Beta Access--Who got in?

[Kalliope]

i'd complain that when they teach you about Steady shot, you don't have Hawk, so it doesn't regen any focus kind of spoiling the message of the quest, and since you can't tell the pet to stop attacking the dummy, you can't equip your new reward until you run off and the pet vanishes.

That sounds like a massive problem with the setup. I hope they fix that; that sounds really annoying.

[Noor]

Checked my battle.net acocunt and then my email to comfirm

About 3 hours of patches later and I'm in the beta

*Mutters something about "killing the lucky bastards"*
Would you mind getting me some updates on the new 1-5 process fir the old races? Actually, can I put that as a request for all of you beta-people? Not? Well screw you. The request is there. Now deal with it.

*hands Saturo a beer* You and I can sit here and shoot them all! It'll be good practice for the expansion.

I check my WoW account anywhere from 5-20 times a day, in the faint hope that I'll be in the beta...

This is going to be a loooooong 5 months...

[Kalliope]

Oh gosh, I forgot - could someone please grab a screenshot of Mankrik's wife's grave? And Mankrik himself; he was rumored to have been promoted.

Also, I'm curious to see if anything happened with Cerellean Whiteclaw. To me, he's the alliance equivalent.

[Teigan]

Mankrik's wife finally got a decent burial? It was about time!

Yep! All thanks to You awaken in Razor Hill. ^_^

It seems that there is a translucent jade owl at the Ruins of Eldre'thar in Stonetalon called an Emerald Spirit. It's supposed to look like the owls from Dragonblight, only....translucent. Screen caps would be MUCHLY appreciated.

Apparently, someone already sent Mania a screen cap of the spirit!



(I'd still love to see the wasps added in Loch Modan.)

[Daranara]

*late to the party*

I n my defense, I was away all weekend, but I'm in too!

[Kayb]

For those of you who got in, could someone take a screen of the world map? And perhaps of Nagrand in Outland? I'd be interested to see the new graphical updates with all those waterfalls and stuff. Must be pretty, right?

[Mania]

Gorgeous screenshots, Galadrael! May I use the King Reaperclaw on Mania's Arcania (with credit to you, of course).

And thank you much for checking Echeyakee!

Re: spiky raptors - I suspect they are placeholders. Blizzard did that a lot in previous expansions when the quests were ready but the art wasn't. But they also don't look terribly out of place there, so ... who knows.

[Kalliope]

I just noticed; Echeyakee is now only level 15, instead of 16. (It's on the spreadsheet, but wasn't repeated on the forums, as far as I've seen.)

[Saturo]

I meant more like if they changed the starterzones at all. Seems they did. :)
Do trolls and gnomes have their own zones now?

[Gala]

Mania, you go ahead and do whatever you want.

from my observations the Strider Clutchmother is gone, and ZG will still be available for mount farming as of now.

i have a few more screenshots of just random stuff while i was flying around, and the last 3 or so are from the worgen starting zone. (10 Images Total!)

Fridge, that's a big fish!

Then it sounds like Skoll or Dred will be taking a vacation. My hand is forced.

Great SS's!! Thank you for sharing. <-- jealous you're in beta

[Teigan]

Strider Clutchmother...is the skin itself gone or just the named bird? And if it's gone...who do I release?

[Keilden]

Sweet so I might have more time to farm ZG.

Trolls start in the Echo Ilses (Alliance doesn't really concern me), whole new experience. I'll be taking a cursory look at the other races (even alliance) eventually.
