"One thing I can tell you is that chest piece heirlooms will be available in the next content patch. They will provide a 10% experience bonus that stacks with the shoulder bonus. "

So 1.1*1.1 = 1.21 = 21% faster leveling - woot - when is "next content patch" - I really need this for my straggler teams

stacks with rested as well.

There will be some requirements on the chest pieces though i think (haven't read the linked article, but the one on wowinsider)

uh ouch, I rejoiced too early - it seems you may need Crusader title to get access to those:

Crusader is a title obtained by earning the achievements Exalted Argent Champion of the Alliance or the Exalted Argent Champion of the Horde, which involve earning exalted status with and the right to represent the entire Alliance or Horde in the Argent Tournament, plus exalted status with the Argent Crusade.

That's a loong grind for RAF'ed toons that have no rep with anyone - maybe I can get it somewhat easily with my ambassador but that would be only 1 chest... :-(

You should have it by the time the next expansion comes out

I've got a possible solution to this. Of course, it will cost you some real money. Use your Ambassador to grind for the gear, send it to a new alt then transfer that alt to one of your other accounts, that is if you have the extra room to do so. Then get a new piece using your Ambassador and do this again, but send the new piece to another account. Will cost ya, if possible to do, but atleast you wouldn't have to grind the hell out of a new toon to get it.

What's your source for that, Moorea?

The only blue posts I could find on it (like the ones in this thread) are totally non-commital about exactly how you'll get the chestpiece.

If you could post a link, that'd be great

So... in order to spend less time grinding... you first have to grind some more

[Otlecs]

There's no link to an official source there though. Unfortunately, the Under Development page does link the two together:

A new line of dailies and rewards for players who have earned the title of Crusader will be available with two random seal-awarding dailies.
New Heirlooms

Damn. I didn't even bother with the Argent Crusader quests. At all.

It is true that you must spend time to get this...

HOWEVER, I think you guys are missing that this in an account bound item. Once you have grinded out the rep for the chest just once, you'll never have to grind it out again as you can just trade it to how many ever alts you want too.

The fact that this stacks with the shoulders is very sexy.
