Black Cat}}.
 
* {{loot|heirloom|Tome of Cold Weather Flight}} has been removed.
 
* Some glyph items have been replaced with {{item|Charred Glyph}}s, non-functional, poor-quality items.
 
* Some glyphs have been replaced or renamed.
 
* Numerous item stat changes:
 
** [[Armor Penetration Rating]], [[Block Rating]] and [[Defense Rating]] have been replaced with other stats.
 
** [[MP5]] has been replaced with [[spirit]].
 
** [[Spell power]] on most non-weapon equipment has been replaced with [[intellect]].
 
* Wrathful Gladiator gear, with the exception of shoulders and T2 weapons and the tabard, can be purchased for honour, with no Battleground or Arena rating required (although the tooltip says that it is requires)
 
* [[Pristine Black Diamond]] now has a sell price of 50s
 
* [[Drums of the Wild]] have changed from a [[Gift of the Wild]] buff to a health and mana regeneration buff.
 
* {{Loot|uncommon|Cache of the Ley-Guardian}} now contains 32 Justice Points instead of 2 Emblems of Triumph.
 
* [[Relic]]s now have stats rather than modifying certain class abilities.
 
* Some relics now have sockets. (This includes old-world relics that predated the [[Jewelcrafting]] profession.)
 
* Several changes were made to gems, mainly hit rating, intellect, and dodge rating moved to blue, red, and yellow (previously yellow, yellow, and red) respectively.
 
* {{loot|rare|MOLL-E}} now binds when used.
 
 
==Quests==
 
* <s>The [[Horde]] and [[Alliance]] versions of the pre-''Cataclysm'' event quest chain are now available, starting with [[Earthen Ring]] emissaries in faction capitals.</s>
 
* If you must kill a mob or talk to an NPC, the name of the mob will be visible over their head regardless of user settings. User setting will return once quest is completed.
 
* {{Questlong|Neutral|70|Spirits of Auchindoun}} no longer grants any bonus honor.
 
* The {{Questlong|Neutral|70|Morthis Whisperwing}} quest chain for druid [[Swift Flight Form]] completely removed. <s>You can't get [[Essence-Infused Moonstone]] anymore. According to a GM, it's possible to summon [[Anzu]] without it, but it isn't true at the moment.</s> After a hotfix, you don't need [[Essence-Infused Moonstone]] to summon [[Anzu]] anymore. He's a default boss in Heroic [[Sethekk Halls]] from now.
 
* {{Questlong|Horde|10|Cleanup on Isle E.}} has replaced {{questlong|Horde|10|Zalazane}}.
 
* Some quests previously offered by [[Thrall]] are now offered by Garrosh Hellscream.
 
* {{Questlong|Horde|62|Messenger to Thrall}} and {{Questlong|Horde|63|Envoy to the Mag'har}} have been removed.
 
* Several quests in Nagrand have been reduced in order to complete, such as the Beast killing quests; and of course the poop quest too.
 
 
==Reputation==
 
* The [[Gnomeregan Exiles]] faction has been renamed to [[Gnomeregan (faction)|Gnomeregan]].
 
* The most current factions are now listed at the top of the Reputation window. For example, a level 80 character in Northrend will have WotLK rep first, then BC, then Classic factions.
 
 
==User interface==

* Buttons for popup windows (talents, PvP, dungeon finder, etc.) now display the level at which they become available.
 
* The graphics settings window has been revamped.
 
* Zone names displayed when moving between zones are now closer to the top of the screen.
 
* On the border of the [[Minimap]] a yellow arrow points to the closest quest area. In the Objectives frame the number of that quest has a yellow (instead brown) background.
 
* While dead a red arrow points in the direction of your corpse on the border of the [[Minimap]].
 
* While dead there is a return to Graveyard button at the top of user screen.
 
* If [[quest item]]s can be looted, they will be displayed with a yellow border in the [[Loot#Looting_while_solo|loot window]].<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3K9kFgI4FqY&feature=player_embedded</ref>
 
* You can now activate multiple tracking abilities (Class Trainer, Auctioneer, Mailbox, etc.) including NPC and multiple profession tracking (Track Humanoids, Find Minerals, etc.) simultaneously and the minimap uses appropriate icons to distinguish them from each other; however, it still uses generic yellow dots for [[Find Minerals]], [[Find Herbs]], and [[Find Fish]].
 
* Mounts and companion pets have been moved to the spellbook.
 
* Tooltips of mobs and objects displays quest progression of partymembers when in a party and the quest has been shared.

* The [[Kalu'ak]] boat crew now have their voices follow them around when they speak.
 
* Gryphons (the Alliance flight path type) now have their voice remain stationary.
 
* All guards and NPC participants at the Tourney now frequently beat their mounts resulting in much noise.
 
* Consolidate Buffs is now the default setting and has been turned on for you in your preferences. You can turn it back off of course.
 
* A throttle has been added to all public chat channels, limiting players to two messages every few seconds. Players will receive an error message instructing them to wait before <s>spamming</s> sending additional chat in that channel. Other forms of chat (such as Say, Party, Yell, and Guild) remain unchanged.
 
* Links can now be used in all chat channels.
 
* Updated generic portraits are used for Night Elf and Gnome party/raid members who are out of visual range.
