'''Heirloom''' is an [[item]] type that was introduced with [[Wrath of the Lich King]].<ref name="discover">http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=9679633896&sid=2000#18</ref> The items have a golden hue in their text color, and their attributes scale with the character's level.<ref name="detail">http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=9679633896&sid=2000&pageNo=4#75</ref> Nearly all heirloom items are named after popular items from the early days of Classic WoW, and share the look of these items.

'''Core Hounds''' are only found inside [[Magmadar|Magmadar's]] cavern in Molten Core. They are much different than their older brethren, the [[Core Hound]]s. There are five packs throughout the cavern, and each hound in a pack must be defeated within ten seconds of each other or their corpse will be reignited by the living hounds and come back to life.
−
Once purchased, heirlooms bind to the account, as opposed to an individual character. This means they can be mailed to any character that shares the same account and server, including those of opposing faction ([[patch 3.3]]). Heirloom items can be returned for a refund within the normal two-hour grace period, but only if the item was not mailed to a different character yet.
 
   
  +
==Abilities==
−
Heirlooms automatically take on the attributes of a [[Rare|blue quality item]] of the level of its wearer. At level 80, heirlooms are approximately equivalent to an [[item level]] 187 {{quality|rare}} item, and will ultimately be replaced by questing, instancing, and PvP at the maximum level. Heirloom items do not have a durability stat, and do not need to be repaired. This saves money when leveling your character.
 
  +
* They will come back to life, with full health, if they are dead for over 10 seconds and there is still a member of their pack alive.
  +
* Hits most tanks for about 300-400.
  +
* They also have a special frontal attack. It puts a [[DoT]] on the target that does 50 damage every second for 30 seconds. It stacks up to 10 times. (Total 15,000 damage over 30 seconds when stacked 10 times)
   
  +
==Strategies==
−
For classes that can wear [[mail]] and [[plate]] items, while the character is under level 40, heirlooms will appear as [[leather]] or mail [[armor]] types until that character is able to wear the mail or plate armor type. For instance, when purchasing an heirloom for a level 12 [[shaman]], you want to buy a mail heirloom item, which will scale down to leather when equipped on the shaman until the shaman reaches level 40, when it will become mail again.
 
  +
Mark each hound and assign a warrior each, then pull and have the warriors all bunch them up. Try to turn so that the dog's head is facing outwards. This way, as few tanks as possible will likely be hit by the melee dot.
   
  +
After every dog has a suitable number of sunders (2 minimum, but 5 is ideal), you can call in the AoE attacks. This will help get all the dogs dead at the same time. Any person that does single target damage is also constantly looking for the dog with the highest HP to target. This is very important, if a single hound dies too soon then it will be reignited by the living hounds and in turn will reignite the others when they die. If the Core Hounds do revive, it is still possible to recover with quick thinking and coordinated dps. It is also Important for the healers to remember to continue healing the tanks after all the Core Hounds are dead, those stackable DoT's continue doing a lot of damage after the battle.
−
Heirloom [[shoulders]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft chest items|chest]]pieces, [[cloak]]s, [[helm]]s and the [[ring]] allow greater [[experience]] gains while wearing them. The experience bonuses stack with each other and with the [[rested]] bonus, and affect experience gains from [[quests]],<ref>{{blizzforumlink |topicid=17367750090 |sid=1#12 |subject=Do the herloom shoulders increase quest xp? |datetime=05/27/2009 10:20:32 AM PDT |author={{Blizz}} [[Bornakk]]}}</ref> but do not stack with [[Essence of Wintergrasp]]. The maximum possible experience bonus from heirlooms alone is 40%.
 
   
  +
==Notes==
−
Heirloom item restrictions are skill based and not class based. For instance, any class could wear the cloth shoulders and chest for the 20% experience boost, but classes such as warriors and rogues would not benefit from the item's casting stats.
 
  +
*Killing a Core Hound rewards 20 reputation with the [[Hydraxian Waterlords]] until {{reputation|revered}}.
  +
*They respawn in 60 minutes.
  +
*Be warned: If you pull too fast, i.e. having a dead pack on the ground while the next pull is coming in, the dead bodies can ignite hounds from the current pack back to life!

==Tips for Early Purchasing==
 
  +
<gallery>
−
If you're thrifty and plan to level several alts, aim for gear many different classes can use even if the gear might be not be optimal for all of them. This is especially important since enchants for such gear tend to go for high prices on auction houses. For example, spell shoulders and spell staffs are popular heirlooms since nearly all classes that use mana can find some use for them compared to stuff like paladin-specific spellplate. Similarly, shoulders of ''any'' kind should take preference over weapons, the former for their experience boost (even if it creates suboptimal stats) while the latter are mostly a convenience to the player with the exception of gear-dependent tanks.

