WoW Insider has the latest on the Mists of Pandaria!

The Queue: Bossasaurus

Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Mike Sacco will be your host today.

"The Dinosaucers are leaving, Bossasaurus!" has become a new catchphrase of choice at my day job.

bedefiant asked:

Is Bliz going to add all old raids to LFR? Some people would ask why...but I ask, why not? Let the people decide! I wouldn't care to sit in a queue for 4 hours waiting for an old raid to come together! It would be fun!

The devs have said that they'd like to add old raids to the Raid Finder, but that the development focus will always be on new content first, so there's no real ETA on it.

NicholasMcLaughlin asked:

When would be a good time to preorder a collectors edition for MOP?

Whenever Blizzard announces it! Alternatively, just walk into a Best Buy or Wal-Mart the day MoP comes out, and walk out with a collector's edition. My local Best Buy still has Cataclysm CEs.

coz_burke asked:

Worgen can't be monks, yet why are there animations for Spinning Kick, Fists of Fury and Mediate on Wowheads item viwer (At least for the female Worgen)? To excited about the possibility to check properly xD

Probably for the same reasons that every piece of armor, even class-specific stuff, is modeled for every race: a.) just in case they change their minds, and b.) so stuff like Potion of Illusion and other copycat effects are able to actually work as intended.

darthinvader asked:

For the past few days the page hasn't been loading properly. I haven't changed anything, and it only happens here. Article and the background images don't load. Is it just me?

We had some changes in our stylesheet to optimize site loading (the site should now load much, much faster), including removing our background image and some other stuff, but that's actually unrelated to the invisible article images. That was an issue resolved by our web team as of last night (though let us know if you continue to experience it).

serge192 asked:

Before every expansion there is a major patch, like 4.0.1, 3.0.2, and so on. These patches usually have huge things advertised in the expansion, but affect everyone, like these are the patches that alter talents and stuff. How long before the actual expansion releases do these patches occur? A week, a month? Maybe it depends on the xpac?

Historically, the pre-expansion patches happen about a month before the expansion comes out. Wrath's patch was a month before, but Cataclysm's was almost two months before.

JessicaHealy asked:

Why does Tyrande have this...I dunno Eastern European (?) accent, when the other lore night elf characters talk all Americany? I play Horde, so maybe this is some weird night elf gender thing I don't know about...?

There's no excuse. It's awful and should never have happened. Illidan and Malfurion and Tyrande all lived in Suramar, and the two dudes talk like Americans and Tyrande talks like who even knows what. Horrible. There are actually a lot of weird goofs in Well of Eternity, from Tyrande's voice to her hair color to Azshara's skin color and lots of others.
