Today we're taking another look at WoW through the eyes of a boosted 90. Earlier in the week, we published
a guide to essentials for boosted 90s
including gearing tips, raid details, professions, and currency overviews.
This guide presents an overview of other new types of content added in Mists of Pandaria, in case you've been away from the game a bit or want a break from the gear grind.
Before we dive into the guide, be sure to check out our
1-60 Leveling Guide
if you want to boost a character but would like them to hit 60 first for the profession boost as well! Also check out our
guide to Boosted 90 Essentials
to read up on raiding, professions, and the legendary questline.

Account-Wide Rewards
In Mists of Pandaria, most rewards are now account-wide--titles, mounts, pets, and achievements. This is a lot more alt-friendly than in the past, where you had to farm up the rewards you wanted on each character.
Mounts: All mounts are account-wide save for a few restrictions--mounts from Gladiator PvP, Rated Battlegrounds, Challenge Modes, and class-specific rewards. Riding skills and
are not account-wide, so you will need the appropriate riding skill to ride some distinctive mounts.
Check out our
mount gallery
for more details!
An account-wide title is unlocked when you hit the minimum level required for your initial character to earn it. For example, level 80+ characters can wear
The Kingslayer
since that's the minimum level to kill
Re dei Lich
.
Several titles are not account-wide: Arena and RBG titles, as well as realm-first Challenge Modes. For a full list of titles, check out our
Titles Database
.
Your achievement total is now account-wide, meaning that multiple characters can work on different achievements and it will count towards one total number.
For many meta-achievements, progress is now account-wide as well. For example, two characters can work on seven different achievements each for
Gloria dell'incursore di Orgrimmar
and you will complete the achievement. Criteria within an achievement is not account-wide, such as
Laser, trivelle e magneti! Oh cielo!
or wins for
Maestro delle Miniere di Cupargento
.
To learn more about achievements, check out our
Achievement Database
and filters.
Vanity pets, which we cover in more detail below, are now battle pets. Your previous pets from past expansions now have battle pet stats and abilities, listed on a UI panel along with mounts. You can summon these companion pets as usual, but with Battle Pet training, they are vicious as well.
Very recently, Blizzard introduced account-wide cross-faction mail. This means that you can now send all heirlooms and Timeless Isle BoA tokens to any of your alts--no restrictions. For a full list of account-wide items you can mail, check out
this item list
.
Battle Pets
Pet battling is an extensive new feature in Mists of Pandaria. You can collect pets, fight teams in the wild or other players, and try to beat special tamer challenges--NPCs with tricky pet teams.
To collect pets, you can acquire pets the same way you did before--achievement rewards, vendors, world drops, etc--or you can battle unique wild pets found in every zone.
Pets have a wide array of abilities and come in 10 families which are strong/weak against other specific pet families and have unique passive abilities, like
Acquatica
.
To level up pets, simply defeat wild pets or other players with battle pet teams. Defeating higher-level teams will give you more experience, and trainer teams are always a reliable source of experience. As you level your pets up, they will unlock more abilities.
Battle pets, even of the same type, can have many variations in stats which are due to several factors.
Quality: Pet qualities are poor, common, uncommon, and rare. You can upgrade a pet to rare quality with special Battle-Stones, which are found in pet reward satchels or bags from doing LFR or Flex.
Base Stats: Each pet species starts off with a distinctive amount of base stat points (Health, Power, Speed), which affects formula calculations for their stats and abilities.
Breed: There are ten possible breeds used for pet calculations. Breeds affect how a pet's stats are allocated as they level up, and each pet has a set list of possible breeds they can be.
For more details on pet stats, check out
Cymre's guide
.
Once you're comfortable with your team, you can fight battle pet trainers for daily quests. User ishirra has an
extensive guide to all the dailies involving pet battles
, maps, and how to unlock the dailies. These trainers are found all over the world and some have potential interesting rewards like
Istrice
and
Occhio di Lunacupa
. You can also power-level new pets by letting it soak up XP as two strong pets take out a trainer team.
The ultimate Pet Battle challenge is the Celestial Tournament, which can only be completed once per week, per account. To enter, you need 15 Battle pets that are level 25, and the opposing trainer teams are tough! User mel9525 has an
amazing guide on how to beat the tournament
. For beating the tournament, you get
Moneta Celestiale
which is used to buy cute mini-Celestial pets like
Xu-Fu, Cucciolo di Xuen
.
Wowhead has several tools to help with pet battling:
Our
Battle Pet Team Calculator
lets you plan our your pet teams and provides a summary of its strengths and weaknesses. You can also import your team from Battle.net and compare it against a custom team or a Pet Trainer team.
Since abilities hit for different amounts based on the pet, breed, and quality, our pet ability pages have several sliders and options allowing you to scale the abilities to see their exact amounts.
The Same Model As tab lets you see similar pets that may be easier to get.
Each battle pet page includes a map showing locations for wild pets, as well as a stat calculator showing all the possible variations a pet can come in.
Our
Battle Pet Database
has numerous filters as well as an image gallery view.
You can track your pet completion progress with the
Profiler
to see what pets you still need to collect and level up.
We also have a great selection of
Battle Pet Guides
created by Wowhead users like
Battle Pets and Where to Find Them
by Drahken, and also don't forget to check out
WarcraftPets
for even more tools!

