Lots of WoW news today! Another build is being pushed to the beta servers, opening the Spires of Arakk and Nagrand zones. This means all leveling zones will be open. The lvl cap will be bumped to lvl 100!

@mumper @oliviadgrace all of our zones are being worked on and bug fixed concurrently, so you’ll see new/fixed things everywhere

Sadly this also means the characters are being wiped again!
EDIT: Apologies for any confusion; characters are being wiped from the beta realms today.
Lost Isles (PvE) is being renamed to Beta Leveling Realm 01
Gilneas (PvP) is being renamed to Beta Leveling Realm 02
Mekkatorque (PvP) is being renamed to Level 100 PvP
As a result of the rename, some interface settings (such as combat log filters, or add-on configurations) may be lost, and will need to be reconfigured.
The logo for the Warcraft movie was shown today at the San Diego Comic Con!
It was also explained on twitter today that the enchanting garrison building will allow the changing of the visual effect of your enchants, which is effectively enchant transmogrification!
.@HideEnchants Enchanter garrison building allows you to trade WoD enchants for the same effect with a different visual (including none).

@AmarielleEU If we made that particular visual available, yes.

@ShaofHappiness Yeah that’s the idea here, we’ll try to pick some obnoxious ones and some subtle ones.
