I don't really have any first impressions for 3.3.
I was stuck on the loading screen for HoR for like... I dunno.. 2 hours.
Actually, after the dust settled, I was able to run through the new 5 mans--which are definitely a breath of fresh air from the other WotLK heroics. And, I have to say, the live versions feel so much better than the ptr. Trash is a little more epic, and by the time you get to HoR, you're screaming for more.
The Quel'delar hilt dropped for just about everyone but me (I rolled a 1)--and I'm told that the quest line is good fun. For now, I'm still stuck with my huntard-sword =(
Did some random heroics with the new LFG interface. Two words: Fricken amazing.Late last night stepped into the ICC-10: Trash is muh-tha-fuckin epic. A definite DPS check. And, there's a whole room full of that shit. Tried Marrowgar a couple of times, but it was late, and we just weren't in the groove. We'll head back in tonight for some more action.

At least the new loading screens are pretty.
ReplyDeleteI have a love-hate relationship with that tunnel where all the stuff is falling down a la Hodir. It sucks for me as a caster, but the feeling of constant danger was epic. There was no slacking off in that part.
Where does the hilt drop? I have yet to see one.
Should be in ICC 10 tonight!
It drops from any of the new 5 mans. Actually dropped for us on the second trash pull.
ReplyDelete4 of my guildies got em =(
My ICC recommendation: Be careful. Kill casters first. Don't get close to the skeletons in the wall--they come out =)
Learned it all the hard way.
