A new round of updated
PTR patch notes have been released this afternoon for
patch 3.3. There's only one update, but it's a large and important one for the folks on the PTR:
- General: Halls of Reflection in Icecrown Citadel available for testing. All three wings of the 5-player dungeon are currently available for testing.
Halls of Reflection is the third and final wing of the 5-man dungeons opening up in Patch 3.3. These dungeons, including the Pit of Saron and the Forge of Souls will offer the best 5-man loot currently available in the game. When they're combined with the new dungeon matchmaking system, everyone should be quite happy to run them as often as they want.
We'll have more information on the dungeon once the PTR come back up later today.
Patch 3.3 is the last major patch of
Wrath of the Lich King. With the new Icecrown Citadel 5-man dungeons and 10/25-man raid arriving soon, patch 3.3 will deal the final blow to Arthas.
WoW.com's Guide to Patch 3.3 will keep you updated with all the latest patch news.

Musashi Blaker Nov 11th 2009 3:55PM
Finally!

HURRAH
I can finish Quel'Delar now on my PTR Premade.
Now only if the damned servers were up.

Banic Rhys Nov 11th 2009 4:47PM
What do you want?
Malenx Nov 11th 2009 3:59PM
Anyone have a link to the alternate weapons that the Quel'Delar can be traded in for?
Eamara Nov 11th 2009 4:27PM
Not yet. Won't be long though I assume, if the Quel'Delar questline can be finished soon.
Leviathon Nov 11th 2009 4:33PM
By looking at the datamined quest we found out there are 3 weapons you get to choose from if you can't use the sword.
They are:
MH caster mace (dps/healer)
1H agility DPS mace
2H agility DPS mace

Anyone know what ilvl gear this will drop, or has it not been released yet?
Heii Nov 11th 2009 4:13PM
Says on the main website, but, I'll share here;
All three Icecrown 5 Mans drop ilevel 219 on normal, and 232 on heroic.
Hendrata Nov 11th 2009 4:39PM
I thought it was 232 on normal and 245 on heroic?
Banic Rhys Nov 11th 2009 4:44PM
I did too.
uncaringbear Nov 11th 2009 5:36PM
Yes, it's ilvl 219 on regular mode and 232 on heroic mode. There is a link to the source here:
http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/underdev/3p3/icecrown.xml
This means that the shiny 245 gear that you currently have will not be replaced by anything in the new 5 man. If you've been saving up your triumph badges, you might as well start buying those 245 items from the vendor.

Man, 3.3 is coming along fast! These 5-mans have been tons of fun, here's to hoping HoR continues the trend.
Didnt they change the cost of epic flying on the PTR today as well? 1500g?
Malenx Nov 11th 2009 4:37PM
Oh man, if that change would stay in game and not just be here for testing, I would be a happy wow'r.
I'm too addicted to alts to collect enough for my epic. :(
Xikem Nov 11th 2009 4:44PM
please let this be true :( im too poor to get epic flyer
Adam Holisky Nov 11th 2009 5:07PM
....
source?
Venfelder Nov 11th 2009 5:35PM
I thought I had read that the change was expected, if not this week, then with 3.3 in general. I'd guess it was here on WoW.com that I read it, but perhaps it was foresight, conjecture, wishful thinking on a posters' part? I'm also guessing that means its not an imminent change?
Not that I care about the change, HoR is fine with me for this push. =)

I don't think I've heard of this anywhere? Seeing as how you can get the faction rep discount (Stormwind for Ally, Orgimmar for Horde) now, I really don't see them dropping the price much more.
Could be wrong though.
Sargenus Nov 12th 2009 1:59AM
...If that does make it to live. I'm gonna rage! I JUST bought my Lock epic flight. -.-
