That's up to us to decide. I'm sure Blizzard can keep pumping out expansions as long as they have a player base to enjoy them.

I think I remember that there was a total of 5 planned expansions, with Cataclysm being the third.

IF it ever gets to be like SWG, a deserted wasteland of ca ca....well, cata might be the last...

I'm just joking. Everyone knows Cataclysm is going to ROCK EVERYONE'S SOCKS OFF...

Seriously, this xpac will bring the OLD SCHOOL old school people back...like the guilds that broke up due to ZG (pre-Blood nerf) or old C'thun...

Especially when people hear BWL is making a level 85 come back...someone will reactivate their accounts...

Just some comments about comments:

1) The "five expansions" thing might be from the old, debunked, and constantly updated "leaked list of expansions" that makes the rounds when rumours/announcements of a new expansion come up. We were gonna be getting Worgen with Pandaren in the 4th "Elemental Planes" expansion. /rolleyes

2) Not sure BWL is coming back. They said Nefarian is coming back, and that Blackrock Spire is getting love, which could mean many things. No, being decapitated doesn't dismiss an all new come-back. Arugal can back me up on this one.

Yes, but bear in mind that the "new" BWL might just turn into another version of "new" Naxx, i.e. a cakewalk as soon as you hit 85 even for new players. Now as long as there's other (preferably new) content to try this is fine, I just don't want to be left with the pre-Ulduar raiding debacle that WotLK was hit with for 5 months.

@loop_not_defined:

If I recall, we do visit the Elemental Planes in Cata. Deepholme being the plane of earth, for the Black Dragonflight (like one Mr. Deathwing). Skywall being the plane of air or something, home to harpies and a possible raid that I think was mentioned at BlizzCon '09. Sulfuras being the fire plane, home to a pissed off and very much awake Ragnaros. The Emerald Dream is, of course, where Ysera is hanging out and is only rumored to be featured somewhat in Cata, but it really isn't an elemental plane. Lastly, there is the Abyssal Maw, plane of water where Queen Ashzara is chilling it up with the rest of her naga.

Earth, fire, wind, and water. Only plane missing is HEART!

Was the cost of repairs nerfed a little? I used to pay ~10g a death and now it appears to be down to about 7 or 8g a death.

@Avan

The most recent "leaked expansions" list put the Elemental Planes as the 4th expansion (Cataclysm is 3rd), listed Worgen and Pandaren "home worlds" (no home worlds in Cata), and featured the Planes as the *sole* content (as opposed to retooling Azeroth).

I mentioned the Planes in my last post because they AREN'T coming in the 4th expansion. ;)

They said they want to go 10 more years on this game's core engine alone.

Take that as you will.

The date "leaked expansions" list was apparently leaked gets earlier and earlier. Most people claim it was leaked during vanilla WoW, with one person saying no later than 2003.
One thing all the posts have in common is they were all published after Wrath was announced, and the list, "amazingly", has only got the basic details of the expansions that were announced before the list first surfaced correct.
I don't know about you, but this makes the validity of the list questionable.

Tack "to me" on the end of my post in your heads while reading it, please >_>

@Avan

Heard that when we kill deathwing the demon heart opens a portal to the mystical heart plane which is the center of a world event that kicks off the new expansion: WoW attack of the fuzzy carebears which you kill by /insulting them

"Are mobs tougher to tank now in 3.3? They seem to be harder to position."
There was a bug with positioning just as patch 3.3 came out, but that was hotfixed a couple days later. Everything should be fine now, and I haven't noticed any troubles in my daily heroic tanking.

I disagree. As a bear tank I have a terrible time getting whatever I'm tanking to not run through me and start trimming my tail fur. On my DK it's no issue, the mobs do what I need them too. I think it may just be a Druid bug.
