Patch 4.0.3 this week, Tier 11 All Races/Classes Preview, MMO Report, Comics

Patch 4.0.3 on live servers this week
Nothing official, but if everything goes as planned Patch 4.0.3 should be deployed on live servers this week. This is NOT THE PATCH CHANGING THE OLD WORLD, Patch 4.0.3a will do that and the one deployed this week is mostly here to pave the way for the shattering of Azeroth. Patch notes below.

General
  • Much of the data being downloaded in patch 4.0.3 will pave the way for the shattering of Azeroth shortly before the release of World of Warcraft: Cataclysm on December 7.
  • The leader of Wintergrasp raids can no longer kick players from the raid (this change will also apply to Tol Barad in Cataclysm).
  • When in a Looking For Dungeon group, using an instance portal to that instance will now take players to the Looking For Dungeon entrance point instead of the normal destination of that portal. This will make it easier to return to the instance after dying in an LFD group.
  • Honorable Kills are no longer awarded for killing players below level 5.

User Interface
  • Added pets to the new raid unit frames when displayed in party.
  • The default UI Scale has been altered so it will be set at a 1:1 pixel/texel ratio. This will result in a smaller UI appearance for higher resolution monitors.
  • Players may now adjust the local "Lag Tolerance" time for better precision of spell timing. This is an advanced-users-only feature found in the Interface Options (Combat) panel.

Bug Fixes
  • Macros now handle spell variant transitions better. For example, Trap Launcher causes a different version of Frost Trap to be cast. Previously the macro system was not handling this transition properly.
  • Queuing in Looking For Dungeon for a different wing of the instance a player is already in now works properly. For example, a party can now queue for Scarlet Monastery - Library after completing Scarlet Monastery - Graveyard.
  • Killing High Interrogator Gerstahn before killing Emperor Dagran Thaurissan in a Blackrock Depths - Upper City random Looking For Dungeon run will now provide the proper reward. This also applies to Archmage Arugal and the Crown Chemical Company bosses in Shadowfang Keep during the Love is in the Air holiday event.
  • Repeatedly inspecting other players should now function correctly.
  • Area heal-over-time effects should no longer cause players to stand up.
  • Male blood elves have received a crash course in dancing and now know to stop dancing when they run.
  • Drake mounts have gotten bored with gliding and will flap their wings again when flying forward.
  • Druid Flight Form now properly appears in the Spellbook before Expert Riding is learned.
  • Sunfire's damage-over-time effect now deals damage at the same rate as Moonfire's damage- over-time effect.
  • GM Ticket messages should now displace buff icons instead of obscuring them.

Tier 11 Models Preview - All races / Classes / Gender
I've been doing Armor Sets previews for years, and I'm always surprised by how much time I have to spend on it. I know I promised it before the end of last week but ... Monday is close enough, and I'm totally blaming it on the new races/classes conditions!

Most of the screenshots should match the in-game models, except for a few bugs (T11 Priest on female gnomes) but 99% of it is just fine at this point. Races are always screenshoted in the following order: Human, Dwarf, Night Elf, Draenei, Worgen, Gnome, Orc, Troll, Goblin, Undead, Tauren, Blood Elf

    well if this is true and the older post about patch 4.03a will come out shortly after. then my guess is that patch 4.03a and thus the shattering will happen the week of thanksgiving. Would be a very nice treat me thinks. Though honestly i think both the shattering and cataclysm should come out on the same day but thats ok :-)

    yea but why do the worgen male/female DK's have a complete helm then? the worgen mage helm is just a big fail

    The tier sets look rather nice in comparison to some of the WOTLK sets.

    The reason their snout is visible is because the screenshots are from the model viewer, not in-game. I'm positive the snout is NOT visible in-game. This is an issue that has always been present in wow model viewer, ears and hair that are normally not visible in-game would be visible in the model viewer when the helm is equipped, which is why there is an option to remove the hair and ears from a character. There is most likely no "view snout" option to turn off, and thus their snout remains visible through the helm, although this is likely not the case in-game.

    I really hope 4.0.3a comes the 30th instead of next week. Next week is Thanksgiving and many ppl will be away from computer, including me

    What's with the skull fetish? Are we supposed to be heroes, or sociopathic killers? So glad you can turn helmets off.

    Was hoping that the alchemy bug would be fixed

    DLC ftw!

    Loving the worgen and troll versions of druid T11. Troll shaman set looks pretty sweet too.

    And finally, no more drake gliding! Never thought I'd miss the flapping wings so much! >.<

    Like the achievement for dalaran cooking awards not updating and those slow death-mounts.. :<

    This.

    I was very disappointed with the Warlock tier 11, but Male Worgen can pull it off quite well compared to any other races.

    Is it just me or do Goblins look AMAZING in every set? It just seems like their shoulders and helmets are the right size while the shoulders and/or helmets are to large for other classes.

    Like the Tauren warrior, the helmet makes him look like he has a huge underbite.

    The T11 Warrior armor on female Worgen... looks meh. Why is it that they're the only females that have stupid looking eyes? Blizzard needs to get look working the same for them as all the other races. As it is, it looks like they're on the verge of tears. I do not want my ferocious female Worgen to look like she's about to CRY ALL THE TIME.

    They still need to change the eyes in the first place. They look ridiculous and out of place, even without the helmet.

    Sometimes with the LFD tool you don't start at the very beginning of an instance, you will start in the middle. I think this means that when you are in one of those particular instances, when you go back to the portal for the dungeon it will put you back at the LFD start of the dungeon instead of the technical start of the dungeon.

    I still want to know who the hell voted for Paladin as the best looking T11 set. It is by far the worst of the bunch.

    I can use my drakes again! Glorious day, glorious day! Was getting tired of using the Celestial Steed so giant wings wouldn't take up half my screen all the time.

    HAH I knew it mage tier would look terrible on worgen with there muzzle sticking out

    gnomes need bigger shoulders, just a lil bigger, we always have our shoulders covered by our helms.

    The issue with the cooking awards not updating is intentional. It's supposed to change and start counting the new cata awards instead.

    Can anyone please confirm if Herald of the Titans, The Immortal, etc achievs will be removed in this patch ?

    Would love a blue post about that.
