Lots and lots of changes coming in 3.2 as seen in the patch notes for the public test realm.
Tons of class abilities and talents are being redesigned. Gameplay changes and one big change that will affect all our gear gathering ability (and sourse.. *cough* grind for gear) are the changes coming to the emblem system.
- Both the 10 and 25 player instances of the Crusaders’ Coliseum drop a new Emblem of Triumph.
- Any dungeons that previously dropped Emblems of Heroism or Valor, such as Naxxramas or Heroic Halls of Stone, will now drop Emblems of Conquest instead. Emblems of Conquest can still be converted to Valor or Heroism.
- The heroic dungeon daily quest will now reward 2 Emblems of Triumph and the normal daily dungeon quest will reward 1 Emblem of Triumph.
- The existing achievements to collect 1, 25, 50, etc. Emblems of Heroism, Valor, and Conquest have been converted to Feats of Strength since Heroism and Valor Emblems are no longer attainable.
New achievements have been added to collect various amounts of any combination of emblems.
What I’m curious about is what will happen to the emblems of Heroism and Valor that we already have. Will they be transformed into Conquests? Doubtful since the Conquests can be converted into Heroism or Valor.. so the items that are purchased with them currently will still require official Hero or Valor emblems and you’ll have to convert your new Conquest if you want to buy those items. Make sense? I did to me in my brain.. not sure if it came out that way on “paper” though.
Not all classes have as huge of changes coming as paladins do.. (just wow).. like rogues only have 2 changes, so far. Can use axes (and sword specialization talent changed to include those axes) and a change to Shadow Dance in subtlety. Paladins have .. well I can’t even begin. Check out your class.

So, what is the latest in who/what/when you are playing? I might restart my account after summer school… I am really looking forward for SC 2 or Diablo 3…
Peace

I’m looking forward to both also. D3 won’t be for another year and a half.. SC2 should be this Christmas?
Jason was hinting at getting a 40’s group together to hit dungeons and play up. Should hit 60ish by the time patch 3.2 comes out and can fly around Outlands while leveling there.. should be nice. John A has a priest up to 40ish now.. I have a Crescent, 44 mage, Jason has Varnek 44? druid.. There’s new guy Nick from work (not really new.. just new to Ameristar) he’s got a priest he’s levelling to join us (maybe, not sure if he’s gonna zoom past or not, I think so).
If he does go right on past to 80 like I think he is.. we’d need 2 more *cough* to play in the mornings after work like we used to do on Sunday nights. Please correct me if I’m wrong, Jason.
