Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today.
I think every last one of you will want me to jump straight to answering this first question, so I'll ditch the clever intro today.
Yurgen asked:
Some sites are saying patch 4.3 will release November 29th, some sites are saying December 6th. Which is it??
Season 10 of Arenas and Rated Battlegrounds will be coming to an end as early as next Tuesday, Nov. 15. Usually, although not always, this means that a major content patch is about two weeks away from the date the season ends.
When the season ends, any conquest points will be converted to honor points. If during the conversion you end up with more honor points than the 4,000-point cap allows, you won't be able to earn any more honor points until you get yourself below the cap. If you wait approximately one additional week for Season 11 to start, then any honor points above the 4,000 point cap will be converted into 35 silver per point.
Every week, just at the start of the weekend, we catch up with the WoW Insider staff and ask them, "What are youplaying this week?" -- otherwise known as WRUP. Join us to see what we're up to in and out of game, and catch us in the comments to let us know what you're playing, too!
Welcome to this week's What aRe yoU Playing, brought to you by Catertainment! And you're in for quite a treat -- today's column is the cat's meow!
Item! What has got those cool cats drawn to the Firelands like it was filled with catnip? Why, I'd be willing to bet it's Fandral's Flamescythe, the hot new Firelands weapon that turns kitty druids into flaming kitty druids! Those pesky hunters may want to get their paws on it, but giving it to them -- why, that'd be a cat-astrophe!
Item! What WoW Insider cat lover just had his favority pussy groomed? Why, it's Mat McCurley, who reports his cat's hot new "do" is purrfect!
That's all our items for today, but don't you all go taking a cat nap, now! We've still got WRUPing to do! This week's bonus question: "When do you expect patch 4.3 to come out, and what kind of raid or 5-man instance do you expect it to have?"
