Cataclysm Beta - Build 12857 (Codename Ninja)

[Alraml]

As fun as a new beta build is. Until it's implemented we can't see any phsyical changes /sadface

Is there no way of telling if any models will be changed etc?

Wait... no 'Gnome Slayer' achievement? BOOO! :P

My question is shouldn't that be each of the level 85 racial 'Classes'? (E.G. Troll Slayer - Get an honorable kill on each of the level 85 Troll classes listed below.)

Nope, you can check the models easily in model viewer. It's just that this build was grabbed directly from the Blizzard servers, meaning that Blizzard uploaded in to their file server and didn't redirect the patcher to the file (aka they didn't intend to release it today). Boub was likely checking the file servers, was like "WTF IS THIS?! an unreleased patch?!" and downloaded the file.

If the file is still up, I'll grab it myself and check for changes in a sec.

Pretty sure there's an beta compatible Wowmodelviewer @ here

This is painfully relevant to my interests.

Kind of in two minds about the realm firsts to 85. Glad they're there, but sad because it'll make the first 3 days of Cataclysm hellish for me!

Nothing a few cans of Monster can't fix.

Kings Under the Mountain - Discover the following artifacts of the dark iron dwarf kings:

"In J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy universe of Middle-earth, the King Under the Mountain is the title of the Dwarven ruler who resides at the Lonely Mountain of Erebor. The King Under the Mountain was also by right King of Durin's Folk."

it's a ninja patch
But it's looking like the beta is moving to the final phase...
with the lvl cap raised to 85
Awesome!

[Cernunnos]

Anyone else notice Zul Gurub is missing (again re. dungeon maps) from classic raid achievements.

Yes. Anyone who isn't in beta already should hold onto their opt-in socks.. with Wrath Blizzard opened up the flood gates with invites at this point.

United Nations achievement = Reach exalted with 55 factions. Jeez, you'd have to get something good for that

It's not even that hard. After 40 exalted and the Cata reputations, it's going to be a piece of cake to solo.

Where are the files usually posted at?

Are you not entertained! *throws sword at boub*

Well, it's not on the blizzard torrent announce (http://us.tracker.worldofwarcraft.com:3724/announce) or it would have been picked up by the patcher. They follow a standard naming scheme with their patches (WoW-4.0.0.12857-x86-Win-enUS.torrent or .MPQ, etc) so I'd imagine it wouldn't be too difficult to find if you looked at a previous torrent.

This is of course ASSUMING the file is still even up or that Boub got it from their servers in the first place. He's very ambiguous in the first post.

Either they forgot to put it in (like Gnome slayer) or Zul Gurub is getting removed. (Be quitet angry mount farmers)

# A Class Act - Reach level 85 on each of the classes listed below.

Finally, a altoholic achievement :>

[FlasKamel]

# A Class Act - Reach level 85 on each of the classes listed below.

Nah, this is a guild achievement. This achievement is faceroll ˆˆ

But the ones like "Classy Orc" are those where alts will shine, because basically you're gonna have to lvl up to 85 all possible race/classe combination, which wont be super easy, and will require some coordination with rerolls. Or a pretty huge guild.

I was just thinking that...

But still what stops a crazy mental insane altoholic to make his own guild and get this achievement by him self... disturbing....
