World of warcraft: Cataclysm

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm is the next expansion
for World of
Warcraft. Dark and forgotten threats that have long
stayed out of sight
have finally arrived on our shores, unleashing a
cataclysmic event upon
Azeroth and now preparing more nefarius plans
to take it back.

Level Cap
The level cap in the next expansion
will be slightly lower than expected this time around; 85.

This
suggests
Blizzard wants more room for expansions before hitting the
level 100
cap. With less leveling to do (along with the revamped
leveling
listed below likely to increase the speed and ease of
leveling),
leveling a new race remains appealing for new and existing
players
alike.

Leveling from 80-85 should be a much bigger deal,
the
idea is to make sure that gaining a level really means something
and
doesn't make you feel like you just have 4 more levels to go.

New
Classes
Cataclysm
doesn't introduce any new classes to the game.
Instead, Blizzard have
offered more race and classes combinations to
players. The Some of
these have alreadly been datamined from the
3.2.2 Test Realms. The An
Injured Colleague quest and it's new Night
Elf counter-part help to
introduce the lore for these new race and
class combinations, so we can
probably expect to see more of these
for some of the less traditional
ones.

* Human Hunter

* Orc Mage
* Night Elf Mage
* Dwarf Mage
* Blood
Elf Warrior
* Dwarf Shaman
* Undead Hunter

* Tauren Paladin
* Tauren Priest
* Gnome Priest
*
Troll Druid



New Races
The
events of the
cataclysm has caused two new races to seek new allies.
The Goblins
for the Horde and the Worgen for the Alliance.

Goblins
Deathwing
once
again sought the services of the goblins, as slaves. Unable to
refuse
such an offer, the goblins were enslaved by him. A large group
have
resisted however. With their previous homes devastated by the
cataclysm,
they escaping to an island off the coast of The Barrens. As
they
strive to recover, they come across an Orc captured on an Alliance
ship
and rescue him. The Orc turns out to be none other than Thrall
himself,
and in return offers the Goblins a place within the Horde.
These
events are carried out in a quest line, allowing players to
experience
first-hand the reasons behind the Goblins' shift from
neutrality.

Worgen
The
cataclysm has cracked open the
Greymane Wall, finally revealing what
has happened to the kingdom of
Gilneas and its citizens. With the
Worgen curse taken hold, they have
found a partial cure, allowing
thme to retain their Human minds even
when transformed. Venturing
forth from Gilneas and seeking help from
the Alliance, they have
decided to join them, to combat the new threats
of Cataclysm.

Gilneas
will make extensive use of the phasing
system (much like the Death
Knight starting area), to show what
happened while the kingdom was
cut off from the rest of the world and
lead up to present day.

Worgens
will have two forms, a Worgen form and a Human form. Players will be
able to customise the look of both forms.

New Content
Cataclysm
will
be the first expansion not to introduce a new continent, instead
making
use of previously unreleased zones and revamping existing ones.

Classic
Azeroth Revamp
A
cataclysmic event caused by Deathwing and
Azshara will change the face
of Azeroth as we know it. Most of the
new content for Cataclysm will
take the form of a revamped Azeroth,
taking advantage of newer
additions to WoW such as phasing and daily
quests. Most of the quests
and mobs in the classic zones will also be
redesigned to make leveling
less painful. With the revamp, a greater
narritive and sense
progression will be offered to players. Some
zones and dungeons will
change drastically to fit this, e.g.,

* The Barrens will be split into two separate zones of two different
level bands.
* Azshara will become a low level (~10-20) zone.
* Some of the zones like the Thousand Needles will be flooded.
*
Durotar is wrecked and apparently Orgrimmar could be destroyed. A new
Orc
city is rebuilt over the course of the expansion.
* Gnomeregan
will
be part of the expansion as well and gnomes might be able to
reclaim
their capital. (The last part is still unconfirmed)
* Wailing
Caverns will be become a lush tropical area as a result of the druid's
magic.
* The Blackrock Spire will erupt and a new version of
Blackrock
Mountains will be available, apparently Ragnaros will be
back too.


