The newest beta build just went live and included some amazing new archaeology information. Loads of new items are available for your perusal over at MMO-Champion"s excellent database of archaeology items. Some of the more interesting items, which hint at the rewards available through the archaeology profession, include the cosmetic pet Mummified Monkey Paw and wearable Queen Azshara"s Dressing Gown. But most interesting of all, to me, is the Scepter of Az"Aqir.

Why does the Scepter of Az"Aqir give me good feelings? First, it is an archaelogy mount reward that is not the skeletal raptors that we have already seen. I am glad that there isn"t just one mount reward for the profession. Secondly, the mount"s icon is that of the Ahn"Qiraj-bound rideable Qiraji Battle Tanks and the ultra-rare Black Qiraji Battle Tank. Could this be the return of some of the most awesome mounts in the game, allowing players to have another shot at using these mounts outside the gates of Ahn"Qiraj? Only time will tell!
