Armory going down for Wrath updates
Crygil posted early this morning that the Armory will be going down at 6 a.m. PST / 9 a.m. EST to prepare it for Wrath of the Lich King. The Armory will be down for approximately eight hours.He doesn't go into specifics about what will be updated, but we have some good guesses at what we could see included:
- Achievement listings
- Wrath of the Lich King items
- New reputations
- Faster character data updates
means that you have to log into your character to repopulate the Armory information on it. This is important if you have seldom played alts yet still refer to the armory data, or if you are currently applying to a guild that requires armory information.
We'll have more concrete information on what this update brings after it's complete, sometime around 2 p.m. PST.

All EU realms are down for extended maintenance is this related?

Guess so.
And EU forums are down as well.
There were loads of whine on the forums, I guess It was do(w)ne to prevent more :P

I dont now why people moan there down for them to make the game better i wish people would just stop moaning about it lol :)

What's really weird is that when i tried to log on instead of getting the usual EU server-language selection, English, French, German and Spanish, I get one option: 'Development'. hmm

That's quite often there during maintenance. Nothing unusual.

Now if only armory would only go down for scheduled maintenance, and not just randomly all the time on a whim :P

Me too... I specced Shadow with my priest when 3.0.2 came out. Then later that night I specced back holy (which is my normal spec). Ever since then, my armory has shown my spec as Shadow. Kept having ppl PST me asking why I was shadow spec and wearing Primal Mooncloth gear....

The Armory was down last night at 9 o'clock when I tried to check it. The front page of it was up, but no characters could be called up.
