Latest WotLK News
- Heavy Frostweave Bandage Manual - Among other changes Blizzard also altered the way first aid is learned in Northrend. Instead of making a trip to the trainer or buying a book from a vendor or the AH, you must get lucky enough to get the BoP book to drop from mobs in various places accross Northrend. We have noticed that once you hit about 75 it seems to drop like crazy in Drak'Tharon Keep, it also drops occasionally for lowere leveled players, too. You must have a first aid skill of at least 400 to read the book and a minimum of a 390 to even pick it up. Why they decided to do it this way remains a mystery, but hopefully this information helps a bit.
- Wrath is Just Right - Hardcore raiders out there played through all the PvE content in a few days and many of us are wondering, is Wotlk too easy or too small? Blizzard poster "Ghostcrawler" says, "We wanted to make sure players actually ran the level-up dungeons and we wanted to make sure players didn't hit the introductory raid content like a brick wall. Those are both good things, in our mind." So basically, they didn't want to make the same mistake they made when the BC expansion was released. I think we will see some much tougher raid content arrive with future patches as we all know Blizzard has it in them!
- Champion = Denied - The achievement Champion of the Frozen Wastes is currently bugged. The acheivement calls for you to kill all 5 and 10 man bosses and heroic bosses present in WotLK at launch. The problem is that it does not list Malygos as a required boss even though he is. So, if you didn't get your achievement after completing all listed bosses, go kill Malygos and you'll have it then. Hopefully they will fix this soon.

- TwentyFifthNovember Defeats Malygos - Mere days after launch this UberGuild created from a merger of two of the worlds best raiding guilds (SK Gaming & Nihilum) have defeated all current PvE raid content. Hmm...this means that within a few days of launch a guild has leveled to max (although not all players were 80) and defeated all available raid content?! I think Blizz may have tuned things down a bit too much.
- Queues - The queues on some severs are just crazy. People are waiting hours to get in which is very annoying. Are Blizzard is doing this on purpose so we don't forget about our real lives and all end up fat, smelly and covered in zits like those poor kids from South Park! All joking aside, we know the queues can be frustrating and Blizzard recognizes this problem, too. So for a limited time they are allowing free character transfers from high population realms to low and mid population realms. For a complete list and an explanation on how it works, click here.
- WotLK Upgrade Now Available for Download - You can now buy account upgrade keys and download the game client for Wrath of the Lich King. If you have not already done so, this would definitely be the quickest and most convenient way to upgrade so you too can join us on our adventure in Northrend! Click here for more details.
- The DK Infestation - I don't know how many of you have returned to Outland for one reason or another lately, but when I traveled to Shatt the other day it was absolutely infested with Death Knights! They were everywhere! This is obviously a novelty...the new class and all, but I wonder how many of these players will abandon their old classes and stick with the Death Knight? Have you tried out the new class? If so, will you play it for a bit and then return to your previous favorite or are you fully converted and destined to be a hardcore DK forever?

- The Zombies of Azeroth - Ok, so whether you loved the zombies or hated the zombies we thought everyone should appreciate the other things which arrived with them (but didn't all leave with them) so here's a link to some of the things you may have been too annoyed to notice!
- Raid Farming Post 3.0.2 - Well nothing on the surface changed too drastically with the release of the Echoes of Doom patch, but everything sure got a whole lot easier when it comes to the previously uber-leet raids. Ok, not so much that you can go in and one shot everything with a below average PuG, but enough that fights which used to be very complex have become much more doable and the fights that were fairly simple before actually make us chuckle a bit when that wave of nostalgia comes over us as we remember how hard they used to be. Of course some base knowledge of how the boss' abilities work are still quite necessary for runs through Sunwell or Black Temple but the fights are nowhere near as difficult!
- Guild Achievements - The Blizzard poster Tigole said on the beta suggestion forums this week that the developers are very interested in the idea of Guild achievements and they plan to visit them in the future. I personally think this would be really cool, but there would be a ton of things to iron out like what to do if someone switches guilds...do they take the achievements with them? So it will be interesting to see what they come up with for this.
- Dude, Where's my Title? - Well, here's a nice little oops for ya, the season 4 arena titles were awarded incorrectly! From the tippy-top teams getting only the title of "Duelist" when they should be receiving "Brutal Gladiator" and the Netherdrake pets to players with a 2100 rating earning only the "Challenger" title. Blizzard is investigating the problem and will hopefully have it all sorted out shortly.
- Product Spotlight - Penn's Ultimate Professions Guide has recently been updated to include the new Inscription Profession including farming maps, recipes in the order you should make them, how to make tons of gold with ANY profession.
