What -- Why -- When
Aeus brings us word(http://forums-en.wow-europe.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-general-en&t=886777) from Tigole! In Patch 1.10 there will be the 'Final Destination' feature for long adventures. You will only have to choose where to go once, and you will be taken their on one big route, as long as you have it on the flight web. If you have found any bugs on the test realm, post in the linked thread.
We also have some information(http://forums-en.wow-europe.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-general-en&t=885264) on some more changes. Emperor in BRD will have improved drop rates and some new items. You will only receive gold at level 60 for non-repeatable quests. The dodge tooltip will finally be fixed, and the English, French and German channels will be merged.
Warcraft Weekly's sister publication comes back for it's second monthly episode. The Gadgetzan Times(http://www.wow-europe.com/en/gadgetzan/gt002) is back, and better than ever. Once again I pray you ignore their funny jokes about it being the 'best', we all know where our loyalties lie, right guys? Guys? Check here(http://forums-en.wow-europe.com/thread.aspx?fn=wow-general-en&t=882266) for the links to the French + German translations, and remember: Time is money, friend.
