News Roundup: More Warlords of Draenor Flying Information, Talk Azeroth, Molten Core Spotlight
Bashiok Provides More Information On Flying in Warlords
Community Manager Bashiok has again been waxing lyrical on the topic of flying in Warlords of Draenor. The TL;DR is as follows, but you can expand the box below to read his full post:
Flight paths will be far quicker and more efficient than they currently are.
Draenor is having max-level content zones, not just to level through but to quest through. The devs feel it's important that this content is enjoyed as it's meant to be by players, and that means from the ground.
They not intending to slow anyone down, and we’re going to make sure that players can get where they want to go efficiently through more direct flight points, and potentially
alternate travel methods

This probably should have been kept to the original thread, but caution to thee, wind, I say! (I say that.)
So everyone has seen various posts and comments around the World Wide Web about flying not being allowed in Draenor, why, and what that means. It’d probably be helpful to try to

News Roundup: Proving Grounds Silver Required for WoD Heroics, Talk Azeroth Episode 27
Early this morning, it was announced that Heroic Dungeons in Warlords of Draenor would require the completion of Silver Proving Grounds for your role (tank, healer, or dps) to queue up with randoms. This was hinted before in our
Patch 5.4 interview with Tom Chilton
. Keep in mind this is just for matchmaking groups--you don't need any medals to queue up with friends.
Proving Grounds will be retuned for level 100s in Warlords, and more attention will be paid to make sure tuning is even across the board for each spec. If you want to check out Proving Grounds now, check out our
guide to Proving Grounds with maps and strategies

Olivia is also back with another episode of Talk Azeroth, hitting all this week's news, and there's a lot to get through! She starts off with a discussion of the price for the level 90 boost, then moves into looking at the new character models. Next up it's some PvP talk, but PvE fans can skip ahead to 23:45 to get past it to a brief chat and a question about the new questing style introduced with WoD!

In the latest episode of Talk Azeroth, Olivia's giving away an Alterac Brew pup this week, as well as talking about the big news -- WoW only went and GAINED subscribers! We've also found out since the last show just when patch 5.4.7 is coming, and Olivia discusses the reasons for the sub bump as well as the impact of the upcoming patch and the buy-a-90.
She then gives out an Alterac Brew Pup and answer your questions, starting with our winner's question selected at random (11.24), then moving into a question about PvP seasons that really just relates to the release date (13.20). Next up, one about Battleground bots (16.10), and finally, we chat CRZ and the queue time issues that might arise in combination with server connections(19.47).

Flex Mode Scaling Changes, Talk Azeroth Episode 20

If you want to get in touch with Olivia, email her on olivia@zam.com
Flex Mode Scaling Changes
At BlizzCon, we'd discussed some improvements to our Flexible scaling system that would minimize the existence and impact of any real or perceived "breakpoints." Our design goal has always been for the system to be neutral with respect to group size. Specifically, you should never feel encouraged to turn away interested players whose skill/gear level matches the rest of the group's, basic role composition constraints notwithstanding. But at the same time, you shouldn't feel like you need to go out and grab warm bodies if you have a perfectly serviceable raid already assembled. Clearly we have not yet fully realized those goals.

most recent Blizzard Store items

Talk Azeroth: Episode 11, Battlefield Barrens and Eternally In The Vale Removed in 5.4
Today's newspost is about prepping for 5.4--things you should be stockpiling for the patch, as well as things you might want to get done before they're removed!
Talk Azeroth
This week Olivia's taking you on a voyage into patch 5.4 as we recently found out when it was going live on servers. She tells you just exactly what you ought to be thinking of stockpiling and what you ought to be spending, and theorizing on reasons why there might not be a Valor reset with the patch.
The main topic she wants to talk to you about this week, though, is heirlooms. Olivia's got a wacky theory she wants to share on just how the personal loot system might interact with these new heirlooms.
Then she moves onto loot equality, trying to reassure LFR-only raiders that things will turn out OK, while also waxing lyrical on the reasons why these items should and shouldn't be in LFR in the first place.
