New items
The build adds 9 items. Slot and binding come from the item record itself.
other items: Blue Firework (common); Green Firework (common); Red Firework (common); Red Streaks Firework (common); Yellow Rose Firework (common)
The build adds 80 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 1 added and 6 changed entries in the same build.
The client's map and area tables gained 2 new map records (Dalaran Skycuter and Mulgore Skycuter) and 2 new area records (Hyjal Crater and Sunken Hollow). A new map record is how a zone, instance or scenario first appears in the client, usually before any quest or encounter references it.
Computed from build record 15704 (1.60.1.70374) to build record 16313 (1.60.1.70425). Every count on this page is the number of rows that changed between those two records.
What each spell listed above is and who uses it, read from the current game data: school, cast time and duration, the skill line or Adventure Guide boss it belongs to, and its tooltip with amounts left out (they scale with level and gear).

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.
