Haven't seen anything indicating Icecrown will be open, are you assuming from the mmo-champ news?

Well heard rumor it was going to be, at least the outside part, one way to find out since servers are up

[HAcoreRD]

so, all patches are done, i log in, no servers to access.

Yeah the general forums is goin about 50 posts per 30 seconds of "I can't login" and 'servers down"

Some people saying theirs a new mage spell.. lv80 "mirror images"... should be interesting if its actually a player spell!

Hardiness is being changed to a 15% duration reduction on stuns. In fact, the next update (not today's) will have a large number of changes to racials.

Trolls did gain The Voodoo Shuffle. I'll elaborate later.

They finally gave affliction warlocks critting DoTs (corruption and UA only), but it's an extra 3-point tier 8 talent, making the tree hideously bloated when combined with the shadow's embrace change. It's impossible to pick up grim reach, destructive reach, or curse of exhaustion without gimping yourself.

Skettis. And yes fuck those birds and their one hit 70 damage instant Daze/Dismount that craters you.

well, was fun playing death knight. i ended up losing a duel, a winged guy ressed me, then it zoned me for some reason, and it wont go past loading screen

That quest is to fight the npc's not other players (surprised they haven't reworded that yet).
the npc's are super easy to beat

You may be stuck because of the current beta server instability atm...

and randomly...

I deleted the character and remade to get around the glitch, and naturally reported it.

Fun though

Storm peaks closed again, lol.

Server crashes every 30 seconds.

Got a peek at Dalaran though, my eyes really appreciate how they brightened up the graphics in there. Makes it look 10x better.

Server's restarting. good time to go to bed

Ah did they improve it further from the video I made of it in 8885? I would check but we all know how that would turn out. I haven't been able to move from my spot even if i logged in and mad clicked my hearth.

Note; For the love of god don't go to ebon hold... you may never get out O_o

I'm not sure exactly if they improved it or not. But I'm 100% positive they changed the Video Settings a bit. I've always had the settings at the minimum levels aside from Spell Detail... Everything ingame looks like the settings are heightened, yet the settings still say they are at the lowest.

edit: lol guess what's tameable @ http://www.bigredkitty.net/

edit2: It looks like DoT Crits aren't flashing numbers , basically you see an extra shadowbolt shoot out of your body when it crits, dealing a double tick... which is still cool in it's own way.

The set pieces for the 10 man Naxx are out.

Hunter set has alot of Haste on it o.o

All the sets look pretty well itemized though

[Correction]

I see that socket bonuses continue to be fairly pointless...

The only pet I'm excited about is the arctic cub

GG bliz. First they change steady shot making BM hunters sit practically at the 1-1 shot rotation cap. Then they release gear with a lot of haste. Way to up and screw over a talent build. I mentioned how haste would be bad a few pages ago for BM, looks like they read my post and made sure it would happen.
