Everything confirmed from MMO-Champion's leak except for Thrall being the new Guardian (which was the biggest lore issue, IMO) and Gnomeragan being re-taken. I, for one, and pretty excited about the new expansion. I wonder what the "Path of Titans" deal will be all about and how Guild Progression will work. Very interesting.

the trailer kicked my ass hard, I might dabble in a new race depending on racials.. a new race or class combo is always a great way to have fun with new profression

I like that there's going to be more raids and Uldum finally. Also prepare for huge influx of furries, sigh. Hopefully they stick to RP servers and deeprun tram?

My hope is that Path of the Titans is a something that rewards people for learning to play their class properly and understanding it. WoW has been terrible for that for a long time.

Christ on a cracker, with Diablo III, SC II and more WoW raids than before added... Blizzard is going to destroy productivity everywhere

Free stream of Blizzcon.

Guild Advancement:
1) Guild talent trees => Cheaper repairs, mass resurrection after wipes, etc.
2) 20 Guild levels

Neat-o.

Path of Titans:
1) Not limited by class.
2) New abilities here since the talent trees aren't having any talents added in.
3) Mastery System: As you input talents, you get more direct benefits (i.e. increased damage, crit chances, etc.)

Can travel from the new zones to Deepholm, the elemental plane of earth and Deathwing's domain. Serves as hub for all the new 80-85 leveling zones (Uldum, Twilight Highlands (Grim Batol), Mt. Hyjal, Vashjir) via portals. Twilight's Hammer now serves Deathwing and there is a Temple of Earth in the center.

Sunken City of Vash'jir - has Abyssal Maw, the elemental plane of water - with a few instances there as well as others to be added. Underwater fighting on sea floor is just like land fighting but you can swim up whenever, apparently. Not sure how this will be in game, though there will be underwater mounts which are flying speed mounts just underwater.

Uldum will have at least 2 dungeons. Temples of the Titans are there, and a machine that kept the zone hidden was destroyed in the Cataclysm. Rumored to hold a "super secret weapon" and part of a main quest chain here. Tol'vir is a new race of "stone-like cat people" that you will meet in Uldum.

Mt. Hyjal is under siege by Ragnaros from the elemental plane of fire in order to burn the World Tree. Malfurion Stormrage has woken from the Emerald Dream and the armies of Cenarius are there to defend the World Tree with our help. Darkwhisper Gorge (from Winterspring) is now taken over by Twilight's Hammer and is a part of the new Mt. Hyjal zone.

Twilight Highlands has Grim Batol, which has been sheared in half. Grim Batol is now the home base of Twilight's Hammer. Two new port towns (Horde/Alliance) will be in the zone. The red dragonflight has been pushed back into the Twilight Highlands which will be a major source of quests. The Twilight Dragonflight is a new flight to be fought in the zone.
