Live Publié 26/05/2011 à 17:01 par Miyari
Patch 4.2 PTR Patch Notes have just been updated, documenting a number of fairly major class changes including a ton of bear Druide adjustments and some brand spankin' new Voleur changes! Some additions which were actually added with the 5/24 patch notes update have had their text clarified (so if some things look familiar, that's why).
The Keyring bag slot has been removed to make room in the user interface for new features.
Keys which no longer serve a purpose in the game will be removed from player inventories. Compensation for the keys will be automatically provided in the form of each key's vendor sell price in gold.
Keys which are obsolete quest items will be removed from player inventories.
Keys which may still be of use to players will be transferred to regular inventory space. If a player's bags are full, these keys will sit in a backlogged inventory until sufficient space is made available. Once space is opened, the keys will appear in regular inventory upon the player logging out or switching zones.
