Patch 3.3 Drops in WoW
Old news by now as far as the internet goes, but patch 3.3 dropped yesterday in World of Warcraft. Quite arguably the biggest and most important thus far in the game, at least from a lore perspective. Dubbed Fall of the Lich King, this patch culminates the storyline involving Arthas that began in Warcraft 3 years ago. Blizzard released a pretty good trailer for this patch you can check out after the break.
Between the extended maintinence and servers crashing, I have been able to get in a couple runs of The Forge of Souls and one run in Pit of Saron. It’s hard to pass judgement quite so early, but as a bear tank I found Pit of Saron to be a little easier to tank. The main problem for me is that in The Forge of Souls (at least on regular) mobs are so spread that I had problems keeping rage up between pulls. Once I got a pull it wasn’t much better due to pulls of caster groups that are spread out from each other. In Saron the mobs were nice and packed together with plenty of clusters around.
I have yet to use the random dungeon tool that replaced dailies, so I can’t really comment on that too much. I’m a fan of the Disenchant roll that was added, expect prices on mats to plummet. I’ll post back with more over the next week as I get settled in and Blizzard works out all of the bugs.
