Patch 9.1.5 Encrypted Items - Mount, Pet, Wearables
Patch 9.1.5 added some new files that may be the next expansion’s Deluxe Edition rewards.
Spoilers below
-
The files are all encrypted, but contain a mount, pet, and one or more wearable items.
-
There are one or more transmog items in one set that are encrypted.
-
There are several encrypted references to the in-game shop UI. Shadowlands Deluxe
Edition rewards also had several special shop UI elements, much more than just a shop mount or pet.
-
There are copies of 5 textures used in the “9fx_drakemountemerald_buff” spell effect, which may be connected to the encrypted mount. This spell effect was added in Patch 9.2.
-
The mount rewarded by a Deluxe Edition is usually tied in with the expansion theme.
-
One of the encrypted items added in a Patch 9.1.5 build was removed in Patch 9.2 and encrypted with a new key, meaning it may be released separately.
-
One of the models shares 34 animations (emotes, sitting, fishing) with the Vulpera male.
-
Shadowlands Collector’s Edition rewards (mount, pet, items) were encrypted with one key and added in Patch 8.2.5, similar to how these are bundled.
So, the rumors that the next expansion will be Dragon Isle is sounding more concrete. The leaks may have a small grain of truth in them, but will have to wait and see still.

Yeah not surprised.
I saw this on MMO-c and had a feeling they’d make it about something dragon theme’d, too many dragon references and emerald stuff the past few expansions 
The tinker class of course.
Saw this on MMOC, and of course that clown show misread it, and took it to mean that the mystery mount is an emerald dragon, not that the mystery mount has similar spell effect textures as the emerald dragon.
It also possible that The Jailer does cause some very serious damage, which forces us to go into the Emerald Dream to repair it. This maybe the reason Blizzard brought back Ysera as the way into the dream.

Huh, i guess that dragon isles leak wasnt wrong after all.
Hyped for black dragons.
Can’t wait to have to farm mobs for days to complete a quest to get a mog I paid extra for, again.

The only thing that was datamined is that there will be cash-shop pets, mounts and transmogs.
Described only as such, completely blankly. How you can guess, or confirm anything with that “leak” is …you must be a witch, fortune-teller etc.
This just in: The Deluxe Edition has been datamined to (once again) feature rewards such as: Mounts, Pets and Transmogs! (groundbreaking expansion news Blizzard has been sweating months over revealing, I’m sure.)
Dragon Isles/Tinker Class confirmed!
Actually, this does tell us that WoW 10.0 will be more of the same expansion type thing we expect from Blizzard to pull out of their hat for us. Nothing new, really.
I mean we got a robot worm for Shadowlands and the only time we see one is when we leave Oribos. So yeah, I’m not buying it.
Blizzard has always left bread crumbs in the pervious expansions to point to were they are going.
Lest look at the clues:
First of all Wrathion in BfA was Wrathion was searching for the Dragon Isles. He never explained if he found them, but he would have kept looking while we were in the Shadow Lands.
Secondly in Shadowlands there was the quest to revive Ysera in Ardenweald. This caused Ysera to be bound to Ardenweald, but we might find a way to release her in the Isle.
Third during the holidays Blizzard had that bug sale whit all the dragon mounts bundled together for one price.
There are many reason to speculate that the next expansion will be about then fights in some form.

Could you link this thread? I couldn’t seem to find it, very interesting though.
I’ve tried looking through to find the one you’re referencing, theirs so many posts on leaks and all, I can’t the the specific one your speaking about.
Edit: found it!
The next expansion is Ashes of Creation.

Yeah none of the leaks on mmochamp seem legit in any way. Just seems like a wishlist from a dragon fan.
next expansion is 95% about dragons , it’s not a prediction guys , come from a 95% legit source . if i said who it is , you would said ok its 99% legit

Everyone can disregard all the leaks all they want but you would have to be a fool to not consider the encrypted stuff.

Could be time and space is relative since we did see Ysera in the realm of ulm .I was wondering since she did die before the raid that could explain a lot.
