Patch 7.2 releases March 28th.

MMO-Champion has a good writeup on getting prepared for patch 7.2 - http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/6473-Patch-7-2-Preparation-Character-Services-Sale-Blue-Posts-PvP-Title-Cutoff-Key-Art

But since there’s only a day left (Monday) before the patch goes live, but here’s the highlights,

Get Your Artifact Weapon to (at least) 35 Traits - Once you’ve earned 35 traits in your Artifact Weapons, you’ll be eligible for a new questline to empower your weapon.

Cap Your Artifact Knowledge - Caps at 25 and will cap to 50 in 7.2

Complete Order Hall Class Campaign - To continue with your order hall campaign in 7.2, you must have completed all currently available order hall quests.

Collect 25,000 Order Resources for New Order Hall upgrades - The first upgrade (tier 7) costs 10,000 x Order Resources and takes one day to research.

The second (tier 8) costs 15,000 x Order Resources and research completion will take 5 days.

You’ll also need Order Resources for purchasing new artifact knowledge ranks (which now caps at 50).

Earn the Broken Isles Pathfinder, Part One Achievement

Max Reputations to Exalted for Paragon - For each 10,000 reputation earned past Exalted, you will earn a supply reward similar to those awarded by Emissary Quests.

Level Class Hall Champions - All Champions will now be able to reach Legendary quality, which unlocks a third equipment slot.

Gather Crafting Materials for new BoE Legendaries

Sell Excess Gathered Materials Before Flying is Unlocked - With Flying, gathering becomes easier, supply increases and prices drop on the AH.

Level Battle Pets

Collect Transmog Items
