Molten Core, the classic 40 man dungeon is being rejigged to appear in the raid finder for level 100 players. If you can get to the end of the newly challenging raid then you’re rewarded with a Core Hound mount and “a Warlords of Draenor Raid Finder–quality helm (100% guaranteed!)”

Blizzard will also be “opening a Team Deathmatch–style Battleground based on the timeless struggle between Southshore and Tarren Mill.” You can only take part if you’re above level 90, however. The matches are split into two brackets 90-99 and 100. There’ll be be titles on the line for the victors, either Tarren Mill Terror for the Alliance or Southshore Slayer for the Horde.
