Region Wide Battlegroup Matchmaking Update
Bashiok has just posted an update showing the current progress on
Region-Wide Battlegroup Matchmaking
.
Phase 2 was implemented today—in this phase Whirlwind, Emberstorm, Vengeance and Bloodlust are now all linked for Battleground queues. Whirlwind and Emberstorm are now also linked in the Dungeon Finder queue. The same thing is true of Stormstrike, Nightfall and Retaliation. In the final phase all battlegroups for the Dungeon Finder will be linked together by their physical location.

Cataclysm Cinematics & Direct Download
Some of you may have heard something about users who use the direct download method of obtaining Cataclysm not getting any cinematics—like the new Cataclysm intro trailer, or Wrathgate-style cinematics.
Thankfully last night Bashiok put everyones fears to rest! He clarified that users will be getting these files, just at a later date closer to the release of Cataclysm. So don't worry! Everything will be fine and we'll have all the cinematics in due time!

Elemental Invasion Has Begun!
One of the final Cataclysm pre-launch events has begun! Elementals will now be invading remote outposts — and a few major cities as well! It's your job to fight back and eventually gain a rare Feat of Strength -
Rissreisen
. Along with the invasions, the Twilight Hammer cultists are now stirring up trouble in the most important cities of the Alliance and the Horde - Stormwind and Orgrimmar. The entire event is still in Phase 1 (out of 4), so the danger isn't extreme... but who knows how grim things will become in a week or three?
You can check out our guide on the new events plus some other invasion info in our
Cataclysm Guide

Worgen Running Wild Mount Video
As many of you already know
Worgen
are not receiving a standard mount in Cataclysm—Instead they are gaining a new ability called
Wilde Hatz
. This spell has a 1.5 second cast time like any other mount in the game, but instead of getting onto a mount the player drops down onto all fours and is able to run at ground mount speed. This ability does scale with your riding skill allowing it to go 60% speed at level 20 and 100% at level 40.
We also have a short video clip of the new ability in action! Check it out below!

Upcoming Tanking Changes
This morning
Nethaera
announced on the official forums some
changes to tanking
we will be seeing in Cataclysm. Currently only Paladins and Warriors are scheduled to have changes. and druids and death knights may need changes as testing progresses further. According to Nethaera block chance is getting too high too quickly and causing abilities like
Schildblock
to behave strangely.

Blizzard is once again joining players for a match or two, this time in their
focus testing
of
Tol Barad

The testing will begin at 4PM PDT (UTC-7) on Wednesday October 27th! They've made some changes since the last time they had a round of testing, including tripling the health pools of siege engines and lowering the damage taken on vehicles before a player hops in for the first time.

Siege Engine HP tripled to 1.35m.
Tower HP reduced from 180000 to 150000.
Vehicles now protected from 99% of damage until someone hops in the first time.

Cataclysm Beta: New Data!
We've pushed another amazing update to the Cataclysm site in the form of more user-collected data. If you head over to our
Latest Additions
page you will find out that we have added
163 new items
, most of which seem to be heroic dungeon gear!
You'll find many awesome items you'll be able to gather at level 85, such as
Schädelknackerring
(which will be awesome for any rogue or feral druid). There are even some new quests and NPCs in this update.

Beta Raid Testing Schedule
Looks like we are finally going to get a chance to test the new Cataclysm raids! On Sunday
October 17th
at 13:00 PDT beta testers will be able to test the
Omnitron Defense System
in
Pechschwingenabstieg
and
Halfus Wyrmbreaker
in
Die Bastion des Zwielichts
.
If you plan to take a trip into either instance this weekend we would hope you are running the
Wowhead Client
to help gather data for the encounters!
We're going to start testing a few raid encounters on all Beta servers this Sunday, October 17 at 13:00 PDT. Two encounters will be tested:
Omnitron Defense System in Blackwing Descent
Halfus Wyrmbreaker in The Bastion of Twilight
Blackwing Descent is a raid zone with an entrance located along the side of Blackrock Mountain.
The Bastion of Twilight's entrance is located within Twilight Highlands.
Since these are the beta realms, this schedule is subject to change at a moment's notice due to bugs and server issues. More raid tests will be occurring over the next few weeks.

Hotfix for Violet Proto-Drake and Master Riding
A hotfix is being deployed for players who are obtaining
Zügel des violetten Protodrachen
through
Was für eine lange, seltsame Reise...
, currently as it stands you do not receive
Meisterhaftes Reiten
(310% flight speed) upon getting the drake. With this hotfix when you obtain the drake you will automatically learn the new Master Riding skill.
I provided an update in the lengthy thread about Master riding, so in case it gets missed I'm throwing it up in its own non-sticky thread for now.
http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=27187849344&sid=1&pageNo=28
I have a slight update to spread to the masses. We are going to be adding a hotfix for the achievement What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been. This hotfix will make it so that obtaining the Reins of the Violet Proto-Drake will award players Master riding.
The way in which 310% will be awarded is going to be a little quirky at first, but we plan to make it a more smooth process in a future patch. For now, you will need 280% flying in order to learn to use the Violet Proto-Drake. Once you mount the drake for the first time it will teach Master ri

Cataclysm Beta (Build 13195) More Tier 11 Models!
We've got another update for that sneaky Cataclysm Beta build from today, this time with more models! This new set includes
Tier 11
for both
Hunters
and
Paladins

Honestly I think the Paladin set looks pretty bad-ass and really makes me want to finish leveling mine. Also which hunter doesn't want to wear MURLOCS as part of their tier set? I know I would! You can check out all these new sets and more after the break.

BlizzCon 2010 Goodie Bag Leaked?
Thanks to the folks over at
Rawrcast
we have a leaked picture of what seems to be the major goodie in this years BlizzCon 2010 bag.
"Dethling"
is a maquette, read: scale model, based on the big bad ass - Deathwing. Much like last year's Jim Raynor n00bz figure you won't be able to purchase this item in the stores! Looks like BlizzCon attendees are in for a special treat after all!

Now, we aren't sure if this is real or not! Could very well be a very elaborate troll - why don't you decide for yourself?
I'm personally hoping it is the real deal!

Wowhead: Justice Points Filters Now Available
The developers here at Wowhead have been slaving away in an effort to make our main site compatible with 4.0.1. While they were at it, they added a new feature that you will all enjoy:
Justice Points
costs are now displayed on items!
There is even a new
filter
option so you can check out all the costs for items. This new feature is also extended to the new Honor Points, and even Conquest and Valor points once we are Cataclysm-bound.
You may notice we don't have costs for everything that should have cost. Well, fear not! If you are running the
Wowhead Client
and see anything that is missing we should have the information in the very near future.
