New Expansion Info on MMO-Champion!
MMO-Champion
has just posted an announcement with all of the currently known information about the upcoming expansion:
World of Warcraft - Cataclysm!
This information
is
considered speculation, as it has not been officially confirmed by Blizzard, but Boubouille at MMO-Champion doesn't usually post something unless he's pretty sure and so far he's rarely been wrong. Some of the recently-gathered information includes: the new
level cap
(you'll be surprised!), as well as new
race/class combinations
!
You can read the entire thread
here
.
Thoughts?
Do you think this is going to be the big announcement Blizzard plans on releasing at Blizzcon 2009?

Argent Tournament Guide v2.0 (or 3.2?)
This guide is a continuation of the old
Argent Tournament Guide
. The
Secrets of Ulduar
brought us quite an event - quests, daily quests, unique rewards, Seals system...and now the
Call of the Crusade
expands that. Most of the 3.2 content requires you to have obtained the title Crusader through
Campione d'Argento Osannato dell'Alleanza
or
Campione d'Argento Osannato dell'Orda
, while the others only need you to be Exalted with either
The Sunreavers
or
The Silver Covenant
. If you are new to the Argent Tournament, please visit the first part of the guide for details, guides and detailed explanation of the mechanics, quests and rewards.

The Return of Onyxia—Patch 3.2.2
That's right—
Onyxia
will be making her return in Patch 3.2.2, scheduled to be released in honor of World of Warcraft's fifth anniversary!
To give you a basic rundown, Blizzard's plans are
Converting
Antro di Onyxia
into a level 80 raid, with both 10 and 25 man modes.
Changing the current loot to par with its level 60 version to a level 80 version. Presumably, there will be a loot table for both 10 and 25 man modes.
Adding a flying mount with 310% flying speed named
Redini del Draco di Onyxia
to the loot table. Modeled after Onyxia itself, the mount is expected to have a low drop rate.
Changing to the level of difficulty so that it scales from its difficulty at level 60 to level 80. This means those who enjoyed Onyxia's challenge should not see a change in difficulty—essentially, it just scales up to level 80!
But that's not all! Once the fifth anniversary of WoW begins, players who log on during this time will receive a limited edition pet named , similar to how players who logged on during the fourth anniversary received a
Cucciolo d'Orso della Blizzard

The official
Live
Official 3.2 Thread!
Double Edit:
That'll teach me to try going out to dinner on patch day! Blizzard has
confirmed
that faction restrictions on PvP servers have been removed, apparently as part of their transition into offering a
Faction Change
service. The post is here:
http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=19110291048&sid=1
Edit:
So an interesting article on
WoW.com
indicates that faction restrictions on pvp servers are currently disabled, and users can now create characters of any faction on a pvp server, no matter what characters they already have. No word yet on whether this is intentional—it certainly isn't in the patch notes.
So here's the official thread, y'all! 3.2 is today!
Here then, is a centralized location—to discuss changes, express your irritation at the nerfs, or to rail at Blizzard for not being able to get their serve

Q&A Crusaders' Coliseum + Isle of Conquest
Looks like the class Q&A were popular enough to make Blizzard create non-class Q&A as well :) I don't know about you, but I feel better seeing that all those questions we ask on the forums are being read, and some of them - even answered. Publicly.
This time it's a combined Q&A about the
Crusaders' Coliseum
(the new 5-, 10-, and 25-man dungeons) and the
Isle of Conquest
(the new Battleground).
I myself didn't find a terrible lot of new information in this Q&A, but it helps to see all those thing put together by somebody from Blizzard. Follow the link to the WoW-Europe forums, or read on to find out what

New Icons in PTR Build 10083
Build 10083 of the PTR was released today. In it were some small updates to spells, but nothing extravagant. I was about to end my day in The Datamines when I came across a rare boss: Iconus! As you know, you almost never see Iconus unless a new version of WoW is on the horizon, so when I saw him I was eager to take advantage of the opportunity. The skull beside his portrait worried me, but I had leveled many times since our last encounter and I figured I could take him down by myself.
I was wrong.
I gathered as many guild members as I could and we went back into The Datamines. 42 wipes, 250g in repairs, and plenty of cursing later, we downed Iconus. Nearly salivating, I looted his corpse... and found
1
new icon. :(
Furthermore, it was not an upgrade for any of us. However, it is Bind on Equip. Who wants it?

