Upcoming WoW Changes

The World of Warcraft Website now has new patch notes from a version 4.3 update that's now live on the Public Test Realm for Blizzard's MMORPG. The notes are quite extensive, offering details on new raids, Transmogrification, Void Storage, Reforging, and more. They also say "The amount of experience needed to gain levels 71 through 80 has been reduced by approximately 33%." Thanks Ant. There's also a separate new article on planned valor changes.

Cataclysm grinding is kind of a hassle too but I find it goes by much quicker then Northrend (obviously less levels but larger XP gap). With the two BoA pieces to push between 80 and 85, you usually complete a zone such as Hyjal towards the middle to upper 82 really makes zones such as Deepholm less of a nuisance as you are there for a lot less time and can jump in to Uldum.

Usually, I iron our Hyjal > do half Deepholm > most of uldum > half of Twilight Highlands before I hit level 85.

Pair this up with a decent BG weekend and fast instances and I would dare say the grind from 80 > 85 is no sweat. When Cata released, I was on vacation and had a Redbull diet which allowed me to hit 85 in a shade under 22 hours so now with BoA gear it feels like a breeze where XP is practically handed to you on a silver platter.
