The updated Tempest Keep loot picture - Image 1  


Forget death touches. On the live servers, Blizzard wants you to do your own killing. It's a good thing for gaming sites like ours that some people are hardcore enough to kill the toughest baddies in the game, else we'd never be able to preview new loot for you guys.

In this case, World of Raids has compiled the spoils of victory from Tempest Keep, with these items being so new that they haven't even gone up on item databases such as WoWHead yet. With the exception of the Talon of Al'Ar, which is acquired by defeating Al'Ar the Phoenix God, the items below come from besting High Astromancer Solarian in battle.

That being said, you have to thank the guys and gals of the following guilds for being dedicated to downing big bosses: Blood Legion, Death and Taxes, Forte, For the Horde, Irae Aod, Last Resort, and Nihilum. They've done a great job with probing the depths of the game, and we thank them for being kind enough to inform the public about the sweet loot that's yet to come in the lives of many a raiding guild.


UPDATE:

There's new loot on the horizon for Al'ar and Solarian, so go have a look at the updated picture above for more information.

World of Warcraft's Arena 1 gear - Earthshaker set - Image 1There's been a lot of talk and speculation about the World of Warcraft's Arena Tournament season two gear. World of Raids was able to get a complete list of the set bonuses from WoWHead.

Basically the names of the Arena 2 gear are still the same as the first batch, just affix a prefix of Merciless Gladiator's (instead of just Gladiator). Some of the pieces grant the same bonuses and all class sets get +35 Resilience for two pieces. Here's the list:

Druid
  • Sanctuary: Increases your movement speed by 15% while in Bear, Cat, or Travel Form. Only active outdoors.
  • Refuge: Increases your movement speed by 15% while in Bear, Cat, or Travel Form. Only active outdoors.
  • Wildhide (Balance set): Reduces the mana cost of your Moonfire spell by 10% of its base cost.
Hunter
  • Pursuit: Reduces the cooldown of your Concussive Shot by 1 sec.
Mage
  • Regalia: Reduces the cooldown of your Blink spell by 2 sec.
Paladin
  • Redemption: Reduces the cooldown of your Hammer of Justice by 10 sec.
  • Aegis: Reduces the cooldown of your Hammer of Justice by 10 sec.
  • Vindication: Reduces the cooldown of your Hammer of Justice by 10 sec.
Priest
  • Investiture: Reduces the duration of the Weakened Soul effect caused by your Power Word: Shield by 2 sec.
  • Raiment: Reduces the duration of the Weakened Soul effect caused by your Power Word: Shield by 2 sec.
The rest of the sets after the jump!