In
the aftermath of the cataclysm, and the new
conflicts on the horizon
relief efforts can be found in many zones
and new open PvP areas
similar to Lake Wintergrasp.

Flying in
Azeroth
Part of the
redesign of the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor
is the introduction of
flying to the two continents, allowing access
to many new areas and
quicker travelling across the large continents.

Classic
Dungeon Revamp
Redesigning
Onyxia's Lair in Patch 3.2.2 was just
the first step. As most of the
leveling will take place in revamped
areas of Azeroth, so too will the
dungeons, allowing players to use
them to level from 80 to 85.

Unreleased Zones & Dungeons
With
the
addition of flying mounts to Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms and
the
redesign of many zones, most of the previously unreachable or
incomplete
zones will now be made available to players. This is where
most of
the new content from 80 to 85 will take place. Some of these
are,

* Hyjal (present)
* Gilneas - The Worgen starting Zone.

* Uldum


It
is unclear if the old Goblin locations such
as Kezan and Undermine will
be included in Cataclyms with the
revelation of the goblins' plight,
but several new islands have also
been risen from the seas by the
events of Cataclysm, some on the
backs of giant sea turtles and whales,
with the addition of several
underwater zones.

Characters and Events

Deathwing
Deathwing
the
Destroyer / Neltharion the Earth-Warder will play a major role in
Cataclysm.
Having been driven mad by Old God whisperings and turning
against
his own kind only to be fail in his attempts, Deathwing has
sunk into
the shadows. While the Horde and the Alliance were busy
fighting
back the Burning Legion only to then be beset with the
Scourge, he
has been lurking and moving things into place. After Lady
Sinestra's
failed attempts to create a Twilight Dragonflight, he again
retreated
to Grim Batol and succeeded where she failed. With his
results seen
in the Obsidian Sanctum, he has finally created the
supreme
Dragonflight he sought and plans to unleash it upon the world.
But
what of the Old Gods' sway over him?

Azshara
Queen
Azshara
will also play a major part in Cataclysm. Unknown to many
mortal
races, long forgotten by others, and believe to be dead by her
own
kind, she has not been dormant in depths of the Maelstrom. Having
those
around her transformed by the Old Gods into Naga after her
failure
in the War of the Ancients, she has become far more powerful
and a
greater threat than she once was. Not content with just Nazjatar
and
the depths of the sea, Azshara seeks to reclaim power and reign
once
again. With the true plan behind Lady Vashj's support of Illidan
remaining
a mystery we do not know what hand Azshara has yet played.
The big
question remains, is she now serving her "saviors", the Old
Gods?

The
Cataclysm
I'm still not sure who is the true end
boss of
Cataclysm is, but the cataclysm appears to have been caused by
attempts
to incantation to summon extremely powerful beings using an
ancient
incantation by Deathwing and Azshara. They're both very
powerful, but
the cataclysm itself suggests something more powerful is
behind it,
perhaps their shared past of Old God influence?

The Guardian of
Tirisfal
Malfurion
Stormrage will be returning to Azeroth to aid
in the creation of the
new Guardian of Tirisfal - Thrall! Med'an's
role in these events is
currently unknown.

The New (New) Horde
Thrall
will hand over
the leadership of the Horde to Garrosh Hellscream,
while he serves as a
coordinator for both the Horde and Alliance
forces in and effort to
combat the new threat of the Naga and Black
Dragonflight. Without
Thrall to keep Garrosh in check, he declares
open war on the Alliance.
In the political upheaval Cairne Bloodhoof
is implicated as a traitor
to the Horde and murdered by Garrosh.
Cairne's son Baine takes over as
the new Tauren chieftan. This could
explain why Baine was removed from
the game in Patch 3.2.2, you can
find more information about this in
Ahmo Thunderhorn - replacement
for Baine Bloodhoof?