Il tesoro di Pandaria
provides each of your characters with and some experience. You fly around Pandaria looting items, but unlike
The Relic Hunter
, these items are expensive grey items that vendor for a lot, and are personal spawns--they are always up and you don't need to fight other players to loot it.
To see the locations for all of these items, check out our
Riches of Pandaria guide
.
Each patch has introduced new rare spawns. For a complete look at rare spawns and their vanity rewards, check out Lore's
Rare Elites of Pandaria Guide

To see all the locations for Lorewalker scrolls, check out our
Lorewalker's Guide

Level 90 Outdoor Content
Isle of Giants
The
Isola dei Giganti
is a wild untamed zone filled with dinosaurs.
Players can farm these dinosaurs for
Osso Gigante di Dinosauro
, which can be turned into
Ku'ma
for vanity rewards like
Redini del Raptor Primordiale Bianco
and
Istrice Spettrale
.
As you're farming dinosaurs,
Uovo Primordiale
can drop which contains raptor mounts. If you're killing the
Dinomante Zandalari
, they have a chance to drop one of four baby dinosaur battle pets or
Antico Tomo della Dinomanzia
for hunters.
The dinosaurs on the Isle of Giants also have distinctive skins as well for great hunter tames--five unique colors for both
Cornofurente
s and
Gigantosauro
s.
Undasta
is a world boss who drops ilvl 522 loot as well as
Redini del Cornofurente Primordiale di Cobalto
.
Isle of Thunder
The
Isola del Tuono
offers PvE and PvP daily quests, rare spawns, and numerous achievements.
Each day, players choose between PvE and PvP daily quests to get reputation with either the
Rivalsa del Kirin Tor
or
Furia dei Predatori del Sole
.
Besides daily quests, numerous rare spawns provide Valor Points,
Chiave del Tesoro di Lei Shen
, and
Pietra Rituale degli Shan'ze
.
Players who loot a
Chiave del Tesoro di Lei Shen

