WoW - Patch 2.3

 

WoW 2.3 patch.

 

With the release of patch 2.3, we have all had time to not only play, but also get to know exactly how it affects game play in both PvE and PvP aspects. These aspects are both great parts of the game. People love to PvP, PvE, or both. I for one enjoy all of the above, and love working for my levels.

This patch, which was released on 11/13/2007, added a lot of different class changes, as well as a whole new 10 man dungeon to explore. This dungeon is The Gods of Zul'Aman and adds another great adventure for all you PvE and dungeon raiders. Don't feel left out PvPers, they also added some nice little bonuses for you. There is now a daily quest giver whom gives a quest for a different battleground each day. This not only keeps interest in quests, but also makes gaining honor a lot more fun with a goal in mind. Also, previous arena items can now be obtained by using honor points, allowing those late levelers to grind their way to arena gear, and be decently geared vs their fellow opponents.

The improvements on certian areas of gameplay exceed my expectations. The remodling and addition of quests in Dustwallow Marsh make those who disliked this area, (like me) believe that I might actually make it more of a habit to head there and try it on my alt. Impressed by the effort to make this game as enjoyable as possible, Blizzard comes through again in this patch, creating new and exciting adventures and designs.

I myself, have a level 70 hunter, and after playing with this current patch and changes to my hunter, I think this patch is awesome. I know, they made it even easier to play a hunter, but they also took away a few fun aspects, as kiting with wing clip is reduced when you can shoot with a no dead zone. They made us much better in PvP, but also added us strength in PvE. We are not the most used class in arena, but I will tell you that we are sure a lot of fun to play.

I am curious as to how the rest of our WoW community sees this patch, do you like it, love it, or do you hate it with a passion? There are a lot of changes to the game, and a lot of new introductions. I cant list them all here, but to see all the patch information follow Blizzard's WoW link here.

Blizzard still focuses to much on PvE, balancing classes so every class can be used in every format should be their top priority... World PvP is also something I would like to see improved a lot... Should be like in DAoC, take over enemy towns and such, will bring new excitment to the servers and the PvErs too ^^

Even with a new 10 man instance, PvE will still be boring in the long run. In the end it's all about the loot and how much time you can spare of your free time.

pve is trully very fun, i couldnt believe i needed less exp for like lvl53 than it was needed for lvl47, for example :P

as for pvp - besides class changes i think they really need to make some sort of an arena where people can choose equal gear, this way it is impossible to do something against 400res team, you simply have to have no life, toilet in your room and a kitchen with a maid to make you food, only then will you have a chance to match the gear of "top" guys, since skill doesnt matter, it's gear and most imba class that matters.

If force won't work, use greater force.

You my friend are confusing PvP with PvE.

They already have an arena. resiliance is a pvp stat wich you get from pvp. They should make an instance where when you enter you get all the loot in the instance so you can have as much fun as other guilds.... lol

See my point? Btw, if you're not good in PvP you wont be getting the arena gear as fast as other players :) It's only fair. I had no problem competing without arena gear in arenas. Other teams don't have that problem either. You can get 2k rating with PvE gear mostly. And I play in one of the hardest battlegroups in the world :>

#1, I agree.

PvE is fun, but by far I enjoy the PvP aspect.

I also love twinking, because I love going into a lower battleground with the best gear lol.

Respect the things you cannot change..
