Mount Models for The War Within - Fire Bees, Fireflies, Lynxes, Wild Unicorns

Warning: Spoilers for World of Warcraft: The War Within below.

The scarecrow-inspired transmog from The War Within has received some enhancements--a claw and back piece. Previously the set looked a bit autumnal, if benign, but with these additions the set takes on a darker fantasy vibe.

While most flying mounts can use Skyriding in The War Within, a handful don't currently have this feature available. We prepared a list showing every mount that cannot use Skyriding.

In the latest Alpha build, we've datamined an early preview of the Warlock Tier Set appearances coming in Season 1 of The War Within. Season 1 Tier Sets will be available from the Nerub'ar Palace Raid featuring eight bosses, culminating in a showdown with Queen Ansurek, the Nerubian ruler who's leading her people down a dark path. First Look at the Nerub'ar Palace Raid Tier Set bonuses are still unavailable to be datamined, but stay tuned for updates when they become available.

We've datamined some new mounts in today's War Within alpha build--Nerubian Beetles and Treasure Basilisks! For even more TWW mounts, check out last week's model datamining, including Wild Unicorns and Fireflies! War Within Alpha Mount Models

Players looking to tackle the toughest content in The War Within are likely all too familiar with the preparation needed for raids, PvP, and Mythic +. To fully unlock your potential, you aren't just running into an instance portal full speed into a pack of enemies — you're toting a full bag of consumables along with you to provide every edge possible. The War Within will be no different, offering players both new and more familiar consumables to work with: everything from enchantments to flasks and potions will be on a raider's To-Do list before that weekly lockout comes around.

In this post, we're taking a look at all the new «Earthen Dungeon» armor and weapon models in the War Within, presumably from the eight new expansion dungeons. Note that while the weapons come in many colors, the available armor tints are limited--we expect them to increase as the alpha progresses. The cloth set will also have a robe option in the future.

With datamining starting, we have our first look into the Gladiator Mounts of The War Within. The gladiator mounts are an armored version of other gargoyle mounts being added in The War Within and both are similar to Venthyr's covenant mounts, albeit with way more details.

We've datamined new armor models for a very scarecrow-inspired transmog — take a look! It is currently unknown what items these models link to, but they certainly give off farm and harvest vibes.

The War Within Alpha adds some elaborate cosmetic models, including Kobold Candle and Fungi helms. Notably there are 3-piece sets (shoulders, tabard, cloak) themed around some major factions in the expansion--check out those Kobold shoulders! Many of the cosmetic helms were also confirmed to be from delves at BlizzCon.

The War Within adds cosmetic armor styled after the garb Earthen civilians wear in Dornogal, the main city in Khaz Algar. While we don't know how to obtain this armor yet, we're reminded of the Valdrakken Civilian Sets from Dragonflight which were obtained through the Valdrakken Accord Faction. These Earthen sets have elaborate 3D components and as such, only load properly on Dwarven models--so these might be a limited race-specific reward, if they're ever made available to players. These models may also not be available at launch--if ever--as all the individual items like Earthen Mining Hat have the note «This appearance cannot be collected.» But they have many interesting details so we hope they are eventually!
