Patch 5.2 Changes and Sunsong Ranch

Buying the Farm

A lot of changes occurred in Patch 5.2. It appears that in Patch 5.2 this dream will come to life in an effort to play Santa, Blizzard has recently given us a small taste of what is in store for us in the newest World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria patch. While many exciting additions and changes were revealed in the Patch notes for 5.2, including a brand new raid instance, my attention was immediately drawn to the changes coming to the Tillers faction and in turn Sunsong Ranch.

Finally, the new patch allows us to purchase Sunsong Ranch from Farmer Yoon. According to the patch notes, once we purchase the ranch it will basically become our own. This means that Sunsong Ranch will be a safe haven where we can log out in relative safety.


WoW Patch 5.2 Changes


As if just owning Sunsong Ranch wasn't enough, it appears that once you have purchased the land work orders will fly to you from all over Pandaria. These work orders will come from various factions and will earn you faction reputation once they are completed. For those who already spend lots of time in the ranch, this ability to earn reputation while doing something we enjoy is nothing short of amazing.

Blizzard has introduced about buying the farm:" Players that have grown attached to working the land at Sunsong Ranch can now purchase the land from Farmer Yoon. Once the farm is owned by a player, it becomes a rest point like an Inn, where the player can bind and instantly log out. Work orders will pour into the farm from factions across Pandaria, and completing a work order will earn a reputation boost with the issuing faction."


Other Patch 5.2 Changes

Besides the farm's change of Sunsong Ranch coming up, Blizzard has other changes and additions in store for the farm, which includes:

Seed bags have been added which allows player to plant 4 plots at a time. Yoon's Mailbox has been re-named to Sunsong Ranch Mailbox. Special Crops will now harvest more.

Running the Master Plow across any underground Virmen will cause them to reveal themselves.
Wild Crops will be less. Players who have the “Friends on the Farm” achievement will no longer get gifts when harvesting. Instead they will find special seeds such as Magebulb, Enigma Seed, and Songbell.

That about wraps it up for changes to Sunsong Ranch in Patch 5.2. After viewing all the changes coming, it seems like Sunsong Ranch in Patch 5.2 will be much improved. Every change made above will be beneficial to the overall enjoyment of the ranch instead of a determent.
