Yeah, I was thinking it should go live with 5.0 along with removal of guild xp cap but couldn't remember back to Cata or Lich launches. So pretty much should only have to level one more team under the old xp rates and then have the last 4 under the new....hoping anyway as that would mean I'll def have all classes at 85 in time for MoP if that's the situationQuote:

For people that have only bought wow vanilla or BC, they can roll worgen/goblins now too. This is for people who are just starting out and dont want to buy every single xpac before trying out the game a bit.Quote:

I just have a few toons doing the run through Northrend (started last night, should be there in the next few days, and then will have one full team of 5 to get to 85 before Sept. 25!
No, there is no Blizzard confirmation as of right now; but the experience numbers were just recently changed on the beta.Quote:

Do you have questions or comments about currencies in World of Warcraft? Please let us know in this discussion thread.
With no JP cap after August 28th, are people going to be grinding as much JP as possible before going into MOP?
I've read that the JP gear will actually have a lower iLvl value then what drops in the heroic dungeons :rolleyes: As per this link:
http://www.wowhead.com/news=205366/m...-news-round-up
So real roughly you'd need 15k jp to purchase at least the pieces listed in this thread once you hit honored and lvl 90. Ouch, so much for leveling up another team before MoP... I'm going to be grinding instances :p
You won't be able to farm up a massive amount of points for MoP. The caps are going to be re-enabled and anything over the cap will be converted to money. It will be at 35 silver per point. This is what is happening to honour points anyway, I assume it will be the same for JusticeQuote:
