Isle of Conquest · Changes

2009-06-26T03:21:00.000-07:00

From Zarhym
Based on player feedback and testing, we will be making several changes to Isle of Conquest in the next test realm build. We'd like to lay them out for you here in the hopes we're able to encourage continued participation and feedback.

Increased all the gates' health from 300,000 to 600,000.

Increased the reinforcement count from 200 to 400.

Significantly increased the health and damage of the keep generals.

Seaforium

Reduced effect range of the siege damage caused. Both the player damage and the siege damage caused should be 10 yards now.

The Huge Seaforium piles will now despawn for 20 seconds once looted.

Glaive Thrower

Reduced the cooldown of Blade Salvo from 60 seconds to 30 seconds.

Reduced movement speed.

Demolisher

The Hurl Boulder and Ram effects no longer share a cooldown.

Keep Cannons

Fixed a bug that was causing them to do much more damage than intended.

Keep Cannons can now be repaired once they are destroyed by clicking on them. This repair process takes 8 seconds and can be interrupted, similar to capturing a PvP objective.

Siege Engine

Significantly Increased health.

Your testing of this new Battleground thus far has proven invaluable and we ask that you please keep the feedback coming once these changes have been applied.

New hotfix for the Midsummer Fire Festival

2009-06-23T03:20:00.000-07:00

Blizzard will apply a new update in the public realms which will restart the missions associated with the Midsummer Fire Festival. This is the way to solve the problem with the achievement: Extinguishing Kalimdor

From Bornakk
We are in the process of applying an in-game fix that will restart all of the quests associated with the Midsummer Fire Festival event and allow players to complete them once again. If you are in the process of completing an achievement such as Extinguishing Kalimdor, this fix will reset your progress and you will need start over. This fix will require realms to be restarted.

Addons: Pitbull 4

2009-06-22T17:45:00.000-07:00

Pitbull is one of the addons most used for the players of World of Warcraft to modify the player frame. Despite of being less downloaded than Xperl (about 3 Million of downloads), it's because Pitbull wasn't distributed by Curse until the middle of the last year.

Ckknight is an advanced group of developers who are finishing the version 4. You can read more about the proyect on the site WoWAce. Here you have 2 videos of some of the changes that the new version will have :

Part 1

Part 2

Crusader's Coliseum · images

2009-06-22T04:19:00.000-07:00

In the next big content patch, the Crusader's Coliseum building in The Argent Tournament will be completed, and it will allocate new challenges. Here you have some of the new images:

Now, you can go through 10 or 25-player versions of the Crusaders' Coliseum without worrying about having to decide whether or not to attempt the hard mode on a particular boss. Instead a separate 10 or 25-player raid can be scheduled where the sole focus can be on Heroic mode. I think this is a great change !

Before the raid begins you can choose your difficulty, and choosing one difficulty won't mean you're shut out from attempting the alternative difficulty that same week, just as 10 and 25-player modes have been on separate lock-outs in Naxxramas and Ulduar.

Lake Wintergrasp · changes in 3.2

2009-06-21T16:50:00.000-07:00

This entry will speak about some changes Wintergrasp will take on the next patch 3.2. Inside of this patch, there are some aspects which will change the game-play of this "Battleground" (I consider it like a battleground).

We hope to not having lag like it usually gives lots of times.

The 3.2 changes are :

To provide players with a more transparent notification of when Wintergrasp battles occur, as well as better control zone population and stability, several changes have been made.
Players now have the option to queue for Wintergrasp from a Wintergrasp Battlemaster in any capital city or by simply entering the Wintergrasp zone.
Queuing will begin 15 minutes before each battle. If chosen, you will automatically be teleported to the zone. Any players in the zone who have not been chosen from the queue will be teleported out when the battle begins.
The queue system remains active for the entire battle. As soon as a player leaves, a new one will be chosen from the queue.
Trying to enter Wintergrasp during an active battle for which you have not been chosen will teleport you out. Please note that, as you are now able to fly over Wintergrasp, you will only be teleported out if you try to land and join the battle.
Level 80 players get higher priority in the queue than lower level players. In addition, a random selection of queued players will be taken from both the Battlemasters and the zone itself.
The queue will accept up to 100 players from each faction, resulting in a maximum battle of 200 players at a time.

Things which I agree are:

The priority of level 80 players.
100 vs 100 : Balanced teams. Sometimes there are much more from one side than the other. I hope this will be the solution of the lag in the server.

Isle of Conquest

2009-06-21T12:18:00.000-07:00

A new large-scale siege Battleground where Horde and Alliance have to battle head-to-head for control of strategic resources to lay siege to the keeps of their opponents.

It's too soon to speculate on the mechanics of the Battleground, but it leans towards being of bigger scale than the fifteen-man Eye of the Storm or Arathi Basin.

What Blizzard wants to say with "large-scale" ? I mean, you wouldn't call either Battleground "large-scale", would you? At any rate, with all the data Blizzard has gathered from the success and popularity of Wintergrasp, expect Isle of Conquest to be several steps in the right direction.

The Midsummer Fire Festival

2009-06-21T06:41:00.000-07:00

· Type: Holiday Event
· Date: June 21st - July 5th
· Location: All over Azeroth and Outland

The Midsummer Fire Festival is coming up like all summers !

This year it begins on June 21st until July 5th. The festival features are made by new events, quests, some achievement, prizes and some summoned boss for the high-level players.

We consider interesting :

Flying in Azeroth : It must be interesting but remember that it's designed for road mounts, so we'll find some bug.
4 Different Lockouts in Crusader's Coliseum

Once it begins, you can upload your screenshots here : Screenshot-form

Ulduar Bosstiary

2009-06-21T06:10:00.000-07:00

Blizzard has created a little interactive map to see the location of the "Bosses" in Ulduar. Another interesting tool, but it doesn't tell so much though. Compared with other applications made by wow users, sometimes Blizzard leaves a lot to be desired.

· Ulduar's Bosstiary

New druid forms

2009-06-21T03:01:00.000-07:00

Here you can see how the druid forms will be on the next patch 3.2. They will change depending on the hair color and skin of your character.

Apart from this, in this patch, taurens will be able to change their tones, something new in world of warcraft.

We hope that other characters have the same customization in the future, because some people are tired of having always the same appearance of the skin.
