Comment by kodora1316The "complete 30 world quests" requirement is now 20 world quests. (Changed on my Druid and shaman alts.)Comment by thorr69minor, but for those leveling herbalism by farming the garrison garden, before this patch above level 100 you couldnt loot the guys that spawned sometimes. After patch you can again.Comment by SoeroahAlso new to the patch, DKs can Wraith Walk while dead. Found out on accident last night!Comment by PositveRoleModelMailboxes have been added to the Crumbling Palace in Aszuna and to Lorlathil in Val'sharah. Also the Dreamweavers Emissary, Sylvia Hartshorn is now the correct gender to match her name.Comment by perculiaJust a note on undocumented things!

The Reddit post, which we've mentioned a few times in the post, compiled a ton of things. Instead of reinventing the wheel and listing all that out again, we'd rather highlight some cool bits and link back to the source (like we do for comments/other posts for hidden appearances).

It's totally cool to share what you think are hidden things in the thread, but I just wanted to point out that it was a deliberate choice not to repost everything :)Comment by AlsonneSephuz's Secret no longer procs from Blinding Light on bosses and Avenger's Shield on stunnable mobs.
R.I.P. Sephuz's Secret for protpalas.Comment by SharplessI was just reading another undocumented change: Galakras in Siege of Orgrimmar can now be soloed, and will come down after being shot twice with the same cannon. A huge QoL improvement for avid transmog hunters =)Comment by sakeraanother change not mentioned.

enslave demon now only works on mobs up to level 109 instead of 110.https://twitter.com/WarcraftDevs/status/791110090191360001Comment by royalecheeseminor, but for those leveling herbalism by farming the garrison garden, before this patch above level 100 you couldnt loot the guys that spawned sometimes. After patch you can again.Comment by MeiluyThe Warrior missions are also faster - the last three are down to 8 hours. Many Druid-themed tunics are now robesComment by Arelmas1travel form is a saber mount not a mana saber while under masquerade in suramarComment by unclescrotor200Not sure if this was documented, but: As of the new patch whenever you are at an Archeological dig site and get close to an find (when the little dig meter blinks green), you will get an indication that your character 'is right on top of an artifact', via two notifications:
- A temporary status effect in the same area as your status buffs with the Archeology Icon
- A small shovel with a light above the player.

Basically, very smol but nice QoL improvement.Comment by SquirePip"Many Druid-themed tunics are now robes" D: I like them better when they're not robes :/Comment by AtiaensOne of the best undocumented changes is that you actually can now transmog epic pre-versions of legendaries - like the sulfuron hammer, shadows edge or the rogue daggers (these can be even transmogged on non-rogues like priests)Comment by AlkonyOne of the best undocumented changes is that you actually can now transmog epic pre-versions of legendaries - like the sulfuron hammer, shadows edge or the rogue daggers (these can be even transmogged on non-rogues like priests)Comment by NerrevarIt's amazing how there are still hidden things for us to find, I can't even imagine where they might be.Comment by LyssaWoWYou can also Solo Galakras from SoO now. As they made is so he's stunned longer so you can hit him with the same cannon twice. Which makes the fight extremely shorter and less tediousComment by 1695439This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by DavekoAnother change is that there is alot more spawn points for fish schools, like highmountain salmon and stormrays. Previously farming them was almost impossible because of their rarity.Comment by GreyMouser"As a thank you to our community we are having YOU, the readers, choose which topics you would like to be highlighted here on Wowhead!"
