Experience to be lowered for Wotlk

Tigole replied to a forum post on the beta forums concerning the experience gained between 60-70. Just like when Blizzard reduced the experience gained during levels 20-60 sometime after The Burning Crusade was released. Obviously this was a smart move because not only does it take forever to reach level 70, but it will give players not yet 70 a more better chance of experiencing Wotlk content when everyone else is enjoying it. Plus don’t forget about Death Knights, i’m sure Blizzard wants to see how they will adjust on the live realms.

Yes, we’re planning on speeding up leveling in the 60-70 range. Keep the feedback coming. We are still adjusting it. Let us know what levels you are in what areas in this bracket.

New Mount and Vanity Pet Storage

Wryxian over at the official WoW-Europe forums posted some very interesting news concerning mounts and vanity pets. It looks as if they will no longer take up any bag space, but instead act as spells

We’re pleased to announce a convenient upgrade to the way that mounts and vanity pets are handled in Wrath of the Lich King.

Players will be able to “learn” a mount or non-combat pet much like learning a spell, recipe, or new ability, and these creatures will then show up on a new Pet tab within the Character Info section of the interface. Players will be able to access and preview their learned mounts and vanity pets through this tab.

Once learned, the pet icon or mount icon will no longer appear in bag spaces or bank spaces. This inventory space will be made available once again for other adventuring needs. Pets can still be set to hotkeys by dragging them to the hotkey bar, much like any other spell or ability.

Lore: The Scarlet Onslaught

The Scarlet Crusade has always interested me, but its not until recently that the lore behind them has pulled me in. We all have had our share of SM runs for countless reasons. For me I have always loved running this instance for the soul fact of why they are in the Warcraft Universe.

Little by little I have found information regarding them in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion, although they are moving to Northrend and renaming themselves The Scarlet Onslaught.

Wrath of the Lich King Talent Preview

Blizzard finally released the new Wotlk talent trees, officially. I must say, I am definitely pleased with the Warlock talents. It is going to be interesting to see what Metamorphosis can really do. I’m not exactly sure if I am going to leave the Destruction/Affliction tree for it though. You can also check out the talents for the highly anticipated hero class, the Death Knight.

WWI & BlizzCon Beta Codes

Lucky day for those who attended the 2008 Worldwide Invitational or the 2007 BlizzCon. There is official word that those who attended are able to use their beta codes right away. Quoted straight from Wryxian on the official WoW-EU forums.
