Site Improvements: Zones, Image Sorting, Item Enhancements, Page Browsing
2014 has just started and we've already got some site improvements in place we want to share! We've been tweaking some of our current tools these past few weeks to give you a more user-friendly experience here at Wowhead, ranging from image filters to a new way to browse search results.
For a complete list of site developments, check out our
What's New
page for more details.
Image Sorting
Our popular image galleries for transmog sets, battle pets, and Hearthhead cards can now be sorted! Click on the sort options at the top left of the gallery to check it out.
You can also always view these pages in their traditional layout by clicking on the "Text" tab above the Image Gallery. Items with 3D models also have a special image view--click on the "Gallery" tab to see this alternate view.
Improved Page Browsing
We've added an alternate way to browse search results on Wowhead. If you get a list of results back and don't want to keep returning to that page, you can simply click on an item and then move back and forth between results using the red arrow buttons at the top right. The Up button will take you

Warlords of Draenor Initial Toybox Details
The toybox is a new feature in Warlords of Draenor letting users
collect vanity items
and store them in a special account-wide collection to free up bag space. The toybox is one of many UI improvements in Warlords of Draenor, which also include a collection tab for heirlooms and no more quest items cluttering up bag space.
The Toybox is still in development but we have some initial questions answered today in a blue post from Rygarius:
Vanity items that are equipped, like
Burgy Blackheart's Handsome Hat
, may be converted into a spell so they can work in the toybox, so you can activate the effect without having to click on the item.
Archäologie
items will be included in the toybox tab.
Several rare items like
Sylvanas' Spieluhr
may still be character-specific if there's a need for it, but nothing is certain.
Quest items that people hold onto for fun, like
Erzmagier Vargoths Stab
, will be looked out for so they won't go away like other generic quest items.
Gear with fun effects is still up in the air--it's recommended not to delete anything you're unsure about.

PvP Season 15 Announced for Mists of Pandaria
PvP Designer Brian Holinka tweeted that
MoP is getting an additional arena season
, which has led to some speculation on Warlords of Draenor's launch date.
At the
BlizzCon fansite panel
, it was stated that no Patch 5.5 was planned, so if you don't love PvP, you could be in for a long stretch of no new content in Mists of Pandaria. This is a striking change from the very fast patches at the start of MoP and more in line with the long pre-expansion wait during Dragon Soul.
However, Blizzard could have some surprises in store like a mini-raid like Ruby Sanctum or quality-of-life patch like
Patch 5.4.2
with cross-realm mail and Flex raids.
Right now, we're several months into Season 14 and past PvP seasons have all
been over 20 weeks long
. Assuming Season 14 and Season 15 are on the short side, which is very optimistic, that

News Roundup: New Hotfixes, Trojan Update, WoW Item Squish and Old Content
Blizzard posted some updates to the
potential Trojan account threat
documented yesterday that attacked users that even had an authenticator.
It's also been said many times at this point, but Blizzard found it worthwhile to explain again that the ability to solo old raids is not going away in Warlords of Draenor with the item squish--while your stats may decrease, the boss abilities will scale down too.

Potential Trojan Account Threat, LFR, Flex, and the Group Finder in WoD
It's been slow over the holidays for Blizzard posts, but today we've got a discussion on LFR, Flex, and the new Group Finder tool in Warlords of Draenor. Many players dissatisfied by the impersonal and unchallenging aspects of LFR have since embraced Flex, which allows them to have meaningful progression with friends on a busy schedule.
Due to the success of Flex raiding, Blizzard is implementing a new Group Finder tool in Warlords of Draenor so people can find cross-realm groups for pretty much everything. The addition of the Group Finder tool may even lead to some LFR tuning changes--since raiders on a busy schedule will be drawn towards the Group Finder instead of LFR.
Edit: Blizzard Customer Support just posted an alert about a
Trojan virus that can compromise accounts even with an authenticator
. So far there is no easy way to remove it besides reformatting your system, but Blizzard has posted instructions on what to do if your account has been recently compromised.

