World of Warcraft 1.9 info

[MadMikey]

Voodoo Extreme has a look at the new Silithus instances (http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/666/666572p1.html) (yes, more than one). Plus they talk about an interesting event that can only happen once per server:

The Ahn'Qiraj area is opened up by opening the gates of Silithus located at the Scarab Wall in south Silithus - a structure of truly cyclopean proportions. This will actually be a one-time world event that can be triggered only once per server and it requires the help of everyone on a server to open the gates (both Horde and Alliance). Once the gates have been opened on a server, that server can no longer participate in the gate-opening event.
Seems odd to me that there would be game content that's not available to everyone (if the doors are already opened, then I can't do that content with a new character).

:confused:

There is no way to get newbie characters to that gate alive. It's that simple. Trying to do so would be an act of futility. Also, you need to consider other things. Hell PUGs on Bloodscalp often have guys on them who don't speak english. Even if you could clear out the zone... good luck getthing those guys on board.

Not quite Mikey.

At 1.9, the door will be closed (actually it's closed now, there's just nothing on the other side of it. :p ) There will be a server-wide effort to get the doors open (ie.. kill 1 million Kobolds, 2 million murlocks, etc). Once the doors are opened, THEN people can get in.

And no, I wouldn't go there in a PUG either. If the pre-patch notes about it being harder than BWL are true, I'm not sure if I"d even go in a guild run. :D

BTW: Level your damn druid up to 19 on Bloodscalp Creep... I have the "Embrace of the Viper" set almost complete with no druid to put it on.

I am so happy they are finally going to expand the Auction Houses to include Stormwind and Darnassus and link them.

Ya, that'll be really nice. 'Course I'll still probably log in/out from IF just cause it's more convenient travel-wise, but it'll be nice to have options.

Well, no November release... hope this comes soon.

There was another post that said "even the most dedicated servers, who work 24 hours a day, will take 2-3 weeks to open the gates"

Might be a fun race to see who can get it done first :)

And also, there are 2 parts of AQ

directly throgh the gates is AQ 20 man, and then underneath that is the Temple of Ahn'Quiraj, AQ40.

AQ20 is like ZG.. It was playable at blizzcon, and we basically 8 maned it to the first boss.

AQ40 is the tier3 dungeon, over bwl, and is a bitch and a half :)

The new enchant oils look cool. Just need rep (again) to get top one.





Rep, rep, rep.... grrrrrr.
