5.4 PTR Discussion

[MiRai]

Some interesting changes coming in 5.4:

Virtual Realms are coming, which will essentially merge realms. This will allow you to keep playing on your current realm, but trade with and do arenas, raids, and dungeons with people in your realm group, as well as use a merged Auction House.

All permanent item enhancements provided by Enchanting, Engineering, Leatherworking, Tailoring, and various vendors and quests are now able to be applied to items of any level. The effects of these enchantments will be scaled down to the level of the player using the item.

I'm not going to link the initially data-mined class changes and tier bonuses because it's very early and they're subject to change at a moment's notice. Anyone interested in that stuff should seek out the constant updates on their favorite data-mining news site; but feel free to discuss any of that information here if you'd like.

Patch 5.4 is live -- Thread closed.
