Omnitron Defense System in Blackwing Descent
Halfus Wyrmbreaker in The Bastion of Twilight

Blackwing Descent is a raid zone with an entrance located along the side of Blackrock Mountain.
The Bastion of Twilight's entrance is located within Twilight Highlands.

Since these are the beta realms, this schedule is subject to change at a moment's notice due to bugs and server issues. More raid tests will be occurring over the next few weeks.

What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been

I have a slight update to spread to the masses. We are going to be adding a hotfix for the achievement What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been. This hotfix will make it so that obtaining the Reins of the Violet Proto-Drake will award players Master riding.

The way in which 310% will be awarded is going to be a little quirky at first, but we plan to make it a more smooth process in a future patch. For now, you will need 280% flying in order to learn to use the Violet Proto-Drake. Once you mount the drake for the first time it will teach Master riding. The only catch is that you have to dismount and mount the drake again in order for 310% speed to take effect.

Spell Changes
A lot of these changes are most likely the hotfixes we saw on live servers. They probably do not reflect how Blizzard wants to build classes at 85 and I will punch you in the face if you whine about it on forums. Seriously, I will.

If you look at it closely, most of these changes are just proper documentation of the changes announced on live servers earlier this week.

    Son, you got a Murloc on your head . . .


    Pally:
    Looking like a Power Ranger, Bubble Hearthing, and spamming FoL is no way to go through life son.

    Finally they make a decent righteous looking paladin set, and then make me ragequit my paladin healer because of the retarded proccy power mechanics.

    Hmm

    Fury Swipes
    Melee Range
    Instant cast
    When you auto-attack while in Cat form or Bear form, you have a 0% chance to cause a Fury Swipe dealing 200% weapon damage. This effect cannot occur more than once every 3 sec.

    0% chance?

    I remember the eggs being huge. I liked it. Maybe my memory is fuzzy or something.

    Could we get the Pally T11 without the helm on, me thinks it will make it look better.

    But overall, I like it.

    Are you serious? he looks like he fell into a pile of garbage, popped his head up and said "Nah, that's ok, i'll just wear this" It's a failure on every level.

    The hunter set looks really nice, especially the one in the middle row.
    Paladin set... is okay I guess, but the helmet is goofy.
