    I think Mr. not a free man has a wider screen than you do.
    I didn't even realise they were three seperate images.

    The first one is her current model on live.
    The second one was never her model, it's someones attempt in the model viewer.
    The third is her new model.

    Actually the model was changed twice. The second (or some variation of it) was even implemented long enough to be temporarily used in the Battle for Undercity quest line (along with a shittier Wrynn model). Believe me, if I wanted to include fan-made images, there'd be a lot more.

    What I love about the new Sylvanas model is that, while it barely has more polygons, the texture work makes it look like it's a straight-up painting.

    This is exactly why S4 will end with 3.0 or earlier. There is no way they could possibly let roaming ret paladin rape packs go live after having people fight for placing for the past several months. The bitching from the pvp'ers would be legendary.

    I dunno what would make Retadins anymore "OP" than Deadly Brew rogues, or Survival hunters or something. I'm not arguing they won't be ridiculously bursty, but I don't know that they're the pinnacle of burst damage.

    So are people not bothering to do the brewfest dailies anymore (except for the boss)? I see somebody doing the barking quest every now and then, one or two doing the relay, and the last couple of times I was out in the main brewfest area in front of org there was nobody bothering with the dark iron invasion event. It's a far cry from last year's event.

    Well, without the 600 token mount reward, most people are either not bothering with the non-boss parts, or stopping the dailies once they hit a particular reward (the "brew of the month" thing in my case).

    Look at what you can buy with tokens from this years Brewfest people have all that crap already.

    I got my Brew of the Month club membership and my B.E.E.R goggles and haven't bothered with it since.

    If the item to turn my mount into a Kodo didn't have a limit on how long it lasted I would probably be buying those.

    Who in their right mind would do Arena after 3.0? knowing that all points go down the drain in a few weeks
    Add in the new specs and total blood elf ret paladin dominance

    No arguement here, I was just wondering if it was as bad on other servers. Blizzard really seemed to drop the ball on brewfest this year.

    I think what the big problem is with Paladins having their new talents for Ret is that from what I've heard it scales very, very well at 70 and lessens as you level but still stays quite good. One would have to mess around on the PTR for awhile I suppose.

    back when the 2.0 patch came out I saw some horrifying specs people were trying out most of them figured out what they did and did not like on the grind to 70

    I know there are some very crazy people who all for the arena anymore I just don't see why anyone would go there knowing what I said earlier

    I read the quest info while doing that quest. Turns out that at the beginning of the month they mail you a brew, and if you like it you can go to a vendor in Ironforge and buy more of that brew.

    Fun fact I just noticed about the Wrathgate cutscene.
    There doesn't seem to be any Draenei in there anywhere. Every other race is accounted for (okay, I didn't see any Blood Elves in there either, but there are a few High Elves so that kinda sorta counts), but Draenei are mysteriously missing. I guess they just don't like the cold or something?

    Not really about your observation, but about Wrathgate in general:
    How important is Bolvar to the lore? I haven't really looked him up on WoWWiki.

    He ruled Stormwind during King Douchebag's absence (and did a hell of a job at it, too, taking advice from that Prestor woman and allowing the Defias and the orcs to overrun a lot of the human lands) and he's King Douchebag's childhood friend or something, giving Douchey a reason to declare war on the Horde when he snuffs it at the Wrathgate.

    As far as I can remember, he hasn't been in any of the previous WarCraft games, but it's been a while since I played them.

    Short answer: No. Further storyline spoilers to follow.
    During the ensuing quest line, Varimathras and Putress (the Forsaken in the cutscene) take over the Undercity, summon a bunch of demons there and kill anyone who doesn't join them. Sylvanas and the Forsaken loyal to her escape to Orgrimmar where Sylvanas convinces Thrall that she had nothing to do with the betrayal at the Wrathgate. Then she and Thrall travel to the Undercity, kill a bunch of demons and eventually slay Varimathras.

    Meanwhile, in the Alliance version of this quest line, King Douchebag and the Alliance forces invade the Undercity and kill Putress. Then King Douchebag gets to the throne room and declares a war on the Horde, and just as they're gonna duke it out Jaina comes and teleports the Alliance forces out of the Undercity.

    Most likely because
    they aren't really as invested in Bolvar/Saurfang. The Draenei just got here, and the Blood Elves, until recently, were more concerned with what Kael'Thas wanted.

    The Trolls, Orcs, Tauren, and Forsaken all have a lot to do/care about when Saurfang jr talks, and the Humans, Gnomes, NElves, and Dwarves all have a lot to do with Bolvar.
