Schwick's Weekly Rambling
Nothing to report this week, besides that I'm working on a new version of "Info About Expansion & 1.13/1.14/". It will be ready next week I hope. Also for those wondering why the archives aren't updated, Blizzard has problems with their mail server I think.
If you got ideas, complains, remarks, useful links etc.. send them towards schwickster@gmail.com or I'm sometimes online on the following IRC channel "uk.quakenet.org #wow" (registered is required).
Greetings,
Schwick (Shadowsong)
What -- Why -- When
With 1.12 right around the corner, Blizzard released the battlegroups. On that site you will see which realm is connect with which other realms. There are 9 groups varying from size and type of realms. Group 3 be sure to give me a /wave when you see me pwning or being pwned :-)

Schwick's burning? Burning Crusade you say?
The classes are finally revealed (a semi-final list) for the Blood Elves and for the Draenei.
The Blood Elves will be: Paladin, Hunter, Rogue, Priest, Mage & Warlock
The Draenei will be: Warrior, Paladin, Hunter, Mage, Priest & Shaman

Ever wondered what will happen to the AQ book upgrades when the expansion gets released? Well an answer has been given. Those skills be trainable at the trainers once the expansion gets released.

The Alliance Shamans will look the same as Horde Shamans. But, they are trying put in some small differences that will give each their own flavours.

Good news for outdoor PVP freaks, dishonourable kills will be removed from the beta expansion to see what effect is has on the new PVP/honor system. It's not sure if it will stay like that till the final expansion, but it shows that they are willing to drop the DKs.

The Informant
It was already known that there weren't any new classes coming in the expansion. However, it is a plan for the future.

More PVP changes are on their way. Blizzard is working on a matching system. The who, what and when is not sure.

1.12 PTR special (What's happening?)
News is slow on the PTR front. But here's what I could dig up.
The Grand Marshal/High Warlords restrictions per realm are gone. Also there is no honour decay change.

The "Life tap" is not intended to generate threat. This is a bug and is currently being looked at.

Life tap will also now benefit from effects which increase your spell damage.

No ETA when 1.12 will be final, but I would say about 1 or 2 weeks before it's final.
Realm (migration) update
The paid character transfers have been upgraded a lot. To see a list to transfer from a realm to another realm: http://forums-en.wow-europe.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-general-en&t=1181793&p=1
