Of course, when the patch notes first hit, there was a lot of new info, helping or otherwise adding to the excitement surrounding patch 2.4. While that huge influx of info has slowed a bit, there is still a good amount of info coming out about the next patch for World of Warcraft. WoW Insider has their own roundup post, where they will put all the info they find about the patch in nice, neat categories.
We have info about the World PvP daily quests, a peek at the UI and Interface panel changes in 2.4, and an awesome post about what we can expect to see in 2.4 before we even run off to the Isle of Quel'danas, including daily quests in Shatt from some of the newly converted NPCs which are now members of the Shattered Sun Offensive. Oh, and don't forget the gift to PvPers who spend their time in Battlegrounds, a repeatable turn in quest that gifts you honor for all those excess tokens.
A day or two ago WoW Insider informed the audience that the Naaru that the Blood Elves where fueling their Paladins on had vanished on the PTR, and that pretty much sealed it for the identity of the Dark Naaru in the Sunwell Plateau. Of course, those on the PTR aren't hesitating in having a bit of fun as some enterprising warlocks have found a way to enslave Brutallus the demon from Sunwell Plateau, pretty effectively killing everything on the Island. I agree with WoW Insider's Daniel Whitcomb, this will most likely be fixed before 2.4 goes live.
Fishing is getting some major buffs, or gifts at least, in 2.4. First, we get fishing Daily quests. Yay! We can push people into 375 fishing with rewards of cash and blues! Speaking of Blues, There is a report that at least one fishing quest rewards you with a new non combat pet, Chuck the baby crockolisk, which you would get in a Bag of Fishing Treasures, which comes from the fishing quests much like the Crate of Meat and Barrel of Fish come from the Cooking Daily. Other items found inside this bag are Sharpened Fish Hooks, a recipe for Captain Rumsey's Lager, Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat.
We also have reports of a seemingly common drop 20 slow unique bag, Sun Touched Satchel, and even though their own reader said so days before, WoW Insider is reporting that the Phoenix non combat pet does, in fact, drop from Kael'Thas in Magister's Terrace. How it took them 4 days to read their own comments which included a screen shot of the Phoenix being looted off Kael'Thas, I don't know, but there you have it.
News out in the last few days shows that items critical to making most high end crafted items, Primal Nether and Nether Vortex, will no longer be BoP, and Nether Vortex will not be purchasable for 15 Badges of Justice as well as 7g and change. This will make crafting my next level breast plates for Medros, as well as the items for Ameland even more possible since I won't have to go run heroics or go and do Kara runs endlessly to get enough badges for them.
The last roundup of news in the last few days are as follows. Suggested possible Dragonhawk mounts, class set changes, and even a few class changes as well as more promised to be coming. We have linkable spells and quests, and more walk throughs of the new area of the Isle of Quel'danas, starting with the new rep, all the way up through the 5 man Magister's Terrace and unlocking the 25 man Sunwell Plateau. Update: Tigole on Attunements, miscellaneous notes from the latest PTR build, with more likely as the progressive test continues.
