It's been updated. Not sure where you were getting it.

Warrior T12 shown on MMO-Champ looks pretty good. I still think paladin is the best-looking from what they've shown so far though.
4.2 is shaping up to be pretty exciting. If it hits mid-summer that would be pretty convenient for me as I would have some time to play it then and throughout a little bit of the school year before getting bogged down with work.

Alcaz Island is listed as a dungeon zone on wowhead for 4.2 (and was apparently referred to as so by a blue post on the EU forums, via the MMO-Champ forums.)
EDIT:
Also - Battle.net community sites for SC2 and WoW are down right now. It will allow you to manage your account, but forums and stuff aren't accessible supposedly due to a high volume of traffic. What's up with that? I have no idea why they would be inundated with traffic today of all days - there isn't anything special going on right now as far as I know, unless they're just getting hammered with people downloading the 4.2 PTR.

Hah, I love stupid puns.
Just noticed these three NPC names in Sporregar (click for big).

Yeah, I tried arcane for a raid the other day. I was hitting 70k burst at the start of the fight but otherwise doing disappointing DPS relative to the raid.
Mana is ridiculous as arcane, I was staying at around 100% the entire fight. It means I need about 1.5x more haste I think. But then the top end raiding mages seem to reforge everything into mastery for arcane specs. I'm not sure what to do, other than stay fire.

Oh wow, this totally fixed it. Was getting it from curse, maybe just didn't get the newest version or maybe curse is behind the times. Thanks a ton.

I think we can safely say they've postponed or abandoned Abyssal Maw for 4.2.PatzCU said:

Leveled my first char to level 85, a Ret pally. Collected some tanking gear and changed into Prot. Boy, do I have to get used to tanking, so much responsibility 
Queues are extremely fast though, will just do some normals and buy some JP items and try to get exalted with all the Cata factions (and with The Netherwing, I want that Netherwing Drake) before going into Heroics.

The last two days of WoW have been amazing for me. Two days ago I won the amani bear, andafter a few months our guild got a consistent roster (we've been lacking healers or diversity of dps) and with just three trys of this roster we killed nefarian 25N (I know, sad), and yesterday we killed Halfus 25HM with just two trys.
I hope we're on rails again. I want to make a few more hms before 4.2 hits even though we may not kill Sinestra in time.
Yay, fire elemental on every try instead of once every 2 or 3 trys!

I haven't found it to be particularly better than Destro, and it's a lot less versatile than Destro.SquirrelNuckle said:

Finished the Long, Strange Trip achievement. Whew. School of Hard Knocks didn't take me more than a couple of games per BG - the others involved for Children's Week are easy though.
I'm probably done until 4.2 at the very least though. Even then, I'm not sure how eager I'll be to jump through the hoops of finding a new fairly competitive guild, especially if I have to transfer to do so. I'd be more inclined to make a move if my economic stability wasn't so dependent on my intra-character profession cartel on the current server.

Just got an email from Blizz for a free 7 days. Should I do it? I haven't played since the end of December. Lock's any good right now?

^^ Congrats!
I was still trying to finish the Ulduar achieves before Cata released, but never got a group solid enough to finish it up. I'd still like to go back and finish that sometime as well as the ICC achieves as they should be pretty easy with a competent group now.
Hell, it might even be worth a shot taking 15-20 people and going for the 25-man version of Ulduar as well. ICC would be a bit more difficult there.

I did ICC10 Heroic yesterday for the achievements, it was quite easy even with 2-3 people never having done the instance. We did wipe thrice in the LK though. Great fight even at 85. So yeah you should be able to do it with a decent group.
Why in the world would you use a mount from old content you got late? Just because you like it and it looks cool, you should be above aesthetics in WOW. People will look up your achievements and conclude they are better at wow than you, ignoring the concept of alts and skipping a tier. It's all about the current e-peen mount. East Wind. Get on it.SquirrelNuckle said:

My guild went Atramades after Halfus heroic, I found it to be pretty easy. Definitely easier than Chimaeron.

i wonder if they're gonna do another 2 dungeons for 4.3 and then the next raid will be 4.4
4.2 Restoration Druid
- Restoration 2 Pieces - Your periodic healing from Lifebloom has a 40% chance to restore 1% of your base mana each time it heals a target.
What? Epic. I can't really see this going live or not getting nerfed to 20% at least.
- Restoration 4 Pieces - When your Lifebloom blooms, it instantly heals up to 2 nearby injured targets for the same amount.
Useless. Beyond useless. 1st, you should NEVER let Lifebloom expire on your tank during raid fights. Why? First, 3LB stacks means that if you have 4pc T11 you'll get 540 Spirit, if you have 2pc T12 you'll have 1% mana regen each 2 or 3 thicks. Second, by the time you re apply 3 stacks of LB you'll loose time and mana.
This could work only in 5mans but again it would basically ammount to maybe 2 or 3% of your total healing. In a raid environment where tanks are away from DPS you would be healing 2 targets (few fights require 3 tanks and if they do they are never in the same place anyways) and would result in a HPS loss (reapplying 3LBS => loss of time and not mana efficent). Not to take in account Blizz nerfed Lifebloom bloom by like 40% so its letteraly useless.
A good suggestion would be like
"Your Rejuvenation periodic healing has a 50% chance to refresh your Lifebloom duration on your target"

Is anyone else in a guild where the members just log in to raid then log out after, It's rare to see more then 15 people on in my "Hardcore" guild that I do most of my progression in, then see 40-50 in my other guild that I hang with and sometimes raid on, they do progression raiding but just not as "Hardcore".
It annoys the fuck out of me, trying to get people in guild to do stuff like a heroic and getting crickets, feels like I'm raiding with robots because I know jack shit about people in guild.

It's just that time of the year, I have always found it comes and goes like a tide, depending on what kind of guild you're in, who is in it, etc. Most guilds when raiding is 'tough' and takes a lot of effort, people tend to want to do other things outside of raiding hours. Farm time is when people tend to be on MORE outside of raiding. Aside from that, summer usually has more away time for folks as well, and winter more. Probably frustrating as a new member, but you can't force people to stick around and do stuff with you either.
