Rage of the Firelands PTR Notes: October 25th

Staff's Avatar by Staff

We have more changes to the Cata Classic PTR, this time related to the new difficulty rewards.

Protocol Inferno, the new optional Firelands raid difficulty, has received changes to its rewards. Specifically, the currency can now be used for more items, including Normal Tier 11 weapons, some Heroic pieces, and more. Some prices were also reduced and you can now also buy Justice Points from the vendor!


After discussing a great deal of player feedback, we’ve made several changes to the rewards from our first difficulty level, Protocol Inferno, which are now live on the PTR.

The new currency from Elemental Rune Dungeons, Fissure Stone Fragments, can now be used to also purchase:

  • Normal Tier 11 Weapons
  • All Tier 11 iLvl 372 Bracers
  • Heroic Fall of Mortality trinket
  • Heroic Essence of the Cyclone trinket
  • Heroic Theralion’s Mirror trinket

We have reduced the price of the following:

  • Normal Tier 11 Helm and Shoulders
  • Satchels of gear and mounts from Throne of the Four Winds

We have added a new item, Commendation of Service, which can be purchased with Fissure Stone Fragments and grants Justice Points.
