the Mor'Shan Rampart (Horde) and south of Silverwing Outpost in
Ashenvale (Alliance). The Alterac Valley entrances may be found east
of Sofera's Naze in Alterac (Horde), and in the Headlands of Alterac

will reduce a player's rank all the way to zero.
Players may now see an "estimated contribution point value" in the
combat log for an honorable kill. Note that this value does not
take diminishing returns against the same player into account, and
is therefore "estimated".
"Team Contribution Points" has been renamed to "Honor"
Added tooltips to the different elements of the Honor System UI.
Players will see their last week's kill data in the "Last Week"
section of the Honor System UI even if they did not achieve the 25
honorable kills required to gain standing or rank.

on a target with Blessing of Protection active.

including Sacrifice) by 10/20/30%.
- Improved Succubus - Now increases Succubus spells by 10/20/30%.

the Imp, Voidwalker, Succubus and Felhunter, it now reduces mana cost
by 20/40%.

the off-hand weapon by 5/10/15/20/25%. Note: the additional damage
also increases rage generation significantly.
- Iron Will - Fixed a bug that caused many abilities to ignore the
additional resistance.
- Enrage - Increased the number of charges to 12. Decreased the
duration to 12 seconds. The new duration is the limiting factor for

swing), while dual wielding and faster weapons will make better use
of all of the charges over the duration of the ability.
- Concussion Blow - Changed to an instant, stunning attack and removed

that a group will not receive party members from a meeting stone that
don't really have a chance of completing the dungeon.

what other players relaxed. This means groups who use meeting stones
(or innkeepers) should have their groups formed much more quickly

allows popup windows.

displays a more appropriate message: "Another action is in progress."

to war with them.

ensure that the spirits of dead characters go to the closest

materialized and are no longer ghostly in appearance.

Azuregos, Lord Kazzak, and bosses in Molten Core.

Quests
- Searing Gorge has a new quest hub for both Alliance and Horde players
called Thorium Point. The supported level ranges are 45-52. Craftsmen
will be happy to know that the Thorium Brotherhood has opened up many
new opportunities to gain favor amongst their clan (even for level
60 players).
- The Hinterlands has a new Horde quest hub known as Revantusk Village,
located on the eastern coastline. Horde players level 44-52 are
encouraged to visit Revantusk Village and assist the Revantusk with
their myriad problems and tasks!
- All members of both the Horde and Alliance are reporting low
stockpiles of various textile resources! Donations of cloth are now
being accepted in the following locations: Darnassus, Stormwind, and
Ironforge for the Alliance; Orgrimmar, Undercity, and Thunder Bluff
for the Horde. Seek out an official Cloth Quartermaster for more
information.
- Several quests have been added to Feralas for level 45-52 characters.
- Krueg Skullsplitter has moved from Thousand Needles to a more
appropriate location at Camp Mojache in Feralas.
- Highlord Demitrian is back! For those players unraveling the
mysteries of Thunderaan, you may once more speak with the Highlord.
- Dwarven Priests may now undertake the Molten Core discovery quest;
"Attunement to the Core." By fixing this bug, we had to open the
quest to all players once more. If you have already done the quest,
you will not be required to do it again in order to access the Molten
Core via the portal.
- Highlord Bolvar Fordragon should no longer despawn when "The Great
Masquerade" is activated.
- Characters on the "A Strange Historian" quest are now correctly
prompted to find Chromie in the northwest corner of Andorhal, where
she and the ruined inn have been moved to.

bound items. These items only exist within the Dire Maul zone
instance, and players will lose these keys from their inventory if
they leave the zone.
- Everyone's favorite Alliance quest, "Deep Ocean, Vast Sea" now gives
a substantial coin reward in addition to the choice of item.
- Rage Scar Yetis in Feralas no longer give the quest item for the
"Mark of Quality" quest.

Thunder Bluff faction increase where appropriate.

people who have already completed the quest for it.
- The "Unfinished Gordok Business" quest has been fixed to allow
certain Human Priests access to it who had difficulty previously.
- Sea Elementals and Sea Sprays in Feralas should now be giving out
the proper version of Oglethorpe's distress beacon.
- The end of the Paladin Epic Mount quest "Grimand's Finest Work" now
makes it clearer that Lord Shadowbreaker's acquisition of the
Arcanite Barding is only temporary.
- Jeziba in the Ruins of Andorhal now faces the correct direction when
pointing to his Catalogue of the Wayward.
- Fraggar Thundermantle now correctly tells you to return to him, and
not his evil, two-eyed twin, Frobe Thundermantle when completing the
Skull Rock Clean-up quest.
- The Branch of Cenarius no longer drops off of Prince Raze. It now
properly only drops off of Geltharis for the quest, The Branch of
Cenarius.
- Failed quests will now indicate (Failed) in the quest log so it is
easier to see them.
- Typos fixed in the Paladin Epic Mount quests.
User Interface
- Innkeepers around the world now have a gossip option that lets you
join a meeting stone directly from the innkeeper rather than going to
the location of the meeting stone. Also these Innkeepers will now
have background lore about each of the dungeons.
- Levels Required for meeting stones have been increased. The intent is
that a group will not receive party members from a meeting stone that
don't really have a chance of completing the dungeon.
- Meeting Stones have had their rules for what players are grouped with
what other players relaxed. This means groups who use meeting stones
(or innkeepers) should have their groups formed much more quickly
than they were previously.
- Pets of other party members will now display in the party UI. You can
see pet health and harmful effects on the pet. You can turn this
functionality on and off in the Interface Options menu.
- Players can now target other players in a raid by clicking on their
name in the raid window. Additional Raid UI improvements coming soon.

- Your main action bar now displays the number of the bar that you are
currently displaying.

all party members after the round-robin looter closes their loot
window. The Loot Master always distributes items over the loot
threshold.
- Rolling on items while charmed/hexed/etc. now works, as does /random
and receiving items from the master looter.
- When a player dies in an instance and then uses the spirit healer,
the body in the instance now turns to bones.
- Players can no longer mail or auction an item that they've just
disenchanted.
- When a ghost player is resurrected into an instance that has become
full, they no longer come to life wherever their ghost happens to be
standing. Instead, they get ported to the closest graveyard.
- Players must now bind a bind-on-equip bag to put in into a purchased
bank bag slot.
- Items split from stacks can now be dropped directly into (or onto)
bank bags without any mysterious error messages.
- Added a "Maximize" windowed video option which will maximize the game
window and remove the borders for a fullscreen experience which
allows popup windows.
- Trying to use a hearthstone, consumable, etc. while logging out now
displays a more appropriate message: "Another action is in progress."
- The login interface files are now checked to make sure they haven't
been tampered with or corrupted. This is to improve account security
in public game rooms.
- Added the function TargetNearestPartyMember() to the UI scripting
system.
World Environment
- The Thorium Brotherhood faction is now peaceful - players cannot go
to war with them.
- The Wildhammer Clan in the Hinterlands is now a peaceful faction to
the Alliance, meaning Alliance players cannot intentionally declare
war on them.

at the Overlook Cliffs.

ensure that the spirits of dead characters go to the closest
graveyard.
- Buliwyf Stonehand, the dwarven weapon master in Ironforge, now
properly tells you about the weapons that Woo Ping can train you in,

Repairer's Union and has had his ability to repair durability
reinstated.

on characters was reduced from 100% to 50% growth.

when they are hacking at the trees.

materialized and are no longer ghostly in appearance.

Weaver's spawn point from inside a tree.
