Jade Crane Chick
This pet is only available to Pandarens, you can learn it by going to your battle pet trainer in any major cities. You have to have picked a faction to get this spell, so your Pandaren must be at least level 11, or you have race changed. Another way to get the Jade Crane Chick is by buying it off someone. Each Pandaren can only get this pet once.

Blacklist Your Least Favorite Battlegrounds
I just found out about this, apparently it's been in since 5.0. You can exclude up to two BGs from popping up in your Random Battleground queue from the honor menu. To do this, open up your PVP menu, and hover your mouse to the right of the battlegrounds you want to exclude, you'll know it's blacklisted when there's a thumbs down sign next to it. For me, I chose to exclude AV and IOC, the two bgs that horde almost never wins at. Your choice of blacklist won't work if the battleground is featured as the Call to Arms.

Mage Bomb Macro
Playing a mage, I switch between the different bombs pretty often, when playing frost I like to macro the pet freeze in along with it. Instead of making three macros for each spell I do this:
#Showtooltip
/cast mage bomb
/cast freeze
Mage bomb will change depending on which talent you take.
#Showtooltip
/cast mage bomb
/cast freeze
Mage bomb will change depending on which talent you take.

Time to Hoard Those Lesser Charm of Good Fortune
According to this post, a new tier of charms called Mogu Rune of Fate will be used in the 5.2 raid. You trade for them with Lesser Charms of Good Fortune, just as you with Elder Charms. It hasn't been revealed how many Lesser Charms are needed to exchange for 3 Mogu Runes. Hopefully it'll be 90 or less. So if you're done with this tier of content, start saving up those Lesser Charms. Lesser Charm of Good Fortune is capped at 1,000,000.

Challenge Mode Gear Scaling
I've finally started to play around with Challenge Modes, here's some notes regarding gear:
- Gear will scale down to 463 but not up, so if you have any piece below 463 item level, it stays at that level. But if you have epic or upgraded gear, it will be reduced.
- Sha Touched Gems are deactivated, Tier piece bonuses are deactivated.
- Pvp stats do not get scaled down, not that they do anything for you.
- Your hit and expertise are not scaled down, bosses will be level 93, but most of the trash in the instance is only level 91, so you might want to consider reforging to not miss on level 91 mobs and put the rest into dps stats.
- While pieces with sockets have their stats scaled down an extra ~9%, the gems you place are NOT scaled down. Higher level pieces with multiple sockets will give you an advantage when scaled down compared to pieces without sockets.
- Along the same lines, enchants and profession bonuses do not get scaled down.
- Off topic, but mass res is disabled.
