Blizzard's own posts that name 12.1.5, captured by our tracker. The reason an entry below exists is in these words, not ours; each is linked to the original.

Crafted Decor Cost Reduction in 12.1.5 We’ve been reviewing decor collection patterns, among other housing-related data, and based on that internal data (and player feedback as well!) we’re making a change in 12.1.5 that I’d like to highlight now that the patch release is right around the corner.

New mounts

The build adds 8 mounts. Where the client records how a mount is obtained (its source text names the vendor, drop, quest or achievement), that fact is printed as the game holds it; a mount without one is listed by name only.

The full list of 8 is in the Mounts table below.

New items

The build adds 498 items. Where the dungeon journal already lists an item as a drop, it is grouped under its instance: The Unbinding of Kith'ix (raid). Slot and binding come from the item record itself.

The remaining 458 are in the Items table below.

New spells and talent changes

The build adds 2,181 spells. Spell records are the noisiest family in a client build (every new item effect, aura and NPC ability is one), so the names below are examples and the true count is the number that matters. The talent tree data (trait node entries) shows 11 added and 0 changed entries in the same build.

All 2,181 are in the Spells table below.

New achievements

The build adds 55 achievements. Each line quotes the achievement's own description from the client, which is the criteria text a player sees.

All 55 are in the Achievements table below.

New maps and zones

The client's map and area tables gained 3 new map records (Silvermoon City, The Labyrinth of Kindo'jan and The Unbinding of Kith'ix) and 40 new area records (Akil'zon's Roost, Augurs' Terrace, Brightwing Estate and Central Chamber). A new map record is how a zone, instance or scenario first appears in the client, usually before any quest or encounter references it.

New creatures

The build adds 66 creatures to the creature table: the NPCs, bosses and critters the new content is built from. Spawn locations are server-side and are not in the client, so only the names are known.

All 66 are in the Creatures table below.

What to watch

For what is still coming in 12.1.5, Blizzard's own Midnight: 12.1.5 PTR Development Notes is the official list; the records above are what the client holds today and can change before the patch goes live.

How this page is built

Each World of Warcraft game build is compared field-by-field against the previous build of the same version line. Added, changed and removed records are read directly from the client database, not from patch notes. Prices shown are the game's own vendor values, formatted with live coin denominations; where a value is unknown it is left blank rather than guessed. Counts are the true totals for the build; where a heading reads "40 of 11,892" the rows under it are that many examples, and a record the client has not named yet is left out rather than printed as an id. A removed record is shown by name without a link, because the entry it pointed at is gone from the client. Every build lands in the patch news feed the day it is ingested.
