Ritual of Summoning can be used to summon players into instances if they meet the instance requirements.

Honor will now be instantly calculated, and available for player use.

Added new PvP daily quests that send players to Halaa and the Spirit Towers of the Bone Wastes. These quests are available for Alliance and Horde at their respective local quest hubs.

# Players will no longer require an attunement quest to enter Hyjal.
# Players will no longer require an attunement quest to enter the Black Temple.

Players who have completed the attunement quests for Black Temple and Hyjal will be granted the title of “Hand of A’dal”.

You may now fight Prince Kael’thas and Lady Vashj without first killing all the other bosses in their respective dungeons.

Lots of cool updates.

That looks like the best bit to me! I remember scaling mountains about a year ago and managing to get into Hyjal. Really nice place. :)

Seems good, there's lots of whining on the official forums though. Legendary bow looks sweet (no arrows ftw).
Even though you can fight Vashj and Kael without killing the rest of the bosses, we won't be doing it. Trash will respawn quickly and well, I guess it speaks for itself.

I'm dreading how long it's going to take to download the patch.. lol.

same lol, good few hours

[Danzilla]

;o Sounds good, i like not having to get attuned for BT.

[Elkaa]

Some good, some bad.

Removing the BT and MH attunement isn't needed, at all. You can't kill Vasjh/KT - You can't kill Illidan or Archmonde, no questions asked, it just doesn't happen.

Nerfing Maggy even more than he already is? Seriously...

Sunwell kind of annoyed me as well with the way the items are done. Extending tier 6 into 8 piece, when all other sets from TBC are 5 piece and then throwing in random extras.

Oh well, at least it's something else to clear before WOTLK...

Lol yeah, the Maggy nerf is a joke. It'll be something stupid like having no chanellers which imo is the hardest part of the fight. At the moment, my guild is learning the Vashj fight and phase 2 is bloody mental and we're planning to get both 6/6 and 4/4 before we move into MH/BT, even though the attunements being removed.
You'll prolly get scrub guilds going to MH/BT though and whining on how difficult it is, even though they haven't downed Vashj and Kael.

[Crazy Bartender]

Ooh, it sounds good. I want that Rocket Mount but I don't have any cards :P.

[Ezzie.]

Lol axel wiped on flame wreath

in other news:

Yeah it's a cool patch, bare in mind theese are not the entire patch notes, blizzard are adding class changes every few days instead of adding it all in one time which makes balance issues

[Wig44.]

No diminishing returns on honor, honor is instantly calculated and available to spend after you earn it. If someone dies 50 times or more in a battleground they give no honor, People afflicted with Rez sickness do not give honor.

Those are excellent changes.

[Axel]

Flame Wreath wipes are great.

Might upload it to Youtube.
