Nothing below is confirmed yetWe won't see the argent dawn in Northrend ... Weird, there are tons of undead here. Who the hell could help killing them ? Tirion Fordring will reorder and lead the Silver Hand in Northrend ... with the help of [item=13262] ! Which means that the sword could perfectly not be available to players. Actually, according to screenshots from the Blizzcon found on the web, he's wielding it in Valgarde !! This would also confirm the huge hint "We are considering going back to Naxx when we get to Northrend" during the Raid & Dungeon panel.

Blizzard has been a real c-tease with Ashbringer. NPC's have mentioned it since beta, and every time Blizzard talks about it they seem to only push it back. There's more lore behind Ashbinger than any other item in-game. It will be interesting to see how this pans out; I've been thinking that it may end up being the one thing that can defeat the Lich King. Ashbringer at wowwiki.

Wasn't Tirion Fordring banished from The Order of the Silver Hand and stripped of his powers for assaulting soldiers after assisting Eitrigg? Gonna be a nice storyline incoming

Gonna be a nice storyline incoming  He was, but an old quest chain in EPL has the player take disguise as a member of the Scarlett Crusade to help bring around his son, Highlord Taelen Fordring, to how corrupted the Scarlet Crusade had become. The event culminates in Taelen's death at the hands of Inquisitor Isilliean (sp?) after a brief confrontation. Tirion avenges his son's death by slaying the inquisitor and swears an oath to resurrect the Silver Hand.

So The Order of the Silver Hand is being led by a powerless Paladin, seems a bit farfetched to me.

So The Order of the Silver Hand is being led by a powerless Paladin, seems a bit farfetched to me. He's not powerless. They stripped him of his rank and position and claimed they stripped him of his power. While they were able to do the first and second, but it is beyond them to strip him of his power, for it was not a power given to him by the leaders of the Order of the Silver Hand, but from something far greater. They merely taught him how to tap into that power. Afterwards, he was shown to still have the ability to tap into the Holy Light, since he maintained the true meaning of being a Paladin by staying true to his word in the face of opposition. His strength of character is well worthy of one who should lead the reborn Order.

@Ultramonkey Though a ceremony to strip Tirion of his power was performed, it failed for unknown reasons. See Tirion Fordring @ WoWWiki for "The Eitrigg Incident".

powerless Paladin
Redundant. Three cheers for possibly doing something with Naxx. Oh and my main is a Paladin.

Would be great if Eitrigg went to Northrend and there was an event where they fought side by side.

Melee: Thunderfury Sulfuron Warblade 1 Warlblade 2
Hunter: nothing confirmed yet
Caster: Atiesh
Healers: Atiesh
Why should they implement a new legendary melee weapon? Atiesh: 4 Classes had to reach end content, before BC comes out, to battle for 1 legendary!!! this was maybe possible for 0.0001% of all wow players Sulfuron/Thunderfury: were spread out for nearly everyone, because you had 2 years time to loot it. there were 100 of it on every server. illidan warblades: same thing as atiesh, but again, melee weapon
i see no reason, why you should speculate about another legendary for the same classes, like everytime
there is still no - shadowpriest legendary - hunter legendary - restor pally legendary - restor shamane legendary - moonkin legendary and nearly unreachable caster/healer legendarys in old content
why should they have plans to implement a new fifth warrior legendary?
ya blabla retri pally, that doenst changes anything of the problem

With the Naxxaramas Patch, we learned that Lord Fordring founded the Brotherhood of the Light. See the conversation at the table in Light's Hope Chapel for proof. Something to the effect of "I will inform Lord Fordring and his knights that you are no longer here on friendly terms. I'm sure that would be happy to see to your atonement"
Also, if you pay attention to the story he tells you learn that he never lost his powers of the Light.

That quote (which you paraphrased) is said by Eligor Dawnbringer to Scarlet Commander Marjhan. The Fordring being referred to is his Taelan Fordring (the Scarlet Highlord), as Marjhan reports to him and not Tirion (who is not part of the Scarlet Crusade). Dawnbringer is threatening to reveal the alliance that Marjhan made with AD and BoL behind Taelan's back. "Now be silent and note where you are, lest I inform Lord Fordring and his knights that you are no longer here on amicable terms. I am certain he would take great pleasure in seeing to your 'atonement.'" -Eligor Dawnbringer

So there should be legendaries for every spec for every class? and when Hand of Ragnaros was obtainable, Molten Core was end-game and all legendaries have been like that, casters were just unlucky for Naxx to be the final 40 man raid before TBC.

Well, seems like they destroyed one of the reason why I planned to buy the expansion... Man I hoped that they really implement it in BC, but there was still hope that it may make it into the next xp and now that.
To all those hunters out there, for me they could just do an epic version of the cleansed Ashbringer, it doesn't even have to be state of the art, give it 130 dps so you can use it for levelling (check Jin'rokh of Zul'Aman with 128 DPS + 100 AP) I just want that they finish the storyline...
[sarcasm on Oh just to add some whinage, there is still no reliable possibility for Warriors to solo those trees in Skettis without a healer on my neck so don't cry little hunterboy [sarcasm off]
