Fourth Tile Unlocked In The Warcraft Battlecry Mosiac
As most of you have undoubtedly seen us report on (
here
,
here
, and even
here
) the
Warcraft Battlecry Mosiac
has once again reached a new milestone of
4,618
pictures for the project. Since this reaches another 1,000 images since the last update they've unlocked another tile and some new artwork has also been unlock-this time, it's is more concept art but of Ironforge!
We still have
15,382
pictures to go out of the
20,000
goal, so why don't you go out and take a picture with your factions emblem and post it on the official
Warcraft Battlecry Mosaic
page.

Shadowmourne Shards Not That Rare?
People expecting
Fragmento Sombrigélido
to have the dismal drop rates of
Fragmento de Val'anyr
(about 5%) will be pleasantly surprised by the drop rates discovered on the official World of Warcraft Armory.
The shards themselves are required for
O trono fragmentado
which requires you to gather 60 of them to create
Lamento Sombrio
. The good news is that the drop rate is
25-50%
in Normal (25-man) and
51-99%
in Heroic (25-man).
This information was pulled from the Armory page on
Shadowfrost Shard
.

3rd Tile In the Warcraft Battlecry Mosaic Unlocked!
As mentioned
several
times
in the last few weeks, the
Warcraft Battlecry Mosaic
picture submissions have once again increased in number, to 3,128 out of the 20,000 image goal to complete the mosaic. Since we've gotten another 1,000 submissions, Blizzard has unlocked another tile and a piece of art on the site to drool over—this time, it's concept art of the ruins of Dalaran in Alterac Mountains!
We've still got
16,872
pictures left to gather, so why don't you take a picture with your faction's emblem and send it in over on the official
Warcraft Battlecry Mosaic
site?

Second Gate In Icecrown Citadel Will Unlock In 28 Days
After defeating
Carrasco Saurfang
in
Cidadela da Coroa de Gelo
it has been discovered that speaking to your faction's NPC (Muradin or Saurfang) will tell you how many days are left until the next gate's unlocking. Right now it is listed as 28 days which would put the unlock date for North American realms on
January 5, 2010
.
If these numbers stay consistent between wings we most likely won't see the Lich King until
March 2, 2010
. I know it sounds like a long time but maybe this will allow them to test and tune the encounters a bit before we hit those dates and allow a lot of people to catch up so everyone has a larger pool of players to work with.
Update 2:
It seems our assumption that the rest of the gates will be on 28 day timers was wrong. Daelo has just corrected us and the extra long wait on the first gate is because of the holidays.
As noted in game, the release of the Plagueworks in Icecrown Citadel occurs 28 days after patch 3.3.0 was released. After the Plagueworks is available, you will then wait less than 28 days for the next

Add an Authenticator, Adopt a Core Hound
A nice treat for players able to login after 3.3 launched—some of them just might find, sitting in their mailbox a vicious little
Cãozinho-magma

authenticator
(mobile or physical) attached to their Battle.Net account.

Realms Are Slowly Coming Up?
Looks like Blizzard is slowly turning on most realms after the release of Patch 3.3, as of right now 63 out of the 241 North American realms have come up (including my own.) Hopefully the rest will begin to come up rather Soon™.
You can check out the realm status page
here
or view the actual login alert screen

(only when there is an alert will this page show anything.)
Edit:
Or not? Still a lot of people getting locked out of their realms. We'll see.

Warcraft Battlecry Mosaic Unlocks Second Tile
Mentioned last week
here
, the
Warcraft Battlecry Mosaic
has reached 2,068 images out of the 20,000 image goal to complete the mosaic. Since we've gone over the 2,000 mark Blizzard has seen it fit unlock another piece of the mosaic and also released another piece of art for us all to salivate over (this time it is artwork of a tauren hunter).

Arena Season 8: Wrathful Gladiator
With 3.3 approaching at an alarming pace it is about time to talk about the Future... Of Arenas. As some of you may know the next season is going to be called
Gladiador Colérico
.
Now many of you may be asking the $25,000 question: When is Arena Season 8 going to be coming out? Well I might have an answer for you, but it isn't confirmed by Blizzard in the slightest. From my calculations I am guessing that the current arena season is going to end around the end of the year, which would put it around December 29th or January 5th. The last 3 arena seasons ended after 17, 17, and 18 weeks respectively which would put those two dates in the same time frame from when the season started (Season 7 started September 1, 2009.)
Along with this we also know what the reward for season 8 is for the select few who make it into the top ranks: the legendary
Serpe Gélida do Gladiador Colérico

Warcraft Battlecry Mosaic
For those of you who don't already know, as part of the World of Warcraft 5 year anniversary, Blizzard is collecting
20,000
images of players from around the world showing pride in their respective faction. Once they have reached certain thresholds they will release exclusive art for this monumental occasion. All you have to do is take a picture of yourself with one of the faction symbols (or both!) on the site and upload them.
What you may not know is that there's a special, personal appeal to this particular event for us, since the
Battlecry Mosaic page
was actually designed and built originally by our own
Skosiris
, during an internship with Blizzard's web team. :)

So go and do your part! I've already done mine, and we would consider it a
personal
favor is you were to go over to the official site

3.3 More Than a Month Away?
According to a post by Datth (one of the official technical support posters), Patch 3.3 is more than one month away. This would put it at the end of December most likely the 29th or even early January.
Hi Alisperis,
We only provide mirror links for full client patches. Background downloads do not count. You have around 1+ month to download this file so we're not really worried about your speed. :)
As there is no official date posted and Blizzard usually doesn't even come close to mentioning them take this with a grain of salt.
But be sure to expect 3.3 sometime Soon™.

Mr. T Commercial #1 - Mohawk Grenade
The Night Elf Mohawk himself has infiltrated the game to hand out
Mohawk Grenades
to anyone who wants to pity a fool. Along with this comes a new ad campaign with new commercials featuring Mr. T himself.
Get Your Own Mohawk Grenade!
Night Elf Mohawks can be found outside of every starter zone, such as the Northshire Abbey in
Floresta de Elwynn
and Deathknell in
Clareiras de Tirisfal
. Each Mohawk Grenade lasts 1 day and when used on an unexpecting player grants them the
Moicanomorfose!
buff which lasts for 60 minutes and gives the player the face of a Night Elf Mohawk. Even after using them all up the Night Elf Mohawks will gladly give you more! An official F.A.Q. on the grenades has also been setup

3.3 Patch Notes Updated! (Build 10772)

One of the most important ones that people will be thinking of is the change to Naxxramas. You will no longer have to kill all the end bosses to access
Sapphiron
's Lair! A teleportation orb has been added to the lair to allow players to travel back and forth from the main dungeon to the lair with ease now. There is also the addition of the much awaited
