Same for me, I copied to the PVE when queue was empty. The char is not there. Unlike you I can't make new level 1 chars. It tells me "already at the limit of new chars for this account". However I am on my real account really at the char limit of 50 chars or so, so this might influence it.

Also I noted that the name of the PVP realm is in parenthesis for whatever reason. Also, I don't see any way to select "US" or "Korean" Test servers as was announce, but maybe they are down still. Can US players see the two EU PTRs ?

Some of the changed retribution items are linkable on the PTR (probably the vendor ones):

Gladiator's Scaled Chestpiece - Items - World of Warcraft becomes 31 str, 45 sta, 23 int, 38 crit, same sockets.

Justicar Breastplate - Items - World of Warcraft becomes 42 str, 24 sta, 33 int, 25 crit, same sockets.

Crystalforge Breastplate - Items - World of Warcraft becomes 56 str, 40 sta, 20 int, 23 hit, 21 crit, same sockets.

I'm stuck on the loading screen, but apparantly someone is linking a lot of stuff. Tier 6 boots and stuff. I'll update soon with pictures.

Yes, Death Knight tanks are/were too good in 3.0.x. Having 38k HP, 76.81% Avoidance (Miss incl.) and not gimping your threat in the first tier of gear is broken. (Yes this is clickable)

Or they could be the 3 new pieces of the T6 sets?

 

Covertghost

Yeah, I think the 3 new pieces of the T6 sets ARE the new badge loot, tbh.

We'll see shortly I guess.

 

Rasputin

Those are more likely the 3 pieces of T6 that drop in Sunwell, as mentioned earlier in this thread. In fact, they are those pieces.

 

Oaken

So does that mean if we defeat him, Blood Elf Paladins suddenly become plain Warriors?

You asked earlier what you could do to provide more information - I think the burning question for a lot of us that you could answer is actually get to Sunwell Isle and check out the new badge vendor that Drysc mentioned. People are dieing to find out what exactly it means to have "T6 level badge loot" available with 2.4. Weapons only? Itemization holes filled? Trinkets/rings/other-hard-to-acquire-RNG-dependent-drops?

I would guess that you need to take a boat to get there - not exactly sure where it would leave from since the only port I know of was overrun by fel blood elves.

 

Illundai

Yeah, well. How the hell do I get there? There's no boat, no flightpath, no teleport.

I hope those will be tokens, don't want another MC like full Might fiasco :P

I recall someone mentioning a boat from Exodar possibly, can't confirm though, can't access the PTR copy page.

[Lightbringer Chestpiece]Same set name, with the same bonuses. Seems pretty clear it's the continuation of existing t6 sets, which were already confirmed as being Sunwell drops.

 

Oaken

No, we can't. I get to the "Choose a Realm" screen and it asks me to select a preferred location. The only available option is "United States" and when I select it no available realms come up.

 

Haske

From linking one of the Mark of the Illidari Flasks on the PTR, it seems they cannot be used in Sunwell.

 

Illundai

A lot of pictures incoming. Give me 5 minutes!

Let's see some of those new badge rewards.

 

Rasputin

My loins are a-quiver with anticipation.

WoR has the new pieces of T6 up. They appear to be obtained by turning in tokens dropped in Sunwell Plateau. I'll let someone else reverse-engineer the ilevel and see what they come in at.

Druid Feral / Balance / Restoration
Hunter
Mage
Paladin Holy / prot & ret not up yet
Priest Shadow / Holy
Rogue
Shaman Enhancement / Restoration
Warlock
Warrior DPS / Protection

edit 1: Warrior Prot added.
edit 2: Shaman Enhancement added.
edit 3: Shaman Resto added.
edit 4: MMO-Champion has everything up, head there if yours is missing from this post.

The new T6 belt, bracers, and boots make perfect sense because upgrading to T6.5/7 would never be worth dropping your 4 set bonus. The question is whether these extra set pieces drop from Sunwell or are Badge Rewards or are even loot from the 5man heroic.

 

Illundai

Enjoy:

[e]Ugh, Imageshack scales down. Fixed it now.

Fix your picture, impossible to read anything on it.

 

• Smithist

According to MMO, they're going to be from Sunwell. They could certainly be mistaken but it would be strange for t6 set pieces to suddenly become badge rewards.

 

Psi

It's tiny ><

 

◊ Praetorian

That's impossibly small.

It has been resized.

 

Illundai

Wow, you guys are spamming F5. I fixed it now, sorry. Didn't know IS would scale it down.

Threepi

Hmm, expansion of T6 pieces could be pretty awesome. As far as hunters go, I'd love most of those pieces, and that means I could upgrade T6 Helm/Chest/Etc without breaking the 4-piece bonus.

I'd like to see them as badge loot that requires like revered Scale/Ashtongue rep or something.
