New Expansion Announcement 8/6

Ooo. Finally some druid love!

Fangs of the First Nightsaber - Feral and Guardian druids customize the look of their form rather than a weapon. Spectral, Armored, and other variants will be available. Base cat form also getting an updated model.

GHOST COYOTL WILL BE HAPPENING!
(Assuming this will be somewhat easy for alts to attain.)

Honor System
Gear playing such a huge factor in PvP isn't great.
PvP talent system will help to balance PvP independently from PvE. Abilities only work in PvP.
You unlock more and more, giving you more options as you PvP more.
Abolish Magic - Dispel all magic every 2 sec for 6 sec. Replaces Dispel Magic. 20 sec cooldown.
Blood and Soil - Shaman talent take reduces Bloodlust cooldown, only works for you when cast.
Mind Quickness - add 15% haste
Necrotic Strike - Absorbs heals on the enemy target.
Prestige Ranks - You can reset your honor level and do it again for cosmetic rewards. This is extra rewards for players that do a lot of PvP.
You can earn a badge for your unit frame that shows your rank, special mounts, and PvP Artifact variants.

Cautiously approving, prepared to be VERY DISAPPOINT. Blizzard has never shown themselves to improve PvP except by accident (making Tanaan and Tol Barad questing zones).

I thought Winterspring was good. Their #1 problem seems to be queue times - if the mercenary thing works, that might be the trick.

50 talents is too many though, it will be hard to balance unless 45 of them are things like:
You get 1% more haste
You get 1% more crit
like they did with the levelling bonii in WoD.

Also, Warlocks get a whole world, shaman get a cave. Suck it, Thrall.

Image shows 36 talents. The first looks like it is the PVP medallion, so they might not be all traditional talents. The image shown is for shaman, and tier three is a choice between three totems. It's possible that the honor tree is fixed for a class, not by spec.

I think this looks pretty awesome! I'm excited for it!

[Riplie]

Really want to hate it, but demon hunter and the fact they look like they are going back. It gets a chance but i am keeping a close eye.

Yeah - 50 levels, 36 talents? Not clear.

So, whoever combined the threads.... now the factual information is buried deep under leak rumors.

Which is why I started a second thread... :(

I have undone what has been done to the threads.

Thank you, Awatu. :)
