Warlords of Draenor Garrisons - Inn and Tavern
Today we are taking a look at the Inn and Tavern building in the garrison. Currently only the first two tiers are accessible on beta until you earn the Stay Awhile and Listen achievement and unlock the Level 3 Blueprint.
The Inn/Tavern take up a Medium plot which can also be used for a Barn, Gladiator's Sanctum, Lumber Mill or Trading Post. Once upgraded to Tier 3, your garrison will have two Medium plots available.
Abilities
This building is good for earning more followers, novelty items from the daily quests, and gold from the Treasure Hunt missions.
- Level 1 - Each day, a visitor offering a dungeon quest with generous rewards will spend the day at your inn.
- Level 2 - Recruits random followers each week. You can specify traits and abilities you're especially interested in.
- Level 3 - Unlocks the particularly lucrative Treasure Hunt missions.
Follower Recruitment
Once a week you can select a follower with a trait or ability that you are interested in to recruit. You are then offered a choice of three followers.

Warlords of Draenor - Dev Interview
Icy Veins had the chance to talk to Tom Chilton at Gamescom. You can find the full interview transcript on their site.
- The team hoped to have Warlords of Draenor released a few months ago, but scaling up the team by almost 50% slowed things down.
- Zones are already in production for the next expansion, so things should finally be better moving forward.
- If more people start doing challenge mode dungeons then challenge mode raids would be something to consider. The team has to be careful not to spend too much time on content that isn't ever seen by most players.
- One idea that came up was to make both Northrend and Outland a level 60 to 80 zones at half of their current speed and then allowing players to pick one to level through. Making this change would be fairly time consuming, so it is just an idea for now.
- After the new character model revamp is done, adding physics and improving the look and feel of combat are options.

What are you basing this on? (Celestalon)
being in a raid an never being able to see the ground through consecrate/effo/sanctuary? Idk I though clutter would be gone.
Ground effects are unaffected by spellClutter. We're working on those separately. (Celestalon)
How do you see festerblight Unholy playing? Keeping NP up forever or only long enough for Outreak/Unholy Blight to come off CD?
We're fine with either of those outcomes, so haven't tried to push it one way or another. (Celestalon)
Is the damage on VEnt for Spriests being scaled down to make room for a secondary effect, like cleace or something?
Yes; the Devouring Plague refresh. (Celestalon)
It wasn't worth casting pre-nerf even with DP refresh, what are we missing here?
What are you basing that "worth casting" on? It varies by effective duration, right? (Celestalon)
Wrote up a mathy summary for you, but we have full simulations if you like http://t.co/Khq0GsPiaJ
Not that your conclusion is wrong, but you're making some pretty extreme assumptions in one case. I'd be curious... (Celestalon)
...about what combination of procs can give you a full double damage on DP. And more importantly, you should compare to an avg DP. (Celestalon)
Why did you kill off the Hemo snapshotting? It was adding cool mechanics to the spec...
It was kind of neat how it played out, but very unintuitive, and would eventually favor addons. Trying to go a different route. (Celestalon)
Character / Items
With Justice and Valor going away, assuming Justice vendors will turn to gold?
Yep. (WatcherDev)
Hi, just to know, What will happen to the charms of MoP in WoD ? Will they be made into WoD's charms, or converted in gold ?
We'll likely be giving some new options to spend your excess Lesser Charms in 6.0 - details will follow in a blog or forum post. (WatcherDev)
Warlords of Draenor Stats
For PVE DPS, you'd never take a piece of gear with Vers on it as a pure DPS. It's a worthless stat.
By "never", you mean "only when it's on a higher ilvl piece, or you value significant DR over slight dps loss." (Celestalon)
IS there really any situation where primary stat isnt like 30-50% more valuable than any secondary stats?
Not that I can think of. Primary>Secondary, intentionally. (Celestalon)
PvE
What's the intended number of healers for Mythic? 3-4, 4-5, or 5-6?
5, though 4 or 6 on some fights is something I expect to see. If we see 3 or 7, we'd consider that a tuning error on our part. (WatcherDev)
Would it be better if the Dungeon Journal was more for Dungeons, Normal & LFR Raids. But Heroic & Mythic Raids don't use it.
The number of "the DJ wasn't clear about ____" posts I see from Mythic raiders in our feedback threads would suggest otherwise. (WatcherDev)
Will mythic in 6.0 revert to same-server players only? Not sure because of the systems changes coming for raids to prep for WoD.
Mythic SoO will remain cross-realm, but Highmaul/Foundry Mythic are same-server-only until the next tier releases. (WatcherDev)
Lore
Not sure if that's something we can even say at this point, but my talented friend may have an answer.
No lorewalker equivalent in this expansion, but we're keeping the idea alive for later expansions! (DaveKosak)
Garrisons
I'm confused. Is having an Inn the only way to get followers/nifty followers?
.Many followers come from quests, Inn gets you a few extra of the widest randomness (any race/class/abilities/etc) (Muffinus)
Why isn't the innkeeper in the inn and why doesn't the inn offer rested xp as well?
Actually felt weirder binding you to two points, but I see the argument, will discuss (Muffinus)
