    Note on Kil'jaeden loot : Nobody killed him yet, however he will most likely be the only one dropping ilvl 164 items. You can already check a few of them at the Sunwell vendor but I'll only list the 3 that really look like they drop from Kil'jaeden himself (based on their itemID mostly).
    Note on the "Pre-PTR Leak" : A lot of weapons stats have been leaked through this Sunwell Loot screenshot released before the PTR, so far nothing changed and you probably want to check it for items that aren't listed below yet.
    Note: Not all these items drop directly. Some of them are gained by exchanging one of the drops and a [item=34664] for a new item from the Shattered Sun Offensive vendor on the Sunwell Isle. These items are tagged with a (*).

    Weapon models
    Below are all the weapon models introduced in patch 2.4, 90% of the colors shown in these screenshots will never be used but it's a very good way to get an idea of the Sunwell weapons art. Thanks a lot to endarion for all his work on the screenshots.

[b]Fury of the Sunwell[/b]
<ul>
[*]The glorious fount of arcane energy known as the Sunwell empowered the high elves for millennia, until the death knight Arthas laid siege to the elven kingdom and corrupted its sacred energies. Seeing no other alternative, a band of survivors led by Prince Kael’thas destroyed the ancient fount. Over time the surviving elves fell pray to a crippling magical withdrawal.
    
    
Now, promising salvation for his people, Kael’thas has returned. Soon the Sunwell will shine once again, but whether the sacred fount will usher in deliverance or destruction remains to be seen.

[b]In Memoriam: Gary Gygax[/b]
<ul>
[*]Blizzard Entertainment would like to dedicate the patch in memory of Gary Gygax. His work on D&D was an inspiration to us in many ways and helped spark our passion for creating games of our own. As avid D&D players and fellow game developers, we were all saddened by the news of his passing; we feel we’ve lost a true adventuring companion.  Thanks for everything and farewell, Gary. You will be missed.

    Re: 2.4 Changes final compilation [Beta]

    nice sum up of all the stuff. Would it be possible to get a copy of this code of the post so I can sticky on our guild forum? just copying it makes it all sloppy looking.

  6. #6

    Re: 2.4 Changes final compilation [Beta]

    @Wildhorn : fixed
    @Tickalit : if you really don't want your guildmates to check this site, I guess you could get the code just by quoting my post, but it probably won't work on your guild forums.

    Is there a boss missing from the Sunwell boss list intentionally? Or is just not there because he has not been killed and there is no confirmed loot?

    Re: 2.4 Changes final compilation [Beta]

    thanks for the summary, handy reference indeed ^^

    i really can't see them adding a weapon called Muramasa to the game, this isn't FFXI... if it drops from Muru they could easily rename it for live with a pun out of his name though

  15. #15

    Re: 2.4 Changes final compilation [Beta]

    What about the Kael'Thas Heroic mount?

  16. #16

    Re: 2.4 Changes final compilation [Beta]
