Według mnie będzie bardzo fajny dodatek, najbardziej podoba mi się wybór frakcji na pandarenach, czyli na 10lvl wybieramy sobie Ally/Horda. Ja czekam z niecierpliwością, a wy?

They really want you to feel like you have a menu of content where you can pick whatever you want to do, and you shouldn't feel forced to do something to progress your character. For example, daily quests will reward you with valor points but it will still be faster if you raid of course.Character builds are going to be entirely revamped. Talents were still too cookie cutter, so the developers want to give players more choices in their talents.Pandaria5 New leveling zones to exploreSingle, unified continentInfluenced by Asian landscapesAH, Bank, and Central Questing HubNo flying until max levelThere's 5 leveling zones but they are very large zones, and you won't have your flying mount.Lore of PandariaA long, storied history.Magically hidden since The SunderingA new land to explore....Pandaria was discovered during the cataclysm, a naval battle between horde and alliance was taking place close to it.Pandaren starting zoneIt's a turtle!

You will see them in dungeons.Sha: Manifestation of the evil energies that flow through the earth. If there is any sort of battle these guys pop up.The Jade ForestThis is where Alliance and Horde will be landing. The horde is washing up on the north side, the alliance on the south side. There will be one unified start zone and Alliance/Horde will end up meeting up in the middle.Lush rainforests and stone spiresThe Alliance will try to become friend with the Hozu, and the Horde with the Jinyu and will try to turn them against each other.Temple of the Jade Serpent will be the dungeon of this zone. It will be your 85-86 Dungeon, it has been taken over by ShaValley of the Four WindsTwo zones for the price of one!

You can go back and switch side if you want the other quests.The dungeon of this zone is Stormstout Brewery.This is where you will have your first interaction with the Mantids, they broke through the wall and are now attacking pandarens villages.This is a level 86-87 zoneNew FeaturesThe pandarens are the new race.The female model isn't done yet.At level 10, you will get to choose between horde and alliance.Pandaren Classes: Hunter, Mage, Monk, Priest, Rogue, Shaman, WarriorRacial - Epicurean - Increase the stat benefits from food by 100%Racial - Gourmand - Cooking skill increased by 15.Racial - Inner Peace - Your rested experience bonus lasts twice as long.Racial - Bouncy - You take 50% less falling damage.Racial - Quaking Palm - You touch a secret pressure point on an enemy target, putting it to sleep for 3 sec.Monk New ClassBrewmaster - Tank specMistweaver - Healer, a healer who can stand up in melee and will let players experience a "new healing style"Windwalker - Melee DPSThis is not a hero class, and it will start at level 1The class is very martial-arts basedLots of monk-only animations, the healer and tanks will have different stances they can stand in, etc ...Monk Races - All of them except Goblin and WorgensMonk EquipmentLeather Armor (Agility or Intellect)They hit a lot with hands and feetThey will need weapons for some finishers: Staves, Fist WeaponsThey will also be able to use 1H Axe and maces, swordsHealers will get off-hands, they don't want healers to use shields.Monk ResourcesChi (energy) slowly regenerates and is only used for your Jab and Roll abilities.Jab generates Light and Dark force, which are used for everything else. Some finishing move uses dark force, some use the light force.No auto attack! Devs want you to have this street fighter feel where you punch a lotCataclysm TalentsPro - The level 10 specs were really nice and gave you a role early in the game, definitely a keeper.Pro - Removing junk from the talent trees was also a very good move.Pro - Having some kind of choices for optional skills/subspecs worked out pretty well.Con - You had a risk of "skipping" important talentsCon - There wasn't enough junk removedCon - There wasn't enough choices, you might have a different final talent point than another combat rogue but it just wasn't enough. The cookie cutter build still persists.Con - No enough customization, no true hybridization (Using a little bit of 2 different trees)Con - Players got grumpyTalent System 2.0The talent system is gone!