Timeless Isle
The Timeless Isle is an innovative zone that merges different types of content together--gearing up new players, a difficult reputation grind, World PvP, vanity item farming, and world bosses.
As we covered in the Boosted 90 guide, players can loot a bunch of chests to get BoA armor tokens that turn into epic armor. They can also spend
Moneta Senza Tempo
on additional epic armor pieces and weapons.
The four celestials drop ilvl 553 loot, while players who have completed the
Legendary Questline
on one account have access to
Ordos
who drops ilvl 559 loot.
While it's not everyone's cup of tea, the Timeless Isle encourages World PvP.
Moneta Insanguinata
are acquired by flagged players with
Incensiere dell'Agonia Eterna
, and are used to purchase vanity items like
Redini del Mushan Mantocinereo
.
The numerous
rare spawns
on the Timeless Isle all have low chances to drop different vanity items like
Redini della Serpe delle Nubi Tonante d'Onice
,
Pietra della Pioggia
, and
Pugnali della Fiamma Nera
.
There are several weekly jumping puzzles you can do to reach chests which are a good source for
Lesser Charm of Good Fortune
.
To learn more about the Timeless Isle, check out our
extensive guide
.
Reputation Grinds
Reputations added in Mists of Pandaria used to be time-consuming to grind and were required if you wanted to purchase certain ilvl 489 epics. Fortunately, this system has been simplified recently!
Currently, most reputations rewards epics which cost
Punti Giustizia
and have a few unique vanity items. If you already have a character that is Revered with a faction, you can purchase a
Grand Commendation
which will speed up all reputation gains for that faction by 100%. You can also kill
Araldo della Guerra Zandalari
s on a geared character, since they drop BoA reputation insignias like
Fregio del Loto Dorato Rubato
.
Below is a list of our Mists of Pandaria reputation guides, which cover rewards, achievements, and ways to gain reputation:
Mists of Pandaria Reputation Overview
The Anglers
: Fishing rods, rafts, recipes, and a pet fish.
August Celestials
: Wrist enchants, Cloud Serpent mount.
Golden Lotus
: Tailoring and Leatherworking recipes, Cloud Serpent mount.
Kirin Tor Offensive / Sunreaver Onslaught
: Direhorn mount, consumables for Trove scenario.
Klaxxi
: Transmog weapons, Blacksmithing patterns.
Lorewalkers
: Disc mount, archaeology items.
Operation Shieldwall / Dominance Offensive
: Gryphon/Wyvern mounts.
Order of the Cloud Serpent
: Ability to ride Cloud Serpents and tame Cloud Serpent pets, complimentary mount, Jewelcrafting mount recipes.
Shaohao
: Cloud Serpent mount, porcupine pet, disguises, Timeless Isle teleport.
Shado-Pan
: Transmog helm, Tiger mounts, weapon enchants.
Shado-Pan Assault
: ilvl 522 Epics.
The Tillers
: Expanding your farm, goat mounts, access to seeds that grow profession reagents.
Of particular note are
Ordine della Serpe delle Nubi
and
Coltivatori
--these can help your character even if you're not interested in vanity items, plus they're pretty unique as far as reputations go.
is not an account-wide skill, so if you want to ride Cloud Serpents on your alt, you'll need to hit Exalted with
Ordine della Serpe delle Nubi
. You can farm up eggs in the style of Netherwing, or do the cute daily quests where you watch a baby cloud serpent grow and participate in cloud serpent races.
Coltivatori
is a complex faction in which gaining reputation makes your own personal farm more powerful. You can plant vegetables used to cook food, as well as bulbs that turn into different profession reagents. As
Spirito dell'Armonia
are not BoA, if you want these for any reason, you're best off planting
Seme di Fiorsonoro
on your farm. In addition, you can collect special tokens in hidden dirt piles around Pandaria to gain friendship levels with many levels of the Tiller NPCs, who will then decorate your farm!
There are also several reputations you'll want to pay attention to if you're interested in recipes--
Venerabili Celestiali
and
Shandaren
for Enchanting,
Loto Dorato
for Tailoring and Leatherworking,
Ordine della Serpe delle Nubi
for Jewelcrafting, and
Ordine della Serpe delle Nubi
for Blacksmithing.
Small Group Challenges
While Mists of Pandaria did not add new dungeons during the course of the expansion, there were Challenge Modes for players seeking tricky dungeons, as well as smaller scenarios which provide more insights into Pandaria's backstory. Currently, both options are great ways to get Valor Points.
Challenge Modes
are timed dungeon runs where your gear is scaled down to ilvl 463 and mobs are trickier than in heroics. With gear out of the way, it's all about skill and communication--worth doing with friends. You can even earn cool rewards like unique
transmog sets
,
Pandaren Phoenix mounts
, and
The Undaunted
title!
Our
Challenge Mode Guide
goes over all the rewards and gear rules, provides videos of each encounter, and suggests useful items and consumables to make runs go faster.
While regular scenarios can be pretty easy with ilvl 463-476 gear as rewards, there are six heroic scenarios that award 0
Punti Valore
for the first you run per day, and 0
Punti Valore
for the second. If you complete a bonus objective, you get 0
Punti Valore
.
These six scenarios are
Tempesta Alcolica
,
Dun Morogh
,
Battaglia in Mare Aperto
,
Cripta degli Imperatori Dimenticati
,
Vallata dell'Eterna Primavera
, and
Segreti di Fiamma Furente
. Like Challenge Modes, you must have a pre-formed group before zoning in.
Solo Challenges
Mists of Pandaria has several types of content that challenge players one-on-one. Proving Grounds are a pure test of skill, while Brawler's Guild provides players with quirky fights in a public setting that get easier with gear.
Proving Grounds
are a good place to experiment with your class and spec. Proving Grounds lets players try out solo tank, healing, or dps challenges in a comfortable setting--you aren't surrounded by anyone watching. Gear is scaled down to ilvl 463, so you don't have to worry about feeling undergeared for challenging content--although based on scaling tech, gear with sockets is optimal.
Proving Grounds will be updated for Warlords of Draenor, where Silver will be required to random queue for a heroic dungeon.
Players can try out Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Endless Challenges--Endless Wave 30 rewards
Proven Defender
,
Proven Assailant
, and
Proven Healer
titles based on spec.
Wowhead's Proving Grounds Guide
covers maps for each Gold and Endless wave, basic tips, and descriptions of all the enemy mobs for all three challenges.
Once you've gotten some better gear, check out the
Brawler's Guild
. With an invitation, you can queue up to fight dozens of wacky bosses in a Fight Club atmosphere. Each fight only lasts 2 minutes, so it will get easier with gear--although, of course, a good strategy and knowledge of your class can shave off seconds as well!
Rewards include a unique mount (
Mushan Massiccio dei Combattenti
), pet, and title, as well as vanity shirts for defeating special Challenge bosses.
Our
Brawler's Guild Guide
covers all the basics including obtaining invitations, special consumables, rewards, an overview of the boss fights, and achievements. We also have two great user guides covering the boss fights--
Rank 1-7
by Okacz and
Rank 8-10
by Pwuebear.
