Decor question

Community Housing
1

I haven’t had a chance to log in to play around with housing yet. Do we only get to buy decor or does some drop from old raids or anything?

I haven’t done any raiding but I’ve acquired pieces from achievements, quests and lots of vendors worldwide including quartermasters. I have Onyxia’s head from that raid. The housing UI has a database of all furnishings and where to get them. Kinda like the appearances tab.

I can confirm that there are some that drop from dungeons/raids. I killed Hellscream for his throne and King Mechagon for a tall tesla-coil. Now drop rate is 100% so you just have to go in and kill the boss. Now I do think you’ll have to kill them again if you want more than one so if you want 3 thrones then you’ll have to kill Hellscream three times.

I believe there are three ways to acquire things right now, and the real world 1.

  1. Housing decor vendors in the home area.
  2. acheivement related decors, and loot from bosses in raids/dungeons.
  3. Almost all past and present reputation vendors appear to have items for purchase. This is a bit annoying, because it appears to be using the currency from that XPAC in some cases (quite stupid), which means we’ll have to farm really dumb stuff for an old currency at some point. If exalted with some faction go check it out and you might get a painting or chair or something.
  4. In-game shop

I think these are the major ways we acquire decor atm.

Lastly, I don’t know if everything intended has been added yet. I’ve seen alot of stuff say “tracking unavailable” .

I flew around today in MOP and Draenor checking out exalted rep vendors and looking for “new” engineering recipes. I was surprised to see that even with exalted rep, items which cost 100-120 gold from a bazaar vender will cost 400 gold plus resources from that era. Honestly I felt that was unfair for working so hard at that time for that achievement. The recipes weren’t bad in cost but definitely need alot of matts. Oh and go get your self an axe in the bazaar cuz your back to cutting chunks of wood off trees to make things.
