Doh was hoping for early November ... meh at least we have a date now.

Yea I guess so, though I intend mainly to use the time for farming ores, herbs and stacking the AH :)

good time to get rich.

gah. I'm waiting for it come so I can start a new main, goblin spriest ftw

In before the expansion is 90$ aud even on the blizzard store.

Game has it for $59 online. EBGames has it for $58 lol. But I'm going Game now, EBGames can go f*** themselves.

Getting 2 collectors editions for $109 each

I'm getting mine through EB. Had originally put down for one collectors and one regular, but the guy there made it two collectors even though apparently EB have been told to sell only one Collectors per person. So when I called up this morning to confirm, it turns out I have a twin brother now who placed an order =)

I got beta access on friday. I'm loving the changes for my lock. My paladin sucks now though.

How are hunters pulling up in the beta?

How are hunters pulling up in the beta?

I played the beta before they allowed addons and before they wiped the entire client and made me have to download 20gb again so i'm not sure but an exact copy of my character, who had about a 5.2k gear score at the time was doing some rather impressive damage. 20k aimed shot crits but that has since gone up to a 3 second cast. Kill Command was doing about 4 - 5k damage per hit, which is every 6 seconds and apparantly that number can go as high as 9k at 85. Pet crits were pretty high too, about the 3 - 4k mark if I remember right. Top dps specs so far seem to be marks highest, BM only slightly behind and survival behind BM in last place.

Oh and hunters get additions to their pets, with everyone of the classes seemingly getting a new ability. Spirit beasts can heal for around 11k reportedly, core hounds get bloodlust (oh yeah), devisaurs get a 5% crit buff if I remember right (I know 1 of them does) and there is AI, MotW, fort, kings and all sorts of other buffs now. Also we have 25 stable slots and 5 active slots which you can call a pet out of at any time. Also being able to steady shot, cobra shot and auto shoot on the move will be a great thing to hear people complain about.

Nice on the hunter info - have SV and BM builds on my main. F*** love the idea of all the extra pet slots.

Not looking forward to rebuilding all the toons though lol 4 80's all dual talented :( and my resto Drood hit 78 on the weekend.

I haven't really looked into whats going on much at all but I've been busy lvling a troll hunter for a while now.
All that info makes me wanna not even worry about a spriest haha

but there are 4 goblin supermodels with the tag < ridiculously good looking >, at the petrol station having a gasoline fight. That made me laugh hard.

I was completely fine with not doing my normal 2 to 3 month return with this expansion, until you said that. I need to know all the jokes's and explorable things
