Latest World of Warcraft News
June 19th, 2009
Upcoming Mount Changes – A very big announcement came last week from Blizzard. With the release of patch 3.2 regular land mounts will be available to players beginning at level 20 this is down from a level requirement of 30. Epic land mounts and basic flying mounts will also be available beginning at levels 40 and 60 respectively. This means players entering Outlands will be able to fly almost immediately…very handy!
- New Travel Options Coming with 3.2 – A few weeks ago we told you about the new zeppelin between Thunder Bluff and Orgrimmar which will be in the game with the arrival of patch 3.2. Now Blizzard has announced that they will also be putting in new portals in Stormwind and Orgrimmar both leading to the Stair of Destiny next to the Dark Portal. So now not only will you be able to take a portal from the Outlands to Stormwind or Orgrimmar but you will also be able to port back, hop on your new flying mount (available @ 60) and be on your way…easy as pie!
- More Algalon Firsts – Since Ensidia scored the World-first Algalon kill nearly two weeks ago, some other guilds have also accomplished the task. Premonition claimed the US first kill roughly a week after Ensidia. Their kill revealed 2 new drop items: Pharos Gloves and Boundless Gaze. Very nice, congrats to Premonition!
- WoW Art Exhibit on Display at the Laguna Art Museum - The Laguna Art Museum in Laguna Beach, CA is hosting an exhibit centered around the art of World of Warcraft. The exhibit entitled WoW: An Emerging Media Phenomenon offers up the works of fourteen different artists and their take on the world of Azeroth. The museum will have these works on display through Oct. 4th, so if you have some extra time to wander over there while you’re attending BlizzCon we would definitely suggest it! If you are not headed to BlizzCon, you can check out some of the artists works here…they are truly amazing!
- More Nerfs in Ulduar – Well last week a few bosses in Ulduar were hit with the nerf bat, some a little harder than others. The hotfixes, which were applied just under a week ago have changed fights from Flame Leviathan to Yoggy himself.
- Warcraft Game Fuel - Anyone who has shopped in the soda isle of their favorite store over the last week or so has likely noticed the 20 oz. bottles of Mountain Dew Game Fuel on the shelves. If you have somehow missed those then the in-game Battle-Bot pets have likely caught your eye, either way the WoW Game Fuel is here for a limited time and as you can see in the official commercial everyone must choose their side. So pick up a bottle (or two) today.
- wowTwitter - That’s right wow fans…there is now a Twitter just for your WoW characters. You can go on and tweet as your char. Talk about what you’re doing in-game, whether it’s professions, leveling alts, running heroics or raiding your friends will be able to follow you and always know what your character is up to. Kind of cool, I think. You can visit the wowTwitter site and register your character and start wowTweeting today!
- Product Spotlight – The Ultimate WoW Guide is a must have for any gamer’s library. This amazing guide package includes everything you need in order to level your characters, earn tons of guide and reputation. No need to search for separate guides when you can have it all in one package. I’m amazed by the quality of Dugi’s guides, especially his new Dailies and events guide. It has made me loads of cash and reputation in a very little amount of time.
