Back to the updates, they’ve kicked out a new setting where you’re trying to take back some lands from a traitorous group within your faction. Since the Lich King has fallen both Warrior and Rogue think it’s about time to turn their eyes inward and take care of the unrest within their own borders. That way they won’t have anything to worry about the next time something really major happens. After all, you don’t want to be caught unprepared when Doomsday arrives. And while the ingame characters are unaware of what is to come, we aren’t. May as well make sure we’ve gotten all of the good gear there is to loot out there while we can. No telling what won’t be available after the launch of Cataclysm.
On a lighter note, Brewfest is running right now. Similar to last year there are a ton of quest available, all focused (as focused as one can be at a party called Brewfest, anyway) on getting, enjoying, and protecting booze. There are tankards everywhere and free flowing kegs for when you run dry.
Plus, there are even related quests. You can save the booze from dwarves who appear to be opposed to having a good time. One is even a nasty boss who drops epic gear! Also, you can sign up for the brew of the month club, ride rams (don’t ask, I don’t really want to have to find out for you), and even take part in a keg tapping ceremony that gives you an xp buff! Yay for bleary fun!
