This Week in WoW History
We're taking a look back at old MMO-Champion posts and World of Warcraft news that occurred during this time in previous years.
Patch 4.0.3a Live
This preparation patch to the Cataclysm brought many changes to Azeroth to make the transition into the new expansion smoother. New loading screens, intro cinematic, login screen, and music were added. Some major changes, such as the Shattering, which is a revamp of most leveling zones was introduced, along with a few new Quartermasters, and the updated Race-Class combination system.
Chuck Norris is a Hunter
“There are 10 million players in the World of Warcraft, because Chuck Norries allows them to live.” The newest TV Ad for WoW featured Chuck Norris playing a Human Hunter and using some very interesting new animations that were not seen before. Some of these were later implemented as the Flying Serpent Kick and Spinning Crane Kick for the new Monk class.
Patch 5.1 Live
This was the first content patch of Mists of Pandaria, bringing Upgradable items with tooltip support, new Reputation gear, and the Operation: Shieldwall quest for both factions. Perhaps one of the most exciting change was the addition of Grand Commendation items for all MoP factions. These items were purchasable when reaching Revered with a certain faction, and they increased Reputation gain by 100% for all characters on the account.
WoW’s 10th Anniversary Events
The 10th Anniversary event featured two of the most loved pieces of content from Vanilla. Players who wanted to revisit or perhaps kill Ragnaros for the first time now had the chance through the limited time Molten Core Raid Finder event. Finishing the raid rewarded players with a special helm, the new Corehound Mount, a Molten Corgi, and a special weapon enchantment transmog. The famous Hillsbrad world PvP zone was also introduced as a special “Southshore vs. Tarren Mil” battleground for a limited time. This event was also added in Legion as a PvP brawl.
Legion Alpha
The Legion Alpha showcased a few of the new features coming in the expansion. The Demon Hunter starting zone with the questline to escape Mardum was available, along with the new DH character creation and customization process. Artifact Weapon models for most of the classes, and the Wardrobe were also found in this early version of the patch.
Bad Luck Protection
The acquisition of legendary items was shrouded in mystery for the first part of the expansion. After players started getting 4 legendaries they noticed that it was very difficult to acquire the 5th. This was due to the bad luck protection being capped at 4 items, thus mostly benefitting unlucky players. This soft cap made it very difficult to get legendaries for different specs, or if a player was unlucky with the first few legendaries they got, then it was very difficult to get the better ones. The response to this was the removal of soft cap, allowing bad luck protection to benefit all players.
Trial of Valor Drama
Helya was the most difficult boss in the expansion up to that point, but she went live with a game-breaking bug which was abused by a few of the top guilds. Phase 3 of the encounter was considered the most difficult part, during which it was found that allowing the tank to die to the first cast of breath would prevent her from casting it for the remainder of the fight. This bug was abused by Exorsus, From Scratch, and Limit, all of whom got banned for a few days and had their kills taken away.
