Ha ha ha ha ;D
Its a raid encounter in Icecrown Citadel. You are aboard an Alliance/Horde airship and get attacked by the opposing factions airship. You shoot cannons at the other ship and launch yourself over to take out their Battle Mage when he shows up. Its fun in game but this is more fun than that. ;D

Yes that has started too. The Gnomer one was bugged for a while last night so I will try again today. This will make it the longest I've logged into WoW for a while. XD

Finally got to play a bit of the Beta again today. Goblins are back up again, but one of the final starter quests is bugged so you can't get past level 5 apparently. They cleaned up Goblin female's appearance as well. The hair no longer clips, and they actually have matching hair color eyebrows now. Well, you have to adjust the facial features to get the eyebrows to match just right, but it's a start! I'm quite pleased. A lot of stuff is still bugged, but I'm just thankful we can actually play it.

An update to my previous post... they had another large patch today. The eyebrows that the goblin females had were removed for some reason. They allowed us to change the races of our premade characters, which was nice. I changed my DK to goblin, my priest to gnome, and my hunter to human. I think they level cap has finally been increased all the way to 85, because I saw a ton of premade characters at level 85. Mine are still level 80, except for the hunter who magically dinged 81 when I logged into her. o.O I'm falling in love quickly with goblin females. They are just so damn cute. The Barber shop is working again so I finally got to see the new hairstyles for Goblins, and they're all great. I may spend time leveling my gobbie DK now thanks to the changes. I'm probably gonna end up going full on hordie when Cata is released. The goblin females are too cute to resist. Even when they're undead zombie DKs, they're still adorable in an evil, creepy sorta way. >.> Also, now that my connection is 1000 times better, I'd like for us to go back to our static. Saekeion is all dusty and pitiful.

If any of you would like to test some of the new Cata features, some have been made available on the PTR, which is open to everyone. You can't test Goblin or Worgen, but I think the new class/race combos may be available, as well as new game mechanics. I.E. Ammo being removed, Druid's new Eclipse feature, and a lot more. Chances are we may end up seeing patch 4.0.1 before Cata is released. For more information on what is available, read this topic on the official forums. forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=26725675995&sid=1If I'm not mistaken, the new PTR realms are the same ones that Cata beta testers are on, so you may get to at least see goblins and the occasional glitched out worgen. A lot of this is my own speculation. But I saw people in trade chat on the Beta last night talking like they were from the PTR, so... At any rate, if you're interested, check it out... and come play with me!

Yeah they always release the new version before the expansion comes out. So the actual destruction of Azeroth will take place before Cata is released.

A word on heirlooms. I heard that heirlooms would be sold for gold instead of emblems. So far, that is NOT the case. Justice Points, which is like Honor Points, are the new currency. From what I read they are obtained the same way emblems were, by grinding dungeons.

The new badges. I wonder how that will work. If a boss gives off 100 points or whatever instead of 1 badge. How many point does it take for an heirloom piece roughly? Like 6000 points in place of 60 badges or something?
And have you tried playing a Hunter yet? I'm curious how their Focus thingy works. I never understood why they had mana since they are not a magic class. I'm guessing Focus will work much like a Rogue's Energy which I approve of. I'm not sure what to make of them getting rid of ammo though. It will be easier to maintain for sure but it just seems strange.
Started playing a bit today. Not really doing anything other than PvP. It is fun in this game. Come Cata that will be all I'll likely do with my level 85 toons. I'm interested in the rated Battlegrounds they will have. I hope they allow you to buy PvP weapons with Honor Points instead of just Arena Points. I don't do Arena but I want PvP weapons. XD
