The Zul'Gurub trinkets are a family of [[trinket]]s which are available exclusively in [[Zul'Gurub]]. They are not the only trinkets one can acquire within that zone, but they are unique in that each is a part of an [[epic]] class-specific equipment [[set]]. These trinkets have diverse effects, but all of them provide short-term bonuses. They are therefore most useful for PvP combat.

==Classes==

|}
  
  +
===General===
  +
*Permanent pets no longer despawn when mounting and riding on the ground, but despawn when the player takes flight. In addition, the last used hunter pet will always be shown on the login screen even if not at the master's side when the player logged out (possibly intended for at least warlocks as well, but not working).
   
−
== Acquisition ==
 +
====Druid====
  +
*[[Prowl]] now once again begins its cooldown once the druid leaves Prowl. (Note: for rogues' Stealth, this is indeed in the patchnotes, but not for Prowl).
−
The Zul'Gurub trinkets are acquired by combining a particular type of [[punctured voodoo doll]] (as appropriate for their class) with all 4 animal token drops from the [[Edge of Madness]] event. This event is complicated and can be expensive to trigger, but has the benefit of being fairly reliable.
  
  +
*Balance druids can now move change the direction of their [[Eclipse]] meter when starting fresh (either from zoning in, or having recently died) up until they reach their first Eclipse state, at which point the eclipse meter will only move in a single direction. [[Starsurge]] will continue to select the most advantageous Eclipse, but will always prefer Solar over Lunar when starting from exactly 0 energy.
   
  +
====Hunter====
−
As mentioned, each trinket is a piece of a class-specific set which is available only in Zul'Gurub. These trinkets are unique in that they are the only piece of these sets which have no faction requirement; indeed, the player need not even visit [[Yojamba Island]]. All the player must do is acquire the relevant components and then use the doll; the doll and components are consumed and produce the trinket.
  
  +
*The initial cast of [[Misdirection]] now produces a healing sound.
   
−
== Usage ==
 +
====Paladin====
  +
*[[Rebuke]] will now cause the character to perform the uppercut-animation instead of the kick-animation.<ref>http://www.wowhead.com/spell=96231#comments:40</ref>
−
{{Outdated}}
  
−
The Zul'Gurub trinkets vary substantially from class to class, but all of them have two things in common: their effects are short-lived, and their cooldown is a mere 3 minutes. These trinkets provide their bonuses in bursts, which makes them very ineffective when fighting elite monsters, but strong in player versus player combat. However, because of the short duration of their effects, it can be challenging to use them well. Therefore, these trinkets are best employed as a part of a [[macro]] which will also use the appropriate abilities.
  
   
−
=== Warrior and Rogue ===
 +
====Priest====
  +
*[[Divine Aegis]] now uses the same spell effect as [[Power Word: Shield]].
−
The warrior and rogue trinkets are both the easiest and the hardest to use. The trinkets' uses are obvious, but actually performing these combinations is challenging without a macro.
  
  +
*[[Chakra]] has a new icon.
   
  +
====Warlock====
−
Both trinkets provide their user with one or more "free" special attacks. The rogue's backstab ability costs 60 energy, and this trinket supplies 60 energy; this trinket therefore can grant a rogue an additional backstab at any time. Similarly, the warrior's high-end talent attacks - [[Mortal Strike]], [[Shield Slam]], and [[Bloodthirst]] - all require 30 rage to use, exactly the amount granted by the warrior trinket. Of course, rogues and warriors can also use this free energy/rage for combinations of other abilities.
  
  +
*Soul Shards no longer disappear if [[Mass Resurrection]] is cast and accepted after the warlock has released.
  +
*[[Rain of Fire]] has a new spell effect.
   
  +
==Dungeons & Raids==
−
The warrior trinket is slightly more forgiving than the rogue one - a warrior in combat will retain any rage he gains until he leaves combat, but the benefit provided by the rogue trinket must be used within 6 seconds at most before its benefit begins to be lost. In both cases, the player would be well-advised to use their trinket by way of a macro to ensure that the trinket is not used when it would exceed the player's maximum capacity for rage or energy. Rogues might be well-served to take advantage of the fact that trinkets and spells can be used immediately after each other. A macro which uses the trinket, then uses a spell which will consume the trinket's bonus, will ensure that it is used fully every time.
  
  +
===[[Molten Core]]===
  +
* Ancient Core Hounds have been renamed [[Core Hound]]s.
  +
* The [[Core Hound Pack|Core Hounds]] in the packs before [[Magmadar]] have grown much larger.
   
  +
==Player Versus Player==
−
==== Example rogue macro ====
  
  +
*Reputation earned in [[Arathi Basin]] is now earned for every 260 resources (250 during Call to Arms), up from 160/150.
−
/script if (UnitMana("player")<=40) then UseInventoryItem(GetInventorySlotInfo("Trinket1Slot")); end
  
  +
*If you are not flagged for PvP and you buff a player who is flagged, you stay unflagged.
−
/cast Backstab(Rank 8)
  
−
This macro casts backstab. If the player's energy is low, then the macro will use the trinket just beforehand. This macro requires that the player have his Zul'Gurub trinket equipped in his second trinket slot.
  
