Season 4 will reduce the prices of Season 3 gear
When Season 4 is out the requirements for obtaining Season 3 gear will be reduced.
There will be no changes to gear availability/rating requirement until Season 4 starts, which will not begin when patch 2.4 goes live.
When Season 4 starts here's what will happen:
- Season 1 removed
- Season 2 moved to honor
- Season 3 rating requirements and prices lowered
- Shoulders: 1950 rating
- Weapon: 1800 rating
- Season 4 gear added
Season 4 isn't expected to begin any time soon, but as always we plan to give at least a two week notice before it does. Stay tuned to these forums or any of your fine local fansites as I'm sure the information will spread fairly rapidly once we do announce a Season 4 start date.
[edit: Season 3 prices and Season 4 rating requirements are not yet announced. All information contained herein is of course, as always, subject to change.]
What about Season 1 being removed?
You get to keep your items of course, they'll just no longer be available for purchase from the vendors.
Level 70 reached in one day and two hours
Yesterday two players named Minerva and Athene on the Stormscale-EU realm managed to beat the previous record of reaching level 70. It took them 1 day, 2 hours, 31 minutes and 40 seconds. It's been said that they reached level 60 in only 14 hours.
Sources claim that a couple from the Blizzard staff was watching them.
First thing that comes to mind is how they did it. What kind of leveling plan did they use? Exactly what is the most efficent way of reaching level 70 the fastest. The questions are many and I'm sure there's many theories and ideas surrounding this subject.
Check out the screenshot below.

Mera_LaCroisadeEcarlatethe screenshot shows it took 5sec to go from lvl 69 to 70, so the question is , if that's not a private server nor a cheat , I do not see something other than a bug exploitation. Think yourself ... nobody is intented to gain 1 million XP in 5 sec. this is totally not possible and not wanted by blizzard .... 5sec is almost not enough or just enough to kill only 1x lvl 70 trash lolz....
