One of the biggest patches since the launch of WoTLK goes live in Europe tonight with an enormous list of changes and fixes.The patch that precedes arena season seven has been in the background downloader for a while now but tonight it goes live across Europe. Americans will wake up to 3.2 this morning.
The list of changes in a new raid/new season patch is naturally huge but here a few of the highlights for arena players:
Of course, there will also be a new gear set for season seven, dubbed 'Relentless.' Most importantly, druids can change their cat and bear skins!
Exactly how this will affect tournament play is the real issue for SK readers, of course. With MLG and Blizzcon just weeks away, attendees have little time to adjust to the changes. You can find the complete list on the official site as always.
The list of changes in a new raid/new season patch is naturally huge but here a few of the highlights for arena players:
"* Beginning with season 7, players will no longer have access to the newest season's weapons or shoulder armor and will not qualify for the Gladiator title/rewards with ratings from the 2v2 bracket alone. Ratings obtained through 3v3 and 5v5 game play will be required for these rewards, while the rest of the newest season's items will remain available to players in all brackets (standard rating restrictions still apply).
* Dalaran Sewers
- The entire Arena has increased in size by 25%.
- Mounts can now be used in this Arena.
- The position and collision of the crates on the central platform has been modified.
- Ring of Valor: The flame wall has been removed.
* Ruins of Lordaeron
- Alcoves have been removed from the starting chambers.
- The collision around the central tomb has been smoothed out to prevent players from becoming stuck on the terrain as often."

Faction change will become available in this patch right?
YEY :D:D
i was worried that you needed 3 or 5 rating for everything in season 7 but it turns out that i'll be playing 2s not only for the points and that's a good thing, imo.
2.