The heirloom shoulders were originally sold only in [[Wintergrasp]] or [[Dalaran]]. In [[Patch 3.2.0]], the shoulders sold in Dalaran are also purchasable from [[Dame Evniki Kapsalis]] at the [[Argent Tournament Grounds]] in [[Icecrown]] for [[Champion's Seal]]s once the title {{title|[[Crusader (title)|Crusader]]}} has been earned.<ref>{{ref web |url=http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=18600878587&sid=1&pageNo=4 |title=Re: 3.2 new heirlooms |accessdate=2009-10-07 |author=[[Zarhym]] |date=2009-07-24}}</ref>.

These can be purchased from [[Dame Evniki Kapsalis]] once the title {{title|[[Crusader (title)|Crusader]]}} has been earned, at the [[Argent Tournament Grounds]] in [[Icecrown]] costing 60 {{item|icon=|Champion's Seal|Champion's Seal}}, or from [[Enchanter Erodin]] (Horde) / [[Enchanter Isian]] (Alliance) in [[Dalaran]] costing {{Cost|jp=2175}}.

Below, classes in square brackets are not in the proper armor class, but will still get the full benefit from the listed heirloom.

== Weapons, accessories, misc. ==

Like the shoulders, many of these [[weapons]] and other heirlooms were originally sold either in Dalaran or in Wintergrasp. Some were added as available only at the Argent Tournament, but currently both the Dalaran and Argent Tournament vendors offer the same selection of items. A quest reward [[ring]] grants players an additional 5% XP bonus.

==Head and Shoulder Enchants==
 
−
The head enchants available at revered with certain factions, and the shoulder [[enchants]] available at [[exalted]] with the [[Sons of Hodir]], are also heirloom-quality items, but are only useable by level 80 characters. This is to allow for the use of these powerful enchants without having to grind through the [[reputation]]s (particularly Sons of Hodir) with another character.
 
−  
−
Note that these Heirloom items are the only the ''highest level'' version of the item the faction vendor carries. For example, {{loot|rare|Lesser Inscription of the Axe}} is not an Heirloom and the name will not appear in a brown color in the vendor's trade window.

==Enchanting your Heirlooms==
 
−
Heirlooms can be enchanted only with enhancements that will not bind the item to the character. The items are treated as [[item level]] 1, and as such can not use most [[Burning Crusade]] or higher enhancements, including [[Death Knight]] [[runes]]. Also worth considering is the fact that some of the enhancements that can be used will not actually take effect unless the character using them is of the appropriate level.
 
−  
−
The shoulder enchants from the Inscription profession will work on Heirlooms shoulders at any level, however you will require Inscription for the enchant to take effect. This means minimum level required is 65 (to have 400 skill). The pvp shoulder enchant will only work when your character reaches level 70.
 
−  
−
For the sake of space, only the most useful enchantments are included. (Note: You are able to place [[Zul'Gurub_enchantment | Zandalar Signets]] on Heirloom Items if you have the rep though they require lvl 55 to become active.)

MobCore Hound
No image available
Race Core hound (Beast)
Level 61 Elite
Reaction Alliance Horde
Location Magmadar Cavern, Molten Core
Pet family Core hound

Core Hounds are only found inside Magmadar's cavern in Molten Core. They are much different than their older brethren, the Core Hounds. There are five packs throughout the cavern, and each hound in a pack must be defeated within ten seconds of each other or their corpse will be reignited by the living hounds and come back to life.

Abilities

  • They will come back to life, with full health, if they are dead for over 10 seconds and there is still a member of their pack alive.
  • Hits most tanks for about 300-400.
  • They also have a special frontal attack. It puts a DoT on the target that does 50 damage every second for 30 seconds. It stacks up to 10 times. (Total 15,000 damage over 30 seconds when stacked 10 times)

Strategies

Mark each hound and assign a warrior each, then pull and have the warriors all bunch them up. Try to turn so that the dog's head is facing outwards. This way, as few tanks as possible will likely be hit by the melee dot.

After every dog has a suitable number of sunders (2 minimum, but 5 is ideal), you can call in the AoE attacks. This will help get all the dogs dead at the same time. Any person that does single target damage is also constantly looking for the dog with the highest HP to target. This is very important, if a single hound dies too soon then it will be reignited by the living hounds and in turn will reignite the others when they die. If the Core Hounds do revive, it is still possible to recover with quick thinking and coordinated dps. It is also Important for the healers to remember to continue healing the tanks after all the Core Hounds are dead, those stackable DoT's continue doing a lot of damage after the battle.

Notes

  • Killing a Core Hound rewards 20 reputation with the Hydraxian Waterlords until revered.
  • They respawn in 60 minutes.
  • Be warned: If you pull too fast, i.e. having a dead pack on the ground while the next pull is coming in, the dead bodies can ignite hounds from the current pack back to life!
