I love big crusades and I can not lie? Burning Crusade you say?
Lots of little new information has come on the web. Lets start shall we:
The Shaman and Paladin loot tables will be open for the Horde/Alliance when the expansion comes. So potential Alliance Shamans and potential Paladin Blood Elves, don't worry, you will get your loot.

An estimated price what the expansion will cost was revealed this week. Currently it will cost you $40-50. However, take this price with a grain of salt, it's still an estimate and can still change.

Current brackets added to the expansion for PVP will be L60-69 & L70. They are also looking into some more misc. brackets that aren't level specific. (Also here, it's an estimate, and not final yet)
