Patch 1.11: Today!

Today's maintenance will be extended by two hours in order to apply patch 1.11. However, instead of pushing maintenance time two hours later (to 1:00PM PDT) they're starting maintenance two hours earlier (at 3:00AM PDT). I don't know about you, but I can't wait to jump online and dive into the new scourge invasion content with my real characters. Not to mention the rest of the patch - mage changes, shaman changes, Naxxramas, updated PvP armor, new items for Argent Dawn & Cenarion Circle reputations, a legendary caster item, keyrings (yay!), new flightpaths (Ratchet and Un'Goro, primarily), debuff prioritization, and probably a number of other changes that have slipped my mind. Hopefully the patching process will go as smoothly as possible and let us get back to playing.Filed under: Patches, Realm Status, News items

Oh, it was not like that already in the US?
Anyway, I can't wait at last redoing all my interface that has been completly broken since a week ago :)

Very little of this stuff matters to me, since my main's only level 45. The mage changes, though, greatly interest me, since my second-most-important charector is a mage.

Sweet! I can't wait for that UnGoro flight path! My main is now spending a bit of time there. :P

@chris
A new patch will break almost all of your addons. I wouldn't hold your breath.

I can not wait to own the hell out of the invasion forces with my 60 epic mage.

For those in the EU, this patch will come out on Wednesday, during regular maintenance.

Un'Goro is uninhabited, the swamps and volcano having produced a steamy climate resulting in lush vegetation and assorted monsters, attracting brave explorers into this remote and fascinating area. How can there suddenly be a flight path there?

Patch day maintenance has always been extended by two hours earlier, not later. If the servers are still down after 11:00 AM, that's Blizzard's fault, but the quoted time has always been 3-11 rather than 5-11.

You can think of a flight path at Un'Goro this way. An enterprising and forward thinking dwarf or tauren (or whatever race) takes note of the increased traffic to and from Un'Goro. This is an opportunity from these flight path masters to make money, so they set up shop with a bunch of flying thingees.
Just like a remote city in Montana with nothing but a cattle ranch, for example, has an attraction (the largest cow in the world maybe) that brings in droves of people. United Airlines seeing all this traffic and potential profit decides to build an airport and starts flights.
