Three well-known Barrens rares have new loot in World of Warcraft: Forever, Wowhead reports: Swiftmane, Takk the Leaper and Humar the Pridelord. Their new drops make up a set, and wearing two of its pieces adds 5% movement speed whenever you are in the Barrens or Stonetalon Mountains.
Wowhead shows three pieces: the ring Signet of the Zhevra, the necklace Mark of the Pack Leader and the cloak Raptor Hide Cloak. Their tooltips list required levels from 16 to 20. The article doesn’t say which rare drops which piece.
Wowhead had already reported reworked bonuses on two dungeon sets in Forever, Defias Leather from the Deadmines and Embrace of the Viper from Wailing Caverns. This set is new, and it comes from rares in the open world rather than a dungeon.
Why it matters: these three rares are now worth hunting while you level, and the speed bonus covers two zones.