   
−
=== Hunter ===
 +
==Items==
  +
*Crafted gems now stack.
−
The hunter trinket is especially difficult to use. It clears the cooldown of four different hunter abilities, but two of these abilities already have a 6 second cooldown (arcane and aimed shot), and a third has a ten second cooldown (multi-shot). In addition, the cooldowns on aimed and arcane shot are linked; using one applies a 6 second cooldown to both of them, so they cannot be used in tandem. Resetting cooldowns on these spells would seem to be relatively trivial. However, arcane/aimed shot and multi-shot are the primary direct-damage spells used by hunters; the ability to reset their cooldowns allows the hunter to use each one twice in quick succession. A hunter can fire arcane shot, then multi-shot, then activate his trinket and cast each spell again immediately. This entire sequence will take between 4 and 5 seconds, and can be performed while the hunter is running (though he will need to pause for each multi-shot). If a hunter has access to aimed shot, he can substitute that for arcane shot; this extends the sequence to 8 or 9 seconds, and requires the hunter to remain in one place, but delivers far more damage.
  
  +
*[[Horde Balloon]] and [[Alliance Balloon]] companion pets have been added to the game. Speak with {{npc||Jaga}} in the [[Valley of Wisdom]], [[Orgrimmar]] or {{npc||Vin}} in [[Cathedral Square]], [[Stormwind]] to start the quest, {{quest|Blown Away}} to obtain them.
−
EDIT: As of a New Patch Arcane and Aimed no longer share the same Cooldown, Thus you can get far more damage out of this!
  
  +
*[[Winged Guardian]] now has a unique icon.
  +
*The MiniZep created by [[MiniZep Controller]] can no longer fly in areas where flight is restricted, such as battlegrounds and dungeons. It can still fly in areas that allow flight, even if the controlling player has not learned the appropriate flight skill for the area. MiniZeps that cannot fly can still jump.
  +
*New Vicious Gladiator Season 10 gear, i371, has been added as of the start date of arena season 10 on July 5th, 2011. The new gear has increased statistics to maintain the alignment between conquest purchases, Ruthless Gladiator i384, and honor purchases, the new Vicious Gladiator Season 10 i371.
  +
**The undocumented change was questioned by many who spent honor and gold (for gems, enchants, and reforging) and would have saved for an additional week had they known of the changes. Blizzard has not yet determined if or how to compensate for this change.
  +
*[[Mature Spore Sac]] is now Bind of Pickup and can no longer be sold or traded.
   
  +
==Professions==
−
=== Druid and Priest ===
  
  +
===Cooking===
−
These two trinkets are nearly identical; each one reduces the casting time of their class's largest heal spell by 40%, and reduces the mana cost of all healing spells by 5%. This effect lasts only 15 seconds, and thus the trinkets are most effective when a single player is taking intense damage, and can therefore utilize all the healing being applied. The trinkets can also allow rapid healing of an entire party, but some method of rapidly switching targets would be needed to get the most out of the time spent.
  
  +
* The ability to make [[Sporeling Snack]]<nowiki></nowiki>s has been removed from the game, and [[Recipe: Sporeling Snack]] in a player's inventory has been changed into a [[Ruined Recipe]], a gray quality item. Existing Sporeling Snacks in an inventory have also become gray items with no use, and their flavor text have changed from "Pets love sporeling snacks!" to "Pets hate sporeling snacks!"
  +
* [[Kibler's Bits]] has been changed to just make your pet larger for 5 min, from previously increasing your pet's [[happiness]] (the happiness-system was removed in 4.1).
  +
* Items purchased with [[Chef's Award]] have been added to Cooking Supplies vendors in Darnassus, Ironforge, Thunder Bluff and Undercity (previously limited to Stormwind City and Orgrimmar).
  +
* [[Recipe: Dig Rat Stew]] and [[Recipe: Undermine Clam Chowder]] have been reimplemented with new sources.
   
  +
===Jewelcrafting===
−
=== Paladin, Mage, and Warlock ===
  
  +
* [[Fire Prism]] has been moved to the Consumables tab in the Jewelcrafting skill pane.
−
These trinkets are not at all identical, but very similar; each increases the damage output of a particular category of spells.
  
  +
===Mining===
−
* In the paladin's case, this would be all spells, healing included. Since paladins have so few attack spells, and none which can be used repeatedly or rapidly, this trinket may be more effective when used for a quick burst of healing, like a druid or priest trinket.
  
  +
* The skill required to [[Mining|mine]] and [[Smelting|smelt]] ore has been reduced for most vanilla ores (i.e. [[tin]] through [[thorium]]).
−
* The mage trinket enhances arcane spell criticals, but mages have only two arcane spells which are capable of critical effects: arcane missiles and arcane explosion. In either case, simply recasting the spell rapidly should be sufficient to use this trinket's effect fully.
  
