“For my kind, the true question is - what is worth fighting for?”

— Chen Stormstout

World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria (abbreviated as MoP or Mists) is the fourth expansion pack for World of Warcraft. It was officially announced on October 21, 2011 at BlizzCon 2011 and released on September 15, 2012. The pre-expansion patch was released on August 28, 2012. On October 16, 2014, the expansion was integrated into the basic World of Warcraft package, granting all subscribers automatic access to all of the content and features of the expansion at no additional cost.^[2]

Following the successful campaigns in Northrend and in the lands opened by the Shattering, and the deaths of the Lich King at Icecrown Citadel and Deathwing the Destroyer at the Maelstrom, the expansion refocuses primarily on the war between the Alliance and Horde, in the wake of the accidental rediscovery of the mythical and long-forgotten lands of Pandaria, a continent far to the south that has until now been shrouded in magical mists and touched by the ancient malevolence known only as the Sha. With both factions landing on Pandaria, adventurers rediscover the ancient pandaren people, whose wisdom will help guide them to new destinies; the Pandaren Empire's ancient enemy, the mantid; and their legendary oppressors, the enigmatic mogu. As conflicts heat up between the Alliance and Horde, the land changes over time, with subsequent patches having escalated the conflict between Alliance leader Varian Wrynn and the increasingly unbalanced Horde warchief Garrosh Hellscream... eventually leading to a schism within the Horde itself. As civil war wracks the Horde, the Alliance and forces in the Horde opposed to Hellscream's violent uprising join forces to take the battle directly to the enemy, leading to direct confrontation with Hellscream and his Sha-touched allies in the expansion's concluding showdown deep within the bowels of Orgrimmar itself.^[3]

Mists of Pandaria comes in three versions: Standard Edition, Digital Deluxe Edition and Collector's Edition.

Lore

From the official site:

Shrouded in fog since the world was sundered more than ten thousand years ago, the ancient realm of Pandaria has remained unspoiled by war. Its lush forests and cloud-ringed mountains are home to a complex ecosystem of indigenous races and exotic creatures. It is the homeland of the enigmatic Pandaren, a race that celebrates life to the fullest even while under siege by an ancient menace.

The new continent reveals itself to a broken world just as the Alliance and Horde are spiraling ever closer to a war that will consume all of Azeroth. Will the mists of Pandaria part to reveal the world's salvation? Or will the battle to control this rich and breathtaking new land push the two mighty factions over the brink of war and into total annihilation? The answers await within Pandaria's mysterious shores!

As a first for Blizzard, the storyline for Mists of Pandaria will split into multiple chapters. The story arc that introduces Pandaria - where players will discover the continent and level up, helping to solve problems and figure out what happened for the past 10,000 years and why - will be included entirely within the initial expansion release. Later chapters in the storyline bring the war between the Horde and the Alliance back into focus, including changing parts of Pandaria (ostensibly via phasing) to show additional settlements, and eventually return the players back to the rest of the world for a final showdown with Garrosh Hellscream.^[4]

The Mists of Pandaria pre-release patch (5.0.4), released on 28 August 2012, included the talent system revamp, amalgamation of mounts & pets across characters on the same account, and a level 85 version of the Theramore's Fall scenario leading into the Mists storyline.^[4]

New zones

Main article: Pandaria

Pandaria is a single, unified continent, located south of Zandalari isles, influenced by Asian landscapes. There are eight new zones (along with a small mini-zone), most of which are on Pandaria itself, save for the starting area for the Pandaren.^[3] Flying mounts on Pandaria are unavailable on the continent until reaching the level cap (90), as the designers wish players to be immersed in the world and enjoy the effort put into the continent while leveling, rather than just fly over it.

