[Update:The full patch notes have been released by Blizzard. You can find a list of some of the bigger changes below,or check out the entire thing here.]
Big changes are coming toWorld of Warcraft, and they’re happening before theShadowlandsexpansion. On October 13, actually, when the pre-patch hits.
The most important thing to note is easily the “level squish,” which is bringing level 120 players down to 50, to make progression more meaningful (read: leveling will grant you new abilities and talents).
You can also change your gender and appearanceat the barbershop at will, which grants you more customization options, like tattoos for dwarves and less/more bone exposure for undead. Corrupted gear will be cleansedwhenShadowlandshitsand season four will end.
So that’s all of the housekeeping stuff. In terms of content, you’re called into action to combat an undead invasion in Icecrown. It’s confirmed as a “limited time event” with special rewards: aiming to end around whenShadowlandslaunches. Par for the course! I hope that the “tee-up” pre-patch questline has some meaningful beats.
