New mounts
The build adds 5 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.
- Cerulean Prideclaw (Trading Card Game). A fierce and loyal mount that will accompany you on all your journeys.
- Veteran Adventurer's Loyal Companion (Trading Card Game). When it is time to answer the call to adventure, this bear will be ready to take you there.
The full list of 5 is in the Mounts table below.
New items
The build adds 73 items. Slot and binding come from the item record itself.
- waist items: Al'Aketh Zealot's Belt (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Magister's Belt (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Peacekeeper's Belt (epic, bind on pickup)
- feet items: Al'Aketh Zealot's Boots (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Magister's Boots (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Peacekeeper's Boots (epic, bind on pickup)
- back items: Al'Aketh Zealot's Cloak (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Magister's Cloak (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Peacekeeper's Cloak (epic, bind on pickup)
- hands items: Al'Aketh Zealot's Gloves (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Magister's Gloves (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Peacekeeper's Gloves (epic, bind on pickup)
- head items: Al'Aketh Zealot's Helm (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Magister's Helm (epic, bind on pickup); Shen'dorei Peacekeeper's Helm (epic, bind on pickup)
The remaining 33 are in the Items table below.
New spells and talent changes
The build adds 143 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.
All 143 are in the Spells table below.
New achievements
The build adds 9 achievements. Each line quotes the achievement's own description from the client, which is the criteria text a player sees.
- BlizzCon 2026: Logged in during the 2026 BlizzCon celebration period.
- Drustvar Choc-O-Drop Designer: Complete all 3 candy quests from a Drustvar themed neighborhood.
- Duskwood Caramel Crafter: Complete all 3 candy quests from a Duskwood themed neighborhood.
- Felwood Fudge Bite Former: Complete all 3 candy quests from a Felwood themed neighborhood.
- Heroic: Kith'ix Guild Run: Defeat Kith'ix in The Unbinding of Kith'ix on Heroic difficulty or higher while in a guild group.
- Kith'ix Guild Run: Defeat Kith'ix in The Unbinding of Kith'ix on Normal difficulty or higher while in a guild group.
All 9 are in the Achievements table below.
New creatures
The build adds 2 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.
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.
