Token system revealed, Next build changes, blue posts2009-08-27 00:00:00Token system revealed
Last week, Tigole hinted that Heroic Badges and BG Tokens would get storage space. If you are on beta and type "/console showtokenframe 1" followed by "/token", this tokens window will show and it's probably the new storage system Tigole talked about that will track all your tokens, honor and arena points.
Next Beta Build - Class ChangesThe official Wrath of the Lich King talent calculators have been updated on Thursday and Saturday, and we compared WoWhead talent calculators (current beta build) with official talent calculators (we assume these new class changes are from the next beta build) to find out the new class changes from Saturday's update. Death Knight
Blood Vendetta now heals you up to 2/4% (old version: 3/6%) of your total maximum health. Blood Gorged (Tier 10) is now only affecting melee damage. Mark of Blood no longer has a cooldown. (that's probably a typo on the official talent calc) Frost New Tier 8 Talent - Blood of the North - Whenever you used a Blood Strike, there is a 20% chance that the Blood Rune will become a Death Rune when it activates. Improved Icy Touch now does an additional 10/20/30/40/50% damage or 20/40/60/80/100% damage to Frozen Targets. Frost Strike no longer requires Merciless Combat to be trained. Frost Aura now increases your Frost Resistance by 32/64 (old 26/49). Nerves of Cold Steel moved from Tier 3 to Tier 2. Annihilation moved from Tier 6 to Tier 3. Merciless Combat moved from Tier 8 to Tier 6. Aneurysm moved from Tier 8 to Tier 7. Unholy Corpse Explosion damage increased from 60 to 216 damage (modified by attack power). Improved Corpse Explosion length component increased from 9 seconds to 15 seconds. Unholy Aura now increases your Shadow Resistance by 32/64 (old 26/49).

World Of Warcraft: WoW WarCry's RP Guide: Article 10: RP City Tour - Silvermoon City2009-08-13 00:00:00Article Source: www.warcry.com.
Well, this week's article was supposed to be a tour of one of the newest additions to WoW - The Exodar, the crashed Draenei ship located on Azuremyst Isle. However, in what may seem to be a major turning of the tables, this Alliance 'city' is, in my opinion, completely devoid of any quality RP places matching the likes of those I've stated in this article series, and quite unlike the other Alliance cities. At first, this was a bit of a shock, but as I thought it over, I can see how the lack of such places makes sense here. It is a crashed spaceship, after all, and shouldn't bear any resemblance to the taverns and inns and other structures native to Azeroth. However, it still seems to me to be a huge waste of such a beautiful piece of game design for the Exodar to not have something strongly RP related to draw in players.
Fear not, though, for this week's RP City Tour is not without a silver lining, which comes in the equally beautiful and more sinister home of the Blood Elves, Silvermoon City. Again, the number and quality of places for potential RP here is reversed from any other Horde city. In my mind, the entire city seems to actually want to lend itself over to...
