Cataclysm Beta - Build 12759
A new build is being deployed on beta realms, just like any beta build, it will be painful, a lot of stuff will break, and I have no idea if I'll be able to give you all the content on the first day.

On the upside, Thrall is getting a new model. Stay tuned for changes!


Nemesis in Hyjal looks really nice too.


Guild Vendor Rewards
The Guild Vendor is here, a lot of items are placeholders but it should give you a pretty good idea of what it will offer.


And if you're wondering.



Loading Screens
Loading screens for each continent have been updated.




Spellbook - Mounts and Companion Pets
The Mounts & Companion Pets are now in the spellbook with a brand new interface.



Tol Barad
Tol Barad is open for testing, this is a new outdoor/PvP zone with a daily quest area for the faction controlling it. More on that later.





310% Speed Flying Mount
The new 310% Speed Flying Mount skill costs 5000 gold to train. People who already own a 310% flying mount get it for free.



Relic Slots Items
All classes items in the relic slot now have stats.



Masteries and Armor Specialization
Masteries and Armor Specializations are now available for testing.



Holy Power
The interface for the new Holy Power resource is here.



Video Settings
The Video Settings menu has been expanded, looks like we'll be able to tweak more things in Cataclysm.



Creature Damage Output Changes

We’d like to get your feedback about how combat feels with creatures in level 80-85 exterior zones, including spawn rates and numbers of creatures in specific locations in each zone. Please let us know if this feels adequately challenging, or if there is a little too much face rocking going on.

    Exactly.

    Still I want those new Azeroth loading screens a little more updated: Goblin and Worgen leaders plz!!

    Thrall looks a LOT better what he was before Cataclysm

    I like how Thrall spontaneously got 30 to 40 years older. It is to bad he is not exactly unique. Sort of a copy and paste updated model of the WC3 Far Seer. Yes I know that is what class Thrall is.

    There is this crazy possibility that all of this is still in beta and not yet finalized. But that's just a crazy, impossible idea.

    Unbelievable o_O 21 pages of QQ and yay about Thrall's new model /facepalm
  1. mordale's Avatar
    well hes been using reused models from beta to now.
  1. Whednesday's Avatar
    So it's been 15 hours or so since the last update of the front page. Still no class updates or new talent calculator. Did somebody have a stroke at their keyboard or is this just how long things will take from now on with the new patching method?

    But no, seriously, I'm kinda worried. Has Boubouille just been made the principle subject of the next Bourne movie, or something?

    You want class changes? I give you class changes!

    Dunno if it has been mentioned before, but you're now able to learn glyphs - this allowing you to switch between them, without deleting the current ones.

    There's the link to the loading screen. Also comes with an item link.

    The goblin/worgen on their respective images ruin it. They're pretty poor quality images when compared to the likes of Garrosh, Sylvanas and Velen - they stand out because of this..

    That's Maeiv(sp?). She was one of Illidan's jailors in WC3.

    Uhm. It's been a day and still no class changes or new zone maps on frontpage?
    This is what I found out in-game. Some of the maps are in game but currently not linked to a zone on the world maps, so to access the maps, for STV for instance, you have to either be there or open the map browser and select the map from the dropdown menu. Some instance maps might also have been added but I haven't had time to check those yet.

    New maps: Loch Modan, Silithus, Un'goro, Tanaris, Winterspring, Stranglethorn north and south, Blasted Lands(fixed)
    Zone changes: Hillsbrad Foothills and Alterac Mountains has merged into one zone.
    Missing maps: Uldum, Twilight Highlands, Hillsbrad Foothills

    Class changes? Loads, I've only been om my warrior and paladin so far and this is what I noticed:
    Warrior: changed stances passive bonuses (penalties removed, yay - only took 5 years, berserker does 10% more dmg, prot takes 10% less dmg and increased threat, battle does 5% more dmg and takes 5% less dmg), new warrior ability called "Strike" which does 50% weapon damage and you start with it at lvl 1 instead of Heroic Strike, which replaced Slam recently as starting ability.
    Lots of talent changes for paladins, and a few for warriors aswell. Probably loads of class changes overall.

    The new Thrall model is decent, but I would've loved it even more if he had gotten one for this expansion instead of Cataclysm.

    Also: Yay for stats on relics! xD
