  • sehr cool:


    In the future, Hunters will be able to use Master's Call while stunned.


    und was ich mir schon dachte:


    The exotic pets will be different from normal pets. Ideally they might even be a little bit better, but we're very hesitant to make them too good lest we see every hunter stampede over to the BM tree. Pets are supposed to be something important to all kinds of hunters, and the BM tree already offers some amazing pet buffs and synergy. We just don't want to overdo it with this talent.


    At the very least, the exotic pets will have a new family ability that will ideally be really useful in some situations. I'm making this one up, but imagine that since normal crabs have Pin, an exotic pet might have a Pin-like ability that did fire damage. Or imagine that you could tame a drake (you can't, because they aren't beasts) and that instead of lightning or fire breath, it had frost breath that could freeze an enemy, death knight style. Would this be useful? Probably. Does it make the 51-point talent mandatory? Ideally not. Though those 5 talent points aren't bad....


    As far as what happens if you have an exotic pet and respec, most likely the pet's talents will just reset. Yeah you get a free pet respec out of the deal, but it's not as if it's free since the hunter has to respec. Any exotic pets in the stable won't be lost, but you wouldn't be able to get them out of the stable either. If you have an exotic pet at the moment you respec, then it will probably be dismissed (but not abandoned) and you won't be able to summon it again, forcing you to go swap it into the stable. (Or abandon it if you're THAT kind of hunter.)


    hab auch mal im pet-talent calculator gespielt....die 5 extra punkte sind geil...;)

  • Leatherworking
    Drums now cause a Tinnitus effect, preventing affected targets from receiving beneficial effects from other drums for two minutes.

  • Wrath of the Lich King to be Released in 2008
    Shacknews reported that according to Mike Morhaime (Blizzard Entertainment's CEO), Wrath of the Lich King will be released between October and December 2008.


    "We have said that it will be coming out this year," Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime revealed in a conference call today. "I can tell you it's not coming in the July to September quarter."


    As for the Wrath of the Lich King beta, Morhaime noted that "testing is going very well." During the call, Morhaime also mentioned that 40% of the World of Warcraft subscribers that left for Age of Conan have since returned.

  • blizzard verleibt sich die beliebtesten add ons ein:


    The very first few features of the threat meter are here !


    Your % of threat (based on the member of the party with the highest threat on the monster) is now displayed in the scrolling combat text.
    Your % of threat is now displayed in the tooltips of monsters.
    According to the first reports, the threat is just sent to the client without any encoding now, it will be very easy to build mods to display the exact threat of each member of the raid in the future.

  • Was ist nun eigentlich aus den Beta Keys geworden?

  • With engineering being almost useless in PVE aside from the goggles and the repair bot, it seems that Blizzard are buffing engineering and giving them enchants.



    In World of Warcraft before The Burning Crusade was released, engineering was mostly a PVP profession with very little worth for a raider. What made engineering useful in raids was the repair bot.


    In The Burning Crusade, engineers were able to create unique headgear known as goggles that were very useful in both PVP and PVE. Engineers could also make potion injectors to combine 20 potions into one slot to free up bag-space but that was about it.


    Now it seems for Wrath of the Lich King that Blizzard wants to make engineering, a previously almost useless PVE profession, more used in PVE. You will be able to enchant your gloves with an on-use ability known as Hyperspeed Accelerators for 340 haste rating for eight seconds. Furthermore farmers will be happy to hear engineers will receive a Scrapbot that will buy anything for five minutes until he disappears.



    sind auch schon rezepte aufgetaucht für einen mobilen postkasten und was ich ja fast selber nicht glauben kann für einen auctioneer für 10 min bei dem man bieten kann denn....na da bin ich ja mal gespannt.

    Das Gebet der 80 jährigen:


    Oben klar und unten dicht...oh mein Gott...mehr will ich nicht... :D

  • With the release of Wrath of the Lich King approaching, we wanted to provide you with some important information. In preparation for the expansion, we will be issuing a new content patch in the coming weeks. Much like the patch made available shortly before The Burning Crusade's release, this content patch is designed to bridge current game content with that of the expansion and will contain some exciting changes and additions.


    We have outlined some of the larger features scheduled to release with the patch below:


    New class spells and talents
    Stormwind Harbor
    Barbershops in capital cities
    Zeppelin towers outside of Orgrimmar and Tirisfal Glades
    Two brand-new Arenas featuring challenging new layouts, terrain hazards, and moving obstacles
    Guild calendar
    Hunter pet skill revamp
    New profession: Inscription


    As mentioned above, this is not a comprehensive list, just some of the major highlights. We’ll post the full patch notes as soon as they’re available. Regarding Inscription, please note that all Burning Crusade players will be able to select Inscription as one of their two professions and level up to a skill level of 375 with it. Upon the release of Wrath of the Lich King, players who purchase and install the expansion will be able to continue leveling in Inscription and the other professions beyond 375.



    also wie zu bc zeiten....talente und skills sowie einige grundlegende sachen kommen schon mit einem patch vorher...;)

  • Da scheint schon ne S5 Waffe durchgesickert zu sein:


    http://static.mmo-champion.com…/august/arena2_2hmace.jpg


    Aber im Vergleich zur Naxx Waffe (http://static.mmo-champion.com…8/august/naxxramas_01.jpg)
    weitaus schlechter, wie atm der Vergleich zwischen PvE und PvP Waffen ist.


    Und ein Post zur Arena:
    We want to provide some information about the direction of the Arena system. Upon the release of Wrath of the Lich King, players will find they are still able to access the Arena system at level 70 for rated matches. Those competing in the Arenas at 70 will still be able to attain items using Arena points and rankings; however, we do not currently plan to offer new items or titles for this bracket. Players who level past 70 will have their Arena points reset to 0 and be removed from all Arena teams in the level-70 bracket.


    Two new skirmish brackets (71-75, 76-80) will be available for players who wish to hone their Arena skills while leveling in Northrend. Those who reach level 80 will once again have the opportunity to create new Arena teams and play in rated matches once a new season starts. New items, titles, and end-of-season rewards will be offered to the most successful teams at level 80. Additionally, the sets released for the Arenas in Wrath of the Lich King will no longer share aesthetic similarities with tiered raiding gear. We want those equipped with the best PvP rewards and those with the best raiding sets to stand out from each other. Players at level 80 will also have the opportunity to compete in two new Arenas featuring challenging new layouts, terrain hazards, and moving obstacles.
    Jawoll!
