2.3 next Tuesday, Season 3 November 20th!

Big news in regards to 2.3's release! According to WoWInsider, 2.3 is releasing in Taiwan on November 15th, which likely means that it will be releasing in North America on Tuesday, November 13th and in Europe on Wednesday, November 14th. There's also a new PTR build going up tonight, so keep an eye out for any possible updates on that.

UPDATE: 2.3 release on November 13th has been confirmed on the North American forums. Season 3 will be starting on November 20th, exactly one week after the release of 2.3. Thanks to GodzFire for the tip!

UPDATE #2: Melee Weapon Racials for Humans and Orcs were changed to Expertise for that specific weapon.

Melee Weapon Racial Changes

In other news, there are a few noteworthy blue posts today, so here's a quick recap.

No major changes to Azeroth with Wrath of the Lich King.

While changes to the original continents are always possible, we don’t have any current plans to make drastic changes or update any dungeons for max level players beyond Naxxramas.

2.2 Farmer's Broom model is a bug.

The model in 2.2 was a bug. It has been changed back to the correct model.

Earning old PvP titles probably won't ever be possible again.

It's not something we've made a final decision on, and we're definitely taking into account what the old honor rank titles mean, and certainly what they required. As far as I'm aware they aren't planned to be implemented for anything yet, and we have been seriously considering just leaving them as "legacy" type titles, leaving them unused forever more, that not only show your participation in a difficult PvP ranking system, but also to show you're owld skewl. As I said there's been no final determination though, and if we feel there's a way for the titles to become available again without diminishing the efforts of the original holders of them, we may still consider it.

Secrets in the Cities?!

So what secrets have you found in the cities?


Finally, an amazing new fan wallpaper was released on the official site called "Cloud Sky." This wallpaper depicts a Human Female Priest standing next to a tree in Nagrand with a beautiful skyline behind her. Check it out below!

    "Put see invis on and you'll see the ghostly inhabitants of the Ruins of Lordaeron as well."

    bah, known this for a while. :P i enjoy standing around on my BE lock and buffing people as they run through... because 9/10 stop and freak out because they haven't seen before.

    anyway, as for 2.3 next tuesday... should be interesting. so many horrible issues with it still on the PTR. i definitely don't think they've tested it enough.

    have fun in ZA if you're geared like they say you should (aka in kara drops). :) at least until they get it properly tuned.

    The old honor ranks would be nice to have back, all they need to do is allow one to buy the ranks, having it dependent upon your current level->hks->honor points-> amount of marks-> whether you completed the AV quests, etc. That would be a nice re-addition to the honor system.

    Excited for the early release, good stuff!