PTR Build 10072 Goodies, Supplemental
Some of you may recall that Malgayne
asked industrious PTR users to send us their World of Warcraft cache files
so we could mine them for the proverbial 'tasty dataz'. Well,
Teza

Wowraid
was kind enough to hook us up with some cache files that contained another

The Crusader's Coliseum!
Well the updates are just coming fast and furious now. The latest update is about the newest tier in raid content—tier 9—to be released in Patch 3.2!
Apparently the next raid tier to come out will be the Crusaders' Coliseum. No info released yet on what the actual encounters will be like, but there have been a few interesting tidbits—apparently there will be four difficulty levels on this one: a normal and heroic 10-man, and a normal and heroic 25-man. They're unlocking one encounter at a time, one per week, Sunwell-style. They're ALSO creating a system (which has already generated some controversy) which limits the number of attempts you get on each boss per raid lockout, and increases the quality of rewards based on how many "tries" you have left when you down him.
Add in a new 5-man dungeon that rewards
Sigillo del Campione
s, and new Alliance-only and Horde-only skins for gear, and this one sounds ESPECIALLY interesting. The blue post is after the break!

Shaman Changes in 3.2
Mount changes...check!
Class mount spells changes...check!
Profession changes...check!
Class changes...class changes...loading...check now!
That's right, Call of the Crusade is getting juicier and juicier! Must be because of the word "crusade" in it...crusade -- paladins -- awesomeness! Hmm...
Anyway, it looks like the Shamans are getting some love now. I myself have a shaman, and one of the most annoying things in the world (you can all confirm that) is dropping totems, pulling them back, dropping again, making sure none of them is dead, and if there is one, drop it again... It's a pain, brothers and sisters! Well, Blizzard has heard our cries of pain, and is about to make our lives a whole lot easier -- the
totem bar
awaits us in 3.2, along with spells like
Call of Fire
, which
drops all of our totems at once
, Totemic Call being renamed to
Call of Earth
; and two more,
Call of Air
and
Call of Water
, which work like the Fire one, just using different presets of totems.

Profession Changes (Buffs) in 3.2
Looks like Patch 3.2,
Call of the Crusade
, will a patch that brings joy and happiness to many, if not all of us. After the
Argent Tournament Changes
, now we get Profession Changes! Long story short, all of the professions are being buffed.
On a slightly side note, a lot of information starts to leak. Something like this happened about...I believe 2 months before
The Secrets of Ulduar
was released. Do you think we can expect 3.2 around the end of the summer?

Argent Tournament Changes in 3.2
Update - Check the second quote panel.
Content patch 3.1 brought us not only Ulduar and its secrets, but the Argent Tournament as well - a place where brave heroes of both the Alliance and the Horde fought and still fight for recognition from the Argent Crusade. But more important than any of that (for many players) were the nice rewards - weapons on par with Heroic loot, mounts, pets, tabards, banners... and in the upcoming patch,
even moar
! New seal-rewarding dailies, new mounts, pets, tabards, heirloom items, and even a (costly) upgrade for your squire! In exchange of 150 Seals, your loyal follower will be able to serve as bank, mailbox or vendor!

Isle of Conquest Preview
Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin, Eye of the Storm, Strand of the Ancients, Warsong Gulch...and soon the
Isle of Conquest
.
Blizzard have finally released some info about their new battleground, to be launched in the next major content patch - 3.2, Call of the Crusade. Apparently the events from the Wrathgate, Undercity, the Broken Front, and a few other locations of conflict have led to something very close to all-out war between the Alliance and the Horde. Even places of no clear significance have become contested zones, certain areas of which are literally ravaged by war! One such place will be the Isle of Conquest, a small island somewhere in the Frozen Sea.
