The economic impact of allied races over the next few weeks
Void Elves Everywhere! “Void elves are alliance only because they were crying and wanted their own blood elves”. - from Joe on the forums via a YouTuber he was watching
Unlocking races on factions: you can do the requirements on either side but you need someone on that faction to do the unlock quests. (An Alliance member can have the achievements for Nightborne and Highmountain Tauren, but a 110 Horde must do the quests)

Tottle turtle (aquatic) pet

Kirin Tor supply bag, which contains basic food, water, starter ancient mana, ancient potions, mana diving stone, a tome of the tranquil mind

Suramar is open to the extent that Thalyrissa is there and will give you the first few quests -- no longer have to do the opening scenario of finding her and escorting her in
Does NOT come with a level 3 WOD garrison - reports if you boost a “Character Trial to 100” toon to permanent 110 that you will get the garrison
