WoW - Wrath of the Lich King - Patch round up at Blues'

woges · October 18, 2008

Bluesnews has a nice round up on today's (for Europe) pre-expansion patch.

Today's version 3.0.2 patch for World of Warcraft includes Blizzard's new achievement system, and there's an Achievement System FAQ on WorldofWar.Net with details on how this works. Also, most of the character changes from testing of the Wrath of the Lich King expansion were not included in today's new update, and WorldOfWar.Net has word from Blizzard saying these changes will be rolled out on November 13 with the release of the add-on. Finally, on a semi-related note, WorldOfWar.Net quotes Mike Morhaime saying Blizzard still has a goal of annual World of Warcraft expansions, but they admit they are probably unlikely to be able to keep up with that schedule.

More information.

I wonder if they will add achievements that actually give something to your character? Or combinations of achievements that do something for you? Nothing big, maybe just add 5% to your hit points or something like that.

Pretty sure they won't from what I have seen them post.

They want those rewards that are, to be purely cosmetic.

Titles, tabards, mounts. Stuff like that.
