Breath of the Black Prince
To go along with the new The Black Prince faction there are some quests that end with the reward of a legendary item, the Breath of the Black Prince! This item is likely used to upgrade your gear in some way. Before helping Wrathion, you first share a drink with him while talking about the future of Azeroth.
The first quest in the series requires an honored reputation level, which is earned by killing the mogu and mantid in the Townlong Steppes and the Dread Wastes, as well as any raid creatures.
At some point after this he will reward you with a Breath of the Black Prince, but the quests are not chained yet, so we can't be certain as to what the requirements are.
According to the quest descriptions he seems heavily invested in the fate of Pandaria, even hinting towards the oncoming Horde and Alliance war fleets that will turn the beach of Krasarang Wilds into a battlezone in Patch 5.1.

Bonus Level-90 Arena Pass Realm
In addition to granting access to the exclusive level-85 Arena Pass realm, players will also gain access to the special level-90 competition when the realm reopens a few weeks after Mists of Pandaria launches. This means that Arena Pass subscribers who have purchased the expansion will be able to access level-90 gear and talents, and be able to take a level-90 monk into the Arena with top level gear.
Players who purchase an Arena Pass and participate in the competition can earn an Armored Murloc in-game pet. The top players will also contend for a chance to achieve the “Vanquisher” title for their live characters.
If you would like to demonstrate your Arena prowess, are eager for a chance to earn exclusive loot, or just want to reserve a spot in the level-90 Mists of Pandaria Arena Pass realm, the time to register is now!

They have only killed the Skeleton King at this point. Do note that up to the Skeleton king is only part of the first act and they still have lots of the game to go till they complete act 1.
Another point to be made is that this is a group of fully co-ordinated, skilled, dedicated and hardcore gamers who have been playing regularly since the moment of release. It will take quite a while longer for the average player and even most seasoned gamers to reach this point. That being said, it's amazing to see the speed in which they have reached this stage of the game, but remember that the hardest is yet to come...

Meh, I prefer to take my time, soak up the atmosphere, listen to the story, and loot every single damn barrel I find.
But yeah, as others here have said, completing normal mode is by no means finishing the game... It's just the start. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
Diablo 3 Beaten in 6 Hours That's the problem... people are used to playing Skyrim
You can beat Skyrim in a few hours if your intent is to rush to the end of the game as fast as possible. You can beat the original Super Mario Bros in 5 minutes.
If your intent is to simply race to the end of the game as quickly as possible I'm sure you can complete Normal difficulty in very little time. If your intent is to take your time and enjoy it, stop worrying about what people rushing to the end of the game think.
Luckily, unlike other games, regardless of how quickly you want to rush to the end, the near-limitless content provided through randomized events, dungeons, enemies and items (and their random drop chance) mean that you'll be able to play for years to come. Welcome to Diablo III, please enjoy. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
Diablo III Giveaway
The "Race to the Finish" is not the only Diablo III contest Curse is holding. Curse is also giving away some Diablo III SteelSeries gear such as the Diablo III Headset, Mouse and Limited Edition Mousepad. Head over to the official content page to enter!
The Daily Blink - The 37th Circle of Hell The Daily Blink gives us an overview of the Diablo Launch!
what's your problem with players who beat the content fast? You can't do it so you don't have to worry.
i think the problem is that people bitch and moan about it being too short after they've skipped everything that could possibly be skipped, which of course is gonna make the game a much shorter.
What Blizzard refuses to understand is that having a game where more than ten million people are all super special awesome saviors of Azeroth who are bought drinks by a vaguely racist caricature that discusses SEKRIT BACKROOM INFOZ with them makes it a lot less impressive and interesting.
Why is method mentioned for Butcher, but not Kripp's team who reported way earlier.
They sent me their video first.
Method got it down 4:20am CEST as recorded on their blog post, which is 10pm EST. Kripp's team got it down at 6:30 EST, as shown by his in-game clock (I can verify this as I was watching his livestream when they got the kill).
So Kripp has better performance and worse marketing. That happens on internet.
From my understanding, it will work like the VP system in Mists but instead, the item level boost goes through the roof and it only works for certain pieces of gear (In this case, Sha-Touched equipment).
I also like how Wrathion is now, like he said, an adventurer.... just waiting for that arrow...
I understand that WoW news is slow lately but D3 news would be better kept only at the diablofans site and I think there's always at least some WoW news going on. Maybe it's just me though.
I'm inclined to agree. If I wanna know about Diablo 3, I can always check diablofans...