Pop Culture Item References: Comics, Books, Music, and Poetry
Earlier this week, we took a look at
pop-culture references in WoW items
--movies, TV, and video games. Today we've got the remaining items covered--books, music, comics, and poetry! You'd be surprised how many poetry references there are, as nearly all Justice and Valor Point gear from Cataclysm's launch is a reference to poetry by Keats or Eliot.
There are many more references outside the scope of these item guides, such as NPCs, achievements, and quests. There's even a subset of items named after WoW players, like
Perculias seltsames Siegel
and
Hamlets windgepeitschte Gamaschen
. If you like these types of guides, we'll consider doing more.

Pop Culture Item References: Video Games, Movies, and TV
Blizzard loves putting little easter eggs and pop culture references in World of Warcraft, from Austin Powers (
Mr. Bigglesworth
) to
Zelda
(
Allein ist es gefährlich
) . This series of guides takes a look at all the cleverly-named items that are references to pop culture!
Since there's so many item references, we've broken it up into two guides. This guide covers the "pop" of pop culture--video games, movies, television, and other celebrities.
There are many more references and tributes outside the scope of this guide--items named after players, NPCs, achievements, and quests. If you like these types of posts, we'll consider doing more on references.

Editorial: Holiday Updates in Mists of Pandaria
Wowhead Editorials
We've been wanting to try out editorials on Wowhead for a while, and we're excited to publish our first one today! If you like it, we'll consider doing more.
Holiday Updates
As our guide comments show, Wowhead users feel passionate about holidays, so the timing seemed right to talk about why holiday updates are important, especially in light of the lack of updates in Mists of Pandaria.
Players are always so excited by new holiday vanity items, but regret that there's not more to do in Mists of Pandaria. Between account-wide changes letting people finish holidays faster and the lack of updates, big or small, players long for excitement associated with past holidays.
There would have been so many opportunities for holiday development in MoP too--like Pandaren-themed Brewfest content, or even a completely new holiday, as we joked about on April Fools with

Guild Guide: Reputation, Rewards, Perks, and Achievements
Guild reputation was added in Cataclysm as an incentive to promote guild loyalty and activity. There are unique perks, mounts, and pets that you can only get being part of a Guild too!
This guide covers how to gain reputation with a guild, how to level a guild up, achievements, perks for each guild level, and what reputation levels and achievements you need to unlock all the special guild rewards.
Guild Reputation
Guild reputation lets players purchase special rewards from
Guild Vendors

Guild Achievements

Guild reputation can be gained by turning in quests, killing PvE bosses in a guild group, or PvPing in a guild group.
In Mists of Pandaria, the weekly cap for guild reputation you can earn per week has been removed. Between this and the limit on daily quests being lifted, you can grind reputation out pretty quickly.

5.4.2 Hotfixes for December 17th, Hearthstone Patch 1.0.0.4243 Notes, Warcraft Film Update
Blizzard
just announced some more casting choices
for the upcoming film! Clancy Brown and Daniel Wu are joining the cast! WARCRAFT is scheduled to release March 11, 2016.
Players may find Brown's voice familiar as he was the voice of
Geißelfürst Tyrannus
. You may also remember him as Kurgan in
Highlander
and Captain Byron Hadley in
The Shawshank Redemption
.
There were some short but useful changes today for both WoW and Hearthstone!
Terrasse des Endlosen Frühlings
is now easier to queue for on LFR. You do not need to complete Heart of Fear before starting Terrace on LFR--all you need is ilvl 470. Previously, you could skip Heart of Fear on Normal mode.
Paragons of the Klaxxi have gotten several changes--notably melee damage is less spiky.
For Hearthstone, several cards were changed that utilize the
Freeze Mechanic
.
An Arena bug was fixed that prevented players from re-entering if they closed the client before obtaining their rewards.