−
* The warlock's trinket improves more of his spells than the mage's does, but most of his spells have a casting time. Warlocks may find that the easiest way to fully exploit their trinket is by casting shadow bolt repeatedly. If a warlock has the improved shadow bolt talent, they may wish to use the trinket after a natural critical in order to get the most out of the critical damage buff. Shadow burn may also improve damage.
  
   
−
=== Shaman ===
 +
==World Environment==
  +
* Portals to Orgrimmar and Stormwind have been added outside the [[Nordrassil Inn]] in [[Mount Hyjal]].
−
The shaman trinket is the most unique of all the Zul'Gurub trinkets - it is the only one whose effects do not require direct action to utilize. The shaman need only get several enemies to attack him, then use his lightning shield and this trinket. The shaman may need to recast his lightning shield several times over the trinket's 20 second duration, but the effects should be thoroughly satisfying.
  
  +
* The red glow at the top of the castle towers in [[Stormwind City]] doesn't glow as much as it used to, and the wood texture of the castle tower has a newer look to it.
  +
** The mini-map in this area also has had some refinements, including orange for the castle towers.
  +
* A new pub, [[The Shady Lady]] has been added to Stormwind's [[Dwarven District]]. Because really, you can never have too many of those.
  +
** {{npc||Quincy Cutler}}, the owner and proprietor of the Shady Lady, now sells off-hand wine glasses that could previously only be found in [[Dalaran]]. And yet, somehow he could only afford to buy the top half of his outfit.
  +
* The alley itself of [[Cut-Throat Alley]] is no longer part of the Cut-Throat Alley subzone, which now only encompasses the empty two-story building within it.
  +
* All the [[molten giant]]s (such as [[Molten Destroyer]]s, [[Molten Giant]]s (mob) and [[Golemagg the Incinerator]]) have had their model updated.
  +
* The [[Ruins of Lordaeron]] has been populated with NPCs: [[Undercity Citizen]]s, [[Kor'kron Overseer]]s, [[Apothecary Initiate]]s and [[Forsaken Apothecary|Forsaken Apothecaries]].
  +
* Some Hero's Call! and similar breadcrumb quests automatically unlock the flight paths for the destination quest hub.
  +
* The [[fishing pool]]s at [[Schnottz's Landing]] are no longer affected by [[phasing]] and can now be seen by any player within the subzone (the phasing would previously cause the pools to turn invisible to players who hadn't completed the necessary quests). The [[Shrine of Goldrinn]] is however still suffering from this problem (herbs inside the zone turn invisible to some players when they enter it), implying that Schnottz's Landing was merely a location change, and not a phasing-mechanics change.
  +
  +
== User Interface ==
  +
* Added a Battle.net icon in the Social Pane.
  +
* Flight Points
  +
** The map's Flight Point icon has slightly changed to make them stand out a little better.
  +
** Missing Flight Point icons has been added in the game map to multiple locations including [[Azure Watch]], [[Blood Watch]], [[Exodar]], [[Booty Bay]], [[Karnum's Glade]], [[Nethergarde Keep]], [[Flamestar Post]], [[Shattered Sun Staging Area]], [[Theramore Isle]], [[Menethil Harbor]], [[Zul'Aman]], and all [[Outland]] and [[Northrend]] zones.
  +
** Flight Point icons which were previously shown as neutral where there were individual flight masters for each faction (such as [[Cenarion Hold]] and [[Gadgetzan]]) has been changed to the faction-colored Flight Point icon.
  +
** Alliance/Neutral Flight Point icons have been slightly realigned in many locations including [[Blackfathom Camp]], [[Dolanaar]], [[Rut'theran Village]], [[Windshear Hold]] and [[Wildheart Point]].
  +
** Flight Plan icons not for your faction no longer display on the map.
  +
** A new flight point has been added at the [[Sanctuary of Malorne]].
  +
** Added Swim Point icons and Flight Point icon in [[Vashj'ir]].
  +
** Re-added Flight Point icon in [[Badlands]].
  +
* Stormwind's banner on the Elwynn Forest and Stormwind City maps has had a slight text cleanup.
  +
* The location of the Track Quest check-box on the map has moved slightly to the right.
  +
* There is a new sound effect for changing talent specialization.
  +
* The Blizzard raid frames now show an icon on a dead character who is being resurrected.
  +
* Added a map of Black Temple.
  +
* Full-grown dragons, such as {{NPC||Vaelastrasz the Corrupt}} have new portraits.
  +
  +
== Bug Fixes ==
  +
* {{NPC||Venture Co. Lookout}}s, {{npc||Master Elemental Shaper Krixix}}, and {{NPC||Mad Magglish}} no longer have death knight eyes.

The Shrine of Goldrinn is however still suffering from this problem (herbs inside the zone turn invisible to some players when they enter it), implying that Schnottz's Landing was merely a location change, and not a phasing-mechanics change.
