Gurubashi Arena, mounts and cloth quartermasters

[Syrah]

The Gurubashi Arena is one of the few monuments one can visit in Stranglethorn Vale created by the ancient trolls of the Gurubashi Empire. The gladiatorial arena were built thousands of years ago but now stands in ruin after the civil war and fall of the Gurubashi Empire. It's one of the few places one can enter and not expect to be immediately captured and killed by the Bloodscalp and Skullsplitter tribes as the remaining Gurubashi trolls still hold games within the stadium. The participants are volunteers or captured adventurers, travelers who were sold to the Arena by the other tribes.



Be the first to conquer the arena and reap the treasures bestowed by the Bloodsail Pirates.

Dear community,

New features will become available Wednesday (08/26) after the weekly maintenance:

• The Arena opens once again for the entertainment of the Bloodsail Pirates. Are you formidable enough to face all those that stand before you? Come prove yourself!
  
  
• The pre-nerf mounts will remain available until the end of the weekend and will cost 1,000 gold along with being Binds on Equip before leaving the vendors for good.
  
  
• The new post-1.4 mounts will be available for purchase at the mount vendors at the cost of 100 gold.
  
  
• Brace yourself, cloth quartermasters are coming for the weekend. Cloth quartermasters earn their living by accepting large donations of Wool, Silk, Mageweave and Runecloth from adventurers and spreading good word of the donations far and wide.

Best regards,
Nostalrius.

ayy boys looks like u forgot about the elemental invasion once again though. I firmly believe nothing is quite as important to a 1.12 server as a working elemental invasion event, get it right plz, let the raids wait

Edit: Just as a sidenote, sweet announcement, just confused about this weird mount policy.

Technically all epic riding mounts were 1000g and BoE before patch 1.12, be glad they are only doing it for mounts that should have been removed weeks ago and not all of them.

Don't poke the dev bear.

Does this mean the white raptor is gone forever?

Yes, unless you find it on the AH from one of the people who bought it for 1000g, meaning they will likely sell it for far more than that.

i just bought the white raptor for 70g, its not boe but i dont care. Atleast someday i can use it

The wording of this isn't clear to me. Are the arena and cloth QM going to be available after reset on Wednesday, or on the weekend. Is the cloth QM going to remain in game, or are they just available for the weekend?

The Arena and Cloth Quartermasters will be added in the game on Wednesday and they will stay forever.

Pre-1.4 Mounts will become BoE on Wednesday and they will cost 1,000g. After the weekend (8/30), they will be gone forever.
