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.

    Worst, Tier set, evar. Horrible all around. It's pathetic, I didn't expect such hideous and amateur stuff from "leader" like Blizzard. It's so bad, if they could, they should scrap these asap.

    Wow, I disagree with most people here. First, no one likes murlocks. So why the crap would us hunters want to wear them on our heads!?!?!? lol. Second, I like the paly gear. Sure it looks a little silly, but it's very classic to old rpg games, especially like final fantasy. For such a classic class like the paly, i think it's very classic and fitting. Although I could see paly tanks disliking it... fits more a healer spec.

    Will you be able to choose from the different color sets or what's up with that?

    I really hope I can choose the red set, looks pretty good. Not very keen on the pink one.

    Obviously Blizzard doesn't care, but the T11 sets get worse and worse. They're neither inspiring nor epic in any manner of either word.

    Can I have the T2 druid antlers back? or the T2.5 sand person helm back? ... /sarcasm.

    Seriously, TotalBiscut needs to blast the art guys for their T11 set art. Maybe that'll wake them up.

    It sucks to be most class's so far imo. I think all the new cata gear looks kinda lame. Vanilla and TBC had the best gear I think. Wrath and cata gear is just dumb...They need to fire who ever came up with that shitty gear.

    why do people feel sad for hunters? that set looks awesome.
    an Undead hunter will look great in that.

    The pally set isn't bad the helm just looks odd on a human. I'm sure it'll fit nicely on certain races and not on others, as is true with all set helms.

    hunter set is fail on so many levels. I wanna look badass, not look like a dead murloc shaman thing in a net

    I just dont see any reason why the armors cant actually look like cloth/leather/plate etc.. Like someone pointed out earlier here, theese look more like from stone than anything other. I mean common! whats the point of this designs? Are we going to wear space suits in next expansion?

    Maybe they just forcing us to play alts. Even the low level green items look much better than those. Especially weapons. I know this isnt about realism, but why the hell does all staff for caster look like even a warrior would have hard time even picking it up. seriously! Bring back the vanilla sets!

    I like this Hunter Tier, it actually LOOKS like something a hunter would wear

    the Paladin set looks plain :/ maybe because its missing the light effect BB wrote about, but still, the chest and gloves look plain < ___>

    Now, you might not be at all mad at me correcting your poor typing, but generally when people shout obscenities at each other on the internet, they're pissed off. So get mad, keep feeding me.
    Now you're just looking for trouble.

    OT, both sets look good imo, and nice to see the buffs on the melee classes.
    I think Boub or the blues forgot to post the buff on Mortal Strike, it def hits harder now post-hotfix.

    Looks like public beta is taking no prisoners, it's impossible in the next 2 months to become acclimated to the changes when there are going to be changes every week.

    Also lol @ the paladin Tier 5 remake, are they really that uncreative? It doesn't even look that much different.

    Paladins are for ROCK. Or rather, they are IN rock.

    MUCH BETTER!!!
    I agree. Covering up the troll's uglyness with cool hunter gear is a great improvement!