The Wandering Isle (1-10): An "island" separated from Pandaria for millennia, a living creature which wanders the oceans of Azeroth. This is an introductory zone for new Pandaren characters.
The Jade Forest (85-86): A lush rainforest filled with tall stone spires, this is the initial landing zone for both factions and the introduction to the new continent. Contains one dungeon, the Temple of the Jade Serpent.
Valley of the Four Winds (86-87): The lush farmland of Pandaria, that is considered the 'breadbasket' of the land. Contains the dungeon Stormstout Brewery. One of two concurrent leveling zones for 86-87 characters. Also contains the first player-specific private phase location: the Player Farm.
Krasarang Wilds (86-87): The coastal rainforest endangered by Mogu, located on the southernmost part of the continent. The second of two concurrent leveling zones for 86-87 characters.
Kun-Lai Summit (87-88): The frozen northern mountainous reaches of Pandaria, under attack from Zandalari trolls and marauders from the west. Contains the dungeon Shado-Pan Monastery and the Mogu'shan Vaults raid.
Townlong Steppes (88-89): The current homeland of the vicious Mantid people, separated from the rest of Pandaria by a "great wall". Location of the dungeon Siege of Niuzao Temple.
Dread Wastes (89-90): The mantid homeland, now overrun by the Sha of Fear, has been corrupted into a horrifying wasteland of swamps and scorched earth. Players will have to fight their way into the lair of the mantid queen herself to rout out the source of the corruption. The raid Heart of Fear is located here.
Vale of Eternal Blossoms (90): The central homeland of the Pandaren people, high atop the central mountains of Pandaria. Contains the Horde/Alliance cities of the expansion at its center, with secrets "buried below this mystical font of power". It also contains the Gate of the Setting Sun and Mogu'shan Palace dungeons.
The Veiled Stair (87-90): A small mini-zone situated in the mountains between The Jade Forest, Valley of the Four Winds, and Vale of Eternal Blossoms, with a portal to the Terrace of the Endless Spring raid. It is used by characters for transportation to the Kun-Lai Summit.
Isle of Thunder (90): Introduced in Patch 5.2, the island home of the risen Lei-Shen, the Thunder King, former ruler of the Mogu Empire. It contains the first major raid introduced after the expansion's launch, the Throne of Thunder, along with daily quest chains and open-world rare creatures, including the world boss Nalak.
Isle of Giants (90): Also debuting with 5.2, an island off the northern coast of Pandaria featuring the world boss Oondasta and a trove of dinosaurs (and troll dinomancers) to tame or kill.
Timeless Isle (90): Introduced in Patch 5.4, a magical island off Pandaria's southeastern coast ruled by the Four Celestials and the Yaungol god of fire, Ordos. The isle is almost fully independent of questing, instead preferring open-world PvE/PvP, and also providing catch-up epic gear for new or lower-geared Level 90s.

Dungeon, raid and scenario content

The expansion currently features nine high-level dungeons (six of which are new to the world and are found in the continent of Pandaria alone), three raids, and nearly a dozen scenarios (a game system new as of the Mists of Pandaria expansion).

Factions and organizations

The continent of Pandaria features a number of new factions with gear, schematics and vanity rewards. Blizzard's stated intent for these reputations is to be a more rewarding and less grindy process, in which reaching Exalted is something to be proud of.

The Anglers, a faction of simple fishermen joined by the enigmatic angler Nat Pagle.
The August Celestials, four powerful ancestral spirits that watch over Pandaria. Players will be called to action at their ancient temples.
The Golden Lotus, a secret society of guardians selected by the August Celestials to watch over the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, which is under assault from the mogu and mantid. Initially you will be required to scout and explore for them, and different threats will appear in the zone each day for you to help stop. As the faction grows to trust you, they will eventually send you onto the front lines of their conflict. You will also gain access to their historical vaults.
The Klaxxi: Keepers of the mantid culture, these stoic mantid lords have determined that their own queen has been corrupted and must be destroyed. Although wary of outsiders, it may be possible to earn the trust of the Klaxxi, gaining access to their unique arms and armor.
Order of the Cloud Serpent: This order of flying warriors was founded long ago, during the Zandalari wars. Gain their favor, and they’ll reveal the secrets of training a cloud serpent to become a loyal mount.
The Lorewalkers, a faction responsible for archiving the lore of Pandaria which is connected to the Golden Lotus. You can bring them objects and artifacts from all over the world, and they will give presentations and information on the history of Pandaria.
Shado-Pan, an elite faction of pandaren in Kun-Lai Summit who are experts on the Sha, tasked with protecting the continent from their influence. You will have to earn their trust, gradually working your way up through the ranks.
The Tillers, a faction which represents the farmers who make the Valley of the Four Winds their home. Different farmers will appear in the farmer's market each day to offer a variety of daily quests. Players will also be given a plot of land on Farmer Yoon's Sunsong Ranch, where they can plant and harvest cooking ingredients, herbs, gifts for NPCs to help build reputation, and a companion pet which you can grow. You'll also be able to ecorate the farm as you progress, adding animals, orchards, etc.
Shado-Pan Assault, introduced with Patch 5.2. This faction reputation is associated with the attack on the Throne of Thunder to depose the revived Lei-Shen, the Thunder King.
Emperor Shaohao, introduced with Patch 5.4. The recently returned Pandaren Emperor accompanies the traveler to the Timeless Isle and this reputation is gained through combat there.
