Valorstones Becoming Warbound and Uncapped Ethereal Crests
There are two main currencies used to upgrade end-game armor and weapons in The War Within Season 3, Ethereal Crests and Valorstones. As part of Turbo Boost, Valorstones will become Warbound and the Crest caps on Ethereal Crests will be lifted.
This will allow players to more comfortably afford armor upgrade for their characters and will smooth out the end game gearing progression.

Alongside Cartel Chips, the drop rates for Warband gear out of Mythic+ dungeons will be significantly increased.
New to Season 3 Turbo Boost, Catalyst charges will now drop from Mythic+ dungeons, Manaforge Omega, Delves, and rated PvP. These can be used to help acquire your 4-set bonus or acquire certain Transmog options from the Tier Set armor for Season 3!
